Heart Candy is Back!

Heart Candy is back. This week's heart candy is a CTMH acrylix stamp set called Simple Stitches.


To win is simple. What's your New Year's Resolution? It doesn't have to be anything serious, it could be a crafting resolution. Mine is to finish my baby's one year album once and for all and to use up the paper I have (or at least some of it!) before buying more! Just leave your comment here by midnight Tuesday and I will use random.org to pick a winner on Wednesday, January 9.

    Cindy, my resolution is to finish up the unfinished projects from last year - the scarves half knit, the scrapbooks for the grandkids, etc. I also want to try new things - push that creative envelope! Thanks, Chris

    Happy New Year! One of my resolutions is to spend more time with friends. It's too easy to get wrapped up in work and stuff and miss them! Great blog candy, btw.

    One of my crafty goals for 2008 is to use up all of my fabric before I buy more.

    I have a list of projects to complete fully this year. Some are partially finished like cross-stitch projects and quilts. But I have SO much and need to use it instead of buying new stuff!!

    Goals (not resolutions):

    1.) blog at least weekly on my own new blog

    2.) more scrapbooking/cardmaking -- at least 2 to 3 times per week

    3.) walk at least 25 miles every 2 weeks

    We'll see how far I get!! :)

    My New Years resolution is to set aside at least 1 or 2 days a week to do some scrapbook pages, I've been lacking in that department since I started stamping 7 months ago. I need to work on my daughter's engagement book, which will be everyting leading up to the wedding. I want to give this book to her the morning of her wedding in July. So I need to get my butt in gear!

    I want to get more scrapping done. I used to be alot more productive in that area until I discovered the wonderful art of stamping. I still scrap, it's my first love, but cardmaking (stamping) is closer to instant gratification... LOL....
    Anyway I admire your resolution to use your existing paper before purchasing more...you must be very determined and have a wonderfully STRONG will, I know I would fail miserably at that one!!! LOL

    Happy New Year to you and your family!

    I don't generally like making a resolution because I have never been serious about them and forget about them soon after. But I do like your idea to use up my paper before buying more. I could really benefit from this one as I have a hard time resisting all the pretty papers they come out with & it is not only costly, but I'm running out of room to store it:)

    I hope to lose a few pounds, but I'm not trying all that hard. I'm hoping to just let it happen.

    Well, I have 2 main resolutions this year: 1. Do more stamping - I'm going to try and stamp at least one thing a week. This would be a great improvement over the last 2 years as I only stamped a couple of times last year. 2. Exercise 30 minutes a day at least 5 times a week. I've given up on the losing weight one, but maybe this will accomplish 2 things!
