Blog Candy!!!

Hey, look at my counter!! I was away camping and when I arrived, my counter had hit 20,000. Can you believe it?? I certainly can't.

So, to thank you, my faithful readers and drop in visitors, I would like to give away some blog candy!!! I have pulled together a whole bunch of yummy things!!


There are lots of letter stickers and rubons, some from SandyLion, Carolees Creations, EK Success. As well, there is a package of "cardstock stickers" from Cosmo Cricket. It is called the Souvenir collection and I thought it could work on cards or scrapbook pages so if you do either you'd be able to use all of these. Also, there are some very cool mini frames that I found at my local dollar store. I bought them to use on cards but again, would be perfect for scrapbooking too!! I have some flower and butterfly bling, some mini clothes pins, some bright tags, a few chip board ovals, and three 2x2 pieces of Stampbord (you can check out how to use it on their website - it is fun stuff). I've added a small assortment of interesting brads (dragonflies, hearts, and bright circles). Finally, if you look up at the top, you will see a Design Ruler by Tim Holtz. This is THE ruler of all rulers!! It is truely amazing and I can't believe I actually crafted without it!! Check out Tim's video here which shows you all the details and how great it actually is.


Well, how do you win this fabulous candy?? All you need to do is leave me a comment and let me know what you would like to see more of on my blog!! I aim to please and that is easier when I know what my devoted readers (while few in number) are looking for!!
I know some of you have indicated that you have trouble leaving comments here on my blog (I've tried to fix that but I have no idea what the problem is, sorry). So, if you can't leave a comment here and would still like to be entered, go to my SCS gallery and private message me from there.
Leave a comment here or private message me from SCS with your thoughts by Thurs July 25th at 10:00 pm (Mountain time) and I will enter you into a random draw for the goods :-)

Thanks and good luck!!

I think your work is wonderful and your design lessons are great. I wish, though, that your pictures were brighter to better show off your cards. Some better lighting would really show off your genius!

20K...WOW!!!

Love your creations. Some candy would sure be "tasty". Loved the recent owl....might have to have the stamp....My Mother-in-law collects owls, and I watch for owl stamps/etc. to use in making cards for her.

Congrats on your blog count! I check it out every day. I've enjoyed so many things you've already done. The lessons are a great idea. I like how you show comparisons and re-makes.

I hope I win. I do NEED a Tim Holtz Design Ruler after watching that video.

Thanks for sharing. Joyce T

Congrats on the blog hits. I am not picky on what I like about blogs. If you have an interesting story, or something great happen, I like to hear about it. I like to hear funny stories and I like to learn things.
