Successfully Reposting "A Few of My Favorite Things"

The past few years for me have been a journey on the long and windy road of "Paper Crafting".


I started out just wanting to emboss a few homemade cards. As I traveled I became an embellishment junkie. I collect anything I can find. I just love embellishments, I just love the craft. Some of it is so hard to part with. KWIM! Along the path I have come across a few things I really love. I've decided I would do Some blog candy and share some of my little treasures with you.

I love my Cuddlebug, I love its versatility, so I cut 12 large pink flower die cuts. I love my Sakura quickie gel pen, it comes in so handy when mounting the little die cuts from my Cricut, Cuddlebug and QuiKutz, so I am giving one of them away also. I love the tiny Button shaped brads I have found, they look so cute on cards , so I am including 6 Large and 6 small white ones. I love eyelets also. I have 3 Happy Holidays and 3 Merry Christmas, and 1 "Children are Lifes Little Treasures", eyelet plates from MM to include. I love Stars also and I really think they are going to be hot this year so I added 6 metal stars. I really like when I can find fun ribbon, and two of my favorite finds this year were the Chocolate grograin with colored stitching, this one in teal on the wood spool I found at Michaels, and the little micro spools, especially this one Chocolate and Carmel gingham, love it love it love it. I have way too much ribbon in my collection. Finally, I love chocolate and carmel. This year I learned to stamp little images on address labels and then secure them around little "Treasures" chocolates, so I have included some of them also. I am also adding the extra "Mixed Booquet" card I posted on Thursday. I revisited it and added 4 little celery brads in the corners on the Elegant Eggplant layer. I didn't have enough on hand to do that for the swap. I just love the embellishments, and I hope you'll love this card and the Blog candy I have put together.

Today I was working on some cards and I just love these scallops I cut with my cricut, so I decided I would add 6 of each to the blog candy, you can pick the SU color you would like for each.

Here is a sample of one I used on a card this morning.

Finished size is about 2 1/4"


To be eligible I just want you to leave a comment telling me, "How many of Lifes Little Treasures I Have?", There is a hint is in this post, and the picture of the blog candy and elsewhere on this blog. I will have one of my treasures randomly pick from the number of correct post. I will do the drawing before they go to bed on Monday evening at 10pm. Central Time. I will post the winner on Tuesdays post. Good Luck and Happy Posting!
