  2. I can not pick a favorite post as I love to read all of them and see what you and your talented designers have created. The sneak peaks really are wonderful and once I see them I can hardly wait to see the complete sets.
    A very happy anniversary to you. I feel your stamps are the most classy on the web.

  4. I like the feature Project of the Month because I am always looking for ways to use my stamps for gift items. I especially liked the bracelet from Jan 08, the soap from Oct 08 and the clear box from Sept 09. I also liked the Yummy Monday post from 7/27/09 showing a cute jam label. Of course I keep coming back for all the wonderful card ideas too!

  5. My favorite post has to be when you gave us sneak info of the Hibiscus! My all-time favorite flower. I got so excited – I could hardly wait to order it, and could hardly wait for my real, live, dinner-plate size hibiscus to start blooming! Love those hibiscus!

  7. Hi Maria: Happy two year anniversary! Seems like only yesterday that I got my first KSS set. The roses! Now I have almost all of the sets and love them all. Sounds like I will need a few more sets soon. My favorite thing about your blog is when you post the color recipies. That is a huge help to me. I also love seeing your smiling face at the top of the blog post! Here’s hoping you continue to blog and create for many years to come!

  8. Congrats KSS on your 2nd Anniversary! My favorite post was learning about the GA class, and knowing I was going to be able to play with the big kids! I learned so much and am so much more confident in my KSS stamping now. Can’t wait to see what’s next on my list. Much luck Maria, hugzzzz

  12. I love the excitement of the sneek peeks of new sets. I love your 3-step stamp sets. And I love the samples that you post for ideas. I love everything about you! I have been looking for a long time for a good realistic orchid flower. You filled my wishes for the pansy. Hope you do the same for an orchid.

  23. Congratulations! I keep coming back to see different ways your wonderful sets get used. I especially like to get new color combo ideas for the 3-step sets (I get a little intimidated when trying to pick 3 or 4 colors to use on a single flower). Looking forward to seeing the new sets, and thanks so much for the chance to win!
