Help! (Oh, and blog candy too!) *ETA with the candy details!

So I am planning on picking up some things at Cornish Heritage Farms ( I won 20% off!) and have to spend it within the next 30 days! I want to keep my total under $75....... I was going to get the big variety pack of Twinkling H2O's.......but they aren't in the shop anymore! So give me some suggestions!!!! To help ya, I have already purchased in the past:

Kim Hughes Pretty Birds
Kim Hughes Tag! You're It!
Kim Hughes U R A Hoot
Kim Hughes Landing Pad
Lined Paper backgrounder

So you can see that I LOVE the Kim Hughes Sets! LOL! I love to color.......but I'm not interested in the Thomas Kinkade or Elvis.......too advanced for me right now! LOL!

I would love to hear some suggestions of what I should buy, or what you can recommend, so leave your suggestion on this post. If I used one of your suggestions, you will win some blog candy!!!!! I'll choose up to 5 winners ( hopefully I have at least 5 visitors out there!), and will draw on Sunday evening! Tonight when I get home, I'll post what the blog candy is exactly! :)

**ETA*** This is what I'll be giving away:
1 package Basic Grey Obscure chipboard shapes
1 package Studio G mini wooden alpha set
1 package Studio G acrylic stamps (from series 14)
1 Making Memories Cheeky polka dot mini album
1 K & Company polka dot & gingham mini album


Thanks everyone!

Hi April!

I love your blog, it's so cute. I'd be glad to help. These are so cool, I've never heard of them. I do prefer the KH ones too.

Here are my suggestions:

Christmas Cheer. You can never have enough holiday stamps.

A welcome hug, love the crown and key and looks like you could use that set for a lot of things.

Hey April,

I went and checked and would do the Stamp of the Month called Kissable Tree -- it is so you and I can see you cutting it out and putting it on a card.

Have a great day,

Karen

Ohhh, I'd love to help you spend your money :)

Definitely the kissable tree (Stamp of the month for August). It's totally cute, inexpensive and you can use it on scrapbook pages as well.

I really like the Silhoutte blooms and or the Nature Blooms. I like the Silhouettes II set the most and then the Nature Blooms.

Other than the Kim Hughes you should try some of the Rummage Bin sets. I'm totally in love with the Christmas Vintage signage (http://www.cornishheritagefarms.com/product_info.php/cPath/376_406_405/products_id/7938).

And the flourishes on this set are awesome: http://www.cornishheritagefarms.com/product_info.php/cPath/376_406_405/products_id/7632

And finally if you want to try something different, this shoe set is fun: http://www.cornishheritagefarms.com/product_info.php/cPath/376_406_405/products_id/7833

And PS....I never tried a Kinkade image until recently and it's really not as hard as you think. :)

I liked the Christmas Saturday Evening Post on the opening page. Then I loved a bunch of the Kim Hughes ones.

And I think I will have to order some myself. (Bad Melissa!!!!!)

You have to get the Pretty Pattern backgrounder, and the Scalloped backgrounder. Also, the Birthday Centers set is full of fabulous sentiments for *inside* your cards! Have fun shopping :)
