GIVEAWAY Time!!
It’s the most wonderful time…of the year! lol! 
It’s time for my second Giveaway!! I hope your all as excited as I am! WAHOO! So here’s the scoop! Hmmm….why don’t you leave a comment and tell me what your favorite patterned paper company is! Mine is Cosmo Cricket and Crate Paper! Also, if you have my blog linked or would like me to link your blog please add that as well! Thanks a million!! I will randomly draw a winner on Sunday (March 25th) afternoon!
So what’s all included!? 1 Prima Big Box Blooms, 1 Paper Crafts Magazine (newest one), 1 Cosmo Cricket Rubon’s for all, a handfull of Prima Hydrangea’s, 3 yards of Burgundy and Light Organdy May Arts Polka Dot ribbon, 1 spool (4 yards) of pinkish striped ribbon from Michales and 1 pack of Making Memories paper (includes striped and polkadotted paper)
I’d also like to share this card I made a little while back for the Spring Inkadinkado contest! I didn’t win, but I still love the card! Hope you enjoy!! Have a great day!!
OK, that is a tough question… I am not partial to any paper company… I just buy what catches my eye. I have been leaning towards quite a bit of the 3 Bugs in a Rug line lately though…
And yup, you’re linked on my blog…. link to mine if you’re interested!
Hmmm, my Favorites are: Basic Grey, Chatterbox, Crate and Bohemia…in no specific order.
I have you linked…and you are on my Google Reader…thanks for all the great inspiration!
What fun, a give away. Sadly I haven’t met many patterned papers I didn’t like. I would never be able to narrow it down to just one. A few of my favorites are Doodlebug, Basic Grey and Daisy D’s. Though I agree with Nancy, I just buy what catches my eye mostly.
I don’t have a blog to link you to, but you can bet I would if I had one. Love your work.
Thanks,
Chris Hauck
Hmm.. I’m lovin Basic Grey and Minds Eye Bohemia… I think I could eat it and why not… I eat just about everything else!
Kisa Peters
PS… Off to check out the new ribbon… which looks pretty yummy too!
My favorite patterned paper company is Stampin’ Up! I’m partial to them because I enjoy having paper that matches with my stamps. I think that makes it so much easier for those of us that stuggle to come up with good cards and matches.
Heather Stevens
Great candy! I’d have to say that I do love SU!’s DP lately, it seems so fresh and springy but I also love Basic Grey! Although I did just buy some pretty Chatterbox paper!
Anyway, I do have you linked on my blog would love to be linked if you want to! Thanks for the contest - love your blog!!
Ah-what great candy!!
My favorite paper? I like Chatterbox. I haven’t been to a real scrapbook/stamping store, so I would love to go and check out all different brands! Thanks for the chance!!
Awesome giveaway - and that card is freakin’ adorable!! My favorite paper company is Basic Grey, although Stampin Up comes in a close second. I really enjoy reading your blog.
Megan
Oooooooooooohhhhhhhh! What a cool giveaway!
My “current” favorite is Chatterbox, but that could change when I go to the store next *wink*. Also love Basic Grey. I’d love to have you link to my blog, you’re already linked from mine.

Leah4837.blogspot.com
Even though I have a lot of it, but haven’t used a lot of it, I would have to say Chatterbox.
Well I quite like Chatterbox since I can find it but I would love to get some of that Dutch girl paper that Taylor has been working with lately…cheers!
OMG…I totally forgot to say that I loved your card…those little bird stamps rock!
What a sweet Spring Card! Your boys are also cute as can be! My favorite papers are Crate and Basic Grey.
Love those Hydrangeas! Thanks for putting up such generous blog candy!
WOW! great blog candy!!! and an original Jacksonbelle card to boot!!!
My favorite pattern paper is a toss between 2 companies . . . Basic Black and Crate Paper. I have recently been playing with both and so loving them! I would love to play with the Making Memories striped & polka dot ones you have up there. lol! good luck everyone!
Tina
that should be Basic Grey . . . I shouldn’t talk on the phone and type at the same time . . . snort!
The little bird card is awesome!!!
I am not really partial to any…I’ve love the Basic Grey everyone has been working with. Tempted to try it out. My pattern paper usually come from Micheals but I found another store in Abbotsford called Urban Trends that has more stuff.
YM
My all time favorite paper is Basic Grey with Cosmo Cricket and Crate following. My recent discovery of the Tres Jolie by My Mind’s Eye might be my current favorite. Oh, that’s 4 not one. Yur chickie card is darling and the Blog Candy is incedible.
BASIC GREY!!!! I am liking the Prima papers and I just got some cosmo cricket so I am branching out now!
hi Lindsey - what a great give-away! my favorite paper company is Stampin’ Up because i love how you can get all the coordinating embellishments. i really like their patterned papers too. aside from SU, i like Basic Grey and Cloud 9 and Crate Paper.
i enjoy your blog - have a great weekend!!
Beth (mommy to a busy 3 1/2 year old)
I think SU has some really nice DP. I’m not familiar with too many others, but I’d really like to have some Basic Grey….
Hi, I totally love Creative Imaginations (Marah Johnson), Basic Grey, SU paper,Cosmo Cricket, My Minds Eye and KI (Elsie Flannigan paper).
Thanks- Have a great weekend!
Christine
So many beautiful papers out there to choose from but chatterbox and basic grey are consistantly good. Great looking candy- yum!
yum yum blog candy!
mmmmmmmmmm paper,,, (I am a paperslut) basic grey, cratepaper, su, chatterbox, Cosmo Cricket and many many more
I think right now my favorite pattern paper company is Basic Grey, but it might change after I get a few orders in of course! Thanks you for the candy, it looks wonderful!
oh man - I’ve seen awesome papers out there & up until recently I’ve been exclusive to SU! but I fell in love with Debbie Olson’s use of Blush by Basic Grey so I ordered it and drooled over the Pheoebe but of course it’s on backorder! So I have to patiently wait for it to arrive!! Ugh
You’re linked on my blog - here’s mine
http://www.stampamaniac.blogspot.com
Yummy candy!
I like so many that others have mentioned so I’ll toss out two others that I really like as well: Fancy Pants and Luxe Designs.
I love your blog! My favorite paper companies are K & Company and Kaleidoscope and whatever catches my eye!
Heather
http://stampdetails.blogspot.com
Wow…there are so many gorgeous papers out there to chose from. Normally I just buy whatever catches my eye but lately I’ve been looking at the Basic Grey, Chatterbox, Chatterbox and Crate. I don’t think I have it in me to every be “faithful” to one paper line. lol There’s just too much choice!
Lovely candy, Lindsay! I am torn between Crate and Basic Grey - I’m loving the Phoebe right now! And I do have a link to your blog from mine: http://thecraftycat-michelle.blogspot.com/
I’m a big fan of your work!
It’s Basic Grey for me!!
The only ones I am really familiar with are StampinUp and Basic Grey. I really like Basic Grey! Thanks for the chance for the awesome candy!
Wow! What a fantabulous giveaway! I really like all things Basic Grey, but honestly, they are too pretty and inconsistent that I never know how to use them. My favorite paper that I actually use is Chatterbox. I love the uniformity of designs (i.e. I’m not afraid to separate part of it from the rest) and the whole room theme is really cool.
What a cute card too! Those little chicks are darling!
Your spring card is so cute! Great candy too. My favorite paper company is Die Cuts With a View. I love their paper stacks.
Oh, without a doubt Basic Grey & Chatterbox - in that order!
Basic Grey Co. has really outdone themselves with their new 6 X 6 packs & the scaled down patterns! There are not many that I don’t like…hmmm, quite honestly - I like them all!!!
My favorite paper company is My Mind’s Eye, although I really like most paper companies. Another one high on my list is Basic Grey.
Hmmm…maybe..Wild Asparagus? It’s quickly becoming Basic Grey…but that seems so cliche too. Guess I just love all paper? lol
I just found you and am definitely adding you to my google reader (b/c 100+ is not enough!)!!!
Thanks for sharing!!
~Lana B.~
I Really love DaisyD because of the vintage style paper and Basic Grey because of the quality!
Awesome blog candy! My favorite paper right now is Basic Grey - especially the new stuff. By the way, those boys of yours are too sweet! And thanks for sharing.
What a stunning card!! I can’t believe you didn’t win!! I would have given you the gold!! Heehee!
If you’ve been to my blog (and I know you have) you will know that my fave patterened paper is Basic Grey. I have all the collection packs, even two of some and I use them ALL the time!!
Of course I have you linked on my blog and I think I’m already on yours too!!
I’m totally drooling at your blog candy….those primas are dee-lish!!! Good luck everyone!!
My all time favorite cardstock has to be Stampin’ Up, but my recent patterned paper craze is from Crate Paper. Love the colours and texture of all that paper!!
I am a use what I love girl. If it catches my eye then that is what I grab. I love Stampin’Up! paper because it coordinates with all their stuff. Problem is I get sick of it pretty darn quick because of all of the fabulous things people do with it over at SCS. I love your blog, thanks for sharing!
wow! Great blog candy!! My blog is http://www.stampinthis.blogspot.com! My favorite patterned paper company is either DCWV or any Rob & Bob Studio paper!! Great blog, I am loving it!! =)
-Lauren
Love your blog & card.
My favorite paper is Basic Grey.
I am on my way to link to your blog & if you would like mine to yours that would be wonderful!
Cheers!
I LOVE Scenic Route and Basic Grey!!!
LOVE your blog - GREAT JOB!!!
our card is adorable. I really like the patterned paper that TAC carries I am also fond of Me and My Big Ideas. Honestly, I like lots and lots~LOL! I own way to much. I am known to hoard it.
I would ove you to link my blog here. I would love for you to check it out and see if you think it is worth the link!
Great card, Linz — surely a winner in my book, adorable chicks! I think right now my favoite paper is probably BasicGrey, in general. Great tip about the hyacinths, LOL!
Will I love Basic Grey and Crate Paper - but I was in a fabulous scrapbook store today in St. Louis and saw some awesome paper that had matching fabric tape but I can’t remember the name of it. I thought of you as I was meanduring around the store - they had lots of things that you sell - you have better prices, BTW. It would have been fun to have had you with me.
Love your chick card!!! So very Springy! My favorite designer paper is Chatterbox - several reasons - they are located here in the Boise valley - Melody Ross IMO is genuine, gracious, down to earth, and a very talented artist. Chatterbox papers have colors and designs to go with just about any theme, color combo and/or stamp I want to use. I really like the ability to choose from light weight paper or the cardsock weight.
A few of my other frequent purchases include: Basic Grey, My Minds Eye, Crate, Creative Imagination, and Die Cuts With a View (especially those papers with all the glitter!!).
Great blog and we are already linked. Lila
I’ve really been enjoying Basic Grey patterned papers lately.
Cindy
I don’t have a favorite I use all the time, but I really like the double sided Chatterbox paper I used to make some frames and wall decorations.
I think I have only used Stampin’ Up!’s Designer paper so I don’t really know any other, and to be honest I haven’t used it on my cards until this year! *gasp* I know, where have I been????? I have been checking out Cindy’s (http://stampalicious.typepad.com/)Basic Grey share. There are some beautiful papers!
Basic Grey is my favorite. I seem to like all their designs!
DeniseB
My favorite paper companies are Chatterbox, Wild Asparagus, and Basic Grey. Oh yeah, and Daisy D’s. Your card is so cute! I just got that birdie stamp last week and love it. I’d love to be linked here http://wildrosestamper.typepad.com.
I like the spring card. My favourite paper, (or one of ) would be KI.
Oh Lindsey I LOVE that card sooo much - just LOVE it!!! It is incrediblly sweet! Fave papers are hard to choose, but I think I’d have to say Basic Grey.
My favourite paper is Basic Grey. I love their colours and the weight of their double sided papers.
I just discovered your blog and will be linking to you if that’s ok with you.
My blog is http://www.marielovestostamp.blogspot.com
My favourite paper is from SU. I like that it goes with the stamp set. Easy to match.
I have your blog under favourite but not on my blog. Now it is. I’m new in blogging so things get done ever so slowly.
My blog: http://www.destampincorner.blogspot.com
I would have to say my favorites are Basic Grey and My Minds Eye. Their papers are so DELICIOUS!
Your card is so sweet, it looks fantastic! I think my favourite paper at the mo is Basic Grey
jo xx
Personal favorite is My Minds Eye as I love double sided cardstock and the quality of this paper is great. A close second choice would be the DCWV paper stacks, especially Far East and Old World as the patterns and textures are gorgeous!!
Darling card. Love those little birdies.
Those little birds are just too cute!
Today, my favourite paper is Basic Grey…tomorrow, well it might be another choice. Age will do that to a person, sometimes!
I love Basic Grey and Stampin’ Up too. BTW that card is pretty cute!
Daisy D’s has some of the most beautiful paper. Also I am very partial to Rouge de Garance. There are absoultely beautiful!
I love patterned paper! I especially love Cosmo Cricket & Basic Grey.
If I ever start blogging, I’ll be sure to include your link!
Lindsey
My favorite paper is Basic Grey of course. Love
the new phoebe and scarlet ruby, although all their
papers are beautiful.. Please add my email to \
link to your blog when you update…Thanks, honey
Barb (btexpress)
Hmmm…If I had to pick one…I’d say Basic Grey. In large part because they make the 6X6 which has the nice, smaller patterns for card making.
I love American Craft paper, especialy the double-sided.
Oh, that’s an easy question. I absolutely LOVE Basic Grey patterned paper.
Diane
I don’t venture outside of the SU world much since I am a demo and find I don’t use the other stuff I buy that much. I did recently buy some Crate paper though and love the texture of it. I also love the “paper” I create using the Cuttlebug. It is something to do with the texture/feel I guess.
Wow!!!! I am excited about this giveaway. I love Wild Asparagus and Bohemia. I bought lots of Bohemia to scrapbook photos of my boys in a rural PA creek setting and they turned out BEAUTIFULLY! I also have begun to purchase Stampin Up patterned paper to make cards that coordinate with the inks I already have. I started doing this with some of my Christmas cards last year - great cards in a snap. I enjoy your blog.
I haven’t gotten in to using much patterned paper, but I love the Basic Grey collections.
My favorite patterned paper is Melissa Frances!
Claudia F.
I’m with you - I am so in love with Cosmo Cricket and Crate Paper, but there are several others I always like - Basic Grey being one of them.
I love to embellish with flowers, so hope I win this package.
Yummy blog candy!! I love Basic Grey. Its so hard to cut up their paper bc its so pretty. I will have to check out Cosmo Cricket and Crate Paper. BTW I am all out of Primas…hehehe
I am going to link your awesome blog in mine. I would love to be linked on yours. My site is http://inkastamp.blogspot.com
Thanks Ana
Oooh, paper…I love tons of lines. Right now it’s Basic Grey and Wild Asparagus.
I would love if you would link my blog: http://lkryb.blogspot.com
I will link yours soon!
I love your work and I am so glad you have a blog.
Patteren paper…. I’d have to say SU only cause i don’t get out and see any other kind! I know how is that possible? i need a life!!
Love your little chickie card!
Hmmm…I picked up some sweet DaisyDs & 7gypsies paper the other day that I love. But it really varies from day to day. *rolls eyes* Thanks!
Hi again,
You give away the funnest stuff!! I too have never met a Patterned Paper company I didn’t like. I seem to be partial to My Mind’s Eye Bohemia, Melissa Frances, and of course my stand by - Basic Grey.
I’m off to find the link to subscribe to your blog. Have a great day and tell Brett, “Hi!”.
I love lots of different patterned paper, but I guess I would have to say BasicGrey. Congratulations on your publication in the April/May issue of Paper Crafts! Gorgeous Bride to Be Recipe Card!
Woo-hoo! I love contests! And like many others have said, I don’t have a favorite company as I buy whatever catches my eye. I’ve just gotten some “Floral Crochet-Pink” from Sandy Lion and I love it!
Yep, I link your blog on mine. Please feel free to add mine if you’d like!
I love the SU paper. Also, the new collections from Basic Grey. Love your blog and the candy is great too. Janet in NC
Love 3 Bugs in a Rug and Dream Street.
My favorite patterned paper is Basic Grey Blush line.
Love the color family and the subtle tones.
Lynda
Lately I have been drawn to Chatterbox papers. Cosmo Cricket would be the next one. I do not buy patterned paper as often as I would like though.
I like Wild Asparagus and Crate papers..I love the old west, calico type of stuff! And, I am happy to link my blog here because I check in on a very regular basis…Thanks for tip about flowers under the dryer vent. I might have to remember that this fall.
I like most paper as my stamping closet will attest to. But I like shimmery paper and KI memories and Reminisce both have soem new ones this spring. KI is very springlike and REminisce had St Patty’s ones, so I got a bunch of both.
If you can tell me how to put a link in my blog, I will be happy to do that. My blog can be reached by clicking on my name-both of them. but for anyone interested its http://papertango.blogspot.com/
Well for me I will have to say stampin’up.I love the paper in their catalog and they are always adding new paper in there minni catalogs.My new favorite is Petals & Paisleys.
Hi, new to your blog! I, like the others, love all types of patterned paper!!! If I had to choose my top 3, it would be SEI (they have a great club), crate paper and Bo-Bunny.
I love basic grey and SU! Love your cards and am subscribing to your blog!
how fun that I stubled upon your blog today!
My favorite papers are Scrappy Chick. But, I’m a bit partial since I design for Sc. I also adore Basic Grey.
I love the card you made. It’s very cute!
My absolutely favorite paper right now is American Crafts. I loved the “Play” line….such fun bold prints. I haven’t done any cards with them, but they look fabulous in my scrapbooks!!
My favorite by far today is the cosmo cricket and wild asparagis (I don’t think I spelt that correctly…. whoops)… they have so many fun papers…
My favorite is Basic grey , I do love most of the SU…Thanks for the chance !!!!shannmad87@hotmail.com
I would say that I love CratePaper’s paper…..its double sided and I love the patterns
I have too many favorites for scrapbooking papers. My favorite would have to be Rusty Pickle.
Thanks for sharing!
Leslie
Wow!! Add me to the list of loving the Basic Grey! I always seem to buy way more than I need,, you know you need those extra 5 sheets incase you make a mistake on the first 5 you bought!!!! LOL Great blog, I love it!!!
Kristen
I don’t have much experiance with patterned paper, so my favorite right now would have to be Die Cuts With a View. Can’t wait to get some Basic Gray paper, soon.
Hi Lindsey,
Just found your blog–great job! I love Basic Grey, Cosmo Cricket and Crate (oops–that’s three, oh well).
Lois H
What a cute card. Perfect for Easter. My fav. paper is Wild Asparagus and Basic Grey 2nd. Nancy
Can anyone have a favorite? There are so many pretty ones out there! I lean more towards Basic Grey “Phoebe” at the moment. I have used more of Phoebe on my cards, decoupaged shelfs, boxes, etc. than any other in the past couple of weeks! The pinks and greens are soooooo pretty! Love your blog!
My new favorite “this week” is the Tres Jolie collection from My Minds Eye. Love your spring card, it is a must CASE!
I love Rob and Bob paper from Provo because it coordinates with Cuttlebug embossing folders.
I adore your chicky card! What kind of paper did you stamp it on?
Linked to your blog. Please link to mine!! http://blog.360.yahoo.com/rubyslippers74
Great blog candy! Thank you for sharing. My favorite paper is Stampin’ Up. I really don’t know the other paper companies by name.
I love the cute little chicks! They are too cute! I love your blog candy. My favorite paper..at least right now..is 3bugsinarow. I don’t know if it’s the crazy patterns or the colors that draw me in either way..I love it!
xoxo

visit my blog at http://roneemalama.blogspot.com
I think…. my favorite paper would have to be… fancy pants, or basic gray. I’m into swirls and flourishes and all things fancy! Oh, and flowers. Great site!
Emily
Great blog candy!! Thanks for your generosity:) My fav paper company is definitely Basic Grey!
Hmmm fav paper, lately it has been Basic Grey, but I also love Crate paper…………I have you linked on my blog so feel free to link my measly little ol’ blog to yours if you like.
Great blog!
I have to say my latest faves are Crate & Bohemia….my tastes changw like the weather but a constant to compliment my designer papers is always the textured Bazil in all the pretty colors!
I would have to say SU and Chatterbox.
What a great give away…
My fav is Basic Grey.
I never cared for patterned paper at all until Basic Grey. Their new paper (Stella Ruby, Scarlet’s letter, Phoebe etc) is out of this world. Magic beauty! I wish I could marry it.
I love Basic Gray and The Angel Companies papers.
Thanks,
Heather B
Hello, I love Stampin Up paper, but I would have to say that the Basic Grey paper is growing in my house lately
Tanya
oh lindsey sign me up for this yummy blog candy! my fave would have to be basic grey - love that stuff!
I love that card with the birds. Adorable. Perfect placement and great colors. My favorite paper? Right now it is the 6 x 6 Basic Grey paper packs. Easy to store and love the smaller scale designs.
My favorites are Stampin Up, Basic Gray and Wild Asparagus papers. I hoard it, and that’s not what I buy it for, but it is just SOOOOO pretty.
My favorite is
doodlebug, Basic Grey and Bo Bunny. I haven’t tried Crate Paper. Maybe I should.
My *FAVORITE* paper company would have to be Rusty Pickle! So many of their papers are already vintagey and weathered looking. But others have such amazing graphics - like their Halloween and Christmas papers. And not only do I love their papers, I love their name, too…
Basic Grey, of course! However, Crate Paper is pretty close also.
I’m still a Basic Gray fan! Love their paper!
I’m pretty new to stamping but, so far, I like Basic Gray papers.
I’ve just discovered the world of patterned paper, and just love the 8×8 Shangri-la Pallette by Paper Reflections. Love your blog!
Hi LIndsey,
