Great job on the blog hits! It's because your blog rocks. My favorite song of the moment is The Long Way Around by The Dixie Chicks.
EEEk!! I've been eyeing these sets since the sneek peeks!
One of my favorite songs (I have many 'favorites') is by Bon Jovi. It's called 'Just Older'..."I like the bed I'm sleeping in, just like me it's broken in. It's not old...just older. Like a favorite pair of torn blue jeans, the skin I'm in is alright with me. It's not old...just older".
Thanks for a chance at a super great prize!!

Congrats-I really enjoy your blog. My favorite changes alot. Right now, I am loving David Cook's version of Hello that he did on American Idol. My very first favorite song was Smokey Robinson's One Heartbeat At a Time from the 80's when I was about 6 or 7.
Congrats Shannon! I love your blog and visit daily. I was wondering if you ever thought about going on the show "Don't Forget the Lyrics", I would love to see you on that show. I don't really have a favorite song, I'm an artist person, so I like anything by Michael Buble and Colbie Caillat at the moment. :) Thanks for the chance to win these great sets. ~Julie
Congrats on your blogaversary and 80,000 hits!

I can actually sing the entire song! :-)
Thanks for the opportunity! As you know, I am a HUGE Verve lover! :-)
Congratulations! I don't know if I have a favorite song but I certainly like to sing! My oldest daughter likes to write songs, perhaps ones of these days, one of her songs will be my favorite song. She doesn't always share them with me. Thanks for the chance to win some goodies. Sandra L-M
You have a great blog! I read it all the time. My favorite of all songs would be TESTIFY TO LOVE by Avalon. Thanks for the chance!
My current favorite is off the soundtrack of the movie Juno, called Loose Lips by Kimya Dawson.

Congrats on all the hits, Shannan...you have great talent and style! My favorite song is by Aerosmith..."Don't want to miss a thing".
Love you blog!! I just discovered it and just today I got in my first Verve Visual stamp sets!! Favorite song is hard...just about anything by Rascal Flatts - probably either Here or Take Me There.
Congrats on your blogaversary and all of those hits! My favorite song...goodness...I guess it would have to be Needs by Collective Soul. :)

Congrats on your blogaversary! I have so many "favorite" songs, to pick one would really depend on my mood. Buuuuut I guess since you had a Martina song as your title I will pick "In My Daughter's Eyes".....makes me teary every time..
Congrats on 80K! I love your work - and it's fun trying to figure out you blog title songs! My favorite song is Every Breath you Take by The Police.

I don't know that I have a favorite song--it changes daily :) but one I have really likely for a while now is The Luckiest by Ben Folds.
Thank you for a chance to win some awesome candy!!
Happy Blogaversary Shannan! Thanks for the chance to win those great sets!! :) I think I'd have to say Great is They Faithfulness. I used to sing it to my first daughter when I'd nurse her - it's kind of a special song for us! :)
Well, I've been introduced to a whole lotta new songs reading your blog! lol
The song that stops me in my tracks when I hear it is Silhouette
by Kenny G.
Congratulations on your two big milestones! :) May you blog happily for many more years.
I love the cards you create. They are absolutely gorgeous! I would say my favorite song is What a Wonderful World by Louis Armstrong. Love that song! Thanks for the chance to win some candy!!!
I am not old, but this song will make me sound old, I LOVE the song, "I Can't Help Falling In Love With you". I think Elvis was the first to sing it.
Thanks.
Denise G
Believe it or not, that is a hard question to answer. I would have to say my current favorite song is "Bleeding Love"
Great blog candy. You have a great blog - thanks for sharing and inspiring. I don't think I can pick my favorite song, but my current most listened to is In Christ Alone.
I love reading your blog to see what sond title you have entered each day. You're question is HARD, I listen to all types of music and have tons of songs I love to listen to. My list could go on for days, but I stick to your question and only list 1. I am a huge Sarah McLachlan fan and love pretty much anything she has done. Song for a Winters Night is one of my all time faves!
What a tough question! One of my all-time favorites that always makes me sing out loud (and that's not easy to do, as I know what kind of singer I am!) is I Am a Rock by Simon & Garfunkel.
Gosh...you had me stumped on that post title today! My fav song is "In Your Eyes" by Peter Gabriel. It was my wedding song (that, and I cannot get the idea of John Cusack and his ghetto blaster out of my head!).
Thanks to you and Julee for the fun candy!
Well, Happy Blogoversary! Wow that's a lot of hits! I love your work! I lurk around often! tehehe. What awesome candy. Thanks for the chance!
I hit enter before I told you my favorite song. It's When you Love Someone by Bryan Adams. He's my all time favorite man!
What great candy! Thanks for the opportunity! My favorite song right now is Jesus Hurry and here is a YouTube video...
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cQL8jf20pCY
I can't really say that I have a favorite song...sorry! BUT -- I LOVE anything by Rascal Flatts! Those boys can sing! Thanks for the chance! Love these stamps!!! Lisa K in TX
Wow...80,000 congrats!! My fav song...that's a tough one...I guess it would be Sweet Home Alabama. And I live in California!
Congratulations, what a milestone! I am a daily reader, and I LOVE your blog. Thanks for sharing your creativity with us. One of my favorite songs is "In Your Eyes" by Peter Gabriel.
pick me!! pick me!!
congrats girlie!!!
My favorite song is Bleeding Love by Leona Lewis. Happy Anniversary and thanks for celebrating with us!
Julee sent me over here. I just had to check it out. Congratulations on your blogaversary and 80K.
My favorite song right now would either have to be James Otto "Just got started loving you" or Tim McGraw "Suspicions"
Happy Blogoversary and congrats on the numbers of hits...makes my almost 9k look pretty pathetic! Favorite song is a tough one...it changes all of the time, but right now I would say I would say "Black Horse and a Cherry Tree" by KT Tungstall.
Shut Up! What an awesome opportunity!
Thanks to you AND Julee.
My favorite song huh? Has to be the William Tell Overature of 1812...I know...I know...not really a radio song...but I played in a symphony for years and that was always my fav!
My all time favorite song is Brown Eyed Girl by Van Morrison. Love it!
Thanks for the chance to win. :)

Wow, congrats on all the hits and your blogaversary. I don't know what to pick for a fave song. It changes daily. Today is Danity Kane's Damaaged. My daughter loves to sing it and there fore I love it to. (She's only 2 and it's adorable)
I just recently found Mindy Smith. She did a cover of Dolly Parton's Jolene a couple of years ago and I loved it. Well when American Idol had the Dolly week I remembered that and went looking for her CD. She has a few great songs on it. One is called "Come to Jesus". I'm not what you would call a real religous person, and I don't listen to Christian music, but she has some beautiful songs that happen to mention God and Jesus and I like them.
Congrats on your hits!
One of my favorite songs is Gravity by John Mayer, I never get tired of it.
CONGRATS!!!!
LOVE YOUR BLOG!!
KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK!!!
WOW! 80,000 hits -Impressive! I would be hard pressed to have just ONE favorite song, but I'll choose "How Great Thou Art"
Thank you for sharing your talent with us!
It has to be a Celine Dion one - The Power of Love is one of my favourites but she does so many good ones.
Whoa, 80,000 hits! Congrats! My favorite song is Amazing Grace.
I love any song that my 2 or 4 year old boys are singing with their sweet little voices. Their current favorites are "Old MacDonald" and "Oh Susannah!"
-Krissy
One song?!? Choose one? Man, talk about a tough question, g/friend!!
Right now, I'm playing the Wild Hope CD ... so, I guess I'll choose "Gardenia" ... this changes daily ... or more often, LOL!
Congrats on the blog-stone!!
~Big Hugs, Deb
Yay for you! My favorite song...I always go back to "Hold Me Jesus" by Rich Mullins...it's an oldie...but the line that always gets me..."I'd rather fight You for something I don't really want than take what You give that I need" always nails me.
Dina
Congratulations on your blog accomplishment! My favorite song is "In My daughter's Eyes"
My favorite song is "The Greatest Love of All" by Whitney Houston.
Congrats on 80,000 hits and your blogaversarry. I have to give you background info on my favorite song. I was born in 1976, so by the late 70's early 80's disco was still kind of in. Michael Jackson was huge! My first 8 track and my first tape was the Off the Wall album. {first vinyl album was the jackson 5} I love equally "Don't stop 'til you get enough" and "Rock with you" by Micheal Jackson. I know he is a wierdo now, but those are my favorites.
...I wanna rock with you {all night} dance you into day {sunlight} I wanna rock with you {all night} We're gonna rock the night away...
Congratulations on your blog! I discovered it today by visiting the gallery of SCS (again) and by going to one blog and then another and so on.....I found you! Awesome site! Well the lyric/title is awesome. It makes me think of how I feel when I am with my 5 year old (sans the hardwood floor)! "Blessed" by MM is not my favorite song though. I have too many favorites but to pick one right now I'll say "Can't You Hear Me Knocking" by the Rolling Stones!
Hmmm, let's see, my favorite song (right now) is A Paler Shade of White (?) sung by Sarah Brightman.
Awesome candy, thanks for the chance to win, or should I thank Julee, lol?
Hi. Love your blog. I like "Apologize" by OneRepublic.
Thanks for the chance to win the blog candy.

I love all music but I think my favorite all time song is still Canon in D by Pacelbel...more modern though my new fave is 1234 by Feist. What a great giveaway!
sharlacarbine at gmail dot com
Who wouldn't want a chance at candy?? Congrats on one year and 80000!! I love your daily blog entry titles - you get me thinking about the song - well, if I can figure it out anyway. I'm not nearly that good at lyrics. But my favorite song is currently Bless the Broken Road. My DS sang it for a solo at his HS concert this spring. Love the song, love that boy even more.
turkey1969 @ yahoo . com
Congrats! Thats really wonderful! I love the blog candy. Pick me, pick me! :)
Boys of Summer - Don Henley
thanks for the blog candy!
Congrats girlie!!! I've been a loyal blog reader from way back when and I'm so happy that you've experienced the success that you have. I truly enjoy your cards and little bits of your life. Keep it up and I'll keep visiting.
Crap, I forgot to tell you my favorite song of the moment :-)
I have to say it's Shut Up Drive by Rihanna :-) I love it cuz my kids can't say shut up because it's a bad word and we do take frequent weekend road trips and dh won't "let" me drive :-)
Wow Congrats! Just found your awesome blog. I'll be back. :) What yummy candy! hummm favorite song....Right now is Put Your Records On by Corinne Bailey Rae and The Way I Am by Ingrid Michaelson :)
My favorite song always changes with my mood. :) Right now, I am always turning it up if Rascal Flatts - Everyday (You Save my Life) comes on the radio.
Congratulations! You really do have a great blog and I love reading your song lyrics each day to see if I know the song. I love too many songs to have a real favorite, but one that comes to mind is I Can Only Imagine.
Congrats on your hits!!! Your picking on my daughter's 13th birthday....would make a really nice day for me....her! I am totally loving the new song by Trace Adkins....but of course can't remember the name of it at the moment....
My fav song right now is Last Dollar (Fly Away) by Tim McGraw. My 3yo and I sing it together and it's almost as cute to hear him sing it, as it is to hear McGraw's girls' singing at the end of that song! THanks for the chance at some delicious blog candy and congrats on your blog hits!!
woo hoo, blog candy, congrats on your hits and anniversary. My favourite song is by Sarah Mclachlan- Fallen
Happy blogaversary!! Time does pass by fast -- your site is an inspiration. The stamps sets you are giving away are soooo kool! :-) I think right now my favorite song is "Live Like You Were Dying" by Tim McGraw. Have a fantastic week!
WOW! Both of these sets are on my wish list! Just in time for Father's Day and Graduation projects. I love reading your blog entries - they are always so positive and cheery. Here's to another 80,000 -- may they come twice as quick as the first 80,000! CHEERS!
Awesome sets! Thanks for offering them. Though I listen to lots of songs, my favorite remains "Godspeed" by the Dixie Chicks. It became the lullaby that I sing to my son. He is now 7 and we sing it together. Hopefully, when he gets older he will play it at his wedding!
Congrats on the very successful blog!
Michele
Happy Blogaversary, and congrats on all the hits! Thanks for the generous giveaway!! My favorite song right now is "Say It Again" by Marie Digby.
Congrats! My song is "I can only imagine" Don't know who sings it , but when it's on the radio, I turn it way up and just get lost in it.
Thanks for a chance to win some cool stamps.
Liz
Congrats on the blogaversary! I'm not sure how y'all do it, I can barely have enuff time to stamp! but thanks for doin it!
whoops-my fave song is anything by Van Morrison or Jimmy Buffett
wow.....fav song, eh????.....I guess I really don't have one....I just love music in general....but I will tell you that the old song "High Hopes' has been rattling around in my brain lately
Hi Shannan!
What a fun giveaway! I've so been enjoying your blog titles, chatting and great cards! Thanks for the chance to win. My favorite song is probably "This Could be the Dawning of that Day" written by Bill and Gloria Gaither and sung by Signature Sound. Good old heartwarming Southern Gospel music!
Congrats on all the 2 milestones :-)
My favourite at the moment is from a dutchc band called Leaf, "New Song"
Regards, Lizzy
Gosh, I like so many songs. But my all-time favorite has to be the song that my Grandma used to sing to me when I would visit the farm. "You are my Sunshine". My grandma couldn't carry a tune in a bucket, but she was always happy and would sing, especially when doing the dishes. She would put me on a chair next to her at the sink and sing while we did dishes. Then when I had my children I would always sing this song, too. There you have it. Thanks for the chance to win some great stamps.
Congrats on the hits, and thanks for the chance to win. I have 2 faves actually both by Casting Crowns, a contemporary Christian band. They are "Praise You In This Storm" and "East To West". Very encouraging music!
That is too funny, I just did the same thing for my blog candy!!(Fav and least fav song) I would have to say my favorite song is I Can Only Imagine by Mercy Me, that and right now I am obsessed with Jordin Sparks and Chris Brown's No Air.
Well someday I hope to set up my own blog but right now I am having too much fun looking at everyone elses!
mamascollections@aol.com

Thanks for this opportunity!!!
Shannan,
Congrats to you. I have recently started visiting your blog linked from Blogabella, and I love your vivid colors and your design style. It has become one that I check everyday I am on the computer and I have even gone a bit into the archives. Fabulous job. My favorite song recently is one my daughter wrote a few years ago when she was 9 called "I'll Shine on You" but my all time favorite song is "My Girl" by the Temptations, cause my daddy used to sing it to me and although I don't remember him doing that specifically, I have always loved the idea of him doing that. Congrats again and I'll be back.
Congrats on your Blogaversary! I love your Blog and Love your titles each day with song lyrics!
One of my favorite songs at the moment is Chris Tomlins "Amazing Grace".
Congrats on all your hits Shannan! Love your blog - thanks for the chance to win! Right now I'm on a U2 kick - both One and Beautiful Day!
