YNS New Release Blog Hop

Welcome to the Your Next Stamp January New Release BLOG HOP!  We've got some fabulous new YNS stamps to showcase today! These new stamps are available to buy right now from the Your Next Stamp store along with all your YNS favourites. I am finishing up my guest designer position with this fun hop.  Also  Jen Del Muro will be joining us as a guest for YNS. Can't wait to see what she created!

If you would like to participate in the hop and you didn't arrive here from Simonne's awesome blog, please CLICK HERE to return to the start of the hop at Wendy's blog, as you don't want to miss these fab new releases! The hop starts today January 7, 2011 at 03:00 EST and ends on January 10, 2011 at midnight EST.

As always here at Your Next Stamp, we have a wonderful prize for you to win! One lucky winner will be drawn at random from the links in the linky list to receive a new release stamp package!

You will see that every stop along the hop has a linky list - this is the SAME linky list posted on every blog, so that you can enter the prize draw from any stop (although we hope you will visit all the blogs on today's hop!). The linky will update itself on everyone's blog when a link is entered - how cool is that? Please remember to only enter your name ONCE into the linky list during the hop - you do NOT need to enter your name at every stop and multiple entries will be removed. It's not a requirement for you to comment at every stop along the hop to be eligible to be entered into the prize draw, but the DT would sure love to hear what you think of their new release creations!

Karen is also running some special promotions, so be sure to hop on over to the YNS store once you've finished the hop. There is a fab clearance section, where you can grab a bargain or two, and Karen has also put together some special-priced bundles!!

So onto my blog hop creation! I have used Musical Ethan.  Here is a photo:

I altered this gift box to match my card and filled it with chocolates, hence the sentiment.  Isn't it cute!!? Thanks, Crystal! ;)  I got my music note brads from Michaels and my little silver charms are from an old bracelet that my daughter doesn't wear anymore so she took the charms off for me to use for my cards. Aren't they great!?  Here are a few closeup photos:
