My sister introduced me to your blog....she is friends with your sister. I love "lurking" and seeing what creations you come up with. I make cards as well only I have yet to attempt the coloring thing as I have no idea where to start. Your cards are beautiful, thanks for sharing.
I just wanted to say. I recently came across your blog and I have just started in the stamping cards area. I love your work and it is truly inspiring.
Joanna
oooh blog candy! How cool! I have really enjoyed reading your blog! Your cards are simply awesome! Looking forward to seeing more!
Hello! My question for you: Is there any craft item that you have bought that was totally NOT worth the money? Thanks!
Cheryl KVD
My question is: "How long have you been stamping?"
Congrats on all those hits! Love your blog...you are on my Google Reader. So, question... "What is your favorite Stamp company?" Follow up question..."What stamp company have you Recently Discovered?"
I truly enjoy seeing your creations -- they are always beautiful, so richly layered and detailed, and have such a soft and soothing quality to them :)
I wonder how you come up with your cards-- do you start with the stamp in mind or papers or color combos? I am a newbie and am sometimes very overwhelmed by all the goodies I've come to accumulate.
My question is, what technique or style have you never tried, but have always meant to?
I really seeing your creations; enjoy checking to see what you create. Did you study art?
thanks-
Sherrie,
You know I love your blog! You are one of the most creative people I know! You are always thinking outside of the box! How do you get your ideas?
Love your blog & I visit whenever my reader lets me know there's an update. Congrats on all your hits!
My question is: What new item is your MUST have??
Congratulations on the hits! You blog is very inspiring. My question: what do you do when you make a
stamping mistake?
Claudia F.
Wow! Congrats on all of the hits! :D
My question is: Do you have a favorite stamp/stamp set?
I have just recently found your blog and enjoy visiting it daily!
So my question would be what is your favorite type of card to create? Do you have favorite colors you use often?
Chris
Hello, just found your blog and will need to check it out but first wanted to get my name in for the awesome blog candy. Thanks for sharing.
Wow - Great blog candy ... AND what's this ... coffee too?! Oh yum, giddy up! If I can find time to do art and drink coffee then I say it's almost heaven on earth (oh yea, like you, I love a latte!!) So for my question: When do you find time to stamp? {I know being a SAHM is hard work. Which leads to another silly question; do you ever get to drink an entire cup of latte while it's still hot!}
Sherrie, I like your blog a Latte LOL! I enjoy the projects you make. My question for you is: Do you ever lose your stamping mojo, if so how do you get it back?
Isn't it the best to stamp with coffee. Mind you, have to be careful not to get the coffee onto your stamping LOL!
I absolutely love your blog. I love your color combinations. How do you choose your colors when beginning a project?
I'm inspired by your work! Congratulations!
What great blog candy! I love your blog. I usually check it several times a day. Just incase I missed something. Keep your beautiful creations coming!
Congratulations on all the hits. This is my first time looking around, but wow! Defnitely on my must visit daily list!
I LOVE your header. Did you update that yourself or did someone make it for you?
YM
Love your creations, my questions is, in your opinion, what tool should no stamper be without? Thanks for the candy.
Linda Webb
Hi Sherrie! Congrats on your hits! My question is when you sit down to make a card, do you start out with a layout in mind, or do you make the pieces, and decide on layout aftwerward?
I love this question and answers. It helps us get to know each other. I always post a non stamp question so here's one for you. What is your all time favorite chick flick? Mine is Cold Mountain, not sure why but it sticks out for me.
I enjoy seeing your creations - you always inspire me!
My question: do you have a "stamp- or craft-room" and how do you store your stamps, scrap and craft-stuff?
I love coffee!!!! My question is what is your favorite stamp company?
Hi Sherrie,
WOW - that is quite the blog candy!! Thanks for being so generous.
I was so glad when my friend Jill told me about your blog a couple months ago and I've been visiting it daily ever since. I love your artistic stamping style. Everything you make is unique and truly beautiful.
Ok, a question... how did you get started in stamping?
Cindy
You have a wonderful blog. What time of day do you do most of your stamping? Thanks for the chance to win some awesome candy.
I just found your blog via a link on the "Stampin' When I Can" blog. :) I have also enjoyed perusing your gallory and your cards are great. Do you, like me, have to *move* your thinking to use different colors and tend to use certain colors mostly? Also, I love coffee too and would like to know your favorite. :)
Can't remember how I found your blog, reference from another one I'm sure. Here's one for you.... how often do you CASE cards?
I just found your blog and now have in on my favorite list!! My question... Do you have a favorite tool that you use all the time?
Hi!
I just found you, also thru Allison.
Congratulations on the success of your blog...
and thanks for the opportunity to win some very neat stuff!
I am a coffee lover...and I love your coffee and cream ribbon!
The cards that you made this morning are great. They're alike, but not alike...very nice.
My question: where do you find your inspiration for creating cards?
Hello...this is awesome candy. My question is, what is your favorite style of card to make?
My question is: I read in your profile that you like to creat with a latte in your hand. So I wanna know how many latte's do you dink a day? I'm an iced coffe fan myself. Thanks for sharing!
Hi SherriE,
I have always enjoyed looking at your cards and miss them. My question would be: Do you do any scrapbook layouts or are you just a card, alterd art maker??
Well...everyone has already covered the questions I wanted to ask! I guess I could ask if you attend many stamp camps or conventions during the year?
Thanks for a chance to win!! Do you own the DreamKutz or Bind-it-All? (for making journals)
Great blog. Just found it via Cindy's... question for you - How many swaps do you join per month, and how do you find time to do everything?
Congratulations Sherrie!
Here's my question:
What non stamping/scrapping websites do you go to for inspiration?
Thanks!
Melissa
Cool blog!
My question is where do you get your inspiration from - the colours, papers, stamps?
Donna
Hi, I just found your blog, and I have seen your work on SCS...love it!!! Awesome blog candy. Since this is my first time here I would like to know how long have you been stamping???
Hi Sherrie!
Missing you on SS, you're such an inspiration! Visit here often to see what you've come up with and am always pleasently surprised! Keep up the great work!
Question: Which of your cards is your most favorite creation?
I love all of your great ideas for mass card making. My question for you is: What is your most tried and trued or favorite technique when you make cards?
Just saw your SCS gallery......BEAUTIFUL! And I LOOOOVE coffee! Thanks for the motivation to be creative!
Jennifer
I don't remember (and I almost never do since I have over 1000 subscriptions in Google Reader...yikes!). I remember it was fairly early on and I was bamboozled by your creations: http://stampinwhenican.blogspot.com/2007/03/found-new-site.html
Anyhoo, I want to know who is your biggest blogging enabler (i.e., who constantly uses materials that force you to go buy paper, stamps, etc.)?
Hi there! I'd sure love to win one of your cards :) I've always been a huge fan of your work. I was actually just thinking of contacting you to ask how you set things up with your floral shop- did you approach them? do they prepurchase? or do you get a % of the profit. How much? etc, etc. I'd love to try venturing out into this realm but it would be nice to get some input. email or pm me if you'd prefer, otherwise I'll look forward to a future post. email is
mnhyrkas at yahoo
I love your blog! Your's is one of the first ones I added to my reader! My question is do you prefer working with acrylic stamps or with wood mounted stamps best?
Just found your blog and it's great - do you use an "inspiration" or "idea" journal - how do you keep up with ideas??
Love your blog - you've been on my google reader for a couple of months now. My question for you is: what's your favorite stamping technique? Mine is distressing because I love that antique look!
I just found your blog today, but it will be added to my feeds and hopefully I'll get email to let me know when your blog changes so I can remember to come back and ogle the goodies! Love your style.
Great blog candy. I am wanting to know where you come up with your ideas?
Did you ever make a card you loved so much you could bear to part with it?
Found your blogg not long ago and like to see your stamped cards. Haven't read the others questions but here is one from me: What is your favorite technique?
I notice that so many stampers are Christians which is great! My Question is "How long have you been a Christian?" I enjoy your blog and I am fairly new to stamping so I like looking for new inspiration. Thanks!
Okay my question to you is, what is your favourite crafting magazine (if you have one)? Cool idea and what lovely candy you are offering thanks for a great chance xx
Oh, yummy candy. Winning that would be just dandy. Let's see....a question for you....
what's your fav color combo to use?
I have just found you via Allison's blog and I like what you do.
I have been stamping for a while amongst other things-and I am always amazed at what people come up with.
Love reading your blog, your candy looks great. One thing I am wondering, how do you decide which kind/type of ribbon to put on your cards? I never know if I should go with grograin, organdy, polka-dotted, gingham, etc. I love how ribbon finishes a card, but never know just which to pick.
Wonderful blog. My question for you is how much time to you spend a day on creating/stamping?
My Question for you: What is it like living in British Columbia? I've heard that it is beautiful. Seems so exotic and far away (I'm in New York state). Nice blog!
How do you get your images to line up so perfectly? Your cards are so cute AND I sell my cards at a little boutique store that doesn't get much traffic, I've been thinking of branching out. Could you tell me what you sell your cards for? Thanks.
Misty
Wow! I can't wait until my 100 turns into a 1000! (nevermind 10,000)!
congrats!
I just found your blog, so i can't make any real suggestions, but I guess I can ask you a question!
Are you a Ted Dekker fan?? (I'm trying to get every book of his read...I think I'm getting close!)
I'm looking forward to checking your blog out. Thanks for the fab giveaway!
I just looked over your blog and its great. I am a lover of cards and haven't tried scrapbooking yet. Thanks for sharing on your blog!
So much fun.. Ok Questions: What are your favorite products? And do you have any favorite techniques?
Love your cards!!! I'm new to your blog as well. What is your fav.color? Thanks for the chance to win your candy!!
Thanks for the chance to win some goodies! My question is: Do you have a favorite creation from all of your stamped art?
Jodie
You blog is on my daily read list, have been out of town for the holiday and no internet access, can you believe that. Oh my, my question is: Do you have a favorite stamping technique?
Love your blog. Your creations are so versatile, my question: Where do you find ideas/inspiration for your cards?
I adore you cute cards! My favorites have been the cupcakes, the fish bowl, and the tire swing. How do you get your ideas? Is it the stamp, paper, etc, or do you just start working and it comes together perfectly?
I just found your blog, and I love it. Your artwork is great and I wonder what is your favorite technique and your favorite color combo, that is one that is tough for me sometimes.
Sherrie, I love reading your blog and seeing all of your beautiful cards! My question is, how did you get into selling your cards? Did you just take them to the flower shop or other places and let them see them? Thanks! ~~Pam
I have been reading your blog since near the begining, and then passed it on to my friend Cindy. From the begining your cards have been inspiring, and a delightful part of my day/week. I even remember reading about a certain favourite perk of laptop computers, which was then deleted. :) It wasn't that bad of an idea.
I was wondering if you have a favourite ink brand? What would you recommend for use with acrylic stamps? Any tips for using staz-on ink and acrylic stamps?
As a fellow TWU alum, I am looking forward to seeing more of your delightful cards in the future.
Cheers. :)
Every day you come up with more wonderful designs, Sherrie! I am SO impressed!! Being a SAHM, when during the day do you create these awesome works of art? Are you thinking about designs all the time?
I love keeping up with your beautiful cards through your blog Sherrie! You are one talented lady! I am hoping to get more into stamping and know I can learn a lot from YOU! Coming over soon for that latte! ;)

I just found your blog. I don't know you too well yet to ask anything too cool. How did you ever figure to make those swirl stamps into waves for that whale? It's GREAT. :)
Wow, what a great blog! I found it when Charmaine tagged you! Thanks for the chance at great blog candy! WOOHOO! :)
Your blog is great! Full of great ideas! My question is: Where is the most unusual place that you've found inspiration for a card or other paper crafting project?
When I checked in today, you had nearly 11,000 peeps!
I have enjoyed getting to know your blog.
Love that card you posted today. The flower is beautiful!
Hi Sherrie!

Love your blog! I was wondering how many kids do you have? Where do you find the time to stamp? I am a SAHM of 2 under 5 so I usually get to stamp at night after the kids are asleep.
Thanks for sharing!
Bobbie

So glad I stumbled on your blog! You've been added to my "keepers" list!
I enjoy stalking your blog and seeing all fun cards you have made. I love your clean style and selection of cute stamps you use. My pet peeve is when people make their cards "too cluttery", what is your pet peeve?
Great candy! Thanks for sharing. Do you have a favorite stamp set?
I have just found out about "blogging" Where have I been? How do you find time to keep up on it? Love your designs. Connie

Love your blog. I see you are from BC...my questions are do you live in the lower mainland (as I do) and where do you get your 'candy'...in other words what craft/scrap stores do you shop at locally and on line?
