YNS Blog Hop

Welcome to the YNS Holiday Preview Party Hop!

I am so pleased to have been asked to participate and am tickled pink with the new images!

There are 8 new digital images by the talented

Penny & Laurence of Omnia Designs!

Would you like to earn an EXCLUSIVE FREE YNS digi stamp!?

The party begins on Nicole's blog where you will pick up your first letter to build a phrase, which will enable you to get an EXCLUSIVE FREE digi from YNS.

There will also be 10 randomly selected winners from the comments that will each WIN ONE FREE DIGI of their choice. 

Please HOP to Nicole's blog for more details.

I have used the cute Teddie's stocking for my card today, I tried to go a little more rustic so this could be used for either a boy or a girl. I have colored the fur with copics then added a thin layer of prisma pencil over top to smooth out the texture a bit. 

If you have been hopping along and building your phrase…

The next letter you will need is:

Your next hop is the wonderful Tracy and a full list of all the participants is at the bottom of the post.

Winners will be posted at our online Facebook Release party, December 1^st @ 7:00pm EST on the Your Next Stamp Facebook fan page.

Winners will also be posted on the YNS blog.

We would love to have you join us at our Facebook Release Party,

Would you like MORE chances to win our awesome Kraftin Kimmie stamps? We've created a fun new SHARE to WIN promotion called WONDERFUL WEDNESDAYS!!! Wanna play? Welcome to our last Wonderful Wednesday challenge for November!!

Each Wednesday (except on release preview weeks) we are posting some creations by our fabulous Krafty Girls and we're asking YOU to share your Kraftin' Kimmie kreations here for a chance to WIN!! There are three chances to enter for each month of Wonderful Wednesdays...... but this is the last one for November!! And as always....it's ANYTHING GOES!!...
Your submission must use at least one Kraftin Kimmie stamps but can be any theme, any style, any design and it can be a card, a scrapbook page, an altered item....you name it!! It must be a NEW creation (so you can't submit something you made last year...haha!) and you can enter every week for a chance to win and at the end of the month, we'll draw a winner for a Kraftin' Kimmie Prize Pack!!! What do you think.....wanna WIN??

This week I have made a simple little notebook for my husband. I actually made a larger one with a pocket and was gonna put "Honey Do List" on the front but thought that might be pushing it with him! So I just made a small notebook for him to use for lists as we have tablets thru our entire home, getting older and all that I guess! This cutie pie is from our latest release and is part of the Together is Better set. 

Sorry, I forgot to keep track of my copics this time, if you need to know I am sure I could make a reasonable guess for you. 

**Please note that you are more than welcome to combine this Share to Win challenge with other challenges, BUT not our regular weekly challenges. This must be a new and different creation than anything you create for our Saturday challenges.

Let it snow!

I am okay with this title for a bit, I love me some snow around the holidays but then I could go right into spring! So if you haven't guessed it, our challenge this week at Kraftin Kimmie's is "Let it Snow" and our hostess with the mostest is Deborah who makes some beautiful cards if I do say so myself!

I have used one of our newer images, this is You're so Cool and I love everyone of the images in this set but hadn't colored this one up yet.

It doesn't have quite as much contrast with the papers and embellies as I like but it works!

Anything but a card!

Happy Thursday everyone! Today I have an altered project for the challenge this week at Mo's Digital Pencil challenge blog which is "Anything but a card" and our hostess this week is the lovely Cathy.

I have made a tissue box cover for our challenge and have it sitting on my desk at work. Makes me happy.

My image is Nurse, quite appropriate don't ya think? I only decorated the front with an image and flowers but it does have the dp on the other sides and top.
