How to pick a 'favorite'??? oye! *grin* You've done SOO many gorgeous things. hmmm *ponder*ponder* I think either the Daffodils or the Calla Lilies.
Valita.. everything you post on here is so awesome. Your talent is matched only by your generosity!
Wow, CONGRATS on 4,000 subscribers and followers!! I enjoy watching your video tutorials on YouTube (I'm subscribed to your channel on there). I didn't know you had a blog! Following now!

Valita
You are sooo inspiring, and your work never ceases to amaze me! I love all your flowers, and have tried to make several like yours.:) I follow your blog. Thanks for this chance. :)
I'm not sure but, I think I might have screwed up my comment! Anyway, Valita I think you're an inspiration to us all. I'm a follower of your You Tube channel and your blog. My favorite project.. it's almost impossible to pick just one but, for the purpose of this Give-Away, I'll say the Calla Lilies! *grin* btw.. I made some Easter cards using your 'Simple Punch Art Tulips' and got totally rave reviews! Thank you so much.

I have been a follower ever since :)

Since I check your Blog every time you post, I have seen you use these tools on all projects. The most recent being the Tulip which I just loved.
i've already left a comment on youtube but had to say how wonderful the necklaces and rings were.
I enjoyed watching you use this tool on the Simple Punch Flower video. I even went in to Ebay however I didn't have much luck finding it there. I have been using a small spoon to curl the paper and while it works it sure would be easier with this tool. Thanks for your very well done videos and patterns. I have made some lovely cards because of them.
I first saw you use this tool on your Simple Punch Flower Video and I tried to purchase it on Ebay, however was not able to find it. I have been using a small spoon which works, however it sure would be easier with this tool :). Thanks so much for all your very well informed videos and patterns.
I love peony flower you did with these tool
Thank you for offer a set of these tools.

Thank you to give us a chance to win this set.

Very glad to hear you are feeling, and sounding, much better. I am a subscriber to both your blog and your YouTube station. It is difficult to choose a favorite video, but I did enjoy the simple punch flower- because it is just that - simple!
Keep doing what you are doing - thanks.
Thank you Valita. Boy, could I ever use those tools as I don't have any but 1 which is very tiny. I'm just starting in making my own flowers,so these would be a great help in my flower making.
I'm a follower as well a long time subscriber.
I do like the simple punch flower that you had done. Easy enough to make even for me.
ColleenB.

Hi Valita,
Just wanted to let you know that I have been checking out your blog and have really been impressed with your work. After I saw the whimsical Easter card with the egg flowers, I went out to look for the tool. Could not find it around here. Also I have been trying to find the Fancy that dies. Is that an Aussie company or do you think they are sold in the U.S.A.? I am also going to try my hand at the punch art tulips. Loved that video as well. Thanks so much for sharing the video!
Becky

Hi
Hi Valita...I'm so excited to have the opportunity to win this set of embossing tools. I live in Kelowna, BC, Canada and there isn't a craft store anywhere here that sells them. I am a blog subscriber and I would have to say that the peony flower was my favorite flower you made using this embossing tool. My other favorite kind of card you've shared is the lattice card. Every time I made one of these cards, the person receiving the card is amazed. Thank you for sharing your knowledge with all of us cardmakers. Sue

Hi Valita!!!!!! ( Everyone MUST be waiting & not want to be #1 in leaving a comment! :)) I am a NEW subscriber to your blog! I think the first posting I saw of yours was the March 27, 2012 posting with "A Simple Punch Flower!" I've looked back through your blog but that one flower was SO SIMPLE & SO BEAUTIFUL!!!!!!!!! It's my FAVORITE & the one that sticks out in my mind! I HAVE TO tell you Valita, I enjoy listening to you talk too!!!!!!! LOVE YOUR ACCENT!!!!!! :)You have inspired me to start making my own flowers for my cards! I've NEVER liked the cost of those pretties in the store anyway! :) THANKS Valita!
Hi Valita. Thanks for the chance to win this great set of tools! It costs the earth 'over here'!
I've been a subscriber to both your Youtube channel (AuntyViv) and also been a subscriber to your blog for AGES. (Just became a follower too to make sure all my bases were covered)! One of my favourite projects of yours using the ball tool, is the latest one, The Simple Flower. Love that flower and loved that embossing folder, which I managed to find eventually btw! Well, I'd better stop ramblong now and make room for someone else. lol xxx
I am a subscriber of your blog. I love watching all the flowers you make and it would be so awesome to win the tools you use to make these wonderful creations!
What a generous gift! But, I want you to know that should I win and it's too expensive to mail to the US, that's okay. Following your blog, which is what I do, has been a gift in itself. You have taught me a lot. I've purchased some of your fold patterns and have enjoyed them so much. I love that I can make them different sizes on the computer. Great fun. As for using the tool, I think I first noticed it when you got your new one and made the peonies (May 2011). I love the depth it gives to your flowers. Thanks for letting me tag a lot and learn from you. You've been a crafting and a spiritual inspiration.
I subscribe to your blog but once in a while watch your u-tube also. Would love to win your embossing tool set. I love all the flowers you've made using them. Can't pick a favorite as all are so beautiful. Have tried some. In fact just finished the simple punch art tulip card for Easter cards. Thanks for sharing your knowledge and art. Edna B.
OMG I just love all of your work.You are asking me to pick just one do you realize how hard that is. The only thing I can do is pick the last one I watched.A simple punch flower is the last one I watched but all of your work is first rate. I follow your blog,subscribed to youtube and get e-mail updates.Thank you for sharing with us.Peggy
I subscribe to both your blog and your YT channel. I enjoy seeing ANYthing you make but I truly love the flowers you make. You make it look sssssoooo easy. I am going to try my hand at making some flowers this weekend and I would really, really LOVE this set of tools! That would be so awesome to win them!!! Thanks for the chance and keep up the great work!! Can't wait to see what you make next!!
I loove your blog and am always amazed at the 'lifelike' flowers you create...One day I read your blog and you were so upset at what 'one' person said how u should be 'giving' your ideas away...."God is great, beer is good and people are crazy!(lol) As the song goes...you're a sweetie and a smart one at that! hugs from Kingston, Canada.
I get your posts via email and love seeing what you create. Have been looking for a set of those tools for ages so keeping my fingers crossed, love all the flowers you have made using them, would not be able to choose one. thanks for the chance and keep up the great work debbie018@hotmail.com

I have looked all over the internet to find the large tool that you have but, so far, haven't located one.
Yikes - it takes time for vidoes to load into my computer so while that was loading I made the comment not knowing I needed to let you know which project I liked - love the rings and something I could do.

I'd love to win those embossing tools, but I'd hate to have you ship them to the U.S. So, I'll just say thanks so much for the offer and if I win go with pick #2! I get your blog updates (and LOVE them!) and I also follow you on Pinterest. You are a true inspiration to me and I wish I had only half of your creative mind. You are a true artist.
I follow you everywhere - I love your blog and all you create. I love these rings that you have made they are fantastic. Kim Carter

While I have been a subscriber to your blog for a long time, I also sneak peaks at the videos on a regular basis.
One of my favorite posts using the embossing tool is the 'Pinecone Ornament Christmas card'.
Congratulations on achieving such a devoted following!
Hugs,
Trisha
I am registered for both your blog and your YouTube channel. I enjoy both very much, but especially your tutorial videos. You have the teaching knack, and your creations are inspiring.
My favorite (how can I pick a favorite?) I think maybe the simple punch flower. I like the way it sits on the card. It reminds me of my Mum's decoupage, and she took hours and hours to make her pictures the old fashioned way.
Good luck to you, and all your "listeners". Thank you for the chance to win.
I am a blog follower and I love your blog and projects. My favorite project with the tool is the simple flower that you did on March 27. Thank you so much for the chance to win this cool tool set.
I am a subscriber to your blog and loved your Christmas punch pine cones that you used your embossing tool on. thank you for great tutorials
I like the Australian Gum Flower but I think the Simple Punched Flower is the best. I have subscribed to your YOUTUBE Channel and I also and a follower of your blog. Love your tutorials!
The Australian Gum Flower is nice but I think I would make the Simple Punch Flower is more. I have subcribed to your YOUTUBE channel as well as your blog. Love your tutorials!
Oh Valita, what a great giveaway! I've been wanting some of these tools for awhile now. I've got a small roller ball, but in many videos I can see where the large ones really do a better job on so many things. I couldn't remember just one project off the top of my head, so I thought I'd check out some videos, and I saw the one for the gum nut tree blossom. Wow!! That is so gorgeous, and such an interesting plant. I've always wanted to visit Australia for so many reasons, and this just added another one! Congrats on so many followers. I've subbed to your blog for quite awhile. Thanks so much for all the inspiration you give!
I just love watching you make flowers! I believe the first I watched was the roses, but have watched so many since and your work fascinates me. I just love the sound of your voice as you teach. Your creativity is so amazing.
Thanks for letting me enter.
Annette here. Everything you do is just so fantastic. I follow you on your blog and your YouTube and an awed every time I see your work. I love all your flowers. Hard to pick but I'll say your calla lillies

I subscribe to your blog. Thanks so much for all the inspiration. I love all the flowers you create,but I think the hydrangea is one of my favorites. Thanks for the chance to win.
I follow on your Blog site and when I see you have a new blog I get so excited as I know it is going to be good! I like all of the 3 demensional flowers ...like the Lilly the Rose and the Peony are favorites. Unfortunately I can't just pick one. They all are so fantastic. I am so glad that you share your talent.
Valita you are such a generous and caring woman. I've been following you for a couple of years now, I started when I saw your video on the Dr. Who birthday card for your son. My favorite videos were on your lattice card fronts - I just loved the one your sent to your daughter in India! I even tried making my own from your vidoes (http://suescraftymess.blogspot.com/search/label/Lattice).My favorite video with these tools, at least similar ones, were your peonies! They are my favorite early summer (winter where you are) flower. I just want to say thank you for so much inspiration and so many, many beautiful ideas you turn into works of art. I wish you happiness and love. Sue
I have been following your blog by emails for a long time now and have totally enjoyed it. You have such great talent!!

Hi Valita, I have followed your blog for the last year or so...especially love learning about Australia. It's hard to say which project I liked the best. I love them all and have tried many. I, too, noticed the large ball embossing tool and wondered when I can find it. Can you post a link to purchase it? Thank you for all of the hard work you put into making this blog so special. love...
WOW! Thank you for an amazing opportunity to win these COOL tools! I am both a subscriber to your blog and your you tube (atouchof_sol). Congratulations on all your following...wishing you continued success and growth. My favorite...YIKES! Love the Peony was the first one I saw. They are all fabulous. Love the way you think outside of the box to repurpose the punches. Again Thank you!
Marisol
Hi Valita. I have been following your blog for a while now. You are puting pressure on me to decide which of your progjects I liked the best when using these embossing tools, that would be like asking a mother who her favourite child is ... my answer to you would be that I have liked everything you created so far ... I am never disappointed and always learn something. However, if I must pick one, then it would be the card you did with the pine cone. Thank you for this opportunity to win a great giveaway as I have been looking for these tools and have been unsucessful. Looking forward to your next project.

Congrats of your "following" achievements! I know every time I get and email from you there will be another great flower or creation that I think, why didn't I think of that idea. I have to say I have seen you use these tools on several projects, just can't pin point one particular one that I like best. I do love the Calla Lily that you create though. Fingers crossed, as I would love to win a set of these great tools. If not I will certainly be looking out for them in the cake decorating section of my local craft store.

Valita, your hydrangea was the first flower that captivated me and i have been an avid blog follower since then. You have so much talent and I am sincerely grateful that you are actually willing to share your work with everyone. You are truly an inspiration. Thank You
Dee
I HOPE you don't mind if we comment more than once!!!!!!!!!! I LOVE your flowers! I AM surprised that big paper crafting stores haven't come up with this tool or one like it! (As I said before, my FAVORITE project is March 27th, 2012; A Simple Punch Flower!) Keep showing us your BEAUTIFUL talent with your LOVELY accent!!!!!!!! :)
Oooops! Just a little add on to my last comment: I QUITE HAPPILY subscribe to your blog!!! :)
Hi!
I have subscribed to your blog for a while now and really enjoy your posts. It is really hard to pick one that has been a favorite but I really liked the Peony flower. I look forward to more posts and seeing your creations and learning more about your family!
Keep them coming!

Thanks a lot for sharing your talent. Alway thankful - Hugs, Archana
Hi Valita. I've been following your blog for a couple of years now, and am constantly amazed by your creativity. You are an inspiration, and it has been a privilege to share your journey. I clearly remember the first time I saw you use these tools on the Paeonie roses, and could see that they made a much better job than the plastic stylus. I have been looking out for them, but haven't found any anywhere. Thanks for offering them as a giveaway.
I love how you take a punch and use it for something differnet like a flower punch is a flower than it's a tuplit love that
I follow you on both

I subscribe to your blog. I love all your punch flowers and the innovation you bring to each project. I actually looked on line for the tools you are giving away and couldn't find them but I wasn't looking in the baking area!
I just discovered your blog and your videos. I follow both and would love to win the embossing tools. I liked the way you used it on the flower punch on your blog. I look forward to placing an order for your patterns. I made the egg card for my mother for Easter and it took me at least two hours. I had to create a pattern on Cricut first, tweak it, and then cut it. After two or so hours, trust me, your patterns are well worth the price! i finished the card. Everyone thought it was wonderful, but they hadn't seen yours. You are one talented lady. Keep the patterns and videos coming.
I have just discovered your blog and videos. Fabulous! I follow both. I can't wait to place an order for some patterns. I made the egg Easter card for my mother. It took me a couple of hours after cutting out a pattern from my Cricut and then tweaking it before I cut it out with the papers I wanted to use. Everyone thought it was wonderful; but they had not seen your version. What you charge for your patterns is certainly not enough. Some people don't understand the time involved. Well anyway, I hope I win this set of embossing tools. I liked how you used it on the flower punch. Really great idea. Glad you had a happy Easter. Keep the patterns and videos coming!
I am a follower on your blog. I just can't believe all the things you make out of punches. I really don't have a favorite thing. I just love getting the email that you have come up with something new. Thanks for great inspiration .
I love the tulip and birds card a few post below, but I have been a fan of your blog ever since I found your cute cupcake cards a long time ago! In fact, I bookmarked them. I am now a follower also so I don't miss a post!
Congrats on so many followers. Love seeing your creative projects!

While surfing YT videos, I've caught myself watching your videos more and more. I've subscribed to your site because I enjoy trying to duplicate what you create. Your extremely talented. Sometimes, I've watch one video several times to make sure that I create them just the way you have. I love the calla lilies, pansies, & peonies (done with that wonderful tool that is so hard to find.)
I love all the paper flowers. BTW, where did you get that tool?
I subscribe to both your You Tube updates and your blog. Love all the inspiration you give with every project you post. You are so very talented.
I follow your blog. I have enjoyed so many of your flower designs that you have done. You really have a eye for the flowers. You make it look so easy and the flowers looks so real. God bless the talent you have and for sharing with other.

Hello, Miss Valita, I discovered you on Youtube when looking for a way to use the heart punch I mistakenly ordered. There were the lovely flowers you made, and I love the dimension the tools give the petals. I've become a follower of your blog since and have learned so much -- thank you for your generosity of your knowledge and skills. You are also a talented teacher. That heart punch was the best mistake ever (like I've heard you say, an opportunity to learn something new.) Thank you for the opportunity to win these fabulous tools. My flowers would look even better using them!

Hi! Valita i really love your blog and the videos your making .I like the paper flowers you made with your owl punch its really unique then when i see the result i shocked because your work is like a real card selling on a bookstore really . so I saw this blog of subscriber giveaway and i would ask if the embosser are available right now i thought i want to have it to my next project about making an easy step paper flowers without using any scrapbook expensive gadgets because here in our place there are only limited material in scrap booking, i wait for years for the availability of embosser tools but the wait is not worth it, and i found out this tools are very expensive. i know tools in scrap-booking are for scrap booking but for me i use only improvising materials for scrap booking for my project at school so that i have big grades but i couldn't afford buying expensive materials , but that okay if there is no available of the embosser that's okay . i would just thank you , for teaching us what you have learn for scrap booking thanks for sharing your creative thoughts and ideas hope more blessing to come . and more videos you will show for us really really thanks
love your fan Charlemagne G. Gargalicano also known as Bordy
