One year of blogging and 30,000 hits!


It is amazing how quickly a year can go when you are having fun! I have enjoyed sharing all my paper creations, cookies, decorations and best of all my grandson with all my readers.

In appreciation , I would love to give away some fun "stuff" to one of you. Pictured is some Tim Holtz grungeboard...have you ever felt that stuff???...it is COOLOOL (that's how my children said it when they were little), a package of cuttlebug border embossers, Basic Grey cupcake designer 6x6 paper and a clear stamp cupcake stamp set. (ya know, all to coordinate with my new cupcake blog wallpaper LOL)

How to win: Leave me a comment here and tell me about your favorite stamping tool! I love stamping tools and would hate to miss anything LOL! (If you have left a comment on my last 2 cards, you get 2 chances to win!)

Thanks for stopping in and visiting! I am always honored when you take the time to leave a comment on my blog entries!

This blog candy will be open until Thursday April 30th! I will post a winner Thursday night!

    Congrats on all those hits and your dedication to your blog. I read way to many to do one of my own. My favorite tool is my Scor-Pal. I think I use it every day. My cuttlebug is a very close second as I love the embossing folders and nesties that I use in it. Have a great week. dar

    Congratulations on the 30k hits!
    My favorite stamping tool is my Versamat. It is rubber with rulers on one side and foam on the other. When you use the foam side to stamp on you get good even coverage.
    Thanks for the chance to win!

    Hey Aunt Susie, way to go on the one year mark!!! You know how much I love your blog!! Love the cards!! Love the recipies (had to make a few of them)!! Love the Cole pictures (just got some new ones from Erin)!!! I pretty much just leave your page minimized at the bottom of my computer so I can see what you have been up to. I guess you could call me your blog stalker! haha!!
    My favorite tool is my Scor-Pal. It's one of my newest toys, so I have been having lots of fun with it.
    Can't wait to see you at the Jamboree!
    Love,

    I am just getting into stamping so I don't have a lot of cool stamping tools, YET! LOL! So far I think I like coloring with colored pencils and baby oil. I have started collecting copic markers, but don't have enough of the right colors to truly play with them! I will eventually get them though.

    Just one tool? Hmm, I love my nesties, but don't have a good system to organize them so they get a bit dusty between uses. My all time fav is my Crop-o-dile. It makes hole punching quick and concise plus I never fret about setting eyelets. CONGRATS on your success!

    HI Sue... Congratulations on your 30,000 hits!!! That's because you make such beautiful cards.... I wish I could color even half as nicely as you do. I love all your cards. Like you, I am crazy about stamping and have more stamps than I could ever use. My favorite stamping tool would be my versamark ink and embossing powders (or is that two favorites)? They give such a beautiful finish to stamped images. You are so generous with your blog candy.. I love all of them!!! Thanks for the chance, Jackie T

    Congratulations on your blog anniversary! I've been enlightened by Heidi, so I'm a frequent visitor now. Your cards and projects always knock my socks off and I always enjoy visiting.
    I have so many tools I use every day, but I'd have to say my favorite one is the small Tonic paper cutter I have on my table. It shreds the tiniest edge of cardstock with ease, and gives such a sharp, clean look to all of my cards, mats, and edges. TFS such great goodies:)
