    Oh…yum…I love this color you chose this week (and I hoped you were doing your Friday freebie)! My fav set…without a doubt it would be Lovely as a Tree (it is so versatile!). Off to post!

    OOh, what beautiful colors! I think my favorite set right now would have to be SU’s Happy Harmony set. The sentiments match my feelings so well I find myself “borrowing” them to use with other sets. I’ve also used the flower so many times I can’t even count. I especially like if you do the flower in white to make it a dandelion and pair with the “Dreams” sentiment. So sweet. -)

  3. 3 Amy Mar 23rd, 2007 at 9:34 am

    My favorite stamp set that I go to time and time again is Petal Prints! Love these colors, they’re my favorites! Have a great day!

  4. 4 Julie Mar 23rd, 2007 at 9:37 am

    Oh, that’s hard, I really switch and change favorites often, but I think Warm Words is a big favorite now!

  5. 5 Melissa Norris Mar 23rd, 2007 at 9:44 am

    Ooo those colors are soo pretty. The stamp set I’m using the most at the moment is big deal alphabet because I’m making monogram cards. But I think my favorite is polka dot and paisley and happy everything. Very versatile.

    mrgreen

    My all time favorite set I keep turning to is the Unfrogettable one.

  7. 7 mnhyrkas Mar 23rd, 2007 at 10:03 am

    Probably Lovely as a Tree or Art of Life are my most used sets.

  8. 8 YM Mar 23rd, 2007 at 10:04 am

    I love the colourse!!!

    When ever i answer this question I keep saying Happy Harmony, but I think it will be my all time favourite since it’s new. From my limited sets the one I use the most is Something to celebrate!

  9. 9 Jan Harrington Mar 23rd, 2007 at 10:05 am

    My all-time favorite is SU’s In Full Bloom.

  10. 10 Jana Mar 23rd, 2007 at 10:10 am

    Love these colors…reminds me of an orange creamscicle! Very pretty!!

    favorite, all time stamp set is hard for me. Guess I’ll be lame and say Sincere Salutations, because it is just so versatile!

    Thanks,
    Jana

  11. 11 Jenny Mar 23rd, 2007 at 10:15 am

    I just love these colors. I have to say my favorite right now is Nice & Easy Notes. -)

  12. 12 Janet Marks Mar 23rd, 2007 at 10:18 am

    That is a very tough question. I can’t narrow it down to one but Stipple butterfly and lovely as a tree is right up there. I know I will think of at least four others as soon as I submit this comment. I love your blog candy!! Janet in NC

  13. 13 Tracy Mar 23rd, 2007 at 10:29 am

    The citrus colour makes me feel like summer is coming! My favorite stamp set right now is SU Bundle of Joy. Hope you have a good weekend!

  14. 14 SHan Mar 23rd, 2007 at 10:48 am

    I Love the loads of love set but lately ive been using lots of the delight in life…..I love them all …

  15. 15 Karen Mar 23rd, 2007 at 10:51 am

    My favs are background stamps as you can use them with almost anything! My absolute favorite is Itty Bitty Backgrounds. I can’t believe it took me years to order that one! I also love the linen background.

  16. 16 Cher K. Mar 23rd, 2007 at 10:59 am

    Right now my favorite stamp set is Doodle This.
    Great blog candy!
    -Cher

  17. 17 Tracie Labonté Mar 23rd, 2007 at 11:37 am

    My current favorite is Simply Said - I love its versatility!

  18. 18 Cindy Young Mar 23rd, 2007 at 11:40 am

    Hey Nicole, my favorite stamp set is In Full bloom. I love the little bee. Where do you find the little turn mounts? My mom and I are always looking for them, and I dont want to buy the whole Hodgepodge hardware just for them. Can they be purchased somewhere separately? Anyway, take care!

  19. 19 Jen Mar 23rd, 2007 at 11:40 am

    Wow what bright and cheery blog candy!
    Oh so hard to decide my favorite! I really like Petal Prints so I think that one is my favorite…at least for now -)

  20. 20 Nancy Grant Mar 23rd, 2007 at 11:58 am

    Swirly Gigs from TAC. I know that it’s relatively new but it was the first set I took out of the pack and was able to make something right away. I love it!
    ~Nancy Grant

  21. 21 Sharon in NE Mar 23rd, 2007 at 12:45 pm

    How wonderful to go down memory lane and review those stamps. My most cherished and used rather surprised me. It is Lovely As a Tree. I guess because it is for all seasons, all occasions, could go manly or even feminine. Just something about the nature prints that provides comfort and I especially like these prints. (Great question smile )

  22. 22 Michelle Mar 23rd, 2007 at 1:18 pm

    Darling collection of embellishments! My favorite set is probably Heartfelt Thanks. I love the flowers and turn to them over and over again.

  23. 23 Amy Mar 23rd, 2007 at 1:19 pm

    I love this week’s colors! It’s spring with a vengeance!

    I keep going back to unfrogettable, but that’s more because it is something of an inside joke with someone than it is because it is my favorite. Although it is an awfully cute set…

  24. 24 laura j Mar 23rd, 2007 at 1:23 pm

    The canvas background isn’t a “set” but it’s my most used SU stamp! Thanks for offering the weekly blog candy! Have a great day!

  25. 25 Deanne Mar 23rd, 2007 at 1:33 pm

    The stamp set turn to most often is Tags and More (SU). I just love the dragon fly, and the candles come in handy way too often!

    I love your blog and the nifty cards you show. I will come back when I need a boost of inspiration! Thanks! grin

  26. 26 Cheryl Kelly-Van Domelen Mar 23rd, 2007 at 1:52 pm

    What a beautiful set! My favorite stamp set is Stampin’ Up’s Alphabits. I cut out the letters and use them all the time on tags and cards. Thanks!

  27. 27 Janet B Mar 23rd, 2007 at 2:26 pm

    My fav stamp has to be my Bella’s. Nothing better than a Bella.

    Thanks for sharing.

    Janet B

  28. 28 Vickie (sunshinevickie) Mar 23rd, 2007 at 2:28 pm

    Wow! What a pretty color combo!
    The set I go to the most is In Full Bloom,
    followed closely by Roses in Winter.
    If I’m stamping for a friend and not a class
    it’s Nature’s Wonder (retired SAB set).

  29. 29 Joy Nicol Mar 23rd, 2007 at 3:10 pm

    I like many of the sets, but I have had fun with the big blossom from Sellabration!

  30. 30 Linda SS Mar 23rd, 2007 at 3:11 pm

    I look forward each week to see what yummy colors you come up with:) My favorite set is Wild about You.
    Linda SS

  31. 31 Karen (stampin3) Mar 23rd, 2007 at 3:15 pm

    Oohh tough question - I LOVE floral sets, so really…any SU floral set would be tops on my list! I love how they are just so versatile. Love the orange color and the ‘hat pin’!!

  32. 32 Claudia F. Mar 23rd, 2007 at 3:22 pm

    My favorite is Happy Harmony.
    Claudia F.

  33. 33 Regina Davis Mar 23rd, 2007 at 3:30 pm

    My favorite set is Both Ways Blossoms. I use it all the time!

  34. 34 Leah Mar 23rd, 2007 at 4:45 pm

    mmmm yummy! makes me in the mood for some orange sherbert )

  35. 35 doverdi Mar 23rd, 2007 at 5:16 pm

    What a pretty choice of colors. I just love the hat pin. I really don’t have too many SU sets so I haven’t yet gotten attached to any of them. I guess if I had to say one it would be the Winged Things.

  36. 36 Dawnmercedes Mar 23rd, 2007 at 5:30 pm

    This reminds me of a creamcicle!

  37. 37 Teryl Mar 23rd, 2007 at 5:36 pm

    Just found your blog! Looks fantatic.
    As for favorite stamp set, I’d say Petal Prints is my all time favorite. More Petal Prints and Roses in Winter are a close second.

  38. 38 Rochelle Wick Mar 23rd, 2007 at 5:47 pm

    I am going to have to say Roses in Winter and In Full Bloom.

  39. 39 Lois H Mar 23rd, 2007 at 6:05 pm

    What a hard question!!!!! I guess I’ll go with a background stamp–canvas. It adds a lot of punch! Lois H

  40. 40 Bonnie Weiss Mar 23rd, 2007 at 7:40 pm

    Yummy colour of yummy blog candy! My favourite stamp set would be Summer by the Sea…love to be reminded about my youth.

  41. 41 Rita Mar 23rd, 2007 at 7:54 pm

    Wow, that’s a hard one. I like the flowers so I’ll say Petal Prints. Tomorrow it will be something else……..

  42. 42 Linda C. Mar 23rd, 2007 at 7:54 pm

    Gorgeous color blog candy!! My favorite set would be Petal Prints.

  43. 43 Ilene B Mar 23rd, 2007 at 7:57 pm

    I don’t know that it’s a favorite but I use Lovely as a Tree a lot. A favorite at the moment would be Wild About You! It’s adorable. You got me hooked on these hat pins! JoAnn’s just had them on sale & I picked up some for myself & my DIL. Thank you for the treats (cards & candy)

  44. 44 Sherri Lonar Mar 23rd, 2007 at 8:20 pm

    I really love Petal Prints!

  45. 45 ~Lana B.~ Mar 23rd, 2007 at 8:29 pm

    If I need a card, I run to my Wild Rose set by SU! It is so versatile. Those are such sweet colors in your candy…makes me want a creamsicle! LOL
    ~Lana B.~

  46. 46 pegg Mar 23rd, 2007 at 8:29 pm

    Very pretty colors!
    My favorite set is Sincere Salutations ~ ) It’s a great set and there is a sentiment for any card you make! I haven’t been doing this long enough to have used a (focal) set more than a couple of times!

  47. 47 Alexa W. Mar 23rd, 2007 at 10:00 pm

    My favorite set (that i have) is All Wrapped Up. It’s great for making little boy cards.

  48. 48 Melissa Banian Mar 23rd, 2007 at 10:15 pm

    Favorite stamp set. . . . hmmmmm, that is so hard because I’m so fickle. Can I say floral? LOL! Probably whatever is my newest set! LOL!

  49. 49 Kerry Mar 23rd, 2007 at 10:21 pm

    Hi,
    I just found your blog through SCS. This year, the stamp set I seem to gravitate towards over and over is Because of You. There’s just something about those two flowers and the little ladybug.

    Kerry

  50. 50 Marilyn McFadden Mar 23rd, 2007 at 11:14 pm

    My favorite SU stamp set is In Full Bkoom, with Lovely As A Tree a close second, but I could go on and on. Thank you for the lovely blog candy you are giving away.

  51. 51 Mary C. Anderson Mar 23rd, 2007 at 11:24 pm

    This is my first time visiting your blog. It will not be the last. I enjoyed the tutorials that you have and loved looking at all of your pretty cards. Have a nice weekend.

    Mary

  52. 52 Kandi Kwirant Mar 24th, 2007 at 3:22 am

    Autumn Leaves Swirl Set
    You can use it in so many ways
    and with almost any other stamp.
    Kandi

  53. 53 Denise Mar 24th, 2007 at 6:55 am

    I am fickle…I reach for whatever is newest in my stack….right now it’s my Rhonna Farrer swirls…

  54. 54 Terry Molineux Mar 24th, 2007 at 7:14 am

    My favorite stamp set retired….Hand-Painted Petites. That set was so easy to stamp the 2 step….I felt so confident every time I used it…..What great blog candy love the colors!!!!

  55. 55 Julie S. Mar 24th, 2007 at 7:24 am

    What pretty summery blog candy! I would have to say that right now my favorite set is any of the florals. Time and time again I always pull to the florals for every kind of card it seems. I am expecially fond of Happy Harmony right now.

  56. 56 Connie Mar 24th, 2007 at 7:33 am

    First visit to your site…I am new to stamping and I’m hooked!
    Just received my first SU stamps last week, I have to say I am using the pundits the most. I will have to get my hands on the Lovely as a Tree stamp set by the sound of it! Love this blog, what a great idea!

  57. 57 Kim Kowal Mar 24th, 2007 at 8:02 am

    Great colors this week!! Wow one stamp set…that is tough, I don’t think I can narrow it down to just one but maybe the two most favorite sets that I go to the most would be Petal Prints and Roses in Winter, that doesn’t include any verses,lol. Love your blog!!

  58. 58 Skye Mar 24th, 2007 at 8:11 am

    My favorite stamp set is from Green Grass stamps and about 20 unmounted peices for greeting cards. There are a few photocorners I use a lot in my scrapping, but the saying are so nice for quick cards.

  59. 59 Kimmie Mar 24th, 2007 at 8:19 am

    My fave set would have to be Roses in Winter. It’s so easy to make a classy lookin’ card with that one!!

  60. 60 Jennifer Hensley Mar 24th, 2007 at 8:20 am

    My fav set really is Wild about you. I have used it for everything from baby, kids both genders, hubby……..etc. I just love those animals. lol

  61. 61 Nancy Kurul Mar 24th, 2007 at 9:07 am

    Gentler Times, Stipple Rose, Toile Blossoms, Fantastic Foliage, Autumn and Wonderful Wings for retired - oh, and Carte Postale should be classified in this category too now, right?

    For current? Lovely as a Tree, Paisley and Floral backgrounds.

    I guess I have the botanical theme going on (OOOH - I almost forgot Botanicals for retired!). Who can just pick one??!?!?!?

    Thanks for asking!

    Nancy

  62. 62 Aimee Mar 24th, 2007 at 9:26 am

    mine would be roses in winter….your blog is great. TFS

  63. 63 Leslie (StampinLeslie) Mar 24th, 2007 at 9:41 am

    Gorgeous! Just gorgeous!

    My favorite set? Mixed Bouquet. (I think that’s what it’s called!)

    But it’s changing all the time!

  64. 64 AJ Mar 24th, 2007 at 12:08 pm

    I would have to say petal prints is my all time fave. I have many, but I so love that set!!!! Interesting reading on your blog btw, thanks for all the info!

  65. 65 Monika/buzsy Mar 24th, 2007 at 12:54 pm

  66. 66 Cheryl Mar 24th, 2007 at 2:01 pm

    My most favorite stamp set is Roses in Winter. You can not mess this up at all. It is always beautiful. thanks for another colorful giveaway.

  67. 67 jodene Mar 24th, 2007 at 3:12 pm

    My favorite stamp set is,well I have two.At christmas I use Its snow time a lot.For the rest of the year I would say I use Painted posies.I do also want to tell you my new stamp set Big blossoms is fast becoming one I will use over and over!

  68. 68 Mo Moss Mar 24th, 2007 at 3:27 pm

    It would be hard for me to single out just one set. Maybe one of the most used is Lovely as a Tree. I also like In Full Bloom. You can show me any of your cards,and suddenly that set that you are using could be my favorite for the day. Mo

  69. 69 kathy foy Mar 24th, 2007 at 5:46 pm

    My favorite was always unfrogetable but now I tend to pull out crab and company….I just love that crab he is so cute. what a great vibrant blog candy its soooo sunny

  70. 70 ronee Mar 24th, 2007 at 8:07 pm

    I love the orange. It is one of my favorite colors. So my go to stamp set…interesting enough it is whimiscal alpha. I must use that stamp set ALL the time. BUT I enjoy making personalized things..so I have TONS of alphas..and still go back to that one!! I can’t wait to see where the candy goes!
    xoxo
    ronee

  71. 71 Susie Mar 24th, 2007 at 8:14 pm

    Weeelllllll…. the one I turn to most often is Happy Harmony, but my favorite is now Petals & Paisley. I use every stamp in this set often, whereas I have many sets that I only use one or two of the stamps and the rest sit collecting dust.

  72. 72 Java Judi Mar 24th, 2007 at 9:22 pm

    I collect anything with Pears so I would have to say I love Fresh Fruits that retired about a year or so ago. I also often use Print Pattern background stamp.

  73. 73 Lynda K Mar 25th, 2007 at 3:38 pm

    My favorite stamp set is SU’s In Full Bloom. So very versatile for any occasion.
    Lynda

  74. 74 Cristina Mar 25th, 2007 at 4:54 pm

    Orange is my friend Tami’s favourite colour! As for my favourite set, currently it’s Rhonna Farrere’s Flourishes. I can add a lil’ flourish whenever a card just needs a little something more. It’s more of a ‘behind the scenes’ set. =)
    Cristina

  75. 75 Eleanor Bishop Mar 25th, 2007 at 6:17 pm

    What a nice prize to win!!!!! Ok, my Fav. stamp set is and always will be “summer by the sea” there is so much you can do with this S.U. set.

  76. 76 Kerrie Mar 25th, 2007 at 10:04 pm

    Loving the orange colors! My favorite SU! set still has to be In Full Bloom.
