I love to create fun and interesting projects, and I love to share them with you. I love the conversations you and I have about stamping and look forward to hanging out with you every day. But I do have to stop creating every once in a while so that I can give you a little Blog Candy.
As I started clearing out my retired products to make room for all my new papers and ribbons and buttons, I realized I have a lot of great products that are now retired. I said to myself, “Brian, why don’t you just toss all this junk in the trash?!” OK, I didn’t really say that. What I really said was, “Gee, I wish I could send this to one of my loyal blog readers because they are amazing!”
Here’s what I’m offering you today:
- Happy Hello Simply Sent Kit (from Sale-A-Bration 2013)
- Gold Cording (a wonderful accent to holiday projects)
- Button and Ribbon Pack (from Sale-a-Bration 2013)
- Lucky Limeade Ribbon (from Sale-a-Bration 2012)
- Large roll of Green Galore Grosgrain Ribbon
- Pack of Retired Brights Buttons
- Miscellaneous stack of retired Designer Series Paper (cut to 6″ x 6″)

I love that gold twine – thanks for the giveaway!

Really enjoy following your blog and all the wonderful inspiration it provides. I ordered for the first time Swatch Books and they are by far the best reference tool for color combinations. Thanks for all your hard work in making papercrafting such an enjoyable experience.
It is most enjoyable following your blog, Brian. I not only enjoy your “creations” but your sense of humor as well. My girlfriend will be at convention and will try to find you. We hear you are tall! I’m on vacation in OR, WA, and B.C. but have a computer so I am following your blog daily. I’m at another convention now and look forward to seeing more of the beautiful northern west coast. I’m looking forward to arriving home and checking out my new Stampin’ Up order! Enjoy the SU convention!

I think I’m going to break in all the swag I got at your awesome sale (it was such a pleasure to meet all of your friends) to make some invitations to an uber girly princessy tea party that I’m going to have with my girlfriends!
And I’ve got a birthday card I need to make for my nephew. He just turned 15! Holy crap!!!

Seeing your blog every day gives me inspiration to get through my day and reminds me to look at the world in a myriad of ways. So thank you. 🙂
Hi Brian, so excited about your Blog Candy! In my other life I am a basket weaver and twill weave is one of my favorite techniques. So todays herringbone card really caught my eye. Thanks so much for adding the link to your previous herringbone creations and especially the tutorial.
Thanks for the chance for some great stuff!
My week of summer vacation consisted of relaxing at home with my little ones, while my husband helped on a building project for my uncle. Oh well, there’s always Christmas break! 🙂
