    first of all i almost always use flowers, no matter what brand of colour
    also you can almost immediatly tell it's my lo when you look at my titles, 99% of them is made by thickers
    i guess stamps are never far away when i make a lo or a card
    lately i use lots of bubble-foil, don't know the word in english, it's a material to protect breakable things while transporting and has all bubbles over it, love to stamp with it, check my blog about it
    and i simply can't work without my white pen
