Thank you for the fun giveaway! I am a card maker and actually began as a scrapbooker years ago but always had trouble working around the photos. Cards are a smaller project and I can try new techniques without worrying about photo layouts. I love using my Big Shot die cut machine and trying to improve my coloring skills. Happy 2018!!
ReplyDeleteI love papercrafting. This past may, I received an Inspired Bible for creative journaling. Either prize will work for me as the bible journaling giveaway would encourage me to get busy. I think I have only colored or journaled in it 3 times since I received it.
ReplyDeleteThank you for your wonderful giveaway! I am a Bible journaler.
ReplyDeleteThank you for all of the inspiration and Happy New Year! Erika (erika_zak@hotmail.com)
ReplyDeleteWow!! That’s a great way to share kindness!! Thank you so much everyone for coming together! :) Happy New Year :)
ReplyDeleteI'm a card maker and would love to try new techniques be it stamping, interactive, 3D, mini albums, etc. I'm always obsessed with my scoring board as that is the first to start any card I make :)
What a lovely gift you are giving away! I love your work and look forward to seeing what you create in 2018! My goal this year is to build up my followers and create with images that make everyone smile like projects you have shared in the past! kren @ http://afourthlife.blogspot.com
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year! Thank you for inspiring me to create throughout 2017 and here's to more fun in 2018. This year I hope to find more time to create and my resolution is to create at least 10 cards a month. isabelzito at verizon dot net Thank you.
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for your inspiration! Happy New Year! floresfour@aol.com
ReplyDeleteI would love the Bible Journaling prize! I’ve been Journaling for a few months and have been admiring the IF kits! I got several new crafty things for Christmas but my favorites are probably my scan n cut and my arteza brush markers!
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year! Great prizes... one of my goals this year is to be more committed to my bible journaling!
ReplyDeleteI am an avid card maker-I attended a friends stamping class and was hooked! As far as a obsession for a tool, I don't have one in particular, I love them all Happy 2018!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the opportunity. Love the first prize. I became addicted to card making through a work acquaintance, so she created a monster😏
ReplyDeleteHappy New year! I am a card maker and transitioned to that from scrapbooking. Right now I am obsessed with my watercolors... I know that's not really a "tool", but it is what it is. 😊
ReplyDeleteAmazing:)! Happy New Year:)!
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year! I enjoy making cards, and this last fall found a Stampin’ Up demonstrator who holds classes a couple times a month. She is a great source of inspiration for me!
ReplyDeleteCardmaker (previously scrapbooker). I have been (slowly) practicing my colored pencil skills!
ReplyDeleteI am a card maker form 2009 when a fellow teacher invited me to a SU! Party! It was instant love...Can't draw worth a lick but stamping gave me an outlet to show artistic talent. Big shot is my stamping go to tool, can't seem to make a card without. My daughter gave me a new iPad for Christmas so I can be inspired by Pinterest anytime...anyplace!
ReplyDeleteI am a card maker. Thank you for the opportunity to win a great prize! I started this journey creating a memory book for my grandmother with my sister. We both then just started using our supplies to create cards. I am currently obsessed with my MISTI and my new turn about stamps. I am also in love with some of my new scripture stampnsets I have recently purchased. Thank you again!
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year, Kyra! Here's to a healthy and joyful 2018. Thank you for offering a generous giveaway! Your projects are beautiful and inspirational. xoxo
ReplyDeleteFirstly Happy New Year, then thank you for being so generous in your give-away and I was so excited when I saw little critters in the SU stamp set you were offering and then I was sad again :O( because I live in the UK and you are not shipping to us. So let me just say happy 2018! :O)
ReplyDeleteWhat a cute card and a great prize! I'm definitely a card maker, and like most I got into it by attending an SU! party and was hooked! Thanks for the chance to win!
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year! I am a cardmaker, and I got into the craft when somebody offered me an opportunity to be on a design team and I said yes! I've been busy ever since! Have a wonderful 2018! Thanks for being a part of this!
ReplyDeleteI come from a long line of crafters and enjoy a number of mediums but paper crafting is my current passion, specifically card making. I am currently trying to incorporate more mixed media in my projects. Best wishes for a wonderful 2018!
ReplyDeleteI'm a card maker. Wonderful prizes you're offering.
ReplyDeleteI dabble in everything :) Mostly I am a card maker. I have found it relaxing and also a ministry to send them out to others. Helps deal with chronic pain and the isolation of my disability and helps make me still feel useful! Win-win 💜
ReplyDeleteP.S. your link to Believe is broken!
ReplyDeleteI'm new to paper craft and have found I really enjoy making cards to give to people to brighten their day.
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year! I am a card maker, too old school to deface my bible but I appreciate those that do. I am currently obsessed with scapbooking, though I love making cards too. For Christmas, I got myself some amazing new stamps, lol. Thank you for the chance to win.
ReplyDeleteI started as a scrapbooker...just hoping to keep a record of God's goodness to our family. That led to card making which I also adore. Last year, I started with some Bible journaling and am still working on my style, but find it to be a blessing. My favorite Christmas gift was a shopping spree at a stamp store we found while traveling. Everything was half off...I purchased more goodies than I have ever had at one time. Right now, I am obsessed with finding my TH scissors that went missing during a last-minute crafting frenzy to complete a scrapbook for gift giving. Glad to have found your blog!
ReplyDeleteI am a card maker. Love creating something on my own.
ReplyDeleteI am a card maker these days. But I started in crafting when my mom taught me how to cross stitch when I was 21. And then it turned into scrapbooking and then card making. Thank you for such an awesome giveaway. Hope your 2018 will be a blessed one. rebyah1 @ gmail dotcom
ReplyDeletehi! cardmaking came from my former luv of painting larger-scale oil/acrylic/watercolor projects. I wanted to scale down but not give up the art :)
ReplyDeleteI am a card maker and journaler. I started and continue as a scrapbooker as well, a friend introduced me to cardmaking and I joined a journal group and now we're a sisterhood with strong bonds. Thanks for the chance to win, Happy New Year!
ReplyDeleteI'm a card maker and learning more all the time!
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year! I am a cardmaker as my daughter, Jillian got me into it when she was 10! And I am hooked!
ReplyDeleteI am currently using Nuvo Glaze to add something something to my projects. I am a cardmaker.
ReplyDeletethank you for a chance to win! I am a cardmaker and started on a very cold and wintery day in november of 1996! I was staying with my SIL and a bad storm hit and i couldn't get home. She introduced me to rubberstamping and i was hooked!
ReplyDeleteI'm a bible journaler and a card maker.
ReplyDeleteI think the bible journaling kit
would be best for me. I'm always
need more inspiration for my pages.
If someone before me wants that kit,
I'll be thrilled with the card kit.
thanks for the offer.
Happy new Year

I'm a card maker and scrapbooker, drawn to it by my crafty friends. Most often used tool lately is my MISTI. I haven't bought my Christmas present yet :)

DeleteI am a card maker who started as a scrapbooker back in 1988 when my son was a baby. I've just been doing paper crafts continually since then! I've always been obsessed with punches and punch art, and my newest tool obsession is using dies in my big shot. Something special from Christmas for our family was seeing my mom healthy and thriving again! Just one month earlier, the doctors said that she experienced a miracle that has no medical explanation. To go from scared to death a month earlier that my mom had a fatal disease (P.C.---I can't even say the two words now!!), and to have her no longer have any sign of it was definitely something special for us to be thankful for at Christmas. Thanks for giving away awesome prizes for this blog hop!! Happy New Year!
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year! Thank you for sharing your talent with us. I have wanted to start Bible journaling, but haven't. I do love to make cards.
ReplyDeleteI love to make cards and scrapbook family events. I would be proud to win either kit, and thank you for the opportunity.
ReplyDeleteHAPPY NEW YEAR 2018
I picked up the Chameleon markers and I'm trying to learn to use them. I thought they would be easier but I am finding them a challenge. I am a card maker. Thanks for the chance. Happy New Year
ReplyDeleteI’m a card maker and scrapbooking got me started into paper crafts. Thank you for the kind giveaway! sew7752@aol.com
ReplyDeleteI am an avid card maker, but am interested in trying Bible journaling. Too hard to choose!
ReplyDeleteI am a card maker. One of my favorite tools is my Misti. I originally started scrapbooking, but found that I loved making cards. Thanks for a chance to win a fun prize. Hope you have a blessed and happy new year.
ReplyDeleteI don’t know what Bible Journaling is, but it intrigues me. I’ll have to research that. So I guess I’m a card maker, for now. :-)
ReplyDeleteI bought my first stamp set years ago with a promise to myself that if I did get into this craft/hobby, I would not purchase greeting cards, and I’d always make them. That was about 20 years ago, and I’ve been true to my promise!
My current craft tool obsession is the MISTI. I don’t know how I’ve lived without it til now!
I didn’t get any special craft supplies for Christmas, but my DH did get me 5 lovely Pandora charms, and I think they are extra special, and so is he!
I've been an avid scrapbooker for almost 20 years. Last Christmas I started making cards and giving packages of 12 as little "extra" gifts. People seemed to like them so I continued this year.
ReplyDeleteI am a card maker and would love to win this prize. A lovely gift of kindness. A lovely card you designed. Thanks for the inspiration and all the acts of kindness. Happy New Year!
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing, happy new year to you and all!
ReplyDeleteA kit will be a good started for anyone! I am obsessed with watercoloring and no line coloring right now!
I have always been more of cardmaker myself, however recently I have started branching out into bible journaling. Both have been such blessing to me, allows me to draw deeper into my spiritual life and my creative side. Thanks for your inspiration!
ReplyDeleteI'm a cardmaker and I've been looking at the Good Day set in the new catalog! I got into cardmaking because my daughter worked with a demonstrator who invited us to a party. My daughter didn't like it, but I did.
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun giveaway for card making.
ReplyDeleteHAPPY 2018! I'm a card maker and it has given me an opportunity to stay in touch with all of my close friends being as we have all scattered across the country! Though I would much rather spend a week (yearly) in the Caribbean with my friends, alas.....life gets in the way! So, cards it is......
ReplyDeleteThanks you so much for your blog posts. I so enjoyed looking through your artwork. I hope you don't mind that I commented on some of them. You have such talent. It is so exciting to see a stampin up give away! I haven't gotten into bible journaling yet so would rather have the card kit if I had the privilege of winning. Thanks so much for your generous give away1
ReplyDeleteThanks for your great giveaway. I would pick the card making kit. Wishing you a wonderful New Year.
ReplyDeleteWow! I am a Bible Journaler, so I would love to win the Bible journaling goodies! I am currently obsessed with lettering pens! I started learning how to handletter, and it is quite addictive! Happy new year!
ReplyDeleteI am a cardmaker. My sister got me started on it several years ago and I love it! Thanks for a chance to win. Happy New Year.
ReplyDeleteWow - what awesome giveaway ideas! I love both - am a cardmaker for years, but just started bible journaling. Happy 2018!
ReplyDeleteI am more of a card maker than a Bible journaler but I do like to make Christian cards and I am working on an unfinished Scripture journal so either would be fine.

I am a card maker, I was introduced to it by my mother many years, ago, but still a hoppy that I love.

ReplyDeleteI wish you a happy and crafty fun 2018. (I am an avid cardmaker.)
ReplyDeleteHappy happy New Year!
Hello & Happy New Year. Pleased to meet you for the first time, I've just started to make cards, my therapist suggested taking up a hobby that involved skills I had already to keep me interested in doing anything. So I have several art qualifications, so I accidentally saw a designer on You Tube & I just wanted to join in, now 3 months later I'm addicted. x
ReplyDeleteI am a card maker, I actually never heard of bible journaler. I do scrapbooking
ReplyDeleteWonderful prizes! I am a card maker and started out stamping when my daughter was little! I thought it would be great fun to make invitations for her birthday party, etc. She was 5 at the time.... and is now 35!
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year! I am enjoying this awesome hop!

Sign me up for the Bible Journaling give away! Thanks so much! Happy 2018!
ReplyDeleteI'm a card maker but I enjoy many paper crafting projects and cross stitching when I have time. Pinterest got me started! While looking for cross stitch patterns, I came across all sorts of paper crafting ideas, and I've been hooked since. My favorite tool right now is the Cuttlebug!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the generous prize. Happy New Year! I'm a card maker and love it because it doesn't take much time because I can't stay focused for more than an hour or two on a craft, found that out after trying a million different crafts. Card making gets my creativity out and I have a product within minutes!
ReplyDeleteHappy 2018! Resolution to ink all my Stamps!
ReplyDeleteI'm a card maker, and Stampin Up is a big help in that process. Haven't tried Bible journaling

ReplyDeleteI’m a card maker! I started making Christmas cards years ago as my creative outlet! For Christmas this year my husband gifted me with a die cut and embossing machine!!!
ReplyDeleteLoving your Just Because card!
ReplyDeleteI'm definitely a card maker.
Happy New Year!
I am a card maker and scrapbooker. I was first drawn into it by my sister-in-law who scrapbooks a little bit and created some beautiful pages. I started dabbling and then a friend invited me to a CTMH party hosted by her friend and I have been addicted ever since. I moved into cards after taking technique classes that always focused on cards, so now I do both. I think that I'm addicted to all craft supplies lol! I've been using a bunch of different tools lately, spreading out my love for the tools that I currently own. I'm hopoing to be more organized in my crafting this year!
ReplyDeleteMy Mom was creative and she use to silk screen Christmas cards every year. This is probably why I like to stamp and ink cards and thing. I hope to set more time out to do this in the New Year.
ReplyDeleteI'm a card maker. My current crafty tool that I use the most is my MISTI! I honestly don't remember how I got into card making, but it's the first hobby that I've stuck with for a long period of time.
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year, Kyra!!! Thank you for the giveaway. I am a cardmaker and I received a Gemini for Christmas from my hubby. I am so fortunate and grateful and plan on using it often. ♥
ReplyDeleteI enjoy making cards and hope to find and participate in card drives. Happy 2018!!!
ReplyDeleteI try to become a card maker ! And I’ve drawn into this thank to Jennifer McGuire !

Happy New Year...Thank you for the wonderful opportunity to win a great gift...To be honest I would enjoy either gift...I have many "tools" I love but I am new to stamping and coloring so they are my go to's for now.
ReplyDeleteI am a card maker (love that Stampin up set) but also love the illustrated faith range and am sure that could be used on cards too. I am eagerly awaiting a scan n cut machine and am super excited to use it this year. I find card making so relaxing, especially with a two year old to run after.
ReplyDeleteI am a card maker!! Thanks so much for a chance to win!!
ReplyDeleteWhat cute cards. Thanks for the giveaway.
ReplyDeleteI'm a card maker and love Stampin up. I like cards because they are a smaller project. Thank You for the giveaway and Happy New Year.

card making is my fav. cute cards.
ReplyDeleteI love card making (I'm a Zen Buddhist so not so much into Bible journaling. Is there a version for the Compassionate Teachings? Oh there totally should be! :)) and I love that Stampin' Up set. And bunnies, too! Do you have your own? I have fostered a few house rabbits for rescue in the past. Adorable, clever animals.

remove the dots and fix the at. Writing it this way in comments seems to help prevent spam. Thanks!
Oops! I got so distracted by the bunnies, I forgot to include my favorite tool. It's an old one, but I still rely on my Cropadile all the time! It helps punch things I put into my planner, makes holes for brads, and so on. I love it! (Oh and I'm a cardmaker, in case this gets separated from my other comment.)

I love the cardmaking prize. Your cards are truly inspirational, and I adore that they are faith based.
ReplyDeleteHi Bunny!
ReplyDeleteMy favorite tool is my embossing machine. Couldn't craft without it. I love cutting wool felt and all textures. Thanks for taking part in this fabulous event. I'm so grateful.

I have been crafting my whole life. My favorite tool is the MISTI. It has been a huge game changer for me. I come from a family of 12 and have been making card since I was 4. I would be happy with either prize but would prefer the set for carmakers.
ReplyDeleteI am a card maker and would love to win the card package. My favorite tool right now is my MISTI, really helps my stamping look so good! My email I phlower51@gmail.com
ReplyDeleteBeautiful inspiration! Thanks for sharing and the chance to win!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful inspiration! Thanks for sharing and the chance to win!
ReplyDeleteI am truly a card maker, having started in Scrapbooking, so changed to cards, tell myself that I will use this stamp on my scrap layout, lol!
ReplyDeleteDarling!! I'm a cardmaker by necessity... it was getting way too expensive to send the many Thank You cards to my dear, supportive friends. So now I spend WAY more $$ on supplies. lol! The MISTI is my all-time favorite most helpful tool. I just got some dcomer1 {at} gmail
ReplyDeleteLove my diecutter! More interested in the card-making prize. Thanks for the opportunity to win!
ReplyDeleteI'm a card maker and I love crafting. My favorite tool right now is my Sidekick!!
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year. I am a card maker. I love the card you created.
ReplyDeleteI started paper crafting when I went in our local office supply store and it had a scrapbooking section. I went to a class and started scrapbooing a trip to Thailand I took with Compassion International and then my puppy. From there, I moved to stamping and making cards. It was faster and I didn't have a lot of scrapworthy events in my life! I'm not exactly obsessed with it, but I love the MISTI and use it almost every time I am able to make a card. I love that you have a Bible Journaling package to give away. I am a Christian but have never done Bible Journaling, so if I am chosen I would prefer the stamp set, however I'm sure I could find something to do with the other package as well. Happy New Year!
ReplyDeleteI'm a card maker, and I started because I wanted to let my nieces know I was thinking about them while they lived overseas last year (with their parents, of course). I used to write long letters to my siblings while they were overseas, but my nieces are currently 3.5 and 2, so even now, words aren't really their thing, so I got into making cards. The sweetest fruit of this was at one point when I visited them, and I was watching a card-making video, and my older niece pointed to the screen and said "Auntie Lisa card!" so I know that she knows who they're from and that I love her and her sister. But anyway, will you believe that one of my favorite tools is scor-tape? I used to completely hate liquid glue. Now I get it somewhat, but I still love the ease of scor-tape and the knowledge that it will stay together no matter what.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the giveaway and happy crafty 2018 to you!I would choose the bible journaling prize.I wana try more techniques
ReplyDeleteI have a journaling Bible, but I haven't started much with it yet. I'd love to start though. My favorite tool is my cricut. I received lots of new paper and a quilling set for Christmas.
ReplyDeleteSuch lovely inspiration! I love making cards, layouts and mixed media canvases! Happy New YEar!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous cards, Thanks for your generous participation in this Season of Giving Event! I am a cardmaker but I would love to get into Bible journaling if I can find a Large Print journaling Bible.
ReplyDeleteI am card maker who loooooooves die cutting and multi layer cards. No such thing as too many stamps and dies!
ReplyDeleteI make cards. I haven't yet started Bible journaling. I was undergoing radiation several years ago and entered a contest for a bunch of craft things. To my surprise I won and got all sorts of goodies that started my cardmaking. I'm learning to use Distress Oxide Inks now and having a ball! Thank you for your wonderful giveaway!
ReplyDeleteThank you for sharing and giving your talent and your gifts. I am a card maker and truly appreciate the opportunity to enter your giveaway. May God richly bless you for your giving heart. Diana O emichaels12@hotmail.com
ReplyDeleteI am a card maker, but I do also love the scriptures. I started out trying to scrapbook my children's lives. But I have 7, it's hard to get caught up. I love my Misti stamping tool and a good paper cutter! I didn't get a single scrapbooking item for Christmas, does my family EVEN know me?? Ha ha. Happy New Year!
