My favorite tutorial was Watercolors and Stamps.
As much as I admire the beautiful results with those copic pens, I simply can't splurge on them right now. After seeing this tutorial, I pulled out my trusty set of Winsor & Newton watercolor paints and tried the technique myself. I really like the results. Thanks again for your encouragement.
Definitely, Heat Embossing 101 was the best tutorial for me! Thanks for a great year and Happy Anniversary!
I agree with Trica, the heat embossing tutorial is great!
There are so many great altered items and products to learn how to use, but I found that putting beads on cards is probably the most frugal idea I've seen. Surely every crafter has beads they haven't used - and they look cute in so many different ways. Thanks.

my favourite of all time has been the monogram canvas ... i so loved this project.
I have only recently come across your blog & I am looking forward to going back to see all these great tutorials...being newer to stamping, I am very grateful for tutorials to learn new techniques.
The watercolor pencil one was my favorite as far as useful goes. I also liked the multi layer flower one.

The watercolors and stamps tutorial is great but so is the button ornament tutorial. I adapted the button one to make a button bracelet. Love your tutorials
I loved the multi-layered flower the best. All of your tutorials are brilliant tho :)
My fav. is the scrapbook page in a jar. I would of never thought to do that! So wonderful! Happy anniversary!
I just found your blog about 6 mos. ago but I really liked the butterfly tutorial a few days ago and I also liked the gift giving idea you gave in Nov. with the chocolate covered spoons. Thanks for the giveaway and happy anniversary!
Happy anniversary. I haven't been following too long, but my favorite of the ones I have viewed is container gardening. thanks for all the idea!
I have to say that the glimmer misting over the screen and the card made out of it was fantastic. So glad you did not just disband, this has been a constant source of inspiration for me!
I appreciate the twinkling H2Os tutorial. I bought some and didn't really know what to do with them - now I know. Thanks!
Congrats on your anniversary!! I really loved the fabric yo yo post! That look has really been the rage lately! Thanks for a great site!
Photo coasters. I have made so many sets for gifts. people love them!
My favorite was the multi-layer stamping tutorial with the flowers from Kitchen Sink. I had always wanted to see how it looked in "real life". All of your tutorials are great! Congrats on your first year!
Happy Blogoversary to YOU! WoW this is some sweet celebration candy. There are so many fabulous tutorials you have shared and so easy to follow. I would have to say the bead and the canvas tutorials are 2 of my favorites. Thanks for a chance.
Hands down, the mulit-layer flower! Congrats on your anniversary!
Happy blogoversary to you!
All tutorials are great, and the tutorial directions are so clear and complete! They are great tips these we can all use!
My fav was the tutorial "watercolors and stamps".
Thanks!

I loved the crackle painted flowers...too cute!
Heat embossing and twinkling h20's were great. Also didn't know you could use a blender pen with chalks. I keep learning everyday. Thank you

My favorite was the costers...but I've learned a lot and really enjoy all the blog posts---its on my daily "check list!"
I really enjoyed the coloring with pastels tutorial. It has a very soft effect, but a different look than coloring with watercolors. I was inspired to try it myself!
I really like the photo-in-a-jar idea... I would never have thought of it, but it makes SUCH a lovely gift!
This is a hard chose since they are so wonderful and helpful. But I do like the envolpe tutorial is was a great help when I wanted to make my own.
Just found your site today! What a treasure trove of information. Can't wait to go through some of it.
I really like the tutorial on coloring felt accents.
I agree with so many others that the multi-layered flowers was super! Love checking your blog and learning new techniques.
I loved the watercolors tut!!! You gals are always inspiring! So glad you stuck together! :)
I was so happy to see your tutorial on making envelopes. It was just what I needed at the time. thanks & happy anniversary!
The scrapbook pages in a jar is amazing! Thank you so much for the chance to win!
Happy May Day!

Great ideas!
Have a great day

Wow. I have to say this is my first time visiting but just scanning a few of the informative tutorials, I've already learned so much. I love the bangle bracelets and the sculpey clay embellishments. I need to go buy me some now! LOL

I have never understood heat embossing until I watched your tutorial! Thank you for the fun give away too!
I really enjoyed the sharpies and transparencies tutorial! I have sharpies that were just sitting around and now I know how to better utilize them! Thanks so much for sharing with us! This blog provides such inspiration!
My favorite tutorial was Ideas for HS masks. Thanks for all your intersting and inspiring posts.
I love the quick and easy album... I am always looking for ideas for easy gifts for family and friend and this has been a popular idea for me!
They are all great. I liked the Heat Embossing 101.
Adding Glitz to rubons...simple is sometimes the one thing I don't think about and I have used that technique now a few times with great results. Thanks for all the tutorials.
i love love love the repurposing mailing boxes into paper storage! I've been looking and looking for paper storage without spending lots of $$! thanks!
The Halloween cheesecloth ghosts were a big hit here at my house. It would have to be my favorite tutorial.
Heat Embossing helps bring a project to life.
Happy Anniversary! Congrats! I found very useful the Watercolor pencils tutorial. I always color on white paper - I love the look of the pencils on the color paper - esp kraft. I have been trying to break out of my mode! I love the variety of ideas that you provide!!
wow what a great rak!
Mine would have to be the embossing 101 tutorial. I've tried this technique a lot of times but can never get it right. When learned about the extra tools and steps to use (like the right stamp pad and embossing buddy) I knew that the next time I'd try my hand on heat embossing, it would turn out great.
Thanks for all the great info here.
The tutorial with the chalks was my favorite or one of my favorites. I wasn't sure what to do with the chalks I was given and tried the q-tips and made more of a mess than it was worth. The blender pen makes the difference! Now, to try some of the other tutorials and play! What a great give away! Happy Anniversary!

I am new to your site but already book marked a page for future use. I learned alot from the heat embossing 101. I am a beginner looking to venture out. I have always done layouts and am just now getting into cards, stamping and COPICS (which is a whole nother world) Each time I think about venturing out I realize this hobby of mine has so many different aspects.
You have inspired me to just do it. I think I need to put that coupon to good use and get the heat embossing supplies. Thanks!
I love the fabulous altered projects for the holidays! I also like the glimmer mist tutorial. I have always been a bit intimidated by it, but you make it look so easy and cool!
this might seem silly, but my favorite thing has been the recycled mailing box paper holders! it's nice to know there are other "frugal, not cheap" scrappers out there :)
Just found your site today, it seems really neat and I can't wait to go back and see all the neat things that I hear you have. It's Great that you have had a Great Year and Hoping you have many more. Thanks Jayne
my fave was the Heat embossing 101 I have tried embossing a few times before but your tutorial helped to finally master it thanks
Pam
ps Happy Anniversary

My favorites were Create your own Journaling Labels, Color with pastel chalks, and Multi-layered flower.
I just loved the homemade jam recipe! I'm a country girl so this is definitely a gift my family and friends would love to receive!
I am crazy for anything that is Holidays, so of course, the Halloween tricks and treats tutorial is one of my favs!! Keep up the great inspiring work for us who are not!! Thanks for the chance to win more stuff!!
Happy Anniversary!
I found your blog a few months back and have been enjoying reading through everything! Id have to pick Embossing 101 as a fav ( i tried it on my christmas cards last year!) and Making your own envelopes. I often make odd dimensioned cards and making my own envelopes just adds to the charm of handmade cards.
Thanks for all the inspiration! I Look forward to many more posts!
Anything with stamping - I'm a novice!
Happy Blog Oversary!! So many things to pick. I think the best tutorial for me as the embossing.. It looks so cool but I have yet to try.. Thanks for all you do ladies..
I LOVED your easter mantle! I hope that I can remember it for next year-I thought that it was so pretty. It was a fab idea!! Happy anniversary and thanks for the FAB giveaway!!~Romaine
