Yay You Blog Hop 1!

Hi, friends! Welcome to day one of two special release blog hops celebrating our Yay You release! Come back tomorrow for more amazing inspiration!
Our latest release, Yay You, is a celebration! This collection shines with foil and cut sets like Dancing Butterflies, Sketched Leafy Wreath, and Intricate Floral Background; new love-themed stamp and die sets like Arched Borders and Happily a Lifetime; and sweet stencils like Domed Arches Masks and the Orange Blossom stencil and die combo.
We’ve expanded our Basic Box Card add-ons with Basic Box Card Stars and Basic Box Card Grass, and we’ve added TWO new colors of our mesh bag in Cheeky and Orchid. Plus, don’t miss the darling Strawbeary stamps and dies, which combine berries and bears!
OK! Let’s get a sneak peek of what’s in store for our blog hop today with inspiration from Shari Carroll and Beth Opel! Shari and Beth used products from our Yay You release to make these fantastic projects:


We love our customers! And we love your enthusiasm for our exclusive releases and blog hops. To celebrate, Simon has set aside a free gift just for you! The free gift (with a purchase of $25 or more) for the this blog hop is our Beautiful die set! Check out the details on the banner at the top of this post for information about claiming your gift.
