Your Next Stamp Coffee Cart Spotlight!

Kerri 12:00 AM 0 Comments

Hello! Today we are shining a spotlight and the set Coffee Cart! This set is currently on sale for almost half off, so take advantage while you can!

I have really gotten into pottery lately, and mugs are one of my favorite things to make, so I thought it would be fun to make a cute tag for one of my cute mugs:)

I used the Cool Tag Four Die Set as my base, and then used this adorable bunny from the Coffee Cart Stamp Set for my image. I stamped him with Black Olive Ink, colored with Copics, and cut him out with the coordinating Coffee Cart Die Set (which is also almost half off!!!) I added a strip of dp from the YNS Just For Fun 6x6 Paper Pad and had him peek out over the top. I stamped the sentiment directly on the tag and it was complete!

Thanks for stopping by and have a wonderful week!

Kerri 2:12 AM 0 Comments

Hello! I'm sharing an extra project today using one of the new release stamp sets-Happy Cat! I just think he is adorable!!! I love this set because you can choose from several different images to have this cutie hold up, and today I chose the fun cake image:) I stamped my images with Black Olive Ink and colored with Copic markers. I then cut them out with the coordinating Happy Cat Die Set.

For the background, I used the Confetti Panel Die as a stencil to sponge the background confetti, and then cut out the circle with the Circles Die Set. I sponged the circle while keeping the circle in the die which gives the white edge. Finally, I framed the cute scene with a Stitched Rectangle Frames Die. I really love how it came out and I hope it gives you some inspiration!

Your Next Stamp Spring Series Day Three!

Kerri 12:00 AM 0 Comments

Hello! We are showcasing some of the Spring YNS stamp sets this week, and I chose the adorable All Aboard Bunch of Happiness stamp set to work with. I decided to create a sweet spring themed birthday tag for my project. I just love all these darling images, and thought it would be fun to layer them together! It also shows their versatility because you don't always have to use the All Aboard train carts with these images:)

I stamped each image with Black Olive Ink and colored with Copic markers. I then cut them out with the coordinating All Aboard Bunch of Happiness Die Set. I layered them all on a tag cut with the Cool Tag Six Die Set, and finished it off with some ribbon and twine. It's going to be hard to give this one away, I just love it!

That's it for me! Make sure you stop by the YNS Blog to see the other spring themed projects and have a wonderful Wednesday!

I used the adorable set Latte Happy Vibes for my sweet image and sentiment, and the Latte Happy Vibes Die Set to cut it out. I simply sponged the background with Tea Dye Distress Oxide Ink and splattered with some water and some brown watercolor paint. I used the MFTWSC532 for my layout.
