Sharon's Party is still Rokin & Rollin!!!!Today the Stamp Simply challenge is to make a cozy comforting card Tammy style. Tammy's style is very clean and cozy. I love the way she sews on most of her cards using designer paper almost always. Here's my take on Tammy's cards, note there is no sewing!! I don't have a sewing machine lol. Thank you for the inspiration Tammy.

My favorite crafting tool is my cutterbug. The reason is that it is compatible with dies from almost every manual die cutting machine on the market which make it indispensible.

I have to say my cuttlebug is my favorite tool. I use it mostly for embossing. I also love ribbon! Thanks for the chance to win!

I would have to say my favorite crafting tool is my Cuttlebug. From embossing to die cutting with so many differenti does, there are so many things that can be done with it.
Posted by: Nancy | September 12, 2008 at 08:27 AM
My favorite tool is my Cricut. I use it all the time to cut out fantastic pieces. I also love to add brads and ribbon to my pages and cards. They give them more pizazz!
I wish I had a cuttlebug! It's my next purchase!

My favorite tool is also my Cuttlebug...marvelous piece of equipment!! embossing...cutting..what's not to like about this tool? Thank you for a chance to win a "never seen before stamp set".

What a gorgeous card! Love the floral image with these beautiful papers!
I'd have to say that brads are my favorite embellishment-- I use them most often-- I love the look of a bit of hardware on a card!

I think my latest favorite embellishment is buttons! Thanks for the chance to play.

Morning! Thanks so much for a chance to win some awesome goodies.
My favorite tool is going to have to be my scissors(the plain old fashioned ones). I am always using my them, and they seem to be more helpful to me then most anything else.
As for favorite embellishment I will have to say skittles, I love the effect they give and the little dimension it gives to the card. Especially on flower centers and such.
Once again thanks a bunch for a chance to win some cool goodies.
Have a wonderful terrific day : o )

What a beautiful card. Thanks for the chance to win some blog candy. My favorite crafting tool of late is my heat gun and embossing powder.
Posted by: Q | September 12, 2008 at 09:22 AM
My favorite tool is my Scor-Pal. I use it every time I stamp. Thanks for helping Sharon celebrate. I would love to win the free set! Darlene

My favorite embellishment has to be ribbon. There is such a huge variety of colours, patterns, textures. What's not to love!

Lately it seems I have been adding buttons to most of my cards. I also love embossing powder...I love watching it change as it is heated.
Thanks for a chance to win and have a great day.

I love my cuttlebug. I also am a ribbon addict! Every card has to have it!! Thanks for the chance to win.
Posted by: Paula | September 12, 2008 at 09:42 AM
Your card is beautiful, Dee! Thanks so much for the chance at the awesome candy!
My favorite tool is my heat tool - I do heat embossing on almost every card I make! And my favorite embellishment is ribbon (or is it brads? lol). Have a great day!

I absolutely love my new Cuttlebug. I only bought it last month and haven't regretted it. I'm sure I'll use it a lot with my cardmaking. Greetings from Belgium, Annelies

The card is absolutely gorgeous! Thanks for offering such great blog candy; whoever wins is one lucky person. The tool used the most is the heat gun, but my favorite thing to use for creating cards is the Cuttlebug!
Posted by: Gigi | September 12, 2008 at 10:02 AM
I love your card! My favorite embellishment is stickles. Adding just a bit of sparkle can really make a card "pop". Thanks for the chance to win some blog candy and thanks too for sharing your talent with all of us.
Posted by: Beverly A | September 12, 2008 at 10:03 AM
My favorite crafting tool/embellishment is ribbon! I love how a simple bow or knot has the ability to completely polish a project.
Posted by: Philomena | September 12, 2008 at 10:07 AM
My favorite embellishment is ribbon - can't live without it. I'm also getting a little addicted to stickles :) Love your card - the mix of patterned paper is really pretty.

Beautiful card! My favorite crafting tools are my Marvey Scallop Punches (I WISH I had spellbinders dies ... someday!) because hardly a card gets made without some use of a punch on the design or sentiment. Fav embellishment? That would have to be my stipple brush, often used with Antique Linen ink to soften the edges or background of my stamped image. Thanks for the opportunity!
Posted by: Kay | September 12, 2008 at 10:19 AM
My favorite embellishment is ribbons and my favorite tool has to be my Scor-Pal. Love them.

I would have to say adding ribbon to a card does it for me...however, I LOVE my Cuttlebug too for embossing!!!
Posted by: Jackie | September 12, 2008 at 10:23 AM
My favorite tool has to be my Tonic cutter. It's just a small tabletop cutter, but it's so sharp it shaves the tiniest bit of paper off an edge to make everything precise. I use it every time I make a card.
I love your gorgeous card with its rich dp and beautiful floral images. It's Wonderful!
Thanks for offering a great prize. It may be an omen that it's being released on my birthday too so count me in :)
