We are looking back at our YNS Faves from 2020. Over 6 days, the team is sharing their favorite creations or stamp/die sets from the year.

Day Four belongs to Laura Nehring and Sam Olden.

Laura made 2 selections, up first is her favorite card from the year featuring Cheeky Monkey. This one is guaranteed to send a SMILE!

Next is her favorite project, a tag topping one of the hottest items of 2020…toilet paper!

Now on to Sam’s faves. She wrote:

I had a tough time choosing which was my favourite from the year. Oh so many new goodies to enjoy playing with, it was tough to narrow it down. I think I’m going with the Coffee Characters stamp set and this set of cards that I made. 

First off, I think this is the perfect stamp set for soooo many coffee lovers out there; the images are so fun and sentiments match perfectly and work for so many occasions. Each of the stamp characters stands out on its own which is what gave me the inspiration for creating a set of coffee cards. Each card focuses on a different character. I love how fun and bright the cards turned out. I know we all have a friend who would love to get a set of coffee cards. 

Tomorrow we have Day Five with Karen and Meghan!

Happy Stamping!

2020 was not an easy year. To feel a little better we need to put a smile on our faces even in this difficult time. The Pigs Can Fly stamp set always put a smile on my face and this is the reason that is my favorite! I hope that 2021 will be a great year and we can get back to our normal life.

I wish you all a very Happy New Year!

From Julie:

This year, one of my favorite sets was Tweet Spring Birds. With so much uncertainty in the world, I sent out many cards in hopes of spreading smiles. I found this to be the perfect set to create a card to just send a ‘hi’ or ‘pick me up’ to those near and far. It is so easy to create scenes with this set. I may not be the biggest fan of birds in real life, {flying birds have scary wings}, but the birds in this stamp set are full of whimsy and fun.

What will tomorrow bring with Sam and Laura’s faves?

Happy Stamping!

Today, Kulbir Kirkland is sharing her favorite cards from 2020.

From Kulbir:

I had such a hard time choosing YNS favourites for 2020. I went with 2 cards that I made multiples of.

The cheeky  monkey is just hilarious and always makes me smile. I made about 10 of these cards to send to some friends that needed a smile during this crazy year. 

The other card I chose was the one made with the Coffee Characters set.  Being as I am a huge coffee lover, this stamp is at the top of my list of faves. All the characters are just so so cute. 

Tomorrow, we have faves from Noga and Julie. Any guesses on what they will share?

Happy Stamping!

2020 has been a tough year. We are looking back on the year in one area that is full of joy, stamping! Over 6 days, the team is sharing their favorite YNS creation or YNS stamp and die sets from 2020.

Kendra Sand is kicking off the series with new creations made with her favorite set from the year, Snowflake Kisses.

From Kendra: I had such a hard time picking a favorite from the year!!  I love soooooo many of YNS’s cute products. I decided to create two new projects using one of my favorite new sets from this year!  I love cute snowmen/women, so I instantly fell in LOVE with the new Snowflake Kisses stamp set!!

Lots of snow, snowflakes, and smiles!

Happy Stamping!

Kerri Michaud is continuing the sweet trend, with paper milk and cookies. Or I should write a milk carton decorated with cookies!

Kerri fashions the carton as a gingerbread house with a scalloped roof. The gingerbread cookies are created with the Holiday Cookies stamp set.

What type of cookies do you leave out for Santa on Christmas Eve?

Happy Stamping!

Kendra Sand is sharing sweetness today! On a card, of course!

Kendra starts off with a little baking, with the Sweet Holiday Cookies stamp set.

Then she fills the stockings!

There may be lots of white, but the colors on Kendra’s cards shine. Using white as the background lets the stamped and colored images pop.

What did you stamp today for the holidays?

Happy Stamping!

The Christmas inspiration continues today, with Karen Aicken sharing how to make a fairly quick and easy Christmas card. This card is perfect for those that don’t enjoy colouring or want to mass produce a simple card design.

Check it out…Karen’s card uses the Stitched Rectangle Frame die set that was featured as one of Jennifer McGuire’s favorite dies from 2020!  

Of course we also need to check out the inside of Karen’s card…

Don’t you love the way Karen stamped the sentiment?! The red pops and looks great against the stamped house.

Happy Stamping!

Cute Christmas paper crafting inspiration continues on the YNS blog today.

Sue Taylor-Hill sets one of the mice from Holiday Hugs against a distressed inked circle of red.

All that red is festive and fun!
