I wanted to start the New Year with something different for me, that is sending out my first ever blog candy, in celebration of starting a year of new goals. Leave me a comment on what goal or goals you want to achieve this year.
Next Friday at 12 noon central standard time, I will randomly pick a winner, then ask for their mailing address to send,
One of the newest Flourishes releases, Love Nest
Along with a basic grey 6x6 pad, Pheobe
and a 3yd roll of, white with red dot grosgrain ribbon
My goal is to be a better person to all the people in my life, and to become better organized. The former is more important and the latter is going to be much harder for me.

I want to call old friends more often, and spend more time with my loved ones.
Oh, what AWESOME blog candy!! Everything is so yummy! My goal is to donate over $1000 to the Crohn's and Colits Foundation this year. Since I'm a SAHM with no income, I will be getting the money by forcing myself to not spend any on craft supplies (except adhesive and page protectors) for an entire year.
Thanks!

That is a gorgeous stamp set! WOW! Thank you for the kind offer to share it with one of your readers! I thinkyou are a very kind person!! :)I am going to work on eliminating some of the clutter (i.e. stamping & crafting stuff) in my possession by USING it!! I will make cards to share and give to organizations that could use an uplifting message or just to have them on hand I suppose....
My goal is to make a card weekly and send it to someone I do not know, by using a name on one of the many message boards I read. At least weekly, someone gives a name of someone who needs a boost.
Linda Peterson
My goal is not to say everything that comes into my head but to ponder on it first - it gives great results!
Your blog candy looks beautiful and thanks for your generous offer!

My Goals are to make a few cards a week , And our biggest is to make a 2008 baby ,,, I have 2 boys already they are 12 and 10 and now we decided Maybe one more would be nice !!!!
I have an unruly pile of family photos...well more like a mountain. I am good about taking the pictures and getting them developed but prior to digital I did NOT separate or put them into any sort of order (let alone an album). This bad habit stacked up about 12 years worth of photos! They are in a LARGE tote (still mostly in the developing envelope) Bad Mom! So I would like to get them sorted and maybe be inspired enough to scrap a page or two for each of my four children....
Thanks for the chance!
WHAT AN AWESOME 1st BLOG CANDY! Thank you for the chance. I hope to spend more time on the important stuff in 2008! AND less time on what is not important!
I'd like to do one anonymous good deed every day, lose weight, and stay as healthy as possible but mostly I am trying to create each day, even if it's just fifteen minutes (hopefully it's more) to keep up my creative spirits!
Mary Puskar
I want to scrap more in 2008 -- for myself, not just for my SU! business. Also I want to step my fitness plan this year. jostamper@nycap.rr.com

Thanks for sharing this with us. I think everyone has WONDERFUL goals for the new year! -Samantha
My goal is to stop hoarding my stash of supplies and start using them up by trying to complete at least 1 scrapbook layout each week.
This is so sweet of you! My goals this year is to scrap more and send out more cards to my family and online friends. And not to let the small things bother, to just brush them off. I'm the type of person that everything bothers.
Chrissy
Happy New Year! I hope I can keep my resolutions. One of them is to be more organized. This would include making and sending bday cards to everybody I know.
Thanks for sharing!
Happy New Year to you too! Thanks for the chance at some yummy blog candy! My first goal is to get organized this year. I am starting with my 12x12 paper and working on some kind of solution then I'll move to the next area!
Goals?? Stamp more and eat less, of course!
-Nancy Ann
WOW! Wonderful blog candy! One of my stamping goals is to stop being so hard on myself. Creative is fun but picky is not...

hiya! great idea! my aims are many!! be more confident,craft more get lots o scrapping done!! complete my teaching assistant course,and playworking course,
be more fun for my boys x and stop feeling guilty all the time,learn to love my descisions for they are ME!!!!!
I have a list of at least thirty goals, but some of them are to finish the quilts I'm making for my hubby & boys, to paint my craft/stamping/sewing room a cheerful color, and to try and remember to send cards for all of our extended family member's birthdays. I tend to fizzle out halfway through the year, and with all of the cards I make there is no reason that everyone shouldn't get one!
Wow that is a way cool set!
My goal is to complain less and enjoy the life I am living. As far as crafting my goal is to finish up projects I have started or have bought stuff for!
I hope to keep maintain my hobby this year..Every year i pick a new hobby and it fizzles out due to lack of interest or non-availability of materials..last year it was parchment craft, this year its stamping and card making. I've loved it so far (been 11 months and I'm still going strong)
Love the candy..
Tejal
Wow, excdllent giveaway! I'd like to lose weight this year - get back to what I weighed before kids...!
Dina
This set is so lovely, but then I am partial to birds :) My goals this year at to become better in the 3 H's --- Health (spiritual and physical), Home (spend more time with family and getting organized), Hobby (to increase my knowledge in the craft)
My word for the year is "potential" so I have a lot of things to work on and accomplish personally and stamping/scrappingly. Good luck everyone!
My goal for this year is to continue learning more about myself - giving myself credit for the things I do well and to quit picking on myself for the things I do wrong.
Jane
I'm hoping to set some attainable goals this year! Hopefully, be more productive in crafting, eat healthier, enjoy myself, and make time to see friends. Happy New Year!
My goal is to spend more time with friends, and also to stop going to the craft store so often! THanks for the chance at great candy, and good luck on your goals!

Goals I want to achieve this year...
I want to have all the renovations on our home done!
I want to take care of my back more so that I don't hurt!
I want to give to others more.
The list could go on and on...
Thanks for the chance.

I have several goals. One I have pertains to stamping. I need to stop hoarding the cards I make and send them to people. Happy New Year.
First I need to shake this horrible cold that I have had for weeks. My daughter did the same thing and only recovered from going to FLorida for 2 weeks. a luxury I cant afford as I dont have a rich boyfriend. (only a workaholic hubby) so as soon as I stop sneezing and wheezing, I am gonna start training for a fall marathon.
My goals are to spend more time with my family, friends and my stamps. I also want to get my messy self organized.
My goal is to be more healthy, and to let those I love----know it more!
Thanks for a chance at the awesome blog candy!
Lots to work on this year: spending more time with friends & family, start a family of our own, and pay more attention to my own needs because I tend to focus on those of others.
Happy new year and thank you for offering such generous blog candy!! :)
I know what you mean about starting the new year off right and wanting to be a better person......thank you for the blog candy as well. Happy New Years!!
My stamping goal this year is to use more of my "stash" and quit hoarding! And to send out more cards to my friends throughout the year.
My goal is to design something every-other day, every day during summer vacation. It's difficult most days after work, when so many other responsibilties :) are calling...
Have a wonderful New Year!!!
DeborahLynneS
my goal is also to become better organised and to maybe make a design team this year before the end...
My goal is to de-stress my life, to not "sweat the little things". Thanks for the chance to win such great blog candy!
Great stuff! My goat is to be more active in my online groups and clean up my workspace on an ongoing basis!
My goal for 2008 is to become a better designer in my card making. Thank you for the opportunity to win these stamps. I would love to win this set :)
My goal is to use the stamps I have never used! Of course, I still have to buy all of the new ones but I really want to use the ones I purchased last year that have not felt ink!!
Awesome bc! My goal is to oganize my craft room and then the other parts of the house which my crafts have taken over.
Oh, blog candy - love that new set!! My goal this year is to focus on my inner self - body, mind, and soul - I need a really good workout, mentally and physically.
Organization at work is #1. Personal goal is to return to an endurance building program. I have turned into such wimp when we're doing anything that takes long term endurance.
Great blog. I'm so glad I found it!
My goals :) I would like to start using my craft room. I've only had it for 3 years. I've used it to stuff my craft in it, but always like crafting besides my husband in the family room . LOL I would also like to stop procrastinating. so far so ..... OK not bad :)
Thanks for the chance to win a flourish stamp set. The more I look at them the more I want to order them.
My goal is to use the stuff that I've accumulated instead of buying more. Now, I'm not saying that I'll not buy new stuff until I've used the stuff that I already have, but I really need to cut into the paper, and ink up those stamps. Thanks for such a generous offer here.
Lately it seems I've spent more time looking at others' inspiring creations (there are SO many talented stampers out in blogland!) and then have not had much time left to stamp myself...so my goal is to start making time to stamp more. ;D
Thanks for giving us a chance to win your yummy blog candy!
My goal this year is to get better organized in my craft room and quit taking on so much that leaves me no time for other important things; More balanced. Does that make sense?
I was just looking at this stamp set over at Flourishes - would love the chance to win it.
Thanks
Sue R (rarinstamp@shaw.ca

I want to start using up my designer paper before I buy more, and increase my prayer and worship time.

My goal this year is to try to clean up my act and be a better person - to give to others - that could start by not hoarding embellies, but putting them on cards and sending them to people who need cheering up - a win-win situation - I get to play; they get a card
I have two goals this year..one is to eat more vegetables and the second is to do more scrapbooking....thanks for a great opportunity! deidrelm@hotmail.com
My goal is to get my house sold so that my daughter and I can relocate and our family can live together again.

Ooooh, candy -- yummy! My goal is go complete more challenges on SCS and other blogs.
Well, I've already missed my New Year's resolution....trying to stamp 'something' 4-5 days out of the week. Even if it was just a Background. Haven't been able to stampe at all this week. Plus, I'm not doing very well with organizing my crafting area when I go shopping for more fun stuff all the time. Thanks for the opportunity to win some blog bling!
My goal in 2008 is to finally get fit to be a better example to my children. Happy 2008 everyone! Hope that you do something today that makes you happy! Thank you for such generous candy! You are a gem!

Kind regards,
Trish
My goal would be to do more RAK's in 2008 than I was able to achieve in 2007
My resolutions are to get my new workspace set up as quickly as possible, to be published six times, and to start my own blog. To get a position on a design-team would be pure icing!
Thanks for making this wonderful set available!
What a sweet birdy and cage stamp set! Love that!
My goal - to stay healthy this year. I'm just now getting over my umpteenth cold that I got right before Christmas 2007. No more sickies!!!
I have a few goals in mind....
1. Get my back healthy again...last 2 months of 2007 were the absolute pits!
2. Start selling my cards.
Thanks for the great blog candy...it all looks soooo yummy! Hope I win it!
My goals for 2008 are to declutter my life, to work out more by exercising, doing more cards and art projects to work my mind in a peaceful and calm manner and to eat heathier. The past 1 1/2 years have been spent either helping to take care of my mother before she passed away from breast cancer and handling her estate so I need some me time to just be in the moment.
Thanks for sharing your wonderful cards with us all. You are helping to get my creative mojo working again.
My goals for this year, are to follow my bliss- last year I took things to seriously and let things get me down.. "NOT IN 2008 though", I am going to work out faithfully, ( I need tog et back into shape), I am going to be a better person and focus on the things that are more important in life....
Thank you fo the chance to win sucha lovely candy.. Can't wait to look through your site and at the other stamps.
My goals this year:
1. Get fit/eat healthy (continued from 2007)
2. Stamp/Scrapbook more
3. Pay off some of those "unneccesary" debts.
My goal is to exercise more ... not just my stamping arm but the whole body :)
Happy new year!
KathyJ (kjacobson@charter.net)
A couple of goals; the main one is to organize my stamp room so I can actually get in the door. The other is to get to Curves so my membership doesn't go to waste. It would be nice to get to under a 100 pounds again. Don't yell at me, I'm very petite. Yea, another new blog and even better, blog candy. You're so generous. Thanks and Happy New Year!
Cheryl in Reno-Sparks, Nevada.
My personal goal would be to spend more time with friends and family to strengthen relationships.
My stamping goal is to send more cards to magazines hoping to be published.
Those stamps are cute! My goal for 2008 is to set time aside each day for me to stamp/craft for me! Just for fun.
Your blog is great.
My goals are to organize -- my stamp room, my house (especially the attic and basement), and my life. Not so little a goal I'll tell you!! Thanks for the chance to win a truly lovely set! Jeanne
My goal is to be more organized (is probably an illusive dream for me). Thanks for your generosity in offering this great set, etc.!
My goal too is to become more organized.
I've had to become more organized. I went from a double car garage that was renovated to a 11 x 12 foot room! Once you start everything will "fall" into place.
Good luck!
Hugs,
Joani
joanmcdonald@roadrunner.com
I'm determined to shed some of the pounds that have crept up on me over the past few years. Also, must MAKE more cards instead of COLLECTING supplies for cards!!
Thanks.
my goal this year is to spend less time on the pc and more time in my craft room, organizing and using my stamping supplies
Cara
My goal this year is to work towards simplifying my hectic life! Thanks for this awesome opportunity!
I love birdies!!! Ok, my goal this year is to work on more scrapbook pages. I collect the supplies and never make time to use them and create with them! I also want to be on top (ie early) with upcoming birthday/anniversary cards.
Thanks for asking and for this opportunity!
