Friends + Stamps = Bliss! and BLOG CANDY!

One of our Stampin Sistahs assignments is to use the Stamp Insanity Stamps for an ABC- Anything But a Card.

If you’ve been following me along for a while, you’ll know I love to make the mini pizza boxes from SCS.  I thought this was a perfect project for my ABC, I just had to choose which of the lovely Stamp Insanity Stamps I was going to pick!

I chose a sentiment from the Meet Morgan and Henry set and available exclusively at Stamp Happens.

This is a great set for any stamper to have, there are so many incredibly useful sentiments!

 

So here is my pizza box Pizzabox1

I wanted to use fall colours, but I think it ended up looking a little Christmasy instead…oh well!

 

I used SU Chocolate Chip for the box and American Craft cardstock and DP for the rest.  The sentiment is inked in SU Old Olive.

Here’s a close up…how true!

So, now to the important part…the CANDY!

 

 

 

To celebrate the wonderful friends I have made through stamping, I’m going to offer up some blog candy.  Over the next few weeks, until October 31st, I will be filling this pizza box with some goodies and it will be the Candy prize.

My first addition…well, it doesn’t even fit in the box!

(4) 6X6 We R Memory Keepers “Explore Hubcaps” double sided paper.DSC09828-1 On the back is a great circle pattern in coordinating colours:

RULES:

  • Leave a comment, with the number of your entry, on this original post to be included in the draw
  • Add a link to my blog candy on your blog and get a second entry

That’s it! you can add a little story about a stamping friend, I always love to hear stories…have you ever met a stamping bloggy friend in person?

I will ship worldwide! Some of my stamping friends live across the pond or down under :) 

I will be adding to the Pizza box until October 31st, and post when something is added.  I will also include a link on my sidebar so you can be kept up to date.  I will use a Random number generator to pick the winner on November 1st.

Happy Wednesday!

Ciao for now,

What a cool creation you have! I love that! And such fun blog candy!
To answer you r question, I know 2 "blog" friends. Margie and Sarabeth. They both shopped at my store. If it wasn't for Margie, I may not even have a blog!

This is such a good idea and your box turned out FANTASTIC!!! I haven't met any scrappy friends in person but I just discovered that Ben's babysitter is a scrapper... so I know her and Erica and I are trying to get a meet up worked out since we are only about an hour from each other. Such fun blog candy!!!

Steph...Your box is just amazing!!! You always come up with the best ideas, I LOVE It!!!

I started scrappin' before I started blogging...So I have lots of crafty friends..Happens when you own your own shop...LOL!! But when I moved away I left most of them behind... I missed all the friendships and laughter and the togetherness that cardmaking/scrapbooking brings.... But then I found TT...And through TT I have meet the most amazing bunch of woman.... That have not only inspired me, but have become some of my closest friends....

I have never made the pizza box from SCS but keep saying I'm going to do it. What a neat idea for blog candy. I love your pizza box and the sentiment is so true!

A fantastic creation and a very clever idea. TFS

I haven't made a pizza box yet - and your colors turned out great! I think it does look like fall.

I've been lucky! I'm met a ton of my blog and stamping friends in real life - mostly thanks to SCS :-) and so many stamp events held here in Florida.

Thanks for offering this sweet blog candy!

I don't have any friends that share my interest in scrapping and stamping, so I spend lots of time on the computer checking out other's blogs. Love your creativity! Lana

What a sweet box! I've never tried to create one either, but I did just print out a tutorial on it a few days ago! I love the ribbon and colors you chose! It works so well together! I always have such a hard time matching ribbon...
Well, my sis and I know each other ;) and we met Alison! We have also met one other bloggy friend who gave us a SU workshop... but that's just about it! I always thought that living were we do that I would have met more blogging scrappers, but not any live nearby... I need a roadtrip soon! ;) or maybe a plane ticket someday!!!

TFS :*)

I love the box you created and the candy you're offering! I also met some fantastic friends through stamping. One of these stamping friends organised a stamping weekend, so I got the chance to meet some great people that stamp for many years. I learned a lot from them and I'm looking forward to the next edition! Thanks for a chance to win! Greetings from Belgium, Annelies
