Appreciation
I sincerely appreciate each of you who stop by, browse and visit the blog! I try to make it a welcome spot that shares fun projects that I have worked on. Recently, I've liked sharing tips and techniques that I've discovered along the way to make crafting fun and easy for you. I plan to continue that element of the blog and will expand it a bit more once the new website is finalized. Speaking of the new site, it will probably be completed by the end of summer or so.
In case you don't know, I read each comment left on my blog. I may not have the time or opportunity to reply back, but please know that I read them. On the future site, I hope to have a bit more interaction with my readers to communicate with ease about paper crafting stuff!
So, thanks to you all, I'm offering my personal Papertrey Ink Limited Edition 3rd Anniversary stamp sets just for you!
Wow, Ashley!! What a fabulous giveaway.

Smita
PS: Congrats to whoever wins, in advance [I know I never win LOL]

ReplyDeleteSummer plans include to ride the Harley with my husband and take in as much history here on the East coast as we can before we get transferred away from the area.
This is so great. I only discovered PTI late last year, so I didn't get a chance to earn this set, but it looks fabulous. My summer plans include making homemade ice cream, shopping at the farmer's market, hanging out at the pool, writing, and of course, making cards! Thanks again for the chance at this giveaway.
ReplyDeleteOur plans for the summer include selling a house and moving (fun, fun), and using our new (to us) camper and truck to explore the great outdoors. We have a special camping trip planned with friends in July to go clamming and crabbing. Also, lots of potlucks with our church family - yum!
ReplyDeleteWow... a really generous and great giveaway!! Thank you for the chance to win!
ReplyDeleteThis summer we are staying home. can you believe that??? But we would rather save our pennies and do a few stay-cations then travel anywhere. Our plans include a visit from my parents, lots of bbqs, a road trip to niagra falls and assembling a chicken coop! Should be lots of fun! Hope you have a great time too!
thanks again

ReplyDeleteThanks for always have something amazing to look at and this awesome blog candy!
My summer plans? Three weeks today, my boyfriend and I will be leaving Manchester Airport, in grey old England, and jetting over to your side of the Atlantic for 10 nights in New York. It'll be the third we've been, and we both love it! It's so different from where we live, and such a fast, vibrant city. We've done the big touristy stuff over the last few years, and are looking forward to seeing some places off the beaten track this time. And the baseball! We're off to see the Cyclones at Coney Island. Twice!
ReplyDeleteOn a craft-related note, I've discovered there's a branch of Michaels a few blocks away from the hotel - I swear it wasn't planned - and I'm looking forward to exploring InkPad NYC in Greenwich Village! I'm also hoping to get my hands on some Papertrey stuff while I'm over - the projects always look fab with their stuff!
Love the blog, and thanks for the generous giveaway! Mo x
Gosh ! How generous - thank you !
ReplyDeleteI will be spending a chunk of my summer making cards as I need LOTS ! In August, I plan to start selling them at work to raise funds for the Tearfund project MAKE LIFE FLOW (you can go watch a video about their work here - http://www.tearfund.org/Make+Life+Flow/ - you will be moved)
I also plan to spend time with my nearly-4 and her daddy, just livin'. Can't wait!
Thanks again - I love your work. you are on my daily inspiration list !
How generous of you! Our summer plans started the first weekend of June; we celebrated 2 milestones in our family: my Dad's 90th birthday, and my parents' 65th wedding anniversary! We actually got our whole family together (which happens so rarely) and it was a wonderful reunion and time. AND our first grandson, 13 months old, took his first unaided steps at the party! How's that for the topper on the cake??? Evidently he was waiting for an audience :)
ReplyDeleteI have just discovered PTI stamps and would love to win these.
What a great set of stamps! Our summer plans are enjoying the beach in FL this week with my in-laws and some time with other family in KY before heading "home". Hope that you have a wonderful summer too. It goes by way too fast!
ReplyDeleteFirst, I have to say I look forward to receiving your blog post email daily. Your cards are such an artful inspiration to me..Thanks for sharing your talent. My..well our summer plans are to spend as much time together as a family exploring/adventuring our state parks/beaches/etc. During the course of the school year it's hard to just spend quite quality time together.
ReplyDeleteI'm a relative newbie to PTI stamps and your blog, but I have loved all the inspiration found here!

ReplyDeleteOh wow--Ashley:) THANKS for the chance to win! This would be my first PTI stash--I have been drooling over PTI items...but I just haven't had enough saved up yet!
ReplyDeleteFor summer....I plan on just crafting and getting some scrapbook pages done. I just started scrapbooking (in March), and I'm hooked:) Just like making cards;)

ReplyDeleteMy summer... they're all up in the air but it's ranging from local sights to driving hubby to some training academy in Germany in August. We'll see how comfortable I feel about going from right to left driving and back to right and if the dogs can get their passports by then. I know, exotic, huh :P
My summer plans are always the same - don't you love family traditions? We all gather together from everywhere on Captiva Island, Florida. Sunsets over the ocean, drinks on the beach, morning swims in the pool, nights talking on the screened porch. LOVE IT!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great prize! Thank you!
ReplyDeleteMy summer plans are pretty mellow. My husband is usually in Iraq, and this is the first summer he's been home in ages so we're just taking it easy. The summer will be filled with family gatherings, horseback riding lessons, the beach (or as close as Nashville has to a beach the lake..lol) and that's it. Good times, though!
Wonderful giveaway and thank you for your amazing blog. The amount of work you put into it and you love of paper crafting is evident here.

We live away from family, so our summer plans involve having an annual "sister week" together (my 3 sisters and I) spent in Williamsburg, Va. , I'll be traveling for work to Portland Oregon for a AFIS fingerprint conference, and looking forward to the Valley Forge Creating Keepsakes Convention in July! Probably some other trips, too. Love summer!
ReplyDeleteAwfully generous of you....those are awesome!!!
ReplyDeleteI LOVE SUMMER!!!! I plan to spend time with family and friends to enjoy the most important thing......THEM! Hopefully, I can get a couple more getaways in before summer ends as well. Also, to start next month on Christmas crafts.....yes, Christmas. I always wait to the last minute and get overwhelmed during the season.
Thanks.
I so enjoy visiting your blog daily --your creations always give me such inspiration. We're not planning any big trips this summer, but it will be a fun one filled with card making, scrap booking, crafting with my family and neighbors, and of course, barbecues! Hope you have a delightful summer!
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful giveaway. I love PTI stamps... This summer we are going to spend some time in Massachusetts. I'm hoping it will be a lot cooler then here in North Carolina. Then in August all my children and grandchildren will come to visit. It will be wonderful to have them all together again.
ReplyDeleteWhat an awesome giveaway!
ReplyDeleteOur summer plans are to survive potty training my son - ack! No really, we have a trip to MI to hang out at the lake house with family, newphews coming to stay with us for a week and lots of pool time. I love summer!
Awesome giveaway! Our Summer will be very laid back. We will mostly go to the pool and the boys will take golf lessons.
ReplyDeleteHope yours is super!
are summer will be pretty busy as our 3 yr old will keep us hopping w/ pool visits, play dates, etc. We are heading to Hawaii in a couple of weeks-- I cannot wait for all of the breathtaking photo opps!
ReplyDeleteThanks for this Ashley-- I'm loving your blog right now especially with the food additions!
Oh my goodness, what a generous give-a-way! My summer plans are a stay-cation next week. My husband and I usually go away each year when our son goes to camp, but this year we decided to stay home and enjoy the house all to ourselves. We plan on visiting the newly renovated art museum, dining out, hiking, and watching a couple romantic movies. Then later this summer we plan on spending a week in Lake Tahoe California. And at the end of the summer we will spend a few days at Carolina Beach. Ah...looking forward to all the relaxing! :)
ReplyDeleteHi Ashley. This is a wonderful give away and thank you for blogging. I really appreciate your work. You are very talented.
ReplyDeleteAs for our summer plans, they consist of a lot of camps and classes and birthday parties. This week alone we have: basketball camp, golf league and lessons, 3 baseball games and VBS. Sad to say this is all for one child.
Thanks again for sharing your work with us.

Ashley, What a nice way to show appreciation, I'd love to win these stamps.
ReplyDeleteMy summer is going to be spent going boating and having fun with family and friend. Shari
Unfortunately my summer will be spent with doctors, probably some hospital visits and lots of medications. It won't be the fun summer I was looking forward to as I was just diagnosed with Lupus. On the plus side I'll be home a lot with plenty of time to stamp and read all my favorite blogs. LOL There was a big neighborhood reunion planned in August with all my childhood friends, I'm just praying I'm well enough to attend that! Thanks for the chance to win... they would sure come in handy!
ReplyDeleteWow..thanks for the great giveaway.
ReplyDeleteSummer plans...hang out at home by the pool!
Charmaine
We just moved, so our summer funds have gone to a new washer, lawn mower, and all the other joys of moving - and it was only across town! But, now I have a back yard that the kids can play in, so hopefully I'll be getting some card making and sewing done. Well, at least that's what I want to do. We'll see.
ReplyDeleteSweet giveaway!
ReplyDeleteWe plan on going camping as much as possible, swimming, dirtbiking, boating. My garden is in full swing, so you'll probably find me there!
Love your stuff, Ashley!
Wow! What a great chance! Well, I need a couple of weeks to re-organize and paint my scrapbooking room. Then, we have plans and hopes to visit Machu Picchu...crossing fingers! Enjoy your summer!
ReplyDeleteMy summer plan is to have a romantic night away from home for me and my hubby. We will be celebrating our 10th year anniversary. Also I want to go to the beach more than last year. We only went once and I'm going to try for three times this year.
ReplyDeleteAwesome giveaway Ashley...thanks for the chance to get some PTI inky. My summer plans are to watch my redheaded 4yo DGD for 2 weeks. DH and I are soooo longing to hearing those sweet little giggles and the sounds of 'papa, bama' as she stays with us.
ReplyDeleteKellyRae
Thanks for the chance at this giveaway. I love visiting your blog, just great inspiration.
ReplyDeleteMy summer will be spent with DH in school to graduate in August 2010 then hopefully getting a job after being unemployed for 3 yrs. New career at 50 yrs old.
We also will celebrate in August our 25th wedding anniversary with a delayed celebration after employment.
Thanks for the chance to win some PTI...its winter here in Western Australia but its always "sunny" in our home :0)
ReplyDeleteWinter for us means hubby works less so we get to spend some quality time together with our 10yo daughter and 3yo son!
Hoping to go down to Busselton and Margaret River for some weekends with the kids...so much to do down there, tourist caves, canal rocks, beautiful coastal and inland drives...hmm might have to sneak a few stops in at the chocolate factory and some cheese makers oooh and of course a couple of wineries and Breweries for Mum and Dad ;0)
Our summer will consist of the reading program at the library, swimming, and our annual 4th of July party! Anything else will just be spur of the moment. I love PTI and would love this! Thanks, and I hope you have a fabulous summer!
ReplyDeleteAshley, I absolutely LOVE your blog! You totally inspired me every time you post!!! My summer plans are to finish writing my first novel and get it on contract with a publisher! Very exciting season... OF course, I would love to have this stamp set to use for some nice breaks from writing and fun time in the craft room!
ReplyDeleteI just retired after thirty-two years of teaching and I plan to wait until fall for vacation. I want to catch up on crafts this summer.
ReplyDeleteGreat give-away! I always love seeing your creations in my in-box!
ReplyDeleteMy summer plans include cleaning out the basement and having a garage sale and then a trip Up North (as we Michigander say) to my friend's cabin with my fam! I also plan to relax!
We appreciate you too. Having a blog is a lot of work. I know I would stop by even without a giveaway. Keep up the terrific work! Thank you. My summer is all about getting my son to college. We fly out with him, and will help him move into the dorm. We just need to remember everything!
ReplyDeleteThanks for all the inspiration and a chance to win this fab prize!!
ReplyDeleteMy plans this summer involve my kids. Getting to know my daughter (7 weeks) better and taking my son all over town for summer school and swmminglessons. We will also spend some time at the pool and some museums. My husband is in a pipe and drum band andwe have los of parades to attend. It will be fast and busy! Hope you enjoy your summer!

right now, the plan is to keep cool! but, off and on, we will probably be taking little day trips to communities near us - greenville, nc. so, we can go to the ocean or toward the piedmont. who knows?
ReplyDeleteOh, how sweet of you to do this! Summer plans? Sometimes the best summers are those that have no plans, but one thing I at least hope to do is spend as much time as I can with my newly graduated from high school daughter. She's growing up faster by the minute and any and all time with her is precious.
ReplyDeleteWhat a FAB giveaway! My summer plans are to enjoy time with my 10 year old, she's just started to get into card-making so I can combine two of my favourite hobbies together, one spending time with her, the other creating!
ReplyDeleteThank you for the wonderful tutorial in Embellish Mag for crinkly ribbon! We're having so much fun with it! I am really enjoying your tips and techniques too!
Awesome giveaway! I'd love to win and then try to case your elegant style!
ReplyDeleteI just gave birth to our new little girl, Ellarie. I can't wait to spend this summer hugging and kissing this new little person and getting to know her. I have the summer off work on maternity leave, and I'm so grateful to have this special time with her. It'll go by so quickly.
OMG!!!!!!!! I have been wanting this set SOOOOOOO BAD!!!!!!!! Thanks for the chance to win!!!!
ReplyDeleteMy plans for the summer are to get more organized and more fit. Since my daughter is out of school it allows more time for all this and she can help me out too. Plus we got a new puppy in February so we don't really want to leave him to take a vacation. He's about 70 lbs. now and loads of fun.
Thanks again for the chance...I'm keeping my fingers crossed because I would SOOOOO LOVE to get this.
We will be heading out to Colorado for a summer vacation with 3 other families (friends from college) - it's always a ton of fun.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the opportunity to win such a lovely set - your blog is such an inspiration to me.

Ashley: Thanks for the give-away opportunity. Our addiction can be expensive :) This year, I'm taking 11 year old son/business manager to the Jazz Festival in Montreal. We have plans to stop by one of Montreal's biggest stamping stores, so I can pickup some Bella Stamps and whatever nice goodies I can find to bring back to Baltimore.

ReplyDeleteWe are going to our family cottage. I can't wait! My kids love it as much as I do. The rest of the vacation will be me trying to keep my kids busy, so this stamp set would totally help.
ReplyDeleteI love your blog and that you include recipes. It's always fun to see what other people are making for dinner. Thanks!
Times are hard in our neck of the woods, so there are no vacation plans here. I am a stay at home mom of a son who has autism. We will spend our days on break doing what he loves best...Walking. We will hit all the trails and paths in our area.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the opportunity to win!
Great giveaway. My summer plans involve going to my in-laws cottage and just relaxing by the lake and reading. Maybe a campfire or two with some roasted marshmallows!

ReplyDeleteMy summer plans will be kicked off a little late upon the return of my husband from his deployment from Iraq. We plan on just relaxing having family time with our son, going to the beach, possibly before a move to the Mainland. We are hoping to maybe squeeze in some Island hoping, but just relaxing is the best plan for us!
Thank you for your constant inspiration. The blogging everyday is a lot of work and I know I appreciate you sharing your talent and time.
Warm Aloha!

Ashley! Your blog is so beautiful!

G'day! My summer plan will be I'm gonna leave Australia for good and move to my home country, Malaysia for a short time of period. And then, move to Dubai again for work. Gezz.. so basically, summer will be a busy moving's month for me. But I believe God will provide the best for me and the family.
