I am SO excited :p to be starting this week's Favorites Thread - always thrilled to see and share such wonderful works of art! but today we are sharing some extra special news to recognize those special artists who are acknowledged in this thread this and each week..... (I'm feeling the love this week!)
As you know, this is the special place that we recognize the Fabulous Favorites - those hidden treasures - that you've discovered in the SCS Gallery each week. We encourage you to share those special eye-catching masterpieces so we can all enjoy some wonderful eye-candy! and give credit to those very special Crafters! So take a few appreciated minutes to link all of your special finds here to share with the rest of us! and in the process bring a smile to someone's day!
Our dedicated Team Members that will be helping with me with notifications this week are: Gail (GailNM), Mary (jandjccc), Shellie (shellied), and Judi (Crafts). THANK YOU Ladies!
SOOOO here's the special news -- to acknowledge those special artists who so willingly share their talents and are noted here.....[ think the Icing on the cake! think whipped cream on the ice cream! think the rubies that surround your diamonds! (okay a little carried away but I can dream! ) ]
-- we've got an new way that those who are listed here can now "brag" a little on their blogs about how nice someone was to them and how someone (that's you!) brought a special smile to their face! - for their generosity in sharing....... we now have Blog Badges available for your FAVORITES to download to their blogs. WOO HOO! (I'm excited and I don't have a blog!)
Special acknowledgements go out to Darlene Lyons for the suggestion, to Judi who brought it forward to SCS and to Lydia for creating the badges!
We encourage each of you special crafters to take advantage of these badges and download them to your blogs. Wear it proudly - as we appreciate your sharing your wonderful talents with the rest of us!
Very special THANK YOU's! too - to all the crafters who take the time to share their favorites....you bring smiles to the crafters faces as well as to ours when we get to see these art works! Your kindness is appreciated!
So grab your favorite drink, warm up to your computer (or other electronic wonder) and let's see what we've missed!
I can't wait!
Also, wanted to express one more word of THANKS! to all who recognize the efforts of the Notification Team! They are tireless in spreading the good word and their time and dedication is much appreciated! Thanks to Judi for coordinating this each week!
Since I've taken up so much time and space here -- I'll list my own Favorites in another posting.
Elaine
P.S. - FAVS don't forget to pick up your Blog Badge!

ONCE AGAIN I hit the wrong back button and erased all the favorites I had posted and so I start all over again...
How fun for all of you that have blogs can now get Blog Badges! We are so lucky on this site to have such dedicated people who donate thier precious time to bring sunshine into all our lives by letting us know that some one has put one of our cards in thier favorites. Thanks to all of you for the gift you give to us all.
There isn't a CAS favorites thread posted for this week yet so I will post here as we are having company and I won't be able to be on the computer tomorrow at all.
Thanks, Elaine, for kicking us off to a great start! And thanks for starting the ball rolling on the new blog badges and introducing them--great work!
My first list of favorites are found in the new Dirty Dozen gallery for April. If you are not a Fan Club member, you should become one (otherwise, you will be unable to view these beauties). Here they are:
The following are in the main gallery. They are especially wonderful to me because they were made in my honor for being the featured stamper last Sunday. Thank you so much, everyone! Here are a few of my favorites:
Thank you, Sylvia, for listing my screen door card as one of your favorites......and Judi, for letting me know. I truly appreciate both of you! Hugs, Sallie
Shellie, I am thrilled that my lighthouse card was one of your favorites since it was created in your honor. It was sent to a fellow SCSer who has a lighthouse as her avatar from time to time. Thank you. Hugs, Sallie
Thank you so much Elaine (ChaosMom) for favoriting my Celebrate Today card. I really appreciate you taking the time to mention it here! Makes for a wonderful start to my Sunday!
Thanks so much Shellie (shellied) for listing my card made 'specially for you here! I'm glad that you enjoyed it and I hope that you revelled in your week as Featured Stamper! I appreciate your shout-out~
I took a quick peek this morning before another busy day this week-end. I would like to thank Peggy and Sabrina for the shout outs of my cards. Makes my Sunday morning very special.
Thanks for the inspiration and Elaine for starting the thread today. The new badge is a great idea. Everyone have a good week. Now I'm off to see my granddaughter make her first communion
Thank you so very much Elaine for picking two of my designs again for this very special thread, I have now added my badge to my blog and will feel very PROUD to wear it...
Thank you to everyone else who visits my gallery too.
Shellie, It was really my honor to be inspired by your wonderful gallery. Thank you so much for mentioning my Spring Country Home this week. It means so much to me.
Thanks so much Brenda [tessaduck] for including my Just Believe Magical Masking Gray Sand in your favourites this week. I am honoured to be included with such wonderful talent. Thanks also to Gail [GailNM] for letting me know.
I haven't had much time to surf the gallery this week, but here are a few of my favourites:
ONCE AGAIN I hit the wrong back button and erased all the favorites I had posted and so I start all over again...
How frustrating for you, Peggy. I've read of others doing the same thing too.
The next time you accidentally hit the Back button, try immediately hitting the Forward button. Depending on your browser, that might resume your Reply to Thread window, exactly where you left it. If you're lucky, you won't lose anything you've already typed.
Another suggestion is to break down long link lists into multiple posts. We don't mind anyone posting several times in a row, and there's less chance of losing it all that way.
I'm glad you were determined enough to type it all again for us.
A big thanks to Tessaduck for picking my Out on the Prowl card and to GailNM for letting me know. How proud I am to be chosen and to get a gorgeous new blog badge! Wow! A lovely way to end the week. I'll be back soon with some of my favs for the week.
Linda(Holstein), thank you so much for your kind mention of two of my cards this week. Your words about my screen door card touched me......and I thought, isn't that what makes SCS the special place that it is??!! Sharing and inspiration for all of us. Thank you. And thank you, Gail, for notifying me of Linda's choices. Hugs, Sallie
The end of another beautiful weekend here! Feel like I missed some of the gallery during the week but will mention my favourites of those cards I did get to see and admire -
Thanks so much, Linda, for mentioning my card! It's always an honor to have a shout out! Hugs!

I have huge smile on my face - what a way to start/end the week - great boost to the ego just wish I had a blog so that I could proudly display my badge ;)
Thank you Linda (Holstein) for honoring my card Forget Me Not....I'm thrilled for the mention and to be in such artistic company as you and the other wonderful stampers on this site!
Sue(sue2, you are so kind to mention two of my cards among your favorites for this past week. I truly appreciate your mention and the kind comments you leave for me so often....it is encouraging. Thank you! Hugs, Sallie
Thank you so much Peggy (jasonw1) for giving my card "Mom" a shout out, I'm honored!! The blog badges are a fabulous addition to this weekly tradition, great idea gals!!
Thank you, ChaosMom, for mentioning my card: "Happy Day!" this week as your Favorites!! I am ashamed to admit, I haven't had time this week to look through the Gallery :(
I will get on it this week, though!
Thank you so much Holstein for chosing my card. That was very sweet. Have a great Sunday, and happy stamping to you!
