Hi Alli,
I'm loving your blog - your work is amazing, and I love that you update it so regularly.
My fave site ATM for supplies is this one: http://www.retrocafeart.com/
Just gorgeous!
Hi Alli! It's been such a stressful year, I am hoping to enjoy the summer with my boys doing fun things besides chauffering them around town. A few road trips to some BBQ places might be fun!
Hugs,
Amy
My favorite designer paper and embellishment online store is www.stampinup.com. This summer we will travel to the beach in Florida with my son, his wife and our one year old grandson to enjoy some fun, sun and sand. I can hardly wait. Just discovered your blog and I plan on visiting often. Thanks! Karen
Oh....pick me! pick me! =)
Well I am not sure if this store will count....I really like Fabriano cards and watercolor paper (hot press only!) They don't carry DP, but I use there paper all the time...Awesome art suppy store!
www.dickblick.com
Thank you for all the inspiration and for a chance to win an awesome stamp set!
What a beautiful stamp set! You've done such wonderful work with the stamps from PTI! This would be so great to have as it's been eons since I've been able to order anything new from Nicole! Hmmm... don't have a favorite onine store, as I manage a brick-and-mortar store, so I buy from myself! Favorite site for ideas... of course, Splitcoaststampers. And what I'm doing this summer... same thing I do all year; be a wife and mom, work, and stamp! LOL (why I feel compelled to answer all 3 questions is beyond me!) :) Thanks Alli!
Since I'm a teacher, I will tell what I am doing this summer! My first grandbaby (boy) is due in July!! So, I'll be grandmothering!
Thanks for the chance!
Hi Alli!
This summer I plan on spending as much time with my girls museum-hopping and swimming in the lake as possible. My little one graduates from pre-K today and will start her full-time school "career" in August. I am sad for me and so happy for her... and plan on making this a summer for all of us to remember.
Thank you for your site. I am so inspired whenever I visit!
Thanks for the chance!

This summer I will be attempting to get my gardens to grow! I don't really have a green thumb! :( So, hopefully I'll win this set and can at least have beautiful flowers on my cards! :)
This summer my three older kids will be doing swim team for our town. It doesn't sound exciting, but I have become really good friends with some of the moms and its a really fun time of hanging out with them poolside and we even run a book club and get coffee. Its just easy, relaxing and fun. Thanks for the candy offer.
Hi! My favorite online site is Papertrey! I spend more there than anywhere, so it MUST be my fav! Thanks for such a great blog...I enjoy it!
This summer I am going to enjoy my girls (4 yrs and 1 month) and get ready to be a stay at home mom for the first time. My hubby will also be getting ready for his first teaching job...very exciting time for us!
Your stuff is so great Alli, thanks for sharing all that you do.
I am so excited about what I'm doing this summer.....I'M GOING TO THE SU CONVENTION !!!!! It will probably be my one and only time going as my eldest daughter gets married in May 2009 so all our money will be going through this coming year :)...but that's okay...we love her and her fiance very very much !
My husband is job hunting and I'm house hunting :) We're leaving for that trip in two days!!
I LOVE this set and I'd love to win it. Thanks for the opportunity!
We are one a year round school calendar so our "summer" will be 1 month long! Williamsburg Va., Girls scout camp, art camp and a week of nothing, except swim team practice of course!
It's all about the kids! I love it and wouldn't have it any other way!
Victoria
My summer will be spent doing a bunch of traveling... The big trip is to Alaska on a cruise. I can't WAIT! A bunch of people here in Kansas thisnk we're crazy going somewhere cold in the summer, but why would I go to Alaska in the winter??? Then we're going to do a little road trip each day on my husband's day off somewhere closer to home. My missin is to get LOTS of inspiring photos to scrap! Thanks for all of the beautiful scrapbook pages lately. I am partial to scrapbook pages and yours are lovely!
This summer I'll be my town's park and rec tee ball supervisor for the 13th year! Yeah...We love Tee Ball!
I have to admit, I don't do much online shopping when it comes to embellishments and paper--I like to shop local for that. It's the stamps I buy online, because I see people like you and their amazing work!
I'm a teacher, so on my summer off, I'll be a nanny for two amazing little guys!
This summer I plan on improving my stamping skills and stash of stamps! The kids will play outside most of the day and I will be able to stamp away! Since I'm relatively new at this, I'm really looking forward to getting some of the great techniques I've seen lately perfected!
Alli, I've seen such beautiful creations using this set! What a wonderful gift!
My fav on-line store would have to be Eclectic Paperie (http://www.eclecticpaperie.com/) although Ellen's Store ( http://www.ellenhutson.com/servlet/StoreFront) and Cindy's Store (http://stores.ebay.com/StarLitStudio) sure share in my $$! LOL
I will be working as usual. But when were not working or at baseball we will be camping in our little teardrop!! And workiing on a summer reading list. I'm on a buying freeze for all supplies except Stamps! My room is going to sink into the earth I have so much stuff.The stamp sites that I visit (all because of you) are PTI, Cornish Heritage Farms & All that Scraps. I love your blog and your designs!! Cynthia
Hi, Alli, I always enjoy reading your blog and have learned a lot from you! My favorite store for anything is (you guessed it!) Papertrey Ink, www.papertreyink.com. Thanks for the chance to win your beautiful set! Amy
Oh yippee! Pick me, pick me! I am just itching for this set!
Oh, yeah, better not forget the qualifying question. I don't know that I can limit my favorite stores down to just one, but one of my favorites for DP and embellies is Ellen Hutson. Here customer service is top-of-the-line!
Well, the only online stores that I shop at are:
http://stampersdream.com
http://ginakdesigns.com
honestly the only scrapbooking idea site would be here - I love your projects!
Summer - I'll be working at farmers market!
Here in Aus my fave online store is ....
http://allcraftz.com.au/index.php
The prices are brilliant and they have fab stuff for both scrappers and stampers. Cheers Alli! Linda L.
Hey Alli, this is my favorite of your sets so far! It's so gorgeous. I like allthatscraps.com. And this summer Josh and I are going to LONDON AND PARIS. We just booked it and are leaving early June. So I'm still getting used to the idea. I am SO EXCITED.
Oooo, Alli, I love this set! Pick me, pick me!! LOL! Hopefully, I'll be moving this summer, only we haven't found a house yet. Otherwise, I'll be stamping, and cross-stitching and quilting, getting ready for Christmas!
Wow, this set is so amazing. This summer I hope to spend some time with my brother, up on the lake. Other than that my summer is a lot like my winter. Work part time, mother full time and try to stamp in between. Thanks for the blog candy. -Molly B
My favourite on line site for embellishments, papers and almost everything else is The Frantic Stamper. Fran's prices are great and her selection of items is even greater!
http://www.franticstamper.com/
Alli, this set is fabulous and I simply love the flowers!! I also enjoy peeking in to see what you're up to each day. My summer this year is going to be very low key. Everyone will be home and we're just going to enjoy being together as a family - as my two oldest children are about ready to fly the coop. One has graduated college and the other is graduating high school and getting ready for college.
Thanks,
Becca (beccastamps@gmail.com)
I'm looking forward to spending time with my girls once school is out! Our family will be traveling to the beach in Florida and then stopping in Asheville, NC to visit friends. Thanks for the chance!
I just love this set! I hope I win!My favorite online site for paper and embellishments is Stampin Up.
Thanks for the chance to win!
I don't think I could pick just one favorite site to shop at, so I'll share my summer plans! In July, a group of about 12 friends that I met on Splitcoaststampers are getting together for a stamping/scrapbooking retreat in Colorado! We're renting a house in the mountains for a fabulous long weekend!
And, I'm condo shopping, so hopefully I will be moving into my first home this summer as well!
Hey Alli! I LOOOVE this set! You're the sweetest. :-) I love all the work you share! Hmm, I'm loving PTI (www.papertreyink.com) for my papers and stamping stuff! Anything PTI doesn't carry, I usually get from SU! instead. THanks for the chance to win!
I never buy products online, the shipping to Canada just about kill you. This summer we are going to Orlando for about a week. Universal Studios. My kids are super excited.
Thanks for the opportunity. I love this set and I can totally use it.
Lots of family time this summer..going to meet up with sister and brother for a weekend in galveston, taking a mini cruise with kids and girl scout troop, Ft Lauderdale trip for work...lots of little stuff in between...
My favorite scrapbook idea site right now is http://www.pencillines.com/ I find they have a variety of sketches and ideas.
This summer we are doing a variety of things, starting off with taking the kids to Disneyworld (with in-laws). We'll be back for a week before heading to Panama City for a baseball tournament. Other than that, we're open to some boating, wakeboarding, tubing and skiing ;-)
Thanks for the opportunity to win this gorgeous set!
Hi Alli!
Long to me no chat! I hope all is well up north. I'm mostly an SU gal, though I do own papertrey stamps (including yours!!) and bellas. I like getting my paper (other than SU) on sale anywhere I can online lol. Sometimes at a local joanns or hobby lobby store. Allthatscraps.com is a good place to find paper on sale.
What am I doing this summer? Going to SU convention!! Other than that, not much. Gas prices are too high. I watch dogs while their owners go on vacation and I will have dogs from the 2nd week of June thru the end of July.
That pretty much takes up the summer for me! Hope you have a nice one!
Bobbie *Ü*
I will be home with two preschoolers - hoping for long naps so that I can stamp longer!!
Shelly W.
1. my favorite online store is www.scrapbook.com
2. my favorite site for ideas are the many blogs - like yours.
3. No big plans for this summer except visiting my in-laws in Myrtle Beach.
Thanks for the chance to win this fabulous stamp set.
Nicki
the set looks great!
i will be stamping every free moment, in anticipation of getting things ready for my 2nd craft fair. it will be in october. and i am already getting antsy!
hi, thanks for the opportunity, my favorite online store is www.joanns.com because there I can buy different things that I can't find in Panama.
This is a darling set! This summer I'll be spending some serious time with my paper, stamps and ink. We have some family vacation time scheduled and we'll spend lots of time in the pool. Thanks for offering this fun prize!

Your flower set is wonderful. Thanks for the opportunity to win it. This summer we have several family events, MIL 90th birthday, sisters 50th wedding anniversary, daughters 25th birthday. Since I also love to bake, I'll be doing the decorated cakes and cookies for these events as well as the invitations. Gardening, reading, traveling,and enjoying the weather should round out the summer. Thanks again.
My favorite site to order scrapbook papers and embellies from is: http://www.embellishonline.com/home
They always have the new Basic Grey available before other places and they have great customer service with fast shipping!
Hi Alli! I LOVE your site, your work is incredible. This summer my honey and I will be heading to Atlanta for his family reunion, which I believe they are celebrating over 30 years of their annual reunion - fun stuff! Other than that, just grillin' and chillin'.
Carol
I really like Eclectic Paperie. I have only just discovered it and I find myself going there often just to check it out.
This summer we are going to Lake Tahoe, Las Vegas, and Utah. I am looking forward to getting away.
Wanted to say this is my favorite stamp set right now. I have been loving it. Would love to have an extra to give to my Mother-in-Law who is just finding her stamping creativity.
Thanks!
Yay Alli!
I got my inspiration from SCS all the time. I get most of my goodies from Memory Works, and this weekend we are going to South Dakota to enjoy all the attractions and then I've cleaned my summer slate clean to enjoy with my three kids!
Hi Alli...thanks for all the inspiration--and of course, for the chance to win blog candy! I think my favorite online store, even though I guess it's not an online store, is Ebay! I can always find what I want from somebody on there, which doesn't always happen in online stores because they're out of stock, or whatever...so, there ya go! I'm going to shop now! Hope I win the blog candy!
Alli - your blog candies are always so generous! i absolutely love PaperTrey, but haven't bought this set... yet. :) and, i absolutely ADORE everything you've done with CHF!
i don't have any one site for embellishments. i usually pick up one or two items when placing orders for other items. but my favorite scrapbooking site these days is pagemaps.com. i've always enjoyed using Becky Higgin's page layouts to come up with my own personalized design, adn PageMaps allow me to do the same thing. the samples also help me see other ways to use the same layout for a totally different look.
I love allthatscraps.com The prices are great, and the cost of shipping here to Canada is awesome!
As for this summer we will be heading down to Seattle, doing some camping, and then coming back to Canada taking the ferry back to Vancouver island, hopefully getting a chance to visit Ucluelet, and Tofino. Then on to the lower Mainland to visit family, and attending my cousins wedding before heading home. So it should be interesting!
What are you doing thie summer Alli?
I love this set! I'm saving my pennies for a big PTI order.
I have had good experiences with Queen and Co (http://www.queenandco.com/index.asp) for brads and hardware. For ribbon, I like Ribbon and Bows, Oh My (ribbonsandbowsohmy.com).
This summer, we will be enjoying our backyard, watching our garden grow and I plan to take a few days off for day trips to the beach!
I love shopping at Electic Paperie and this summer I am not working! haha I am a teacher and this will be the first summer I have not worked somewhere else to make some extra dough. I am going to relax and craft!
Wow, thanks for the chance at this great set. I do really like you site for ideas...does that sound like sucking up?
This summer we don't have concrete plans, I however plan on really taking my card making up to the levels of you and the other goddesses of rubber stamping.
-Juanita

Summer.... nothing... lol!
My favorite online store is www.allthatscraps.com
Wow, Alli. Thank you for the chance to win this wonderful stamp set of yours. It has caught my eye from the beginning.
Summer Plans: My husband and I are celebrating our tenth anniversary in New York in June. This has been in the works for a number of years and we are sooo looking forward to it. By the way, one of the reasons we have stayed married is that I am a very "careful" and frugal shopper when it comes to stamping and scrapbooking. (wink) So I don't have any favourite online stores to get my supplies. It is card to "hide" the MasterCard bill. LOL. Seriously though, we are happily married and he supports my hobby.
What a GORGEOUS stamp set! I guess I'll go for my favorite idea site, which is www.pagemaps.com; it has never ending inspiration for me. Now, if I can just get the random picker to pick me!!! I have my fingers crossed for luck!
hi alli - thanks for the chance to win this beautiful set... my favorite online store is allthatscraps.com - low shipping, great selection and wonderful customer service. this summer holds a few lazy days, a trip to visit grandparents at the lake, and best of all a visit from my deployed hubby for two weeks! YAY!
Alli - you are so generous! I love this set, it's on my wish list (a very long wish list!). I have a Papertrey order arriving today and I can't wait to play :o) My fav site for scrapbooking ideas is Noell Hyman's site: http://www.paperclipping.com/
And of course for cards it has to be Nichole Heady's Blog: http://nicholeheady.typepad.com/capture_the_moment/
My fav sites for ordering product are: http://www.stampinup.com/ and http://www.papertreyink.com/
I am a SU demo and my own best customer :o) but I also try to support my LSS and I frequent Archiver's a bit too (gotta make us of those coupons you know!!!)
Enjoy your day Alli.
The kids and I are making a list of all the things we should do this summer- some of them including biking around the lake, camping, and ice skating on a rainy or super-hot day! (it's still hard to think about wanting to ice skate being that the temps have barely risen from winter, but the day will come!)
I'm sure its been mentioned already but www.splitcoaststampers.com is definitely my favorite website for inspiration. Thanks for the chance to win your stamp set!
hi! thanks for a chance to win! i visit lots of sites for ideas - yours included! - it's too hard to pick a favorite! so i'll tell you what i'm doing this summer instead. my husband and i are going on a canoeing/backpacking trip! we're going to murtle lake in wells gray provincial park... we're sooo excited!
OMGosh!!! You don't even know how much I would love to have this set. I first thought "I don't REALLY need another flower set" what a silly thing to think. I just haven't had the chance to purchase it yet.
I don't really do much online shopping for anything but my PTI stash. Maybe some copic markers and some embellishments from "All that scraps" (www.allthatscraps.com) or I have bought from "queen & Co." (www.queenandco.com/index.asp) other than that I do a LOT of shopping at Michaels and Joanns. Sorry I can't be of more help. I hope you find what you are looking for.
I will be working three jobs this summer to be able to afford my stampin and scrapin addiction...lol and to be able to go back to college in the fall.
Wow - I'd LOVE to have this beautiful set of stamps - are you kidding!? What a fab prize for someone (crossing my fingers that it could be me). This summer will be busy with 2 little boys that's for sure. We'll be carefully tiptoeing around our tight budget but so far we plan to go blueberry picking with friends and strawberry picking with cousins. We're sure to get some great photos of the kids picking and eating some too! Then we'll make preserves that will bring joy over the long winter months here in Michigan. Yup looks like it will be a nice summer.
Alli - you are so talented. I love the ideas you have on your blog. For my summer vacation, I will be traveling back to my hometown in Michigan for a family reunion. I haven't been "home" since I got married 6 years ago so I'm really excited.
Thanks for the giveaway! Two of my favorites are:
www.scrapbook.com
www.twopeasinabucket.com
I go to those when I can't find something I want at the store. This summer i'll be playing with my 3 kids while my 2 older ones are off school for the summer! Also my parents are getting here today from AZ until 6/5 so i'll be with them a lot while they're here! :)
How lovely it would be to get this set! I don't have ONE favorite on-line store (I shop at several!) and horribly admit I'm so behind on scrapbooking to even look up inspiration so....I'll tell you what I'm doing this summer: Kids' summer camps, trip to Florida, more kids' summer camp, trip to Oregon, then more kids' summer camp! I hope to get some stamping time somewhere in there! Thanks!
As with past summers, we will be at the softball and baseball fields....I will taking kids to basketball and vollyball camps....going to the pool and the library....and the biggest summer event.....I will be taking 5 extremely excited girls to the Jonas concert in Omaha!
I don't know why it is that those kind of stamps intimidate me. Something about the layering of the images... I need to bite the bullet and try them.
This summer, 4th of july week, I am fortunate enough to be able to rent a van that seats 12 and take my children and their significant others and children to Maine to see family that they haven't seen in years and years. 800 miles one way.... I am so looking foward to this. Have been trying for years to get this accomplished.
I'm another one of the sports moms who is going to softball tournaments and baseball tournaments and getting the older son to the airport for basketball tournaments. It's a wild one. Hopefully next month we'll get to see some local basketball! And maybe we'll get to use our travel trailer at some point this summer!! Wouldn't that be nice...but where would I hide all of my stamping stuff to take with me???
Ok, so, I'm not much of a scrapper and I don't use a lot of embellishments, so...what am I doing this summer? I'm getting ready for a wedding. My middle son is getting married, so we're in the thick of wedding plans. What a great give-away! Thanks for all your inspiration.
I have way too many sites to list... but what I am doing this Summer is hanging out with my son before he starts kindergarten in the Fall.
We have a few road trips we are taking. Camping/fishing/going to visit family. Just relaxing and fun!
Great set: thanks for the chance! I enjoy your blog and work.
I hope we can go camping several times this summer. Didn't get to go last year due to health issues.
Oh my goodness! I absolutely love this set. I had it in my cart to purchase, but it got nixed last minute.
I'm relatively new to the online shopping thing...I usually just buy stuff at the lss. However, my plans for the summer are to get settled into our new house. We are supposed to find out today if our offer was accepted! I can't wait to do yard work, decorate, and play:o)
I am very new to stamping and scrapping, so I don't have a favorite anything yet. This summer, I am taking a class (only 4.5 weeks left!), working, and trying to get as much done for my December wedding as possible! And hopefully do some camping in there too :)
I'm not a big embellisher, but most of my stuff comes from Stampin' Up and Papertrey Ink (my new favourite!).
As for the summer, we have one week planned and that is to spend the time at the beach in Penticton, BC
Your set is on my wish list Alli - thanks for the chance to win it! One of my fave online stores (with really reasonable shipping to Canada) is www.stampersdream.com. Michelle carries all sorts of awesome stuff and is a sweetie!
I like to spread my wealth ;) but one of my favorites is Lindsey at http://www.jacksonbelleembellishments.com/servlet/StoreFront

Although there are a plethora of websites for shopping, I have to share my summer plans. After dropping my kids off at my parents, my husband and I are heading to Brazil to visit his parents who have been there as missionaries for the past two years. I served a mission there a few years back and can't wait to eat some yummy Brazilian food! There is more going on this summer, but that will definitely be the highlight!
Does your blog count for great inspiration? If not, I love Splitcoast & PTI/Nicole's blog. For embellishments I love http://www.eclecticpaperie.com/.
And as for the summer it will be in the backyard with my 2 yo who loves to be outside! Hopin' to have great weather!
My favorite shopping sites online are allthatscraps.com and twopeasinabucket.com. acherryontop.com has a good selection as well. Erica
http://www.jacksonbelleembellishments.com/servlet/StoreFront is my favorite online store for paper and pretties
My fav online store is Canadian - Sheila at Scrappin Great Deals gives amazing service and has all the new good when I need them. www.scrappingreatdeals.com plus Wednesday specials.
Hi Alli, I've been eyeing that stamp set for a while, it's so gorgeous! I like to try and support Canadian, so I like to order from www.scrappingreatdeals.com Sheila is awesome and orders over $100 get free shipping...not that enabling...lol. Have a great day. I'm enjoying reading your comments!
This summer dh and I will be catching up with old friends - we just spent 3 1/2 years overseas, and we're looking forward to seeing everyone. Thanks for the chance to win this awesome set!
I will be packing and moving hopefully this summer...waiting for the house to sell! And of course stamping! Designing my new studio! I have waaaay to many store to mention! (shhh, don't tell my hubby!)
Wow!~ I love this set and have been wanting to buy it (along with every other set from PTI!) I get most of my inspiration from Nichole's blog and the blogs of all the PTI designers. This summer I will be trying to get as much scrapbooking done as I can while my husband is off work. (he's a professor)
What a beautiful set! My favourite online store for embellishments is probably Stamping Bella (http://www.stampingbella.com/)because I love the Bella Baubles and other little doodads she has. I never buy designer paper on line because I really have to see it before I purchase it and the web never does it justice.
We will be making our first trip to Washington, D.C. And of course, I plan to do some crafting.
Swedie
oh how I love this set, I have absolutely been dying to have it! Yes, I NEED it! LOL one of my favorite places online to buy stampin' necessities is www.allthatscraps.com
Oh my goodness! This is just the yummiest blog candy! Please, oh please, pick me!
My favorite on-line paper and embellishment source is Jacksonbelle Embellishments. She's got it all and sends it right out to you. http://www.jacksonbelleembellishments.com/servlet/StoreFront
Take care - Regina Davis

How much fun. I am going to North Dakota, Las Vegas and Salt Lake City. Busy, busy, busy.
It's a good life!

Hi Ali. We have company coming from Europe. WE are going to my sister-in-laws sisters cottage. Hope you have a wonderful summer.
My favorite site is http://www.splitcoaststampers.com/ ... it's not only for stampers, but for scrapbookers as well.
I do a fair amount of online shopping at Scrappin' Great Deals in Ontario, Canada. You can find it here:
http://www.scrappingreatdeals.com/index.html
Great prices!!
These shouldn't be tricky questions, but they are.
1)Most of my paper is from SU, but I have bought paper and embellishments from All That Scraps.
2)I don't scrapbook. I would like to, but it intimidates me. My favourite online scrapbooking resources are Cyndi Bundy (http://scrappychick.typepad.com/scrappy_chick/) and Erika Martin (http://stampinmama.typepad.com/). Maybe with enough viewing of their work, sketches and tutorials I will get enough confidence to try it myself.
3)I am not working right now (actually trying to open a retail business) so we don't have much disposable income, so I don't know where we may be going this summer. One thing for sure, we are going camping with my extended family and friends over the August long weekend to Lake Diefenbaker.
This summer I'll be driving to Austin to visit our best friends who moved there last Fall. We haven't seen them since and we miss them terribly! I can't wait, and I hope they realize that I'll be staying for WEEKS! This also means I'll be checking out some Austin stamping stores, woo hoo!
It's going to be a non-traveling summer I'm afraid with the gas prices the way they are. Maybe a few weekend get-aways, but I think I am going to be a homebody this time around. Good time to be crafty, don't you think?
Sue in Alexandria VA
what a great give away!
just a few things planned, but enough to keep me busy! I'll be heading out to the Stampin' Up! convention, house sitting for a friend when I get back, and then prepping to go back to school in the fall - going back to get my ph.d.!
Love your blog and your creativity! :D
Alli!
I love your blog and congrats on your stamp sets! My favorite place to buy "stampin' Stuff" is , of course, Papertrey Inc. I used to be a SU! only kind of prson until I found SCS and was enabled by everyone!! I'd love to win your set- I don't have that one yet!
Gretchen

Hi there, thanks so much for this contest. I love these flowers! My favorite site for ideas is the forum at www.papertreyink.com. All those girls have such great ideas. Thanks again! Shiloh
This summer I will be fishing and camping with my husband, learning to scrap (just starting down this road), and working part-time. Nothing to interesting, but sounds like a lot of fun to me!
What a beautiful stamp set! Thanks for a chance to win. My favorite on line site for shopping is Impressrubberstamps.com and for scrap books twopeasinabucket.com and I also love my local Archievers store. This summer I plan to chill out and spend time with my son as it has been a busy year. We will take several small local trips.
I have a few links for favourite online store but this summer, my hubby and our son will be moving to Australia! Whoo hoo!!
Gorgeous images!! My favorite sites are www.allthatscraps.com and www.stampingcottage.com. This summer we are MOVING to a newer, bigger house with a bigger yard for my little men. I'm looking forward to the "moved in" part but not the "move-ing" part!
Hey Alli
I check out many sight for idea's but I think my fav is www.scrapbook.com. Lots of great people to meet to.
Thanks for sharing your creations, and the chance for blog candy!
God Bless

Hi Alli. . .I'm trying to cut down on my purchases of embellishments (I'm a hoarder!), but I usually purchase where ever there is a great deal! My DH and I will be taking the family to the Black Hills this summer. It's been almost 17 years since we've seen the area. Thanks for the change to win a great prize!
1. My fave is twopeasinabucket.com just because they have a lot of stuff
2. I LOVE scrapinstyletv.com. I love being a sister there and WOW, talk about talented girls!!! Check out the fashionistas and also the members' portfolio. Overwhelming!!! So many awesome scrapbookers upload here.
My alltime favorite is PC Crafters but these are digital graphics, embellishments and papers
This summer along with two other girlfriends I'm going to Atlanta to see Color Purple at the Fabulous Fox Theater. This happens in July. Then in August I'm attending a family reunion.
Janet
I like Ellen Hutson's store and Papertrey Ink and Eclectic Paperie for all things paper and fun! This summer we are not traveling because of the gas crunch. Is anybody!!!! I am going to concentrate on my garden and my stamping.
Mary
www.primitiveseasons.blogspot.com
This summer I am planning to play more with all my wonderful stamps and to get caught up on projects! My kids will be out of school and I can finally take the time to make some fun cards for all my friends and family! I love your blog and read it daily! You are very talented! Thank you!
I hope that random thingy likes my number!! I purchase mostly from Ellen Hutson & All That Scraps.
This summer we hope to be spending a lot of time up at Lake Superior. We love it there.

Alli!!
Holy comments my friends, everyone adores this set!
My favorite store is Ecectic Paperie because those girls are so super sweet and I love the variety they have!
I'm looking forward to spending a week on Nantucket with my boys (my two little guys and my husband!) I'm also looking forward to every spare minute we can squeeze in at the pool club up the road!
Hope you're doing great!
Hi Alli!
My favorite site right now is scrapsupply.com. Lots of great stuff!
I'll be moving this summer as we just bought a house!!! My new fav place to shop online www.polkadotplaza.com (cheap nesties & that monogram stamp) and my fav Scrap idea site is scrapinstyletv.com (i think someone else said it's theirs too).
Thanks for the fabulous chance to win, I haven't been able to get my PTI fix because I exchanged my craft shopping for a house. ;) xoxo
Hi Alli,
We don't have great plans this summer except hanging with the kids. My favorite online scrapbooking store is www.scrappingreatdeals.com, they are canadian and keep up with the trends! Hope you have a great summer
Carrie
Hey Ali,
What am I doing this summer? I am getting married to the love of my life on June 29th. That's the only thing that I have planned and the only thing that matters to me right now! :) :) :)
Jessica
Well, I just ordered from PTI and that is the only time I have ordered supplies on line. I subscribe and visit several sites a day. I tend to go to the Stamping Top 50 and pick a chunk of 50 to go through. Hopefully, this summer I will find a job, win the lottery or find fame as a stamper. One or all will do.
Thanks for the chance to win the beautiful set! I got outvoted so we're going camping for a few days and then spending as much time as possible having fun as a family.
This summer I will be in my last residency/ internship for physical therapy school and couldn't be happier! So even though it is work/ school and will be very time consuming I get to do what I have worked so hard for! Thanks for the chance to win a beautiful stamp set!
since our summer is ages away (december!) (i am in Australia!) i have no idea what we are doing yet....so my favourite place for inspiration would be splitcoaststampers.com....heaps of other places too but i always look here first.
have a great day :-)
HI Alli,
Well, my summer plans are to stick close to home after spending 2 weeks in Florida with my whole immediate family (15 of us in total)for my parents 40th wedding anniversary!! We are pretty excited. When we get home we are going to prime and paint the kids bedrooms. They cant wait! Thanks for the blog candy!
This summer i am hopefully doing lots of stamping and scrapbooking and having a nice vacation on the beach with my family!!
noelani
Wow, generous blog candy! I'm in competition for many bloggers! But I'll leave a comment all the same and wish and hope! LOL...My favorite place for embellishments and DP isn't online, but a locally ownded store, sorry. For ideas on scrapbooking, I got to Memory Makers Magazine and for what I'm doing this summer? Traveling, camping, demoing my new stamp company (H&M Stamps at www.handmstamps.com)...I'm thinking about even doing CHA this year in Chicago! Ok, that was my novel, lol...and thank you for my chance to win Alli!
Storm chasing would definately be a great vacation for me! Tornados fascinate me but I've never seen one in real life. I'd have to find some Wizard of Oz stamps to send out cards and tell friends about my summer adventures!
Just recently found your blog, its great.
I have no idea what I'm doing this summer, but I can tell you what my favourite online supplier is...
Addicted to Rubber Stamps, it has TONS of stuff available.
Heres the link:
http://www.addictedtorubberstamps.com
I just love your blog!! Thanks for the chance to win your beautiful stamp set. I love everything Papertreyink and this set is on my wishlist but the shipping to Canada has gotten so high!!
Tracey A
My big summer plans consist of trying to find a house so we can get out of the yucky rental we're in AND...GET MARRIED...WOO HOO!!!
Charmaine
I love a bunch of online shopping sites. Hard to choose. My last purchase was at Ecletic Paperie. Thanks for the chance to win one of your sets! I love your work. I checkout your blog almost once a day.
I love www.scrapsupply.com as an online store. I get inspired by the courses at www.Bigpicturescrapbooking.com
I love your designs and of course, the chance to win Garden of Life stamp set. I'll hold off ordering it to see if I'm lucky enough to win it!! Ahhh--summertime! We, in the school system, always look forward to summertime. I am fortunate to still have my parents in good health, though mid-80s. So, I plan to spend some time with them. Time with them is very valuable. In July, I will dive into an intense year-long training using the Orton-Gillingham method for reading disabilities. Sometime during the summer I hope to clean out closets, etc. And, of course, stamping, stamping, stamping...
oohhh... I love this set.
my favorite idea site is split coast stampers. even tho it is moslty cards I get a lot of technique and color combo ideas there.
ang@todybran.com
love the set! This summer during the 5 days that my husband will actually be with us, we're going to go to the Calgary Zoo, my girls will love it (I hope) I'll love it anyway!
I like www.allthatscraps.com for embellishments. And what am I doing this summer? Driving my kids to swim lessons, ballet lessons, tumbling, soccer, t-ball, park district classes, library classes, and anything else that they're signed up for that I've forgotten o mention. Basically, spending my life in the car. Fun, huh?
Kerry Morgan
My favorite online store is Papertrey Ink. Stamps, paper, containers, etc. All great. Ideas galore are at Splitcoaststampers. Cards, projects, altered items. Terrific places, both of them. Thanks for the offer.
We have a couple of camping trips planned for the summer. As far as where I get my papers and embellishments....well....that would be everywhere. LOL
Thanks for the opportunity, Alli!!
my favorite place to shop online for scrap supplies is scrapgal.com and i love the scarletlime.com for ideas.
I hope I win, I so LOVE your Garden of Life set!!!! This summer I will spend a lot of time hanging out with my two little ones in the kiddie pool in the backyard and celebrating my daughter's first birthday with family!
Melissa
Currently, my favourite online store is A Million Little Things.
I don't really order much online but what I'm doing this summer is having hernia surgery. 6 years ago I had colon cancer and had surgery so the wall in my abdomen is weak, thus the hernia. I watch my grandson through the school year since my daughter is a teacher, so I'll have a summer break recovering from the surgery. You know what that means!? I can sit on my tush and stamp away and not feel guilty for spending so much time doing so! That's the great plus of this situation! Thanks for the chance to win your beautiful set!
Sandy Kay
Woohoo! Awesome set that I would LOVE to have! This summer my hightlight will be attending the Stampin' Up! convention! And hanging out at the pool with my family (with sunscreen on, of course!). Hugs, Jackie
I will be working this summer, but one of the things I will be doing is redoing my craft room. Have some ideas and will be shopping a IKEA for some items to reorganize my space.
What a wonderful stamp set! Thanks for the opportunity to win.
I like to shop with Ellen Hutson, but I have only just begun discovering all the great on-line stores. My summer plans include caring for my 2 year old grand daughter while her parents are away and preparing for my son's wedding in the fall. I will be making the invitations and other assorted decorative items.
Thanks again and thank you for sharing your ideas and talent.
I plan on taking 4 weeks off of work to move into my newly built house - we will be going from a tiny guest house to a >3500 sq ft house. I can't wait - there are so many projects to do when we move in!
Love your blog and thanks for the chance to win this beautiful stamp set.
I will spend my summer getting ready for my DH to leave for Iraq. He leaves in July soo after that the kids and I plan on spending our time keeping busy so as not to be worry so much about him
Hi Alli
Since I am new to this stamping world and still learning all about it, I best let you know my summer plans...so far I plan to be working most of the summer...ugh...not too exciting. I do hope to get up to my family's cottage for some relaxing, too.
Hmmm, since Amy Rysavy posted about the blog reader that google has, I am addicted to visiting TONS of websites for ideas! The sites I go to the most are the DT from Papertrey. They are such a creative bunch of women. They offer me such inspiration. And I feel like I have a whole new set of girlfriends since I have "met" all of you!
Hi, Alli! Thanks for a chance to win your lovely set.
This summer I plan to spend many days at the pool with my daughter and friends. I can't wait :-)
Hi
