............because I'm feeling generous, and I have news that I'm dying to tell you, but I can't yet.........remember that sale on full sheets of rubber stamps over at Biblical Impressions? Head over to their site:
Biblical Impressions
then come back and tell me which full sheet is your favorite favorite, by leaving a comment on this post. I'll pick a random winner on Tuesday at noon here, which would be midnight Monday Sept. 15th EST. The winner will receive their favorite sheet for free!! Hey, make it two winners!!
Here's one card to share...would you think I was crazy if I told you I saw this scene in a dream, and in my dream took a picture of it so I could remember it for a card when I woke up? :) LOL I masked the sun with a circle-punched post-it note, then lightly sponged my yellow cardstock using Popsicle Orange ink. The tree is stamped in Versafine Onyx Black ink, and the ground was made using a torn paper mask and the same black ink. The tree set is one of my favorites from Biblical Impressions' "Straight Forward Stamps" line. The tree comes in 3 different sizes, with a cluster of leaves for each size. There's all kinds of other great stamps crammed on that sheet too - seriously, a really great value.
Thanks for checking in!!
I like too many of these sheets, but if I had to choose, I would chose bookmark 3, door, and mailboxes. That is 3 that I had to tell you about but I could keep adding to the list. Thanks for your generosity.

Hi Dina, It's nice to have you blogging more. Hope you are settling back in. I really like the Toads set (STV13) as I have nothing like that. I also like your werdz sets. thanks for the chance to win.
ReplyDeleteI have no idea how you got off my feed list, but you did and I am here to say your card is wonderful!. I love what you did with your sponging and sun, tree, etc. TFS
ReplyDeleteDina - love this card!! I've dreamt of cards too...so no, I don't think it's strange at all!
ReplyDeleteThere are so many of the sets that I adore, but I'd have to say my favorite is the Patriotic (STV25). The images on this are like no other patriotic stamps I've seen. I love the little girl holding the flag!!
Thanks and big hugs
Jami
I agree that there are so many of the sets that are great but I am going to say that the Landscapes sheet is great! I am loving the scored edges that you are using - really finishes off the main panel!! This card is gorgeous!!!
ReplyDeleteI found it ironic that after perusing all the simply gorgeous sets, that I'd pick "Toads"... Those little guys make me happy every time I see them & I can think of so many sentiments to go with them! Thanks for a chance to win, Dina! Hope you're having a totally blessed day!!!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the contest, Dina!
ReplyDeleteI love so many of the stamps, I can hardly choose which one I like best. But I will say "Baby Blocks." The Sheperds one is very nice as well, and so are the snowmen.
wow, hard to chose ONE sheet. but love all of Wendy Fransisco's work.. especially the TOADS sheet and Cat sheet!!! tpatti@alltel.net
ReplyDeleteMy favoritest thing about Biblical Impressions is how many Bible verses they carry. For a full sheet, I would have to choose STV84 as my favoritest favoritest - because it has my favorite verse on it - John 16:33. Thanks so much for the chance, Dina!!!
ReplyDeleteWell my favorite is one I have had for years! STV395 Sea Live. Every one of the individual stamps has been used several times as I live on an island and like to create sea and beach scenes.
ReplyDeleteThen next on my list to buy is STV76 Bookmark 3. Bookmarks make nice little "extras". Biblical Impressions make good stamps.
Thanks for the opportunity to maybe win another sheet!
GORGEOUS card! What a generous give-away! I would chose STV458 Cast All Your Care. I'm always needing verses. Thanks for the chance to win this sheet!
ReplyDeleteThanks for your generosity! Hope you are settling back into life after furlough. It is a tough thing to have to choose between so any cute stamp sheets, however, I just love, love the snowmen (STV5)!! They are so cute.
ReplyDeleteWhat a mean thing to do to us -- go to their site and pick ONE as your favorite --- could I pick 2 dozen...sigh... if I have to pick just one, I'd pick STV43 DESIGNS BY WENDY FRANCISE. The doves are fantastic.
ReplyDeleteThe cool fall air has me thinking FALL!!
ReplyDeleteSo I am thinking: STV41 Fall Full Sheet.
I also love Wendy's Frogs!
WOW! Your card is FABULOUS, girl!!
ReplyDeleteAnd btw, I LOVE my new watermarks! I have used them all and they look great!
My fav sheet is one that surprised me! I looked at ALL of them back and forth for a long time, but like the Toads!!
hey it is incredibly hard to choose a favorite, but I think mine would be for function and I hate to be repetitious at Christmas by saying "Merry Christmas" all the time. I choose the Cmas verses, STV65 for it's versatility (pun, get it?) Linda Crowder
ReplyDeleteHard to choose a favorite but I think I will go with "And His Name" (STV 459)--can't go wrong with scripture and I don't think I have these verses.
ReplyDeleteSuch a difficult choice, but I narrowed it down to STV392 Get well Sheet. Thanks for the chance to win.
ReplyDeletewebe34him@bellsouth.net
Hands down it is the "Cast Your Cares" sheet as those scriptures mean so much, especially now. And can I ask you to please pray for my mother in law as she was just diagnosed with terminal liver cancer. Her name is Pat. I am praying for complete healing!
ReplyDeleteThanks so much Dina!
I love Biblical Expressions and have many of their sheets. But one I saw just now that I don't have yet is the July set with patriotic images. I would love this for my cards for the troops!
ReplyDeleteBuck or Horses are just beautiful and would be my fave(s)....I hope it's ok to play if I am going out of town - I won't be back online for a while (a week)
ReplyDeleteHow the heck did I miss your announcement of FREE stamps? I {{{heart}}} Biblical Impression Stamps, but just haven't been able to afford them this year. But I love seeing all the fabulous cards the team makes with them!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the opportunity!
Hugs,
Amy
Hi Dina,
ReplyDeleteI'm new to your blog and I'm so glad I've found it. You are so talented and I've really enjoyed what I found. Thank you also for the very generous blog candy. I really love the tree that you have used in your card from 'slice of cake' and I don't have any tree stamps so I think that is my favorite one.

Gorgeous card...I need to get brave and give my brayer a go. Always looking for good scripture quotes, so I could pick several. I think if I had to choose one, it would be stv 459 -And His Name.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the chance at winning!
Dina, your card is great! I was just reading your post about your youngest son mixing up your embossing powders. I'm sorry that happened! Thanks for the reminder about the Biblical Impressions stamps. They have so many good ones. My favorite is Bookmarks 1 (STV51). It could be used to make so many bookmarks to give away as small gifts. Thank you for your generosity.... Pat
ReplyDeleteWow there are so many wonderful stamps. One of the was that really stood out for me was Sheet 831 from DelRose Stamping Co. OK another one was the cute mailboxes also. Thanks for a chance at this sweet candy.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the reminder LOL ...but only one to pick? There are so many beautiful stamps that it was hard to narrow it down to 1... so I picked 2..from all and snowman. If I win I will have to put in a hat and pick:) Thanks for the chance and have a terrific day
ReplyDeleteI have to admit that I hadn't taken the time to browse that site before. If I had to choose one full sheet as my favorite, I'd have to go with the Sunflowers sheet.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the chance to win!
Congrats on the IO spot. That is always neat to be chosen for an honor like that. Love your card and would love a chance to win some stamps. Pat ( Julie's Mom )
ReplyDeleteI have to start by saying I love your blog. As for the stamp sheets, what a decision! But if I have to pick one, I would go with BIRDHOUSE. So many possibilities! Thank you for sharing your beautiful work. God bless- blessedbygrace
ReplyDeleteanotherCSSC
Gosh it was hard to pick but I would pick the Wishing you from the Christmas collection although they are all beautiful. Thanks for the opportunity to win some lovely stamps.
ReplyDeleteLots of pretty stamps ... I love that sunflower backgrounder, so the sunflower sheet would probably be my favorite. Thanks for the chance to win.
ReplyDeleteThey have some wonderful stamps there. My favorite is STV 26 Snowmen. I have a weakness for them.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the chance to win.
Swedie
I'm so excited to have found your blog and in time for candy to boot!! It's hard to pick a fav, but I love the werdz and the snowmen. Thanks for the chance!
ReplyDeleteOooh, I am so excited to see your work! Too many blogs to visit and not enough time, lol! I will bookmark yours. How fun! I would love some inspirational rubber! Thank you so much for your generosity and sharing the inspiration!!
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful scene!! I love the way it looks like a photo mounted on the front of a card.
ReplyDeleteI have to say my favorite is the fruit sheet. They're so realistic and versatile!
Awesome stamps I must say! Never heard of this company but have bookmarked it now. Thanks for the candy offer and continued success.

Hello Dina, what a great giveaway! Thanks for your generousity! My favorite sheet is STV 58 Sunflowers. They are so multifunctional. I'm sure I could use them on cards, ATC's and in my scrapbooks. Greetings from Belgium, Annelies
ReplyDeleteWOW!!! A great givaway indeed. I must say I like so very many of their sheets; I cannot just choose one favorite. I would probably get most excited about the verse sheets. (and perhaps the be still one). Oh now I've not ever met a bible verse I didn't like. *lol* Thanks for the chance to win. And your tree is gorgeous with that perfect autumn background. Stunning!
ReplyDeletePicket Fence is my favorite sheet at this time. Thanks for the opportunity to win. I love your card with the tree.
ReplyDeleteI always love getting your newsletters. All the sheets are really nice. I think I like the toads set and the Gone Fishing set. My husband loves to fish. Keep up the good work.
ReplyDeleteThey're all lovely but I think the Fall sheet is my favourite!
ReplyDeleteHello Dina, your card is beautiful. I realy like the Picket Fence set. I began thinking about what scenes could be created with this set. Well we shall see.
ReplyDeleteThank you for a chance to win this set.
Blessings...
There were a lot of cute stamps, but my favorite favorite is the angels.
ReplyDeleteI just love all the florals.

Hey, there's a card I made on that site! On the page that lists all the full sheets, the bottom card is mine! Cool. At any rate, I vote for the fruit full sheet.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the chance to play!

I do postcards weekly to use at church and I think STV 64 Blessings is one that I could really use! Thanks for the contest!
ReplyDeleteOkay, Dina, you should never have asked about favorite sheet. Let me count:
ReplyDeleteSTV 395 - Sea Life
STV 416 - Angels
STV 58 - Sunflowers
Sorry, Dina, I never met a stamp I didn't like. Ha! I had to quit so I could check out some more blogs. LOL
TFS

I wanna win! Sorry I'm late to post. We got power back today from Hurricane Ike in Houston at my house and I'm checking my blogs! I'd love to win stamps!
ReplyDeleteI like toads, snowmen & mailboxes... so many great sheets! love biblical impressions stamps!
ReplyDeleteYour card is gorgeous, what a beautiful job. If I had to pick a favorite it would be STV416 Angels. I would use it for making cards for our card ministry at church. Creating the cards for our shut-ins gives me such joy.
ReplyDeleteYikes! Sorry to hear about your embossing upset! Sounds like you made lemonade!!
ReplyDeleteProverbs 3:5-6 is my life's verse so I would choose the set STV 39 "FOR I KNOW" as one of my favorites!
Best wishes!!
I like the Werdz sets that you designed, but it would be hard to pick one favorite, each has some really good words that you can't find anywhere else. Probably Best Wishes or Sweet Dreams.
ReplyDeleteI also like Wendy Fransisco's cats sheet... but I love everything cat-related... especially my two kitties!!

ReplyDeleteThanks, Dina, for the lead to a new stamping company for me! I'm going to enjoy browsing and buying there! After a quick look, two favorites jumped out at me!! lol
ReplyDeleteSTV57 which was the solid flowers sheet--ideas just popping into my head!--and STV65 the Christmas verses. I never have too many Christmas verses for my cards. Thanks for the opportunity to win!
Gail S.
I like a lot of them , but if I had to choose it would be Baby blocks, cmas verses, and set the light bookmarks .
ReplyDeleteI like your blog and it inspires me to do a lot of things so thank you for that Dina.
Thank you for the chance to win some great stamps.
OH yeah but the best of all I love your frog set , my friend would absolutley go gaga for your frogs as would I
ReplyDeleteThank you again :)
My ultimate favorite would have to be the cats. I just love the cat looking over the fence as if it is waiting to get into some kind of mischielf,. LOL!!!
ReplyDeleteThere are too many to choose from...but I also chose the Toads (STV13) - frogs are so-o-o wonderful! (My other 2 fav's were: STV82 Dragonflies and STV54 Banners).
ReplyDeleteThanks for this chance to win!! :)
I like the "Grizzly" animal sheet. It's so hard to make man cards and these animals would make great cards.
ReplyDeleteKate
HI Dina!!
ReplyDeleteI just checked Biblical Impressions and I love them all, LOL, I really like STV2 Baby Blocks.
Thanks for the chance to win and your generosity.
God bless
Giovana
Wow! Thank you so much for introducing me to Biblical Impressions. I had never seen them before I read your post. What rock have I been under?!! So many great sets to choose from...I think my favorite would be bookmarks1. This looks to be very versatile for cards, bookmarks, etc. Of course I also loved the Toads, Sunflowers and Mailboxes!
ReplyDeleteThank you for the chance to win some awesome stamps!
Blessings,
