Happy birthday to you, happy birthday to you, happy birthday to Your Next Stamp, happy birthday to you!!!!
This month is a great month for birthday celebrations! I celebrated my birthday earlier this week and now we are celebrating the 8th birthday for Your Next Stamp! It's also time to share the new August released stamps and dies, so there are a lot of reason to be happy and celebrating right now.
Today we have an amazing blog hop to showcase so many fabulous stamps, dies, gumdrops and paper! This month I am re-joining the YNS team as one of the guests for birthday hop celebration. I know, I haven't been away from the team too long, but I couldn't miss out on a great party! Sit back, grab a beverage; an iced caramel macchiato perhaps, and maybe a pen and paper to joint down an item or two or three for your wish list.
Here is a look at my birthday project featuring the Party Pets stamp! I am pretty sure I looked excited eating my birthday cake on Wednesday!
YNS Supplies: Party Pets, Nautical Matte Gumdrops, Birthday Boy Paper, Ink (Black Olive, StoneGray), Scrapworks - Strips die, Stitched Rectangles, Circle die
In celebration of this amazing birthday release, Karen is offer some wonderful deals!
Now a party, just wouldn't be a party without PRIZES and party GAMES!
This month there is an $80 YNS gift certificate up for grabs. Remember to comment on the blogs along this hop! The more blogs you visit and leave a comment for, the greater your chance is to WIN!
Party Game: This month there is a fun game and if you win you could end up with 10 packages of gumdrops! As you are hopping along our blog posts today, remember to count the gumdrops as you go! There will be a link at the end of this hop for you to enter your answer. I used a few of the new Nautical Matte gumdrops on my card above!
Thank you for joining us for our new release BIRTHDAY hop! I hope you found a little inspiration and maybe a few stamps, dies, paper, ink.......that you'd like to add to your YNS collection.
Remember to also come back to the YNS blog on August 9th to check out the next Design Team Dare challenge. I will have another guest card to share there.
Have a great day and happy hopping!
