Your Next Stamp September Release Hop


Hello everyone, it's once again time for another amazing release at YOUR NEXT STAMP. You are going to love our FABULOUS September New Release Blog Hop!

As the weather transitions to crisp mornings and the leaves start to fall from the trees, my fellow DT members and I have been hard at work creating fabulous fall themed inspiration for you! We have a fun September lineup of stamps and dies for you this month. We know you are going to FALL in love with the new dies and our HARVEST CHARACTERS!!! If you love interactive cards, we have the perfect dies for you! Want to try splattering ink, but worried that it will look messy? Have no fear, our INK SPLATTER stamp will solve that! Everything is available now in the YNS store.

Today's hop begins on PEGGY'S blog and if you've been hopping along, you should have come from our fabulous Guest Designer MAUREEN'S blog. Make sure you hop around to all of the blogs featured in the list below. You will find lots of inspiration using these new products. Leave a comment on all of the blogs and you will have a chance to WIN a $20.00 YNS gift certificate. The lucky winners will be announced on the Your Next Stamp Blog September 18th.

For my first project I used the fun GOBBLE GOBBLE stamp. This adorable image also has a matching die.


I kept my card design simple and used circle dies to create a window for my cute turkey. I included one of the sets sentiments and added a few delicious GUM DROPS (apricot). To create depth to my turkey I stamped the image twice. I coloured the tail feathers in the back ground layer. Then coloured the body on the second image, fussy cutting and adhering the top layer with dimensional adhesive.


Inside my card I stamped my turkey image and added additional sentiments from this set.


For my second project I created a card that is not my usual style. Why is that you ask?

No coloured images! I know crazy right? I do surprise myself once in a while.

For this card I used the SPOOKTACULAR sentiment set called GHOSTLY GREETING and the new amazing CHEVRON DIE.


On the outside of my card I worked with the negative space created by the die. I added a pop of green card stock that I covered in Glitter Ritz micro fine glitter. My die cut layer is adhered to the card with dimensional adhesive.  On this card I used the black GUMDROPS.

Inside my card I used the chevron die cut on the green card stock which I again covered with glitter. How did I do this you ask? Run the pieces through your Xyron Sticker maker, cover with glitter, shake off the excess and burnish the glitter into the paper well and voila!

To finish off, I added an additional sentiment and sweet spider from the new HALLOWEEN CUTIES  set.


You may have read that YNS is getting ready to launch a NEW website in October and discontinuing the Digital Stamps line. We'll also be retiring plenty of stamps so NOW is the time to stock up on your WISH LIST! Check out all of the stamps that are retiring here.
