OOOOOOOOO Super!!!! Yummers! Thanks, Mary!
My fave technique is paper piecing because it just looks so darn cool! But my most used technique is paper piercing :)
Off to spread the word! HUGS
Yummy Candy Mary! I love inking all over my pages and cards and sewing. I'm equally obsessed with both!
You're giving away more goodies?!? You are crazy generous! Since I won Flutter just last month, please don't enter me in the drawing. I just wanted to play along with the question! :D
Not that I've done it much, but I'd have to agree with Kadie and say the paper piecing. It totally changes the look of a stamp. What am I waiting for??? LOL!
Hugs,
Catherine
OOoo!! What delicious candy Mary!! I want to play with that glitter! My favorite technique besides watercoloring has to be sponging/distressing. Love how it gives every card just that little bit extra! I've got my fingers crossed!! I'll add your candy to my blog too Mary!
GORGEOUS CANDY!!!
My favorite technique - inking. I think it helps to set the layers apart, it helps to cover any mistakes you might have made, and I think it helps to link things together.
I'll post your candy details on my blog tomorrow!
Right now, my favorite technique is coloring with my Copics. I am still learning how to get nice effects with these fantastic pens!
Your candy is on my blog. What a great selection of "sweets"!
What positively delicious candy -- you have a generous heart! Hmmm, my favorite technique has to be paper-piecing - I am still learning and trying to figure it out but love the process!
I love your blog, its so cool, and your candy looks scrumptious.
My favourite technique is colouring with alcohol markers, i'm having so much fun developing my shading skills, and they are perfect for The Greeting Farms stamps which i adore :)
Thank you for sharing you wonderful creations with us, you are truly inspiring.

Fantastic candy! Thanks for the chance to win! I think my favourite card technique is colouring with Copics. Love those markers. :)
Fun blog candy! Thank you!
My favorite technique at the moment is coloring in images with my Copic markers. I'm still learning how to use them for shading, etc and having a great time with it. My next favorite technique is following a sketch.
My favorite technique right now is embossing with my texture plates from various companies (Cuttlebug, Stamping Up!, Fiskar's, and Sizzix). Then I use decorative paper for an added touch! I love it! There are endless possibilities!
WOWZA! Would you LQQK at that FAB candy?! My FAVE technique for card making is embossing, both dry and heat embossing.
I don't have a blog of my own but I do have e-mail and I have sent a link to your site to all my crafty gal pals!

My favorite technique is pop up, because I like to cut out.... I'm a follower and I posted a link on my sidebar.Welcome to my blog...
Hello Mary,
you have a fantastic blog! I am so in love with the Greeting Farm's stamps and you make such beautiful cards with them... I'd love to be a part of your candy draw too, I popped up a note in my sidebar of your candy and you definitely go to my Google Reader too :) I can never get enough TGF!
Stupid me, forgot to tell about my favorite card making technique... Well, I'm really new to this hobby all in all, and I haven't yet tried embossing, which looks absolutely great in many different ways (textures and accents...). That is what I'd *love* to try, but so far my favorite technique is definitely paper stressing, it doesn't need special equipment - I do my edgings with a paper knife. It makes such a nice vintage look on papers and you can play with colors too.
xx,
nunt

I'm not sure what is my favourite technique since I've only been making cards for about six months and everything is new to me. But I do use decorative scissors a lot so maybe it's cutting paper to bits and pieces :-)

My favourite technique to use when card making is heat embossing (tho since my heat gun melted I haven't been able to do it for awhile... sigh!)
But I love not only the look of heat embossing, but also that it gives the card a raised texture.

What fabulous candy ~ I've linked your giveaway on my blog. I think my favorite technique is coloring with copics (now that I have them, I don't know how I got by without them). I love the shading you can get with them as well as the streak free coloring. I also love paper piecing, and don't nearly do that enough, but I love how you can incorporate your background DP into your image with it.
Thanks for the chance to win these goodies :)
Great candy. I put the link on my side bar.
My faworite tehnike? I don't have one. I like to try everything new. But, for now, i can say: distresing and embosing.
Wow love your Blog! My favorite tech. is watercoloring with my watercolor pencils and my SU blender pens.
-Jen
Cuttlebug Embossing folders. I just love them. They go with everything. You are very generous to give away blog candy.
Love Love Love it.
Help I'm lost and I don't know what I'm doing.
One of my favorite techniques is using black and white (sometimes with a punch of color, but only one). Love the simplicity of it.
Have been following the hop and checking out what everyone is doing. I need to find more time (seriously).
Hi
My favourite tech is either paper piercing or embossing, you can get some great rewsults with either of these and I love them both.
Even though I am a little late I have linked you on my sidebar.
Kim xXx
Yummy candy! I am loving using my copic markers and layers and I love to tear paper.
Mentioning you on my blog!
Wow! what great candy!
My favourite technique is dry embossing my cardstock that I use with my patterned paper (usually running it through my Cuttlebug). It just gives that extra touch.
Love your blog!! My favorite card technique right now is using digital papers and designing the card in Photoshop before printing it! LOVE the undo function ;)
Great Candy! Thanks for the chance to win, I've linked your candy on my blog, and I'm follower too.

Great Blog Candy! I love the color you use in your cards!!
Hello! My favorite technique you ask? Well, since I am a beginner, I don't have many techniques. So far, paper piercing and distressing the edges of card with ink seems to be the safest techniques for me to do. But reading all the comments here has given me some ideas! Thanks for letting me play!
My fav technique has got to be cuddlebugging for texture......lv it
Laurie VF
I am loving my Copic markers and shading all my stamps. I want to play with glitter more and I want to really learn how to add all those layers to a card so that it really 'works'!
my would have to be the ribbon on the edge of the paper.
I love to use watercolors and embossing
My new found love are the copic markers. I love coloring and blending with them
Oh, so hard to pick one, but for me, Copics and embossing are must haves for my cards!! Thanks for this great chance!
Um, I am known as the POP DOT QUEEN! I absolutely just simply cannot make ANYTHING without at least one (layer!) of pop-dots! Once made a desk calendar and popped up so many pages---it wouldn't close! Lol! Thanks for the blog candy! Blessings, Sharon
Ya me! Thanks so much Mary ... I sent you my address. I can't wait to play with such fab goodies. HUGS and happy scrapping, Christine
