Your Next Stamp New Release Blog Hop!

Hello!  The Your Next Stamp DT is hopping today to show off the new May release images!  There are so many cute images, you won't want to miss it! 

The hop will run from today, May 23rd until Friday, May 27th at midnight EST.  You will have until Friday to leave comments on all of the DT blogs, and to enter your name in the nlinkz on Karen's Blog for your chance to win a new release prize pack!!!  Also, two of the blogs along the way are secret hopper blogs, and two lucky commenters will be chosen to win one of the new release stamps! 

I am the first stop on the hop, so let's get started!


Isn't he ADORABLE!!!  This image is called Balloon Ride and I paired it with some My Mind's Eye Lime Twist Fly a Kite dp.  The sentiment is also from a new release set called Handwritten Sentiments which Karen made at my request:)  Love it!!! 


Next we have this cutie called Kite Fhiona, which is now available as a single image~YAY!  The dp is a mix of My Mind's Eye Lime Twist Life of the Party and Fly a Kite, and I used the May Jen's Sketch For You To Try which Your Next Stamp is sponsoring, so check it out HERE

Karen is also offering a New Release Sale during the hop!  Just enter the code YNSMAYNR during checkout to receive 10% off your entire order! 

Now it's time to hop over to Beth's super creative blog, but make sure you leave a comment before you go to be eligible for the prize draws!  Here is the hop order in case you get lost:
