YNS Surprise Blog Hop- Scrapfest

9:00 AM | Posted by Chris Olsen, Glowbug | | Edit Post

Welcome to the Your Next Stamp SURPRISE BLOG HOP!

If you didn't arrive here from Wendy's blog, please CLICK HERE to return to the start of the hop at the Karen's blog and begin hopping!

The hop starts today (Friday, October 15th at 9:00 EST) and ends on Sunday, October 17th at midnight (EST).

So what's this surprise hop about? Well....if you've popped by any of the Your Next Stamps DT's blogs this week, you may have read our posts about today's very special hop showcasing a VERY special, NEW and EXCLUSIVE Your Next Stamp stamp! The DT have been 'in the know' about a secret project involving Your Next Stamp and ScrapFest for a little while, and now the day has finally come when we can officially announce the proud news that Karen was approached by Lisa (owner of ScrapFest in Ontario) to design an exclusive Your Next Stamp stamp for this autumn's ScrapFest (15-16 October 2010) - YAY!! And here is the creation I made with this adorable and fun image!!!

... here is the inside. The sentiment is so fun and one I typed after I received a pad which used this saying on it from my dear friend Grace. Oh how true. I colored my image with copics and used paper from Basic Grey Green At Heart. The image is framed with Lacey circles from Spellbinders.

This stamp will be available to buy from the Your Next Stamp booth at ScrapFest Ontario, but fear not if you can't get along to ScrapFest as Karen is also selling this fabulous stamp in the YNS online store!! IMPORTANT: This stamp will only be available to buy online for the duration of ScrapFest, so do not delay in placing your order! As it is only available for a very limited time, Karen is offering the stamp at a very special price of $6 with FREE SHIPPING!! (*NB Free shipping only applies to the ScrapFest stamp - if you include other items in your order, you will be charged shipping accordingly).
If you do plan to pop along to ScrapFest this weekend, don't forget to print out this voucher and take it along to the YNS booth to receive 10% off your purchase of YNS stamps:

(Click on the voucher to open it in new window ready for printing)
The next stop on the hop is the sweet and talented Maureen's blog. Be sure to complete the hop as we have a prize draw at Simonne's blog where you can enter to win one of these gorgeous and exclusive YNS ScrapFest stamps. [If you purchase one of these stamps and then find you are the lucky winner of the prize draw, you will be given a $6 gift certificate to spend at the store instead.] To enter, please leave your details in the InLinkz widget below. The lucky winner will be randomly chosen on Monday October 18th.

Thanks for hopping with us today!

Just a reminder, my birthday blog candy for my followers ends TODAY, Friday, at midnight. The winner will be announced next Monday. I really would love one of my daily or faithful followers to win it. If you have not yet signed up for it, click here.
