«Oldest ‹Older 201 – 319 of 319 Newer› Newest»I am currently loving buttons and twine. They seem to be popping up on lots of things I create lately!
Eek! Super fabulous card!
Hmm, I use my nestabilities and copics all the time!! So it's a tie, I guess. :)
I say dies are to die for -- that's my current fav product!!!
I've been having a blast with a recently acquired bunch of EK Success border punches and I've been a little "punchy" lately! Love that swirl. Now can I just mention how amazing your fantastic card is? Oh my goodness, color me impressed!

I love the Queen Bee Collection - I already have a bunch of it! I super love the Flip Notes and the cork pieces.
My current favorite product is all those cool new Martha Stewart edge and corner punches. But next week it will be something else! ;-}

Wow--at the tip top of my list is my Pazzles Inspiration cutter--I've had it a couple of years and it does soooo many things--simply amazing! I love to design my own cards, using my own created designs.
Current favorite product: Copics. Gotta go with bling, too.
At this very moment my fave is the banner stamp from practicing creativity- but I'm definitely in love with the products you used on that gorgeous card!!!
I love it all, but if I had to choose the brads would be it. Great cards.
I love all the vintage pattern paper right now - so beautiful.
Wow, your card is so gorgeous, sheesh, just love it! For sure, the Pink Paislee line you've used is one of my favs, but I have to go with BG Capella for my top pick, although LYB is a close, close 2nd. I look forward to getting this issue of Card Creations, although I have to say your sketches in the last Go-To-Sketches are some of my VERY favorites and it continues to be a terrific resource for inspiration.
My current fave is adhesive backed rhinestones! I can't get enough of them! Besides those, I am crazy over border punches lately!
My current favorite product is the classic butterfly punch from Martha Stewart :)
Love the card you've made, the colors are amazing and those cork embellishments looks really good!

Beautiful and those brads are certainly a big winner in my book too. Current fave product is border punches, Copics and TSG stamps...loving them!

I am really into the tiny alphabet stickers right now. I am always looking for new colors!
Well...my longtime favorite product and still my current favorite is vintage patterned paper!
Too many Moxi Fab products to love!! Each project needs it's own little fingerprint, some unique embellie! I guess that is the fun, collecting this and that from all the companies, putting it all together in a unique design for someone special!
Your card is one of my favorites today! Great design!
Seriously great card and paper!
I'm always a glitter girl in the Stickles form (less mess) and am making my own flowers.
I think that my current favorite product is flowers....I am finding all these great and creative ways to make them lately, which I love :)
My current favorite product is embroidery floss. I've been making little flowers for embellishment on my cards and I like using the thread like twine. It's such an inexpensive way to add color and texture.
I love the stamps because you can customize them for any paper you chooes!!
My current favorite is still just cardstock. I love all the wonderful shades.
I love the Queen Bee brads!

Gorgeous card Jessica! This color combo is really beautiful and not often used (or at least I don't see it so much). You made such an elegant card!
Studio calico is my pick for the week- loving it
I am loving journaling spots, all kinds and flowers!!
Stamps are at the top of my "fav" list but I use my cuttlebug in some capacity for 75% of my cards either with a die cut or texture plate.
Yum is what I think when I look at this card. Too much fabulousness going on :) You inspire me as a cardmaker, and as a mother/wife/daughter, you really are such a wonderful example. I hope your trip to Africa is amazing, I am sure God is going to use you in such a special way. I can't wait to hear about it!
hugs

Blessings,

Jess - awesome card! Thanks for the chance to win!
I love yellow and gray too. It's not a combo you see often, but it can look so sophisticated. Thanks for the inspiration! ~Leah
Do I have to pick one? Great PP always has a special place for me aswell as stamps, alpha's, Prisma's etc. etc. the list goes on!
What you did with the Queen Bee is gorgeous! And I am in love with Cappella. Creativity knows no bounds. Have a great weekend!
oh my...what a hard question! my current favorite products come from the dear lizzy collection by american crafts. there is a banner clear stamp in one of her sets that i just adore. xoxo andie...
Oh my word this line is so elegant. I'm with you -- the bella brads are stunning.
Tiny alphabet stickers. :)
I love embossing and texture plates.
I have so many fave products it's hard to pick, but currently I am loving my lace border punches and vintage paper patterns!
I love those brads! My current favorite product are my Spellbinders cut and emboss dies - oh - and my new Tim Holtz dies and embossing folders from Sizzix!
if someone told me that yellow and gray would be combined, i would run screaming the other way...not really, but the combination would not appeal to me. then...to see the real thing...COOL! besides wanting more space, making little flowers is up front. i won't pay the prices at the stores.
You had me at "Featuring yellow and gray"!!! Love it!! My fave product right now is my butterfly Sizzix die from Stampin' Up...love making felt butterfly pins with a little bling!

Lovin the whole sketch you used and thinking of ancient castles for that queen is perfect!
Until I visited your blog I had a different fav. Now my new favourite is those cork beauties. That Label stamp is not bad either. I like how you layered the stamp right onto the pp. Totally cool effect. Priya
CORK?!? On cards? What a super idea! What a great way to add texture and dimension to cards!
My current favorites are anything Jenni Bowlin :-)
Your card designs are awesome. My favorite products are the MS and EK border punches. Love your color combination!

Love it! Those brads are really fun. I have seen cork used before and it looks like fun. I definitely love my brads though. Thanks for sharing. I love the colors too.
Chris R. from Iowa
Favorite product? Hmmm, I guess my Cuttlebug (with dies & Nesties)
What's my current favorite product Hmmmmmmmmmmm - is it the new papers I'm seeing on this hop? Is it the Copic obsession that I finally jumped into with both feet. Oh my - kind of like my favorite food...whatever I'm in the mood for
Love the jewel tones and the Queen Bee jewels too!
What fun - great color combo! My favorite product right now is micro fine glitter! It gets everywhere, but I wear it proudly!
I love felt and have really been drawn to the yellow and grey color combo lately.
Fave products? Oh, without a doubt, anything related to Tim Holtz. He rocks the scrapbooking world.
Hmm so hard to pick just one fave but right now I would have to say it's my new prismacolor pencils- love them!!
I am loving the MME Lush line and the new basic from BG
Hi Jess....your card is FABULOUS!!! I love the design and all those awesome brads!!! My favorite products are the ooooh so pretty pearl flourishes...gotta have them in every color!!!
Love the pink paislee - great card! My fave thing would be butterfly punches any size - dont have any but would love some!
My favorite product is embossing powder. I love the look it has.
Sophistication is a VERY accurate word for this Queen Bee collection. The yellow and gray is so striking, going to need to try that out soon.
Fav product? I'm pretty sure it would have to be markers, but if you're talking embellies well then I'd definitely say ribbon.
Current fav? only one? Jenni Bowlin, Pink Paislee and yellow bicycle.
~Shari R.
love your work. just beautiful. papers are pretty. thank you gina kinde email ginak1117att.net
Oh, my gosh, I don't know how to pic a fav product - there are so many but a few of my go- to items are coppices, nestabilities, and patterned papers.
It would be hard for me to pick...LOL..but this week I'm really into punches last week it was glimmer mist.
This is absolutely beautiful! :)
I'm SO glad that you're home!
Just sayin'!
<3 Mom
I think my favorite produce are the cute die cut stickers. I am a stamper at heart, but it's so fun to just "slap aka stick" something on a card.
