Love all you create! Thanks for offering the blog candy too. I am still really intimidated with the copic markers/coloring. Any tips/tricks etc. would be great!

Hugs~ Kim

I, too, am eager for any Copic tips. I'm self-learned with what I do with them (there are never any classes near my neck of the woods). Videos are especially helpful to me. Enjoy your blog and thanks for the super blog candy!

I would love to see some gift ideas that would be easy to make and inexpensive. These would be used to earn money for a hospital in our state that treats children no mater if they have insurance or not. All the money goes for the care of these children.

[Adair]

5.

You already share so many wonderful ideas! I am always interested in seeing what new things and different ways of doing things you come up with. I am on a limited stamping budget, so learning different ways to use items I may already have is always fun!

I love spellbinders and would love more tutorials on using them. I love all of your work and visit your blog everyday.

Congrats once again, Sharon. Any new technique is appreciated! Your takes on techs that have been out there for awhile are always interesting and beautiful.

[Deanna Morgan]

Congratulations on your anniversary! You create so many "new" things to show us already, that I've seen some wonderful things i never might have thought of to do myself. Yet, you asked, so---I love to see details of Copic coloring and more examples of altered art would also be nice.

[Wendy Elliot]

I love all of your ideas and techniques... maybe more copic & nesties.... thanks for the chance to win!

[Barbara Staradumsky]

I have all of your Copic Tutorials saved in a notebook. I'd love to see more pdf Copic Templates. I love just going to my book and refreshing my mind about something I'm trying to color. :o)
Hugs,

Love the Spellbinder's Snowflake dies! I love to see coloring with copic techniques! My coloring skills are not great and I love to see the way you use these copic markers :)

Oh I love this set and haven't had a chance to get them!
I love the look of layering nesties but need some more idea's.

[Cindy J.]

15.

Happy anniversary! Your blog is a huge inspiration to me, and I often need plenty of inspiration when I get "crafter's block." Your ideas are awesome!

[Eileen Velez]

16.

I would love to see some more techniques with nesties!

[Carole Chesser]

17.

Oooh! I'm always up for seeing more nesties and other Spellbinders dies tips and tricks! Anything you do is just awesome. Love the photos you show. They're so helpful!

[Beryl]

18.

I love all your work but the things I find most interesting are your altered projects.....boxes, frames and calendars. I really need this snowflake die for a project I'm planning for next year. I'm keeping my fingers crossed!
Thanks for the chance to win.

what a pretty set of snowflakes! I like to see tutorials on just about anything. But, I would like to see something more on impressabilities. They are the one Spellbinder product that don't come with any information whatsoever on how to use them.

[Judy L Rozema]

20.

I love the nesties, when they first came out I thought they where way to expensive, But now I realize they are so worth the price, so many dies so many uses!!! I do how ever feel intimidated withthe copics so some tutorials with them would be awesome!

[Donna Rinckel]

21.

How generous of you to do these giveaways. I love Spellbinders and never tire of tutorials using them. They are such an amazing asset to creating. I'd also love to see tutorials using Copics and gift ideas. You can never have too many tutorials on either of those topics. Thanks for your generosity!

[Shirley]

22.

I love the tutorials on Spellbinders - just received an Impressibility for Christmas and am not sure how to use. Thanks for hosting such a great site.

[Nena]

23.

What fantastic blog candy. This is on my wish list!! I
would love to understand more about choosing a Copic
group for an image or anything about Copics!!!

[Tamara]

24.

I am a huge spellbinders fan, and living in Saskatchewan I have a use for snowflakes dies about 10 months a year ;)

I would like to see some more things done with "non traditional" materials like canvas and metal.

[Candy]

25.

Wow what great blog candy. I would love to make these snowflakes. Thanks.

I love learning new techniques but would also love to learn more about Copics.

[Heidi Gore]

26.

I love all your creations. The only thing I wish is that your e-mails showed a picture of your project or card, then I would click the link more often. I often get so many e-mails that if I don't see a card I like, or just see words, I might just click on past it and miss out on something I really might have wanted to see. Other than that, your projects are always beautiful.

[Stephanie Perry]

27.

Sharon, what fun blog candy!! I love my Spellbinders products and would be tickled pink to win these snowflakes!

You've done so many technique and product tutorials here and on the CLASSroom. How about examples of how you come up with card and scrapbook page designs? What are important details that aren't always obvious?

Thanks for all you share here!

Congrats to Peggy Sue! I can never get enough Copic help, so I'd love to see more tutorials and explanations. Thanks!

[Clarinda]

29.

Love your blog! You've sold me on copics I know I just need practice... I went and look in the spellbinders album to see what I would like a tutorial on...there was a great flower.. it was puffy on a box... how did you make it puffy and HOW do you decide on the colors? Color combination is a problem for me! I have a color wheel! lol

[Rebecca Ednie]

30.

I really liked your ATC and any projects with silk ribbon. I also love any altered items or 3-d projects.

[JoAnn Burnham]

31.

I would love to win these dies. Thanks for the chance. I would also like any technique/tutorial on using the Spellbinder dies. Thanks for sharing all your talent and creations.

[Anne D]

32.

Love your web site and the opportunity to see your talent at work! Do you use the Copic airbrush system? I would love to see a tutorial on that!

[Susan G]

33.

Aw shucks! I didn't win the JR stamps, but thanks sooo much for offering the snowflakes dies. I've looked at them for a while now trying to decide which set to buy. I'd love to add them to my Nestie collection.

[Mary G.]

34.

Hi Sharon ~ Love your blog. I'd love to see more Copics, Copics, Copics! :) Thank you!

[Denise~Paper Ponderings]

Aaaaahhh...these are on my "really want" list! Love snowflakes! (The paper kind) I'd LOVE to see what you've made with snowflakes!!

[Pauline H.]

I absolutely LOVE anything Spellbinder makes and I would love to see you do more with any of their products.

[jamie schnirch]

I can never get enough info about the Spellbinder dies, especially the nesties! Thanks for the inspiration.

[Jean]

38.

I would like to see more tutorials on using Spellbinder dies and Copic markers. I love your site and all the beautiful work that you do.

[Janet b]

39.

I'd actually like information about how to take pics of your cards better. Mine are never so clear and crisp, so when I put them on my blog I don't really like their look. Thanks for the chance to win.

[Wendy H]

40.

I am going to also say I would love more copic tutorials. I have some and I really would love to be able to use them in my projects more. Thanks for the chance to win :).

[Jessica G.]

41.

Awesome blog candy! I'd love to see the different techniques which use Nesties and also any organizing techniques you have!!

[Shirley Lee]

42.

Thanks for the chance to win those awesome snowflakes. I have a lot of Nesties but seem to shy away from using them. I would love to see some techniques on Using Nesties on pre-stamped images. You do a wonderful job in your explanations of all the techniques you share with us. The Copic air brush system is another item I don't have but would love to know how to use it. Thanks for asking for our ideas.

Sigh....Love the snowflakes and can only dream. Would love copic coloring and blending tips and techniques. Congrats on 3 years. Have been a fan for over 2 years.

[Elizabeth S.]

44.

I love the nesties! I would love to see more of tips on the copics. I love these also. In fact I think these are my two favorite tools.
Congratulations again on your Blogiversary!

[Trudi]

Hi Sharon,
I LUV my Copics....and have appreciated all the one on one help you gave me...I'm now the proud owner of quite a collection of these superior products! I have NEVER mastered the airbrush thingy though. I have the little cans, the thingy that connects them...but my air can ran out of pressure sooooooo fast...I'm not sure what I did...so...I need a step by step tutorial of using my airbrush thingy....not sure if I should disconnect it...turn the little nobs...etc...and fearful I overused my ink...so....a little tutorial on adding ink to my Copics might be needed to! LUV the product...just not that skilled in reading Japanese! LOL! (OK, I suspect the directions are in English...I just am not that great at reading directions of ANYTHING...)

:) Trudi

I enjoy your postings lots! I am in a rut, would just like to have different ideas on how to use and create with what I have. Embossing powders, nesties, stamps etc. Really liked that trading card!

[Sheri]

47.

Thanks for the opportunity to win these snowflakes. I would love to see tutorials on using the Nesties. Thanks

[Shirlann]

48.

I never tire of seeing your Copic tutorials! Always like to see how nestabilities fit with stamps sets I already own and creative ways to use them. Love the snowflakes on your blog header and your photo of said giveaway!

[Sally Cendral]

What fun it would be to win this gorgeous set of snowflakes. I would use them lots and often!!! Thank you for the opportunity . . . .

Copics and nesties--what more could a person ask for? Seriously, I'd love anything on these two topics, but it would be fun to see interesting ways to use these products used on non-paper materials such as metal, ribbon, or acrylic. Thanks again for the fun give aways, too!
