WCMD Week: Day 5 of Giveaways

Hi!  It’s Day 5 of my celebration of World Card Making Day Week.  Today I have some shares, links, Q&A’s and a great giveaway.  It’s very yummy…

The winner of Day 3’s giveaway (a bunch of Heidi Swapp goodies) is Jessica Griffin.  I will email you.

First, I wanted to say that I finally got the video to work on YouTube for yesterday’s card.  Here it is.  (For more info on the card, click HERE.)

Next… 2peas had a bunch of new stuff go up in their Garden yesterday.  Here are my silly cards… click HERE for more pictures and info…

A few more links..

  • Check out Jennifer Pebbles FREE class at 2peas HERE.  It is so cool.
  • Shannon Tidwell had a baby girl… so happy for her.  Look how stunning she looks with her pretty girl in this great layout HERE.  Ooooo… and THIS is so pretty!
  • I love Amy Grendell’s adorable Halloween Treat Jars HERE.  I think I may do this for the kids in Colin’s class.  And fill it with raisins. 🙂

Moving on…

I am trying to catch up on Q&A’s.  Here are a few more…

Q: Awhile back you mentioned something about kits.  Are you still thinking of doing that?
A: Back when I started the blog, I asked if anyone would be interested in buying kits if I had extras from classes.  However, I decided not to do this for two reasons.  One… I am lazy. 🙂  Two… with stamping, it is hard to do kits that aren’t super expensive.  And I seem to be completely incapable of creating anything without stamps.  (Addictions are tough. 🙂

Q: What dies work with the Cuttlebug?
A: Almost all do.  If you have non-Cuttlebug dies and want to learn how to use them on a Cuttlebug, I recommend doing a Google and/or YouTube search on “Cuttlebug with Quickutz Dies” or whatever. You can easily get the answers you need.

Q: Do you have any other videos I can see?
A: Yep.  I would recommend going HERE and clicking on the yellow “subscribe” button so you can be notified whenever they are posted.  Also, I do videos for twopeasinabucket.com HERE and Hero Arts HERE.

Q: Where do you get all your pretty soft ribbon?
A: Ahh… I get asked this a lot.  And I am so happy to say that one of the great online stores now carries the silk ribbon I love!  I can promise promise promise you will love it.  It is classy and soft and comes in great colors.  And thin, so when you tie a knot it is tiny and not bulky – perfect for cardmaking and scrapbooking.  If you are interested in the silk ribbons, click HERE.  They have great prices, too.

Now… time for the next giveaway.  Today I have a fun pile of my favorite silk ribbon!  For a chance to win all this goodness, just leave a comment on this post by Friday at 11:59pmEDT telling me one of your favorite stamp companies.  (I am hoping to discover some new ones to buy.)  I will post the winner on Saturday. Here is the ribbon you would win…

Silk ribbon goodness 

Off to pack for a teaching gig this weekend in Orlando.  It is a rep show – I love doing classes for store owners. It is good to see stores doing well in this industry and economy.

Have a great night.  Thanks for stopping by.

    I haven’t done tons of stamping but I just picked up a set by Autumn Leaves, Stampology clear stamps. The name of it is ‘Flourishes 3’ and I love it. I have already used it on a layout and I can tell I will be reaching for them often.

  2. Alex says:

    I have just discovered Stampin’ Up! (yeh, slow i know!!!) We don’t get much of it here in OZ! I lOVE it, they are just soooo versatile! I also love Hero Arts and have just got some of their Christmas stamps to do my Christmas cards! Have a great day

    Ooooohhhhhhhh such pretty colors.
    I’m still fairly new to adding stamping to my life. I enjoy Stampin up, Hero Arts, Autumn Leaves by Rhonna Furrer. and I have a set of Autumn Leaves flourishes that I really like. I also have a flower that I really like by Hampton Art Stamps. I need to stop buying stamps and start using the ones I have. Yea – just like I need to stop buying scrap supplies and start using them. But it’s such fun to buy.
    Have fun this weekend.

  4. Kim B. says:

    The stamps companies I like are Autumn leaves, hero arts, and I would love to try some of the basic grey stamps…. I love when I find a nice looking journaling stamp as well.

    Won’t be introducing you to any new stamp companies, sorry… my favourite has got to be Hero Arts (and yes, it is your fault)! 😉

  6. Tina in Springboro says:

    I showed my box of ribbons your give away and they would love to have these ribbons join them!!! I love Close to My Heart, Hero and Penny Black. That is not in any particular order. I cannot wait to see the others that people suggest.

  8. Jingle says:

    Close To My Heart!!! Of course, I’m a consultant, so I am WAY biased! LOL!

  9. Trinh says:

    I love The Angel Company. They have a variety of designs that are unique & fun. The images are rubber and mount to acrylic blocks so storage is minimal.

  10. Giovana says:

    I love Stampin’ Up, but also love Unity Company, Verve Visuals and There She Goes.
    Thanks for chance to win.
    God bless

    I have purchased from the site you listed for the ribbon. They have fast service, and take care to pack them well too. I also love how these tie up so well.

    Most loved stamp company. Well, it is hard to top Hero Arts. My second loved stamps are Fiskars. They have lots for both cards and scrapping.

  14. Kelly Karges says:

    Close to mY Heart has some great stamps, and I also love Stampin Bella

  15. Kasey T says:

    Gotta give another nod to Stampin Up! Probably mainly for the reason that it is what most of my stamps are. I also love their paper! I would love to play with this ribbon. I’m a ribbon addict.

  16. Erin Miller says:

    I really like PaperTrey Ink. One of the cool things is all of the great designers that work for them. Each month during a new release, they all put several different projects up using the product. I also think Unity has some great big images.

  17. the cards are adorable and the ribbon is just yummy…i LOVE stampin up stamps and the $1 studio g stamps…love that w/ studio g you get 4-5 stamps per pack and they are a perfect size for cards…

    fav. stamp company would be autumn leaves and fontwerks…i also like some of the clear ones from hero arts but have yet to find someone independant that sells them here.

  20. kelly says:

    I have just started stamping-thanks to you and your beautiful cards and videos. I love the stamps from papertreyink.

    Thank you for a chance to win.

  21. Cass says:

    At the moment I love Stampin’ Up! Love that all their stuff coordinates, so I don’t have to think! 🙂

  22. I have to jump on the wagon with the Stampin Up lovers… if only they weren’t so expensive.

  23. Lynn says:

    I like the Autumn Leaves sets and Papertrey Ink. I am not a huge stamper and don’t know all the techniques but these two companies’ stamps give me great images everytime!

  27. Kristen Manson says:

    i like the cats life press stamps. thanks for another great giveaway!

  28. Melissa says:

    I don’t think that this is going to be new to you, but I recently bought the QVC set of clear Anna Griffin flourish stamps and the quality of these BLOWS ME AWAY. There is so much DETAIL that actually shows up!! on the most intricate of swirls… I am so very impressed. And I’m kind of a stamp “snob”. ;-> ha ha

    Thanks, Jennifer!

  29. cristin howell says:

    thanks for the ribbon recommendation! One of my favorite companies is the Lockhart Stamp Company. Beautiful stamps!

  30. Jonelle Gressman says:

    I love Hero Arts, Stampin Up!, and Paper Tray Ink. I love this silk ribbon, I have not used it before but I like the idea of how small the knots are.

  31. amber00 says:

    I loveeeee Papertrey Ink stamps.

  32. Marjorie says:

    I’m not a stamper…shhhh. I do like Stampin Up though.

  33. Dana says:

    Love all of the colors of the ribbon … My favorite stamps are Autumn leaves & Hero Arts. However, most recently I purchased several packages of the Inkadinkado clear stamps from Michaels.

    Thanks for sharing with us !!!

  34. Laurel says:

    Thanks for another great giveaway!

    I really like Stampin Up, but agree with the former poster, they are so expensive. Another I have had lots of fun with are Stampabilities, thier Gruffies and House Mouse lines. I color them with Prismacolor pencils and set them with a Goo Be Gone Mess Free Pen- easy and beautiful results!

    Happy Stamping!

  35. I was lucky enough to win some stamps from http://www.appleblossomstudio. Acrylics that take ink really well!

  36. Katie K. says:

    Hero Arts are my favorite! Then I really love all of the Pink Paislee designs. I just love the acrylic stamps, fun and easy to use.

    I don’t have a lot of stamps, but I love those that I’m having especially the clear stamp from Hero and Urban Lily.
    TFS!

  39. Linda Young says:

    Before I discovered your {AWESOME} blog, my favorite stamps were Close To My Heart. I love acrylic stamps! However, your work is so beautiful, that I have rushed out and bought several new Hero Arts stamps. I’ve been having a blast trying out all of the techniques you share in your videos. Thank you so much! 🙂

  40. Denise says:

    My favorite stamp company is Hero Arts…but then you already know about them! Sorry I couldn’t help with a new one! Apparently I need to read all of the comments to get some new ones myself!

  41. hannah says:

  45. Kelly R says:

  49. Kellie says:

    I love Papertrey Ink stamps & Stampin up. After seeing your creations, I’ll have to add Hero Arts, too!

  50. Becs Attwood says:

    That pile of ribbons looks divine!
    My fav stamp Company is Hero Arts, but you know all about them already! I have recently discovered Papertrey Ink through their website and I really love the way their sets break images down into separate elements so you can build up an image using different coloured inks. I don’t own any of their stamps yet – I have to save up to do a big purchase to make the cost of shipping to NZ worthwhile.
