Hi and thanks for the awesome giveaway! I am SO crossing my fingers... This summer we will be going camping with our kids for the first time. At ages 4, 2 and 7 months, we may be crazy, but it may just be the best adventure yet!

Hi Ali! What a great giveaway. Thank you for giving us all a shot at this beautiful stamp set!

One of my favorite online sites for designer papers, especially Basic Grey and Bazzill papers is www.embellishonline.com I've ordered consistently from Shelby and it is awesome service and great products.

My family goes to North Myrtle Beach every year around the 4th of July. My FIL has been going since he was a little boy. The kids love the beach and the lazy river. Thanks for a chance at some great blog candy.

Hi Alli,

My summer plans include a little gardening, I love playing in the dirt. I also plan to spend some of my weekends hanging out and doing fun stuff with my family and friends. As always I'm sure I will fit a few (ok, a lot) of paper crafting in. Great blog candy!

Thank you,
Amy A.

For my inspiration, I really like blog hopping and of course
www.splitcoaststampers.com

I have a blog routine (when I have time that is). I start at:
http://pinklemonade.typepad.com,
I hop on over to:
http://beate.blogs.splitcoaststampers.com
I then take the trip here and usually end at:
http://paperpleasing.typepad.com/my_weblog/
Of course when I actually have "time" i play around with everyones links.
Oh yeah, I also love to look at online catalogs (hero arts has a fantastical one).

Hi Alli! Love the designs of your stamps! Can you say adorable! I think my favorite place to purchase embellishments and paper is cherry on top http://www.acherryontop.com/ they pretty much have everything. I love Nicole's blog for ideas. That woman is amazing. http://nicholeheady.typepad.com/capture_the_moment/ no great plans for the summer really. Gotta work. Take care!

Lastel said...

What a pretty set of stamps , would love to win them ! This summer I am going to try to stay cool in front of my air conditioner , and probably go to the coast atleast once since I only live a few hours from the Oregon coast !

My fav site to roder from is PTI, but I just ordered from Blackberry Paper, so we'll see if I get hooked! From maine, every year we drive to the mountains in Colorado, and tent at 8,000 feet! I tried to work with paper once up there, but lol, it just kept trying to blow away! this year I will quilt!- babies- Beth

Lisa and Penny said...

This summer we are going to Maine...this is also the summer my little girl goes to Kindergarten. We will love back to school shopping!!!! Thanks! Lisa K in TX

Amy said...

Even though I live in a great area for shopping, we don't have much in the way of local scrapbooking stores since Recollections closed nationwide. So I do a lot of on-line shopping. One of my favorites lately has been http://www.bluemoonscrapbooking.com/Home.jsp. I've been pleased with their selection and service. Thanks for sharing your beautiful stamp sets!

retiredheather said...

I love shopping at the Carosel Stamps, TownScrapper and CHF. For the summer I`ll just continue being a retired teacher. The only problem retiring is no more vacation time...except whenever.

Debbie said...

I don't have any summer plans- we were thinking of Paris but prices are outrageous! So we'll probably lay low, BBQ and hang out on weekends. I may go see a good friend out in Seattle.

visting our newlywed daughter and SIL in NH this summer then volunteering to help out in TX when my first Great Niece arrives!

ChristlMC said...

Because I'm in Canada, my favourite online site is http://www.scrappingreatdeals.com/ - shipping from the states + customs is getting too pricey for me! (Though I have ordered from Papertrey, how can I resist?!)

Anonymous said...

OOh, ooh, pick me! I'll be busy this summer -- working and getting ready for Baby #2 (and, with any luck, scrapbooking some of Baby #1)... :) Thanks!

Anonymous said...

My favorite store for embellishments is paperwishes.com My favorite scrapbook idea site is splitcoaststampers.com and for summer, when I'm not working, gardening or stamping, I'll be visiting the booming metropolis of Shinglehouse, PA which has the main attraction of MY MOM!!!

java diva said...

Well, I feel bad b/c I don't feel that I can answer your questions since I don't scrap. But I do make cards! And I would LOVE to use Garden of Life to make them with!
1.If I were to ever shop online, I'd probably order at www.franticstamper.com. She is amazingly nice and has great sales. But I have yet to ever make a scrap online purchase.
2. Again, I don't scrap, but I do get some ideas for them at www.fiskars.com. I love the projects of the day.
3. This summer I'm going to a craft retreat!

Anonymous said...

omigosh - too many cool ones to pick a favorite!

3. This summer - although it doesn't sound exciting, we are landscaping our front/back yards! We've had dirt in the back since we bought the house (due to some updates) .... so woo hoo! a whole new yard!

Amy said...

1) papertrey or all that scraps
2)splitcoaststampers.com
3) card making and getting a job

Hi Alli, thanks for the wonderful blog candy opportunity!

I have been on a self imposed craft diet...so I've been ultra-good! I am looking forward to investing in some prima flowers though when I go to amsterdam in 2 weeks!

I'm looking forward to BBQ's n maybe a little weekend away this summer with my gorgeous hubby...we're going to San Francisco later in the year...and I can't wait for that! bx

Melissa said...

This summer will be oh so busy with many visits with family. We'll be driving to MN and IL this summer. .. so not happy about the high gas prices. And now that the airline fees are going up. . .stinks!!

But we'll enjoy seeing my neices and nephews which we haven't seen in over a year.

All that plus lazy days by the pool. . .can't complain about that.
Would love to win this set!!

mitchells2000 said...

OK, I'm sure my chances are pretty slim for winning this, but I'm leaving a comment anyway! :-) I don't really buy stamping stuff from online stores, so I'll tell you what we're doing this summer. My hubby and I, for the past three years, have been working on attending baseball games at every MLB ballpark. So far, we have gone to 11 parks in 3 years. This summer we are heading west, making stops in Las Vegas (to see family), LA (2 ballparks, Disney, etc), San Diego (another ballpark, San Diego Zoo, etc.), and then Phoenix on the way home to hit another ballpark! It will be a very busy 9 days! :-) By the way, I LOVE your blog! :-)

Lilian said...

thank you for the chance to win this set!! i LOVE it!

my favorite online store is papertrey ink. their designs are chiq and fresh and always versatile.

this summer we're having a family reunion for my in-law's 50th wedding anniversary and 80th birthday. the whole clan will be here, so it should be fun! :)

Jennifer Love said...

Ooh, embellies, I love them...I shop at Scrapbook Territory in Berkeley for all my patterned paper and embellies. Well, not all of it. I shop on the internet, too. hehe!

Katie said...

For summer I'm having family come out and we're seeing the sites of NYC! Pretty excited!

Alison said...

Wow! So many comments already! I love this stamp set, so I'll keep my fingers crossed all day. I have too many favorite online sites to even mention, so I'll tell you about our summer plans. Nothing earth-shattering, unfortunately. I play in a Scottish pipe band, and we spend a lot of weekends traveling around to competitions on the East Coast. Lots of fun there. Also, we'll be visiting Mystic, CT for a few days in July for some beach, history, and aquarium action. Thanks for the candy op!

My biggest embellishment purchases have been from Creativexpress.com and Frugalities.com. And LOTS of ribbon from Lindsey at Jacksonbelle!! If ribbon can save the world, I'm ready, baby! "Garden of Life" is on my wishlist at PaperTrey - what a treat it would be!!

Lisa's Blessed A Latte said...

Well.....for one I am not homeschooling.....Yee Ha!!!! We are taking off the whole summer. Maybe we will get some camping and beach combing in. We have a pool so we will be swimming and BBQing tons!!! Enjoying the Break for sure. ((((Hugs)))

Nicole Rumsey said...

My favorite website for ideas is creating keepsakes, and I also like Two Peas in a Bucket. (Did you see the craft room that was on there recently? Wow, I need one.) I will be spending the summer with my kids, taking lots of pictures so I have plenty of scrapbooking to do this winter.

Tanja said...

Hi, love your blog. Our family will be going to our Summer Camp for weeks, on Sandy Pond in NY. Camp has been in our family since my dad was small. Many of the nearby camps or homes are owned by his family or school mates. My sister will be there as well as our parents. There are always 2 traditional parties celebrating July 4th, too. Can't wait. Thanks for the opportunity to win.

Thanks for the chance at some blog goodies! I just love your blog. I don't usually buy anything online besides Stampin' Up or Papertrey, but I have really been looking at EllenHutson.com. Alot of people have been happy with her service so I will be checking it out real soon. We don't have much planned this summer except for going to San Diego and visiting the beach. It is very hot here in Arizona so any way to get out of the heat is good for us! Thanks again, keep up the great work! :)

Sara Henton said...

1) I prefer mostly to purchase locally unless I'm getting stamps but for other things I do get from www.acherryontop.com 2) other than SCS which is where I get most of my ideas www.twopeasinabucket.com and the one mentioned in #1 is another good one. 3) nothing other than working

This summer I will be playing golf as much as possible!!! Thanks for the opportunity to win this beautiful stamp set!

I'll be selling a condo, buying a house, biking, sewing, embroidering and stamping!
I really like your designs and ideas. Thanks,

Sandy said...

Love the stamp set. Thanks for the chance. This summer we were planning to go to California, my birth state, and take our 2 teens to Disneyland and the beach, but the gas prices are killing that idea so, we'll stay here in Utah and maybe hit the old ghost towns, Lagoon (amusement park) and other sites we haven't seen in all of the years we have lived here. We know that there is alot more to see here.
Thanks, Sandy

Elaine said...

I am staying close to home this summer. Gas prices are already $5/gallon in Seattle and there's no money left over for fun stuff these days. :(
I hope others have fun things planned!

Monika/Buzsy said...

Yummy... just can't pass this up... love flowers. :o)
I buy embellishments and paper in local stores... but at first I would look around at
www.7kidscollegefouns.com...
We are going to Hungary this summer... to visit my parents and family... and hoping to go over to Croatia for a long weekend... they say it's beautiful and fishing is great. :o)
