February Release Blog Hop - Your Next Stamp



Hello!!

It's Blog Hop time with Your Next Stamp's February release!



Did you see all the fun sneak peeks from the DT? What fabulous projects everyone had using this fun release.  I love all the St. Patrick's Day stamps and dies- certainly a holiday I do not have a lot of items for.  And green is my favorite color! Go figure..

For this first card, I made it using the new set of Irish Hello.  This set is so much fun and had coordinating dies to match.






 Speaking of dies, YNS also released some fun Stitching Marks dies that coordinate with the plain circle dies they carry. While you cannot see very well in this card, I did use the stitched circles on the patterned paper from Basic Grey before popping up the pot of gold image on top.  The image was colored in with Copics and topped with some Wink of Stella for some fun sparkle. Here is a close up of that.


The sentiment is from the same set and stamped directly onto the top panel.

For my second card, I had fun using the new Irish Whatnots.  I was going for a little humor of some birthday fun with tipping beer mugs.  Honestly, I am not sure why I went in the direction it is. Why didn't I go from left to right? :) Oh well! Maybe it adds to the humor?






How fun is that beer foam for the tops? Again, the sentiment is stamped  directly onto the panel while the mugs are popped up.

Don't forget to hop along and comment for your chance to win a $20 gift certificate to Your Next Stamp.  And even if you don't win, you can take up this awesome deal of 20% off your order!



Thanks for hopping along! Have a great Sunday!

  30. Super cute cards. I am a St. Paddy's birthday girl and I (surprisingly) have a sister in law who shares my b-day with me. My Mom always said it was hard to get a St. Pat's/birthday card. Not so anymore and that is great for me as I am able to make them for my SIL. So, I am super happy to have found these awesome cards.
