Your Next Stamp - May New Release Blog Hop


The time has come for the May release for Your Next Stamp! There is so much fun packed into this release that I sure hope you were able to take a peek today to see all the creativity the DT has put together.



My first card I am showing is using the new Great Catch set.  This is perfect for Father's Day or just for that fisherman in your life.  I know I made this card with my FIL in mind using some of his favorite colors and this card will be sent for his birthday.


The image was colored in with Copics, but I first colored in the bear so that I could add a little texture to his fur with my colorless blender and a rag.  I attached that to some green cardstock to pop up over the patterned paper by Crate Paper. The card was finished with some of the new frosted glass gumdrops and some twine. A simple and somewhat masculine card for the young birthday boy. :)

For my second card, I am using the new set of Phoebe and Pets. This set is darling and I had a few ideas in mind. But the first one I wanted to do was this using the Mini Film Strip die.


Positioning the strip where I wanted it, I then stamped the images within the frame to be colored in with Copics and then permanently adhering the strip to the cardstock.  The main panel is over some patterned paper from EP, while the sentiment was stamped directly onto the main panel. I finished the look using some of the new shaped gumdrops to show a little love between these cuties!



Don't forget that Karen has a fantastic deal that you will want to jump on! 20% OFF YOUR ENTIRE ORDER!  Now you can purchase everything on your list at a great price.

Thanks so much for hopping by and don't forget to leave a little love as you hop.  You will have a chance to win a $25 gift certificate to the YNS Store.  Who doesn't want that?! Hope you all are having a great weekend!
