Heidi -- having taken many classes from you over the years, you are an awesome teacher. This would be a fabulous parting gift...you are not only such an amazing person, your personality carries over into your projects. Thaks for the chance to win!

Yum...my favorite time of the year. I do spider suckers and chocolate dipped oreos for my family and whatever chocolate bag mix is on sale at the store for the others...(and like most of us my favs somehow do not make it in...eg. dark chocolate anything!)

What a unique pendant to showcase your family! Love it!

Heidi....how about a Sonic drink...I know how much you miss your Sonic drinks....and you can bling it up like you did with the ladies in Houston :-) Though I think the interpretation of the House of 3 girl idea rocks.... Kathi

First scrapbooking has brought me more friends in more places than I could ever have dreamed and imagined of. And second, scrapbooking has allowed me to give the gifts of memories and heritage to my family - it's that priceless gift that money cannot buy! Thanks for the chance to win this prize!

ooooh...pick me pick me.....yum!!! (and that model is always adorable....) Kathi

By Far the ribbon...always love the little krafties but that ribbon..

Ah Heidi....your photos made me think I was in Italy....your book makes me want to go. Thanks for always sharing your life and your creativity with us! Kathi

Hey Heidi....I am an east coaster during the week too....i can't do it much later :-( I have fun though

Your inspiration is always worth waiting for, Tim. Thanks for sharing and have a safe trip!

OMG....Sadie's faces are probably worth more than anything...she is hilarious!!! Thanks for sharing! Happy Friday!

Just one?!??! It would have to be the Distress Inks...especially those new ones I am dying to get my hands on......gorgeous!

How do you always know just what we need....LOVE IT!!

I love the whole idea of using the transparency frames as a whole page...in addition to using them as cut outs on pages and cards....thanks for continuing to inspire us!

Very cool to add the grunge element to embossing...really in love with the tree bark and the bingo card notepaper combo...so awsome!

each one was more beautiful and unique. Love the butterflies but really love that first card. Thanks for sharing!

Love the way you showed us how we can take one design and make it useful in four different and distinct ways. Thanks, as always!

Wow...the enabler in you is annoying me but that fluff stuff does look cool....and the tree on the car is totally over the river and through the woods thing...gotta do it! thanks for your awesomeness... Kathi

You know, Tim -- it's impossible to not love your creativity....but I think I enjoy reading everyone's commens just as much! Happy Happy!

Okay I must admit my heart sank to my feet when I saw the two tags because I have only been reading and soaking in the creative goodness (and cleaning my craft room from the last project extravaganza.) But then I read through them and saw how cool they were and I say..what the heck. Let the creativity begin! Thanks Tim and Mario both for your generosity of heart and creativity!

Stephanie - I am packing too, to put my stuff in storage except the carefully edited pile of scrapping things i cannot live without. I hope to settle within six months but we will see. In the meantime I lOVED Georgia and I am sure you will too. Lots of craftiness there...though my heart is still in TX :-)

My favorite design trick, like many of the others here, is to repeat a basic design (one for each facing page) throughout a book, with changes in embellishments or turning it sideways, etc. and using colors and patterns in the magic numbers of 3 or 5. My favorite "vintage" finds are reproductions often found at the dollar stores or in dollar bins. I found some awesome state map cards, flashcards, back to school covers and report cards all in dollar bins. Plus I scored some really cool leaf doilies. Love em! They would all look awesome with this kit!

No idea why, but I am crazy about the leaves. I always collect "just a few" everytime I walk the dog.
