THIS BLOG CANDY IS NOW CLOSED. Please check to see if you are a winner. If not, don't be sad, I've just posted a new Candy to enter !
This is sooo exciting - my very first, fortnightly BasicGrey Blog Candy and I've been itching to show it to you !
I have to give a huge, huge thank you to Heidi of Simon Says Stamp for giving me this opportunity to offer you all blog candy of BasicGrey products every fortnight alongside the BasicGrey Challenge Blog. Amber of SSS has been working so hard to pick the best of BasicGrey to send to you in the form of "kits" so that you can try a range of coordinated products all at the same time - just how fabby is that ? Want to see what you will be getting ? Well, here is this week's prize !!!
The next exciting piece of news is that you will be one of the first people to try the new BasicGrey papers that were launched at the recent CHA Show in Florida. The papers you are seeing in the photograph are called "Eeerie" and Amber has so generously given up a selection of these brand new papers that were given to her at the show by BasicGrey ! These papers haven't even been shipped to any stores yet (as far as I am aware) so you could be one of the first people to show these beauties off just by entering my blog candy draw !!! You will also receive the other items show in the photograph, it all comes as a kit.
How do you enter for this blog candy ? Well, there are no strict rules and the comments I make below are not compulsory to enter this draw but it would be nice if :
You could give your support to Simon Says Stamp, BasicGrey Challenges and myself by becoming a follower if you are not already.
Leave a comment under this post telling me why you love BasicGrey.

Ohhhhhhhhhh my!
ReplyDeleteI've only recently discovered Simon Says Stamp's challenge blog and tonight I've discovered yours through that one. I love challenge blogs so am now a follower of both.
Thank you for this scrummy chance to win these equally scrummy papers. I adore the look of this line so am placing a hex on all other entrants right here, right now. Just so you all know! :D Not much point anyone else entering really... move along people, move along, nothing to see here ;)
What do I love about Basic Grey? That they have totally surprised me with this line - it's not often I see a line and want it ALL. Maybe one or two sheets but not all of it. They've done it with Eerie though. Can't wait for it to hit the shops.
p.s meant to say, will be linking in my sidebar too.
ReplyDeleteWow Jo, delish candy!!
ReplyDeletewhy do I love Basic Grey? I find inspiration in great papers! Colour, texture, pattern, mood - with great looking paper, you end up with a great looking result. That's why I love BG!
You're linked on my sidebar - and I can't wait to take part in those challenges. I'm relatively new to challenges, but I LOVE 'em!

OmG thEsE neW pApeRs ArE jUst To dIE fOr.. i need them, i need them i need them, please put me in the draw.. as for your question.. its a bit of a silly one.. WHATs NOT TO LOVE about BG.. there are no bad points.. only that my purse is usually empty from buying!
ReplyDeleteoff now to spread the word and share the fun.. oh and not forgetting to follow & join in the challenges!
♥ Minxy ♥
Oh I am SOOO wanting these papers! Whats not to love about BG! I love the distressed look of the lines. They are my fav company I have never seen anything BG that I didn't love. thanks for the chance. I am already followers. And I have already entered both challenges this week!
ReplyDeleteWow - this looks fab Jo - I've just been having a peek at these over on the BG site!
ReplyDeleteWhy do I love BG? It's just so much more strokable than any others... ;)
Hugs x
I love bg's paper pads....great for card makers! Also love the matching embellishments and stamps! laura j
ReplyDeleteWOW!!!! All this stuff looks so fabulous. Can't wait to check it out at the stores. I grabbed the cutest little die cut stickers today from our local store. Can't wait to use them.
ReplyDeleteI love Basic Grey because I can even cross the various papers from different lines to match each other! If I don't have the green that matches Boxer, I can go to the Sublime papers and find a good green that will work! Plus, love all the coordinating brads, buttons, stickers and rub-ons. All my recent scrapbook pages are made with BG because they match all my pictures. And, the monthly newsletter gives me great ideas! Basic Grey, you're doing everything right! Miriam
ReplyDeleteYUMMY candy. Count me in. I follow and I do the challenges (sometimes) and I love basic grey - I was told early on that it's a great product for card markers!
ReplyDeleteBasic Gray has always had the best combination of papers and elements. It is the first and best company to come out with paper packs using designer paper. At least, it's the first I noticed.
ReplyDeleteTheir designs just don't get "old".

Oh!! These are awesome! I love Basic Grey paper...and now fabric-because they are so unique.
ReplyDeleteI have added a link to my sidebar and am a follower!
What is not to love with Basic Grey? The papers are magical. Always. Every line has personality and the colors, the patterns, the feel of the perfect paper...Wow! AND they come with the wide variety of coordinating items! Basic Grey got me started with scrapbooking so these papers will always have a special spot in my heart. (Found one BG paper in the book stor and HAD TO HAVE IT. Then I started looking around what to do with it... lol!).
ReplyDeletegood morning to u . What a candy blog to see ...From the day I knew basic grey I fell in love. this year i love the lemonade and i just order the marakkash collection.I become a follower to the blog and linked at my candy blog cubes at the sidebar
ReplyDeletehttp://www.tapuz.co.il/blog/userBlog.asp?FolderName=or63
This really is a fabby candy! I love Basic Grey because: 1. they always have an entire line that lends itself to masculine cards, 2. the distressed look is just plain awesome, and 3. there's always a style that SOMEONE can dig!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the chance to win!
I love everything about Basic Grey... the colours, the patterns and motifs, the feel and smell of the paper! The products never fail to excite and inspire me. When I'm working on a really special project, Basic Grey is always my first choice.
ReplyDeleteI was already a follower here and have added Simon Says Stamp! to my list.
Would someone please tell me how to add the blog candy to my blog and make it link?
Hi Jo,
ReplyDeleteI'm pretty new to the scrapbooking and card-making world having only been at it for just under a year now but I was very quick to fall in LOVE with Basic Grey and all they have to offer. I just love their variety, the fabulous colours and patterns that make each line unique. At 1st I fell for the glazed brads - to date I have maybe purchased almost 30 packages and not used up even one full package. Its almost as though they are too pretty to part with, ha, ha!
I also fall in love with the Pheobe paper line but it had already been out for so long that I have had a very hard time getting all of the papers in the line.
I am a grown adult woman who actually let out a squeal when I received the email update from my local store that the Lime Rickey & Wisteria lines had been received at the store back in May. My husband laughed as I grabbed my car keys and made way for the store. They had not even got the product out on the shelf yet as myself and another lady were given the go ahead to make our selections straight from the stacks of paper still wrapped in plastic.
I think this gives you a peek into my world and shows just how passionate I am about Basic Grey.
I am now a follower of your blog, SSS and I have also added your Blog Candy link to my side bar.
My blog -A Scrap Of Lisa-
is pretty new but I have been working at plugging away to add to it.
Cheers,
Lisa J
Basic Grey is my absolute favourite paper brand! (I've actually just come back from a BG shopping spree and I've been creating all afternoon!)
ReplyDeleteThe colours really do something for me, and this autumn kit in particular presses all the right buttons as autumn colours are my all-time favourites. Thank you for this delicious opportunity to win it.
I'm crossing everything and touching wood! Off to add the links now...
Thanks for your lovely message and instuctions Jo. It was really easy! Now I have your blog candy in my sidebar. :-)
ReplyDeleteWOW!!! These papers look awesome i love basic grey because the papers they make are really nice and it is not hard to find things that match. My nan told me how to make the bow but i made it lol.
ReplyDeleteWell Jo, what do i say, this candy is fab, about time we hadsome good Halloween papers!!! I love BG papers, love the neat little books that all co-ordinate, I have most of them, love the co-ordinating items to. I am already a follower of the challenge blogs they are fab, so glad the BG challenge is back, I am working on a card now that will be posted on Tuesday for BG. I will add the candy to my side bar.
ReplyDeleteHugs
Sarah
I love the quality of basic grey papers and I love the fact that everything matches perfectly.
ReplyDeleteWhere do I start...
ReplyDeleteThe papers are so easy to use and there is always a basic gray paper for just that special card you need to make, and you don't have to spend ages trying to match the ribbon, the brads etc they are all there matched up for you..
This is fantastic Candy... My fingers are crossed..

Amazing candy! I love BasicGrey is because they all co-ordinate so beautifully. I have linked to your candy in my sidebar and become a follower too! Will keep my fingers crossed for this one. Caroline x

ReplyDeleteSusan
Ooh!! Just realised I forgot to say what I love about Basic Grey... I love the collections of different items that co-ordinate with the papers, and all the papers co-ordinate with each other. Also, with each collection, you have paper designs to suit every taste and mood, from flowery and classic to grungy distressed looks. Love the frequency that new collections are available. The quality of the products, too. My favourites!
ReplyDeleteHugs,
Chris xx

ReplyDeleteI don't have any BG yet so can't comment on it but I do enter the Simon Says challenges as much as I can. I would love these papers, they appeal to my Goth side and having them would mean that I could take part in the BG challenges as well so I have put a link in my sidebar.
ReplyDeleteI totally ADORE all the BG papers and would be soooo.... happy to win this Candy :0) I have posted a link on my blog in the Yummy August Candy post. I joined as a follower and am now sitting here with fingers and toes crossed until 22nd, hoping I am the lucky winner :0)

I just love BG & their PP's! I am playing with the Lemonade line & just love it!!! Thanks for the chance to win!
ReplyDeleteWhat I love about Basic Gray is that it gives me the inspiration to create just by looking at what they have to offer!
ReplyDeleteWelcome back! It would be easier to say what I don't like about Basic Grey (nothing!). I just love their fresh touch on their DP. The colors, the flourishes, the attention to detail & more. LOVE IT!
ReplyDeleteI LOVE YOUR BLOG!! I just stumbled on it and love it. I love all the paper and the coordinating items!!!
ReplyDeleteThese new papers are GREAT! What I love about BG are the little 6x6 paper packs for such a steal!!!! I always grab them up even when I don't need any more paper (LOL).
ReplyDeleteI've updated all my followings to include your blog and Simon Says as well as adding your sweet blog candy to my candy jar on my side bar.

Wonderful chance!!
ReplyDeleteI'm playing too from Italy, I hope it's not a problem that readers can visit my blog only upon invitation (I had problems in the past), if you want I can send it too, I'd be very pleased to show you my creations.
However, I'm going to become a follower of "BasicGrey Challenges" and "Simon Says Stamp" and to add the logo in my blog, I hope I can be allowed (please, can you give me a sort of confirmation via email at theitalianvoice@yahoo.it ? Thank you so much for your patience!!).
I love BasicGrey because it allows people to give vent to their feelings simply matching bright happy colours in its designs, they can get a lot of combinations for each important moment of their life!
Ciao from here!

ReplyDeleteI just adore all the co-ordinating papers and embellishments that Basic Grey keeps releasing. Fantastic blog candy.
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely blog candy. I absolutely LOVE Basic Grey papers. I have almost every collection and it is my favorite brand due to the color coordination, the decorations fits so perfectly, and the versatility in the collections. Absolutely LOVE. I have added the picture to my sidebar, I am a follower of yours and the other blogs and I am now hopeing for some luck.

I love Basic Gray because their colors and designs are beautiful, and both trendy and timeless(yep that can be). I love that there are so many possibilities to mix and match collections - so many can be used with other ones! I love that!
ReplyDeleteOoh, I love Basic Grey, their co-ordinates are just brilliant, I've bough so many from the Porcelain set, just keep using 'em up :). Thank you for the chance to win - OMG those spiders webs are fab!
ReplyDeleteJust one thing though, if only they'd do an 8x8 pad too I would be in seventh heaven. Sometimes you need a bit more size than 6x6 and yet don't need 12x12...
I'm glad I've found your blog and you candy, I'm now following you, already had the others on my list.
Hugs

Hello Jo,
ReplyDeleteI love Basic Grey. The paper is great quality, always has great embellishments to go with each paper series. Basic Grey is always up with the trends and has different paper for all crafters to enjoy. No matter what project, layout you are doing Basic Grey has the paper and embellishments for it.
I love Basic Grey of many reasons; first I like to feel a thick paper between my fingers when it comes to scrapping - a paper that doesn't fold by itself because of it's thin-ness. Second it was one of the first papers i got to know when I started scrapping and the very papers I used at my second scrapbooking course. Since then I have collected and created Basic Grey.
ReplyDeleteThird I like the colours; blight and happy! And funny, like the Lime Rickey papers for example. I'd love to try your new ones!!
Charlotta
Fabulous candy!! Thanks so much for the chance to win! I have linked it up on my sidebar! :)
ReplyDeleteWonderful candy! I love Basic Grey for their papers, they have the most luscious patterned papers!
ReplyDeleteHi Jo,
ReplyDeletewhat a great candy1!!! Love to win it.
I love bg because of the papers, patterned papers and card stock :)
Greetings,tanja
Hi Jo,
ReplyDeleteDidn't want to come back to your post empty-handed, so I followed the link from my sidebar to your cancanny and brought you a link to my BG entry, and here's the latest SS entry. Yay participation!! I follow all the right blogs already, I see, so this (non-cumpolsory) checklist was an easy one!!
Basic Grey is hard to resist, each and every line they come out with has something for everyone, whether you like bold and bright or muted and subdued, there is something for every taste. I have started mixing some of the softer lines with bolder ones, I've found that a good way to actually USE some of the lovely papers that I buy and then admire them rather than use. The papers are a wonderful density, the coordinates (buttons, brads, fibres) are fantastic, the stamps are also great, BG is hard to top and definitely a favourite in my crafty book.
This give-away looks fantastic, and it is just too kind of you, Heidi and the SS crew to offer up such deliciousness. I hope that the winner, kinda hope it's me, okay, REALLY hope it's me, lol, will come back and show SSS how they utilize the products, that would be interesting. Thanks for the chance to win, and the fun opportunity to participate!!
Take Care,
Stephanne

What a great blog candy, oh I hope I can be the lucky winner of this!
ReplyDeleteWhat I love about Basic Grey...
They made it so easy for us, I don't have to search for coördinating papers, I just take all the papers, embellishments, ... from one collection and I have all I need to make a card, a scrapbookpage. I love it!
these look fab products. I love Basic grey packs. They coordinate so well with each other. Fingers crossed. Lx
ReplyDeleteHi Jo! Oooooo there is just sooo many reasons why I love basicgrey! I love that they're constantly bringing out new products and they are always so 'on trend'. I think there is a basicgrey paper pad for everyone and every type of card or project you could make-thats the best thing about them. Also they're very affordable with their 6 x 6 pads. I'm always checking out the basic grey website-I've had my eye on these halloween papers you're giving away as candy-halloween is my favourite time of year! Have also got my eye on the indian summer papers and nook and pantry-can't wait till they're available in the uk! I think even if you just only ever bought basicgrey paper pads and nothing else you'd still be sorted for variety! I am loving the lemonade pad right now and also procelain-even though its an older one! I'm already a follower of you and the simon blogs-just love the simon says challenges! I love the new look basicgrey challenge blog-it was a great sketch too! Am soooo keeping my inky fingers crossed for your candy hun! Added to my sidebar too:) Am sorry I've rambled so much-just couldn't stop myself! hehe. Hugs, Rowena
