It's a collection of my favorite things...Brads, Metal, rub ons, and rubber! I'll also be throwing in some samples of my favorite ribbon. For the other 5 people I will me mailing you a card based on your favorite things and some goodies.

My favorite stamping things....um, all of them? :) Seriously though, right now I love my super cheap (but works great) sewing machine, bling, pearl bling (K&Co.), any ribbon, patterned paper, and blogs for inspiration. There's probably more, but I'm too tired to think of it all!

I am really into using my ribbon at the moment. I hoard it and I am trying to get over that. So ribbon and brads are my favorite. Rub-ons are quickly moving up the fav list too!

Hands down my favorite two things are my cuttlebug and bling. The cuttlebug is the best embellishment for a card that needs a little something extra. Congratulations on 10,000 hits! That's awesome!

I really do not think I could live without my scissors. They are probably my favorite tool. I love to use watercolors and mixed mediums. I love to look through my house and find items that would look good on cards. I made a card with the label from a vegtable can and incldued a recipe for that vegetable.

It is so nice of you to offer such wonderful gifts.

I am so obsessed with everything stamping and scrapping. Right now I can't seem to get enough designer paper. Not sure what I will do with it... but just love hoarding it! Congrats on your blog and thanks for the generous give-away!!

Linda SS said...

My favorite technique is dry embossing so I really love my light box. My Cuttlebug with the embossing folders is a lot of fun too, but I have more fun using brass stencils and doing them by hand. I'd definitely chose the light box and Cuttlebug as my favorite toys:)

mel m. m. mccarthy said...

My favourite technique is doing emboss resist with a glue pen. You can get all kinds of intricate detail with it. Fun! :0) Thanks so much for a chance to win blog candy. Here's a link to my tutorial for glue-pen emboss resist in case you're curious :0) Mel:

Hi there,
My favorite tool is my embossing buddy. Before I got that little puppy I had embossing powder everywhere on my cards. It's impossible to get it all off!
Thanks for the chance at your candy. I love the stamp you are giving away.

Well, what a load of fun! Your blog is totally awesome! I love all aspects of stamping so much, it's hard to choose a favorite. I LOVE coloring, it's the original reason I started playing with stamps! It's so soothing. I enjoy creating scenes on my cards, using a variety of chalks, inks, and sponging techniques. My cards usually end up shabby chic because I don't get caught up with perfection--if I make a mistake, I try to make it work somehow rather than start again from scratch. I love my new crop-a-dile and my Cuttlebug is on its way, so I'm sure that will top my list too! Other great stuff I love to play with: stickles, bling anything!, rub-ons, eyelets and brads, fabric and sewing. thanks again!

I have been coloring a lot lately. I got Prismacolor pencils for Christmas. But I have been looking at a lot of bling on cards in galleries and on blogs. I think I need some rhinestones and glitter for the new year. :)

I love ribbon of all kinds and my cuttlebug of course! After being away from stamping for awhile I find I have no new punches and very few non-retired sets! (I am a newer demo!) So, I am also in love with punches (got 2 with my last order and ordering 2 more tomorrow!)
