Your Next Stamp Birthday Blog Hop

Happy Birthday YNS !

Your Next Stamp is turning ONE

The YNS Starlets are being joined by some fabulous friends (I'm a fab friend) for this hop, and together we are showcasing some fantastic new release stamps as well as some favorites! These new stamps are available to buy from today from the Your Next Stamp website, along with all your YNS favorites.

If you'd like to participate in the hop and you didn't arrive here from Kerri Michaud's blog, please CLICK HERE to return to the start of the hop at Karen's blog, as I'm sure you don't want to miss out on all the fun we have for you today!

The hop starts RIGHT NOW and ends on Wednesday August 11th at midnight (EST).

We have TWO grand prizes for you to win.

Two lucky winners will be drawn at random to each receive a $25 gift certificate to spend on YNS stamps! Yes I said $25 dollars. WOW! Seeing as how this prize is so fantastic, your going to have to put in a little work to enter, LOL! Each Starlet and Guest Starlet have a letter hiding in their blog post. All you need to do is gather these letters, rearrange them to form a 3-word phrase, and then email this phrase to Karen. All correct entries will be entered into the grand prize draw. So make sure you hop around every blog and remember to leave a comment at every stop too.
