Challenge #30: CASE a YNS DT member!

Welcome to YNS Challenge #30! Today we are challenging you to ...

CASE a member of the YNS DT.

CASE is an acronym for Copy And Share Everything. The idea is that you choose a specific piece of work and take inspiration from it. You can be very literal when CASEing and create an exact copy of the work you have chosen as inspiration. Alternatively, you can use the work you have chosen to copy as a starting point, lifting just one or two elements - e.g. the general style of the piece, or perhaps a colour.

For your YNS CASE creations, we would like you to....

1. Choose a YNS DT member
2. Visit their blog
3. Pick one of their creations (past or present - any creation) that inspires you, and...
4. ...CASE it!

You can either copy it exactly or put your own spin on it, but we do need to be able to see that you have CASEd a specific creation. Therefore, please post a picture of the original card/creation you CASEd in your blog post together with your challenge entry (not forgetting to give credit to the original artist), so we can see your individual take on it!

Here is the list of YNS DT members for you to visit to CASE:


As always, we have 2 fabulous prizes for you to win:

1. Winner – one lucky winner will be chosen by random.org to win $10 in YNS Stamp Bucks (to spend on YNS stamps) and the Winner Blinkie to proudly display on their blog!

2. Top Pick – one lucky entry, chosen by the YNS DT, will win $5 in YNS Stamp Bucks (to spend on YNS stamps) and the Top Pick Blinkie to proudly display on their blog! [NB You must use a YNS stamp on your creation to be eligible to win the Top Pick prize].

We’d love to see you use a YNS stamp on your challenge card/creation, but if you don’t have one, then you can still join in and be entered into the prize draw! As our challenge runs for 2 whole weeks you have plenty of time to hop on over to the YNS Store and pick up some of these cuties yourself! And if you do use a YNS stamp on your challenge card/creation, you’ll be entered into the prize draw TWICE and be entered into the Top Pick draw – that’s 3 chances to win!

We are delighted to welcome Peggy Toole as our guest designer for this challenge. Peggy is an amazing crafter, so be sure to hop on over to her blog and check out her work after you've finished here - you won't be disappointed!

What a great challenge! It gave me the excuse to spend gobs of time looking at everyone's past cards! I lifted mine from Kerri's "Tis the Season" card posted back on Nov. 13th! I love the way the image extends off the card!Would LOVE to win some images and play "properly"! LOL!
