I got Holly's list with two birthdays on it for April - Anne Nakagawa and

Karen Chan. Anyone else born this month, please send me your name,

address

and the date since I'm going to try to get cards out in a timely way

(last

month I got ahead for a while, but the end of the month folks got belated

wishes...).



Thanks,

Judi K

Subject: RST! TOTW: Spring Colours

Message-ID:



Well lets see, we did have a few days of sort of sunshine then the rain

hit

again, then a tease of sunshine then more rain. Repeat as necessary.

But we do have flowers:

Yellow and orange for the daffodils.

White for the paper whites (look like daffodils but are in bride's

white).

Mauve for the crocuses with their little white or yellow centers.

Spring Pansies of many colours with their tiny purple or black faces

lifting up

towards the sun.

Pink for the Japanese Cherry trees that are in the graveyard right behind

me.

Brown and gray for the squirrels who are doing high wire acts on the

electrical

wires while getting their matchmaker to find them a mate.

Robin red breasts, brown sparrows, black crows, light brown starlings and

the

emerald green grass with the dew on it in the morning (if it's raining

very wet

dew)

You add to that the laughter of the children as they see the wonder of

Spring,

the renewal of life and you have a great card.

>

Give me a sense of humor Lord,

Give me the grace to see a joke,

To get some humor out of life

And pass it on to other folk!

Subject: RST! SOTM package

Message-ID:



I finally got to dive in and open it all. Jamie, you are amazing for

individually wrapping everything! And thank you to all the people who

donated!



Get a cup of coffee, this is going to be a long post. Inside was a pair

of

deckle scissors, a huge array of fibers, a big roll of cork, a big bag of

UM

(all different styles, shapes and sizes), a set of Valentines stamps with

an

ink pad, some bottle caps, some cute scrapbooking page tiles, 2 beautiful

pins, an embroidered iron on patch, a big craft box of all different

kinds of

confetti, a 1997 issue of RSM (which, amazingly, I didn't have), 16

mounted

stamps, a plate of UMs, a big wedding cake UM, 2 twinkling H2O (which I

have been

dying to try), a Stampability Folk Art kit that has a booklet and 3

stamps

(believe me my house needs it), a Joanne's idea book & a catalog of UM

from a

vendor. Lots of RST vendor names were noticed. And I know a lot of

individuals contributed. Thank you all! I can't wait to get stamping

away! AmyF

Subject: RST! Tan: Terri Schiavo

Message-ID:



I happen to live very near Woodside Hospice, where Terri lived her final

years. It has broken my heart to see what I think has been despicable

behavior by people on BOTH sides of this tragedy. Instead of recognizing

the tragedy of a young woman who was a REAL person, with a REAL life

before she fell ill, both sides were so busy making her a poster girl for

their agenda, the person Terri was seems to have gotten lost in all the

shouting.



This has been in our local news for years now, since the first lawsuits

were filed, and it has always been a matter of debate for well-

intentioned people on both sides. But once the national media got

involved, it became a circus of the worst sort. For an issue that

certainly has many more shades of gray than most, it became an ugly,

polarizing, pick-your-side, black or white argument, and once again, the

person Terri was became nothing more than a charactiture. It should have

been about dignity, but clearly Terri was robbed of that the minute the

news trucks camped on the lawn, and the network news organizations

smelled ratings. Add protestors looking for their own personal fifteen

minutes of fame, and it becomes even less about a family tragedy, and a

young woman for whom there were no easy answers. The most horrifying

moment for me yesterday occured when the news showed the white van

carrying Terri's body on its way to the Medical Examiner's office. There

was no way to

deflect comparisons to the infamous white Bronco chase of ten years ago.



And then, finally, gratefully, this piece appeared in our local paper

this morning. I'd ask you to read it, and spend a moment thinking about

Terri, and who she really was. No matter how you feel about the

questions her case bring up on right to die issues, from all accounts,

she was a lovely, sweet woman, and her REAL life deserves a moment of

honor.

Message-ID:



Oh My Gosh! I can't begin to tell you how surprised I was today to find

a package in my mailbox! First I noticed the package was for me! Then

the return address was from Indiana, but it was from Jenny Neary! I

couldn't believe that Jenny had sent me something the that dear, dear

lady did. What did she send me, you ask? Jenny sent me the one the only

the longed for Ribbon Weave punch! Not only the punch but two cute

keychains! One is a plush kangaroo that has I love (a heart) Australia

on it and the other a metal charm of a koala bear on it. Plus she

included a cool postcard of Australia! Thank you so much Jenny. You are

so thoughtful and so generous too! Thank you again and again. I am so

exited over here, I can't wait for my hubby to get home from work so I

can tell him!

Subject: RST! Topic of the Week

Message-ID:



TOPIC OF THE WEEK:

How do you use travel-related embellishments, paprs, and stamps in your

cards

and other projects?



I was looking at the Artist Trading Cards I made for Scrap & Stamp Arts

that

were recently returned, and thought about the stickers of the Eiffel

Tower,

Big Ben and leaning tower of Pisa that are on them... I used them

because part

of the challenge I gave myself when starting the project was to use

stickers

from a single sheet so that readers could do a whole lot of projects

without a

whole lot of expense - and that sheet just happened to have Asian

calligraphy,

Victorian and Asian children's faces, English words, and travel images.

So I

used them for a reason that had to do with design, not because I've been

to

that part of Italy or because I'm planning a trip to Paris.



I pull the postage stamps off envelopes that come from near and far,

places

I've seen and those I'll never get to. I think of them as colorful

little

shapes or pieces of art more than "I wish I could get to Hong Kong."

Though I

must admit when Kangaroo stamps arrive from Jenny I think that I should

pull my

energy together, save up and try to get to Australia at some point in my

life.

Then I remember how tired I get from four days in Chicago so I go back

downstairs and stamp a card or two...



Actually, I've had a great time using placemats that have maps on them

for

envelopes (little towns in Vermont, diners along the road...), and those

always

hold really great memories - in fact, I must have made two dozen and only

this

week found and started to use them...which must mean I want to get to

Vermont

this summer so I can get some more!

Subject: RST! TAN: Bless Her heart

Message-ID:







Someone once noted that a Southerner can get away with the most awful

kind

of insult just as long as it's prefaced with the words, "Bless her heart"

or

"Bless his heart." As in, "Bless his heart, if they put his brain on the

head of a pin, it'd roll around like a BB on a 6-lane highway."





I was thinking about this the other day when a friend was telling about

her

new transplanted northern friend who was upset because her toddler is

just

beginning to talk and he has a southern accent. My friend, who is very

kind

and, bless her heart, cannot do a thing about those thighs of hers, was

justifiably miffed about this. After all, this woman had CHOSEN to move

to

the South a couple of years ago. Can you believe it?" said her

friend, "A child of mine is going to be "taaaallllkkin liiiike

thiiiissss."

Now, don't get me wrong. Some of my dearest friends are from the North,

bless their hearts. I welcome their perspective, their friendships, and

their recipes for authentic Northern Italian food. I've even gotten past

their endless complaints that you can't find good bread down here. And

the

heathens, bless their hearts, don't like cornbread!



We've already lost too much. I was raised to say swanee," not swear, but

you

hardly ever hear anyone say that anymore, I swanee you don't.

And I've caught myself thinking twice before saying something is "right

much," "right close," or "right good" because non-natives think this is

right funny indeed.



I have a friend from Bawston who thinks it's hilarious when I say I've

got

to "carry" my daughter to the doctor or "cut off" the light. She also

gets a

giggle every time I am "fixin'" to do something. And, bless their hearts,

they don't even know where "over yonder" is, or what "I reckon" means!



My personal favorite was my aunt, saying, "Bless her heart, she can't

help

being ugly, but she could've stayed home."



Southern girls know bad manners when they see them:

1 Drinking straight out of a can.

2. Not sending thank you notes.

3. Velvet after February.

4. White shoes before Memorial Day or after Labor Day



Southern girls always say:

1. "Yes, ma'am."

2. "Yes, sir."



Southern girls have a distinct way with fond expressions:

1. "Y'all come back now, ya heaah."

2. "Well, bless your heart."

3. "Drop by when you can."

4. "How's your mama?"

5. "Love your hair."



Southern girls know their three R's:

1. Rich

2. Richer

3. Richest



Southern girls know everybody's first name:

1. Honey

2. Darlin'

3. Shugah



Southern girls know the movies that speak to their hearts:

1. "Gone With the Wind"

2. "Fried Green Tomatoes"

3. "Driving Miss Daisy"

4. "Steel Magnolias"



Southern girls know their cities dripping with Southern charm:

1. Hotlanta or Adlanna (Atlanta as outsiders say)

2. Richmon

3. Challston

4. S'vannah

5. Birminham

6. Nawlins'

7. Oh! and that city in Alabama? It's pronounced MUNTGUMRY!



Southern girls know the three deadly sins:

1. Bad hair

2. Bad manners

3. Bad blind dates



G.R.I.T.S. = Girls Raised in The South!



Now you run along, Shugah, and send this to someone else Raised In The

South, i.e., Southern Belles, or ANY females aspiring to be GRITS. Even

the

northern ones, "Bless Their Hearts."



That Reminds me. I have a rubber stamp that says "Just because your

children

were born in the South does not make them Southerners. After all, if a

cat

had kittens in the oven, that wouldn't make them biscuits."

Subject: RST! Vamp Stamp News - samples on line

Message-ID:



Nancie Waterman, the editor/publisher/owner/amazing woman who

singlehandedly

does Vamp Stamp News, sent me a link to a new feature of her web site and

I

think it's worth mentioning here.



http://www.vampstampnews.com/samples.html



This will take you to samples from the magazine to give a free taste of

the

publication, get a sense of it so you can decide whether to submit a

project or

report from a convention, buy a subscription or think about buying back

issues. It also includes information about how to get published - right

now there

is a Hand-Dyed Paper Challenge.



It's fun to see how current some of the articles are from years past. It

might be a technique you already know and can revisit in light of new

interests

and supplies or a technique you didn't read about at the time.



Nancie isn't making the publication an on-line magazine. The way she

puts

it, she thinks of the samples as being more like looking at a magazine

when you

visit a friend's house. You leave the magazine there, and when you go

home

you decide whether to start buying it at a store or whether to get your

own

subscription.

Subject: RST! O/T: Operation Second Sight

Message-ID:





On one of the online groups I belong a lady named Jane is working and

living in

Thailand on a project that helps poor people get eye glasses. So here is

what I

want to do gather as many old eye glasses, eye glass cases etc. and mail

them to

Jane for the project. I think it would be best if I sent the glasses as

only one

parcel instead of every one mailing the glasses directly as the mail is

not

picked up every day and involves a drive into the city to retrieve.

I'm calling the project from my end "Operation Second Sight" as if you

can not

see without a pair of glasses then finally getting glasses is like

getting a

second sight.

Any one want to help?

Yes I know several other companies do the same sort of thing but this

town is

not on their list and they need out help.

Mail the glasses to me. ~0-0~

Barbara Gibson

#31 - 449 East 44th Avenue

Vancouver, B.C. Canada V5W1W2

I am very sincere about doing this folks as being a person who wears

glasses

almost all my life I know what it is like not being able to see properly

without

them.

Give me a sense of humor Lord,

Give me the grace to see a joke,

To get some humor out of life

And pass it on to other folk!

Message-ID:



I'm in tears... Spuds, my favorite and cuddliest Bichon just died without

any warning... he was fine when we went in the van to the pharmacy and

bank and when I got back, he didn't get out of the van so I picked him up

and laid him down and he was dead. He was everyone's favorite and one of

my two youngest... I'd expected him and his sister to be with me the

longest. He always slept under the covers with me and everyone petted

when they came in the store. When he had his last checkup, the vet said

he had a heart murmur so I guess it must have been his heart... there's

no point in my spending money I don't have on an autopsy to find out what

happened.



I had put on my Rubber RoundUp ad in their booklet "Five Bichon Frises on

site... no waiting for petting"... now it will be only four. I still

can't believe it and can't stop crying.

Stampo I am so sorry. I know that doesn't change things but it is nice

to know that others understand your pain. That really was sudden. Maybe

you don't have to pay for an autopsy but could just call your regular vet

and ask what they think might have been the cause or if they think the

heart murmur could have preceeded this.

Subject: RST! Topic of the Week - volunteer needed

Message-ID:



Judith took over Topic of the Week when my schedule changed and I needed

a

break. I've taken it back while she's battling the cancer cells, but I

wonder

if there is someone else who'd be able to take over for a few months,

April

through July, and then I'll step back in toward the end of the summer if

the new

person needs a break.



It feels to me like my projects are sounding familiar and I think RST

deserves a fresh voice, plus my schedule has changed yet again since I'm

about to

start writing a book of crochet patterns.



Help, please. Perhaps two people would want to alternate if there isn't

one

person who wants to take on the task.



I'm willing to do the topic for a couple more weeks and I hope there's

someone else who can take over, but if there is not, then I'm still going

to have to

retire for a while and I'll assume that topics will self-start the way

other

threads always do, without an official Topic of the Week...



Hard to believe it's been about five years...I think it was one of the

first

things I started doing when I joined.

Subject: RST! RAKs received.

Message-ID:



The last couple of days I have been finding wonderful cards from my RST

friends.

I have uploaded cards from Toni Presto, Holly Young and Kat Wratni. All

different and all charming. How nice to receive the creative ventures

from

friends! I have included them on my webshots site listed below.

I also received a beautiful little handmade book. I apologize that I am

not

sure whether it came from Holly or Toni, as I opened the mail in the car

and

it slid to the floor before I got home.

I am thinking it came from Toni because of what she wrote inside but I

can't

be sure. She also sent a wonderful little calendar with a magnetic back.

These come in sooo handy.



So thank you ladies. It was funny, but I sent out an envelope to Holly

today too. Kat and Toni I will be sending you envelopes soon also.

Thanks for blessing my heart with the wonderful eye candy.

Hi Becky,



I don't know of a source, but they should be easy enough to make on your

own since they're basically just a half-page size.



Consider this: Cut the large pieces out with a straight cutter, then use

a

template made out of cardboard (or your template material of choice) so

you know where to cut the diagonal corners and where to punch the hole.

Add paper hole reinforcements around the hole and some string or fiber,

and you should be good to go.



Given the size you want, I don't think you need to spend the $$ to buy a

template, and if you use existing cardstock, you can make them any color

you want.



HTH!



Karen :)

I was looking at Lowe's this morning for a light that would be bright

my stamps & more! wooohooo!!!)

I have an old kitchen table that I'm using to stamp on. The only light is

overhead & two windows that are far apart from each other. I saw a table

top halogen which was pretty bright, but it's dark in that area of Lowe's

on purpose.



Any input on lighting? table top, track, etc???

I'm not sure what kind of tags you are looking for, but couldn't you

just make them yourself??? Cut the paper to size and then trim the top

edges to look like tags. Punch the hole and you could even add those

round circles with the hole in the center(can't remember the name) that

you could color any color you wanted????? Just a thought....

Message-ID:



At this time, I want to thank all of you who have taken the time and

trouble

to send me e-mails over the past 12 months. Thank you for making me feel

safe, secure, blessed, and wealthy.



Because of your concern I no longer drink Coca Cola because it can remove

toilet stains.



I no longer drink Pepsi or Dr Pepper since the people who make these

products are atheists who refuse to put "Under God" on their cans.



I no longer drink anything out of a can because I will get sick from the

rat

feces and urine.



I no longer use Saran wrap in the microwave because it causes cancer.



I no longer check the coin return on pay phones because I could be

pricked

with a needle infected with AIDS.



I no longer use cancer-causing deodorants even though I smell like a

water

buffalo on a hot day.



I no longer go to shopping malls because someone will drug me with a

perfume

sample and rob me.



I no longer receive packages from UPS or FedEx since they are actually Al

Qaeda in disguise.



I no longer shop at Target since they are French and don't support our

American troops or the Salvation Army.



I no longer answer the phone because someone will ask me to dial a number

for which I will get a phone bill with calls to Jamaica, Uganda,

Singapore,

and Uzbekistan.



I no longer eat pre-packaged foods because the estrogens they contain

will

turn me gay.



I no longer eat KFC because their chickens are actually horrible mutant

freaks with no eyes or feathers.



I no longer date the opposite sex because they will take my kidneys and

leave me taking a nap in a bathtub full of ice.



I no longer have any sneakers --but that will change once I receive my

free

replacement pair from Nike.



I no longer buy expensive cookies from Neiman Marcus since I now have

their

recipe.



I no longer worry about my soul because I have 363,214 angels looking out

for me and St. Theresa's novena has granted my every wish.



Thanks to you, I have learned that God only answers my prayers if I

forward

an email to seven of my friends and make a wish within five minutes. (I

don't remember that in the Bible.)



I no longer have any savings because I gave it to a sick girl who is

about

to die in the hospital (for the 1,387,258th time).



I no longer have any money at all, but that will change once I receive

the

$15,000 that Microsoft and AOL are sending me for participating in their

special e-mail program. Yes, I want to thank all of you soooo much for

looking out for me that I will now return the favor!



If you don't send this e-mail to at least 144,000 people in the next 70

minutes, a large dove with diarrhea will land on your head at 5:00 PM

(CST)

this afternoon and the fleas from 12 camels will infest your back,

causing

you to grow a hairy hump. I know this will occur because it actually

happened to a friend of my next door neighbor's ex-mother-in-law's second

husband's cousin's beautician! Honest!

Message-ID:



A teacher was upset that one little boy was swearing in class. "Todd,"

she

said, "you shouldn't use that kind of language. Where did you hear those

words?"



"My daddy says that," Todd replied.



"Well, that doesn't matter," the teacher explained. "I don't want to

hear that

language in here again." Turning away, the teacher muttered "At least he

doesn't

know what it means."



"I do, too!" the little boy replied. "It means the car won't start!

Message-ID:



Third and Final Call for RAK requests for April 2005:



Here it is, my third and final call for RAK requests for April 2005.

Deadline is April 2005 8th, 2005 for April 2005

RAK's.



Think about family, friends and co-workers too - does someone have a

birthday or anniversary in April 2005? Especially

if it is a "milestone"? Maybe you know someone who is going thru a hard

time right now and could use some cheering up?

Even someone who has been in the hospital and is on the road to recovery

- they get a lot of cards when they first get

sick, then nothing, maybe they could use to have some cards arriving at

their mailbox?



If so, why not add them to the RAK request list? Send me their names and

snail mail addresses and I'll be happy to put

them on the RAK list. The person to get the RAK could be a fellow

stamper, a friend, relative, neighbor, friend of a

friend, or yourself.



Being a web person, and a database person, I am going to try something a

little different for gathering names for RAKs.

I have created a webpage called "RST Email List RAK request form" on my

website - it is a hidden page, so the only way

you can get there is from this direct link

(http://www.littlebit.com/rak_request.htm). All you need to do is fill

out

the form and click SUBMIT.



OR



You can directly email me (judylp at littlebit.com) with your RAK request

(Please put RAK request in the subject line)



Which ever is easier for you is fine.



Your NEW RAK List Keeper



Judy "Dragonhome"



P.S. If you would like to be added to the list of people who send out

RAK's - email me with "ADD ME TO THE RAK SENDER

LIST" in the subject.

Message-ID:



I use the Red Castle software for making sheets of tags (you can custom

size

them, print them out with or without a marking where the hole is going to

go,

there are a lot of different shapes - you put in the dimensions and the

software figures out how many per row and how many rows). I can feed

card stock

through my printer so I print the lines right onto it, or onto lighter

paper that

I stamp, run through the Xyron, and then make sturdier by putting that

layer

onto something heavier.

Subject: RST! Thanks for Birthday Cards

Message-ID:



I received two birthday cards last week, one from Holly Young, and the

other from Barbara Hamilton-Hyatt. These two ladies always send me cards

each year.

The card from Barbara is one of her specialties with the beautiful paper

layered on top that has a blank space in the middle to stamp the

greeting. I love this paper.



The card from Holly used the daisy punch. Both the positive and negative

parts. I love that punch and have the same two sizes.



Thanks to both of you for honoring my birthday.

Message-ID:





Mary Ann, I brought the Noxon Spring Tool and had the lady demo it for me

as I

wanted to make sure I could use it before purchasing. I got the three

pack of

Eyelet Setter, Craft Hammer (for mashing the backs I think) and the

Wonder

Puncher.

When the person at the store worked it did great, but when I tried it (my

arthritis is bad lately) I could not get it to work.

Plus the "PING" sound that you get when you release the spring almost

gives my

cat Zeke Thunderpaws a heart attack every time.

He must think that some one is throwing something at him or doing it on

purpose

to scare him. Poor baby.



Due to good luck I now own both of these and they are wonderful! Both

will

punch that hole in cardstock without any problem. Quiet and no pounding!

How do

they set eyelets????? Don't know -- haven't tried that yet!

I got the birthday card today; what a clever idea to mail it in a CD

envelope so it shows through; the postal workers can enjoy it all the way

along. I like the way you combine stamps - I've got some of those

background stamps and didn't have a clue what to do with them. LOL

Thanks for the ideas. and it's also neat that every side of the card and

envelope are different. Fun BD RAK!

Subject: RST! Pure Color Pigment Roller

Message-ID:



I got three samples yesterday. It's a fun product. Delta's Pure Color

Pigment Roller is taller and a little bigger in diameter than my

lipsticks and

contains a half ounce of pigment ink. The top is a dauber, like the

dauber tops

Tsukineko sells for their Walnut inks - not a roller ball like a

deodorant

where the fluid comes out around the edges of a solid ball, but more like

a piece

of velvet over a foam tip and the ink comes out through it (your hand

pressure

determines where it goes and how much). The color starts immediately.

They

recommend that you shake it first to start the flow and to make sure the

metallic colors are well mixed. According to the person I talked to this

morning,

the web site has lots of product info including tips like popping off the

cap

if you want a pool of ink on a palette (for color mixing, to apply with a

brush, etc.). I got the impression they aren't shipping the product yet

- since I

asked if I could get some of the metallic green (called Shimmering Leaf)

and

a couple of other colors and was told they're not in stock yet. Works on

metal, glass, wood - looks like it'll be versatile. One of the samples

in the

brochure is a clear glass marble getting coated with the ink, but I

thought

immediately of stamping on the bottom, then adding more color so you

still see the

clear glass on top.

Subject: RST! Birthday Card Thank You

Message-ID:



I received another birthday card yesterday. This time from Denise

Krueger. It was made with black and an olive green cardstock. She used

background stamps around the edge in the same color green and stamped

inspirational words in the center.



Thanks, Denise, for thinking of me.

Take care,

Anne

Subject: RST! Thank you Judy P, Andrea, Kait(SallyAnn), Barb H-H

Message-ID:



I've been enjoying cards from four very talented people over the last few

days, displayed on the coffee table before I brought them to the computer

table

and the studio.



Sally Ann's granddaughter Kait made me a wonderful card with kittens

stamped

on the front, gently colored in soft pastels with a background that

matches

the colors in the cat-printed paper she used for the front of the card.

Inside,

a cat peers into a teacup (a sticker) and she stamped two lovely phrases

as

well as a thank you (since I'd sent her a card earlier).



Judy Perry's card is marbled paper topped with a collage that has a

postage

stamp edge, a woman with wings, some architectural elements and such,

embossed

in black and painted with iridescent colors. There is an onyx heart with

a

small diamond in the corner that looks exactly like a little vintage

piece I

found in Rhode Island many years ago. It looks like it belongs in a

brooch and

it's very elegant. I feel so happy that Judy was willing to part with

that

particular embellishment, since I've hoarded mine...



Andrea Scholes made a first day cover with a chipmunk postage stamp that

is

newly issued and has the first day cancellation. The envelope is filled

with

her beautiful carved stamps - that praying mantis surely needs to be made

into

rubber, Andrea. In fact, all of those carved images would be ones I'd

use in

a heartbeat! Did I ever mention to you that we have chipmunks all over

the

place every summer? I already saw the first couple scampering across the

front

yard over the weekend, looking for places to dig their tunnels, I think.



Barbara Hamilton-Hyatt sent me a hatbox, embossed in white on vellum and

colored from the back so the flowers and ribbons are soft and subdued.

The lid is

slightly open and there is lace at the border and swags of tiny

iridescent

pearls peeking out. One of the flowers is cut out and layered for added

dimension. This is such a pretty card - spring and feminine, you can

imagine the hat

that was in the box is now being worn by someone who is headed out to see

the

cherry blossom parade!



Thank you for the time and creativity and talent that have arrived in my

mailbox!

Subject: Re: RST! Pure Color Pigment Roller





I got three samples yesterday. It's a fun product. Delta's Pure Color

Pigment Roller is taller and a little bigger in diameter than my

lipsticks and contains a half ounce of pigment ink. The top is a dauber,

like the dauber tops Tsukineko sells for their Walnut inks - not a roller

ball like a deodorant where the fluid comes out around the edges of a

solid ball, but more like a piece of velvet over a foam tip and the ink

comes out through it (your hand pressure determines where it goes and how

much). The color starts immediately. They recommend that you shake it

first to start the flow and to make sure the metallic colors are well

mixed. According to the person I talked to this morning, the web site

has lots of product info including tips like popping off the cap if you

want a pool of ink on a palette (for color mixing, to apply with a brush,

etc.). I got the impression they aren't shipping the product yet - since

I asked if I could get some of the metallic green (called Shimmering

Leaf) and a couple of other colors and was told they're not in stock yet.

Works on metal, glass, wood - looks like it'll be versatile. One of the

Subject: RST! TAN: God's Busy

Message-ID:









A college professor, an avowed Atheist, was teaching his class.

He shocked several of his students when he flatly stated that there

is no God, the expression "One Nation Under God", was unconstitutional,

and further, he was going to prove there is no God.



Addressing the ceiling he shouted: "God, if you are real, then I

want you to knock me off this platform. I'll give you 15 minutes!"



The lecture room fell silent.



You could have heard a pin fall.



Ten minutes went by.



Again he taunted God, saying, "Here I am, God. I'm still waiting."



His countdown got down to the last couple of minutes when a Marine

just released from active duty and newly registered in the class walked

up to the professor, hit him full force in the face, and sent him tail

over teacup from his lofty platform.



The professor was out cold!



At first the students were shocked and babbled in confusion.



The young Marine took a seat in the front row and sat silent.



The class fell silent... waiting.



Eventually, the professor came to, shaken.



He looked at the young Marine in the front row.



When he regained his senses and could speak he yelled, "What's the

matter with you? Why did you do that?"



"God was busy. He sent me."

Does anyone know a mail order source for papier mache fruit and

I've seen them in craft chain stores, but of course it's not harvest

the real world, only in the land of long lead magazines...



Any ideas would be welcome. I got a concept approved this week and it's

due

in two weeks and I thought the editor would be able to send me the papier

mache pieces to cover, but her source doesn't have any.

Thanks in advance for any help -

Subject: RST! How to unstick a circle punch?

References:









Message-ID:



If you can't get the punch to release, put it (yes with the paper still

in

it) into the freezer for a while. The metal will contract causing the

punch to release. Then use the waxed paper to lubricate it.



Another way of lubricating your sticky punches-----------------

spray a piece of cardstock with WD40. Don't be stingy with it, really

spray

it on good. Now take the punch with the sticking problem and punch,

punch

away on that WD40 paper until it seems to be working freely. Then take

some scrap paper and punch the punch through that numerous times until no

trace of oiliness from the WD40 shows on the paper. That should fix

that

sticky punch up really good! Hope this helps.

I am too blessed to be stressed!

You use the punch on wax paper a few times and that greases it up so it

Subject: RST! ADMIN: Get to know our April SOTM - Barbra Byrnes!

Message-ID:



Tell us about your family, pets and occupation!



Well lets see, I have been married to the same man, Jack for 391/2 years.

WE have 3 sons, all who are married and have blessed us with 5 grandsons,

and the youngest one and his wife gave us a grand daughter 6 months ago.

We also have a daughter, well I do, from a previous relationship,

although to hear DH talk about her, you would swear she was hisLOL.

That is a long story though and this is not a good time to go into that.

She is not married and has no children. But we are best friends and love

to stamp together.



Tell us a few little known facts about you! (for example: when you were

in 6th grade you sold 750 boxes of girl scout cookies in one week! Or,

you are married to a world class sumo wrestler!)



hmmmmmmmmmm little known facts huh? well all through high school, I

played the alto saxaphone in jazz, marching, pep and concert bands. I

was one of the wall flowers in my class, but I didn't mind. I am a CNA,

trained in the care of alzheimer patients. I loved my work at

the nursing home. I was forced to leave my posititon when I developed

dizzy spells which caused me to have drop attacks. So now I play for a

living instead.LOL



What is the area where you live like?



medium sized town, home of the Green Bay Packers football team, in fact

the stadium is less than a mile from our home. We live in a quiet

residential neighbor hood.



If we came to your town for a visit, what would you be sure to tell us

notto miss?



well I know you will all expect me to say the Packer Hall of Fame and the

new stadium. I myself would NOT go there but I am not a football fan.



Tell us about the stamp/paper stores in your area!



I do not frequent the stamp stores in this town. Unfortunately I am not

well received because I

am considered to be "Competition" since I operate a stamp store myself.



How did you discover stamping?



I really don't know for sure. I THINK it found ME.LOL I was very

into card making via computer and some of the group I belonged to started

using stamped stuff to embellish their cards

with and that is all it took.



How long have you been stamping?



To be honest, it seems like all my life. Close as I can figure it, about

11-12 years.



How many stamps do you have?



uhoh well we counted my ums about 3 years ago and there were over 7000

of them, plus several hundred wood mounted stamps. I have NO clue how

many there are now but I KNOW they are multiplying like little rabbits in

those iris carts.



How long have you been on the RST! List?

off and one since the beginning waaaaay back when.



What do you like best about RST!?



The stampers of course. Special bunch of people.



What are some of your favorite stamping techniques?



i love backgrounds---------making them that is. My latest passion is

crinkled chalks, drunken chalks, brazen brilliance and faux leather done

with masking tape.



Have you ever been published in a stamping magazine?



Nope I have NEVER even sent in one of my stamped items for consideration.

I have no idea why not. Just never occured to me to do so I guess.



Have you been to any Rubber Stamping Conventions? If so, where?



Yes I attend the RubberStamp Expo conventions every year (twice a year)

for many years now. This year RSE will only sponsor one in Milwaukee,

the other is sponsored by Heirloom Productions. That convention is a

week from tomorrow and I can't wait.



What kind of images do you prefer? (ie cute, floral, elegant, weird,etc.)



I love anything except extremely CUTSEY or weird stuff.



Do you have a favorite Stamp Company?



OMG I have many but my latest fascination has been with TAC.



Do you have a room or area in your home dedicated to your stamping

supplies?



Yes I have a small bedroom upstairs that houses my main stamping supplies

but I do most of my stamping downstairs in the shop where I always have a

nice, uncluttered table to work on.



Can you share pictures?



Yes I am able to scan stuff, and I have a digital camera thanks to my

oldest son who got tired of me calling him to come in to town to take

pics of stuff I stamped.



If we saw this area, what would most people think?" .

A. Wow! Cool! I wish my area was set up like that!

B. How does she create anything in that disaster!?

C. Look at all that STUFF!

D. She hardly has any stamping stuff at all...I think I need to send her

some of mine!

If we are talking about my room up stairs then B would have to be the

answer to this question



What do the people in your life think about your stamping "hobby?"



Well dh used to think I was losing my mind, but since opening the shop,

and seeing all the students who take classes from me, he has changed his

mind. As for my dd, she is a newbie stamper of 1 year and is as hooked

as her Mom, and the dils all think it is great that I have something I

enjoy doing this much.



Share some of your favorites with us:



Color: hunter green, burgundy and lately purple

Season: oh I love them all but I think spring with the beautiful bloomin

bulbs

TV Show/s: Idol, and HOUSE

Movie/s: none

Munchies: chocolate,

Music: easy listening

Holiday: Christmas Dh and the kids say I am the biggest KID that

day.

Book: The Bible



Please share your favorite stamping tip!



oh I just shared that on the list today. spray a piece of cardstock

with WD40. Don't be stingy with it, really sprayit on good. Now take

the punch with the sticking problem and punch, punch

away on that WD40 paper until it seems to be working freely. Then take

some scrap paper and punch the punch through that numerous times until no

trace of oiliness from the WD40 shows on the paper. That should fix

that sticky punch up really good!



What would you do and/or buy if money were no object?



OMG probably a huge house with an enormous room to house my stamping

supplies.



Anything you would like to add?



thank you for choosing me SOTM for April.

When you do stamping, do you sometimes find a ethic influence - Mexican,

Native,

Portuguese etc.

And if you do is it the stamps you use, colours, arrange of your art etc.

I tend to use light peach tone colors. I think us "white folk" come in

so many

different shades that you could probably use anything from white to peach

to

very light tans. If someone has an awesome tan....you could even go

towards

the darker tan colors. Many times, clothing and hair color can add nice

contrasts to the skin color. So I always consider those items as well

when

working skin tones.



I never really thought about the ethnic angle in my art. My favorite

types of

stamping themes tend to run towards scenic stamping and that involves a

lot of

outdoor type scenery for me. However, I do enjoy adding Native American

elements to some of my scenic pieces as those two themes combine well. It

is

very difficult to find good Native American stamps. I mean...apart from

obvious clip art renditions that come from Dover books and have been

turned

into rubber stamps. I prefer original imagery drawn for the purpose of

making

a rubber stamp. THere have been a few companies out there who sold

beautiful

Native American image stamps...though they are no longer in business. My

favorite company was Arizona Stamps Too!....and I bought almost all the

Native

American stamps they sold before they went out of business. Ink Blocks

is

another company that specializes in Native American images...though those

images are more of the the Navajo/Southwestern flavor. Generally if I

find some

Native American type of stamps that immediately catch my eye, I buy them

then

and there.

happy with my white folks. What do you guys use?

i love backgrounds---------making them that is. My latest passion is

I found the best color for "white" people is the Radiant Pearls

"Angel Face". It is one color that I use ALOT of. I don't use my

I do keep my Radiant Pearls Angel Face in with my Twinkling H2O's because

use

whatever stamps I have that says "Mexican" to me. Same thing

for my colored friends, oriential, Jewish, Irish, etc.

Message-ID:



Wish we could send you the incredible weather Washington is having for

the

Cherry Blossom festival. Frank, Rudy and I got up early and were down by

the

Jefferson Memorial about 6:45 yesterday morning. It was already crowded.

In

fact, we had to park about ten blocks from where we wanted to be since

the lots

and streetside parking were already filled up. It was gorgeous. Blue

sky,

pink and white blossoms, Rudy was a hit with all of the kids and many of

the

adults and he came home and slept for a good nine hours without budging.

Frank

and I wore out, too, but only slept for a couple of hours since both of

us had

to work.



Of course, Washington goes from about four perfect days directly into

way-too-hot summertime, so I'm glad we had at least two perfect days in a

row to give

us reason to live here the rest of the time...



I took LOTS of pictures, got them cropped and saved just now, and am

going

back to work on the writing as soon as I give myself an email break -

Message-ID:



I like to use papers, stamps and embellishments that are international in

flavor. One of the reasons I like Movable Parts stamps of babies is

because it's

so easy to vary their skin tones by changing ink pads or markers. My

stamps

that I'd call ethnic are calligraphy, pottery, and such more than people

- but

for no particular reason other than the fact that I usually pick animals

and

objects more than human beings.



Skin tones are an infinite rainbow, that's for sure. I'd offer only one

thing that I mention in my drawing classes - no matter how light or dark

the skin

color is, there are always light, middle and darker tones and if you

avoid

black to darken the darker values in the person's skin you keep the

colors

fresher (not just Caucasian people, but all races).



Good topic, Barb!

Our newest granddaughter, Samantha arrived 3:45 Firday am, weighing

in at

6lb 4oz and 19 in long.



Very cute and sweet with a full head of black hair....that comes from

her

dad's side of the family, my kids were mostly bald for a while.



Big sister, Alex is accepting the whole thing, but wait until

everyone

gets

home and the sharing of mama begins.

Subject: RST! O/T: Stop your complainting

Message-ID:





The San Francisco Zoo has an elephant, named Calle. It seems that Calle

has a

chronic illness which requires daily medication. The zoo people couldn't

get

Calle to take her dose orally, so a pharmacologist developed a

suppository for

her.



The 10-inch-long, four-pound, cocoa-butter bullets are crafted by the

good folks

at Guittard Chocolates in Burlingame, California.



Administering the DAILY medication takes five zoo workers, including one

person

to distract Calle with treats and one person who wears a full-arm glove.



DO YOU KNOW WHAT ALL THIS MEANS?



It means that five people have jobs worse than yours!



Now stop complaining and get back to work.

Subject: RST! Perfect Weather - yeah right!

Message-ID:





Well we had sunshine finally today almost all day instead of a few hours

here

and there. But more rain is predicted for tomorrow which is going to be a

pain.

One of my neighbours Linda is having new carpet laid in her 1 bedroom

wheelchair

friendly suite, A lot of the stuff was going to be parked outside and I

see now

that is not going to work. Tonight I'm going over to help pack up things

with

the help of a few neighbours who also helped us gather up boxes. Linda

has tons

of stuff, some from when she was teaching in China so it may take awhile.

I hear

Linda is serving wine and maybe grapes or some light snack.

Tomorrow I get to host Linda and her wee dog Winnie well the carpet is

being

laid to keep Winnie from barking at the carpet layers and making a

nuisance of

herself (everyone who comes is suppose to pick Winnie up or she will claw

at you

with her two feet, bark, follow you around until you do even if you are

not a

dog lover). So I will bring over Linda's metal travelling mug that is

easy for

her to handle, the Nestle International Orange Cappichino coffee, any

pills

Linda has to take, Winnies toys, bowl for water and food etc. over to my

place

tonight in readiness. It will take between 3 to 4 hours to lay the

carpet. Linda

can take a nap on my (oh sorry, Zeke's and my) bed if she gets tired and

we'll

park the electric wheelchair for easy access so she can get back in it

again.

Zeke is not too frilled with a idea of the DOG coming to visit (Winnie

always

comes and eats HIS food and drinks HIS water, it will be picked up

tomorrow to

avoid confusion).

So that's it, rainy weather, moving tons of stuff and furniture, visit

from a

human and dog.

I did get the good news that the bad cholesterol level is down in my body

(not

all the way but some) must be all the dog walking and chores I'm doing

around

the building.

I'll probably be tired tomorrow night. LOL

Ohhhhhh..... I got mine today too and am just thrilled. I had seen the

post

it note holder but this one is so elegant. I love the button book and

must

try to make one of those soon. I love all the ways the little dream book

opens up to. What an inventive idea.

I have been dreaming of the day I would get one of Brenda's special

creations. It is "almost" too pretty to use. I did say almost.

And of course it is always fun to have someone's own special recipes.

Clever ideas girls.

I am going to be gone most of the rest of this month and part of May so I

am

going to have to skip the next swap I fear but I am looking forward to

hearing what you will be doing and then will join in again when I have

settled down for the summer.

Thanks to everyone for the great inspiration.

Subject: RST! COMM: "A LITTLE BAG" ANTI STATIC, MORE BAZZILL CARDSTOCK,

WINE LABELS, EMBOSSED FOIL.

Message-ID:



"A LITTLE BAG" -- You won't want to emboss without it.

Are you tired of getting little specks or sniglets of embossing powder on

your cards and other artwork? Is glitter or magic leaf clinging where you

don't want it to cling?

There is a solution that really works!

I make "A Little Bag" containing an all natural, non-toxic, anti static

powder. It quickly helps you get rid of the irritating and unsightly

problem of clinging EP, when heat embossing, or glitter clinging where

you don't want it to. Simply wipe it across your glossy or regular

cardstock (dark or light), or any other stamping surface, then stamp your

image, apply your embossing powder, tap it off, and apply your heat. It

is simple and very effective....no need to try to "brush away" your

excess EP, at risk of damaging your image! Saves you time.



You can also wipe "A Little Bag" across the paper or containers that you

use to catch the excess EP, Magic Leaf, Faerie Dust, Pearl Ex or glitter

and it will slide off easily into the container, with less waste.They are

receiving rave reviews from fellow stampers.

Unlike many other bags, they do not create a lot of dust, they don't

scratch your glossy cardstock and they don't leave obvious residue on

dark cs. Use "A Little Bag" on other stamping surfaces, i.e., shrink

plastic, vellum, transparencies, embossed foils, acetate, glass and

papyrus. You can also use them to keep your fingers dry, eliminating

finger prints on your artwork. They minimize static cling when making

shaker cards, as well. It is a totally harmless and natural product.



Remember, these are also ideal for gift giving in RAKs and for your

Secret Pals. Even more perfect tucked inside of one of your card

creations or those little hand stamped gift boxes!

At value for dollar, you can't beat the price.

Costco makes its babaghanoush with chickpeas and eggplant mixed instead

of

just eggplang, probably since chickpeas cost less, but it tastes

wonderful.

Leave out the lemon and you're still going to have a tasty spread for

sandwiches,

especially if the eggplant is grilled before you mash it up. I sometimes

spread it on a chicken breast for the last few minutes in the oven, too.

This is, by far, the craziest crafting show I have ever seen! The

description includes "It's Martha Stewart Living meets Mad Max Beyond

Thunderdome" if you want an idea of how crazy. It includes an

over-the-top host, a weird "lovely assistant", and... the Craft Lady of

Steel. Yeah. Crazy stuff. Kinda like "Iron Chef", but crafting instead

of cooking.



It's on Style Network Wednesday nights at 10:00 (repeated other times

during the day I'm sure). If you don't have cable, you can read about it

at http://www.stylenetwork.com and select "Craft Corner Deathmatch" from

the show menu.



It's a hoot!

Subject: RST! Thanks for birthday cards!

Message-ID:



I received two more birthday cards late last week. This time from Andrea

and Darla. It looks like Darla's card made a few side trips and/or sight

seeing tours along the way. It was originally postmarked in Provo on

3/17 and then in Elko, NV on 4/4.



I finally got to see what all of the rave was about with Andrea's CD

envelope cards. Great idea! You are always so creative!

Darla confessed that her card was store-bought but stamped and painted

with twinkling H2O's inside. They have quite the shimmer to them.



Thanks to both ladies for thinking of me.

Regards,

Anne

I've seen the show, what a mess, and no one ever beats the craft lady of

steel, but my current beef is with crafters coast to coast. Last night

they

showed an episode where the crafter demoed the heat gun by using it as a

blow

dryer. Awful...what if some young person or new crafter did

that....irresponsible programming continues.

Subject: RST! COMM: ***attention OREGON and WASHINGTON residents***

Message-ID:



This isn't really a COMM/AD yet..... let me explain.



I will NOT be at the Puyallup convention this year.

I know this is disappointing to a lot of people, so I am working on a BIG

BIG sale for people with Oregon or Washington addresses.



The sale will involve FREE shipping, no sales tax (since I am in Oregon),

and % off savings on almost everything in the store --- some items as

much as 30% off!!



So if you are in Oregon or Washington (or have an OR or WA address), e-

mail me and I will add you to my PUYALLUP SALE LIST.



Hugs,



-Fran the Frantic Stamper

I looked at the clock at two and it's now five. Not only has today flown

by,

the whole week seems to have disappeared. Writing is both a joy and a

torture, but I'm about two days from done on one of my bigger assignments

and I hope

to have ink and stamps in hand soon.



What is everybody up to? Spring and the garden beckon, too - I think I'm

going to press some flowers to use for a card so I can combine indoor and

outdoor

activities.

Subject: RST! COMM: ***Mega cardstock boxes, don't miss out!!***

Message-ID:



I am still getting rid of all the cardstock in inventory.....



What I have left now is all the "expensive stuff". At first, I didn't

want to get rid of it, but the more I look at the shelves, the more I

decided I need the space for things that just move better than cardstock.



The NEW cardstock deal of a lifetime is all "really good expensive

stuff".

For $36 including Priority shipping, you get:

-125+ sheets of assorted cardstock which includes: Marbled

Glossy, Metallic Glossy, Foiled cardstock, Moire paper, Vellum, Colored

Vellum, Self-adhesive colored vellum, handmade paper, printed background

paper, Stardream cardstock, stardream text weight, etc (NOTE: I don't

have enough of some styles to go in every package, so not everyone will

get woodgrain or moire for example)

-a 2lb package of handmade paper strips (4.25"x11")

-2 handmade journals (1 large and 1 small)

The retail value of this box is AT LEAST $90 and that is probably a low

estimate!!! All for $36 INCLUDING priority shipping.



****PLUS**** there is a space left in the box that measures 4"x3"x12"

which you can fill with other purchases at NO ADDITIONAL SHIPPING!!!

(so for example, you can add ink pads, new alcohol inks, glaze pens,

reinkers, embossing powders, brads, small or medium punches, etc..... and

pay NO shipping!)





Sorry, this offer is only available to US addreses.



Hugs,

Subject: RST! COMM: Crafters Coast to Coast Special!

Message-ID:





If you haven't heard the news, Suzanne Glazier of Penny Wise Arts (that's

me!) will be featured on the television show Crafters Coast to Coast next

Monday, April 18th! And if you have heard, then this is your reminder to

set

your VCR! It airs on Home and Garden Television - check your local

listings

for the time! I will be making FOUR projects in 12 minutes! Can ya

believe

that?? LOL!!



Featured will be my beaded African box, an African Shaker Card and

Matching

stamped and beaded pen and the bonus feature will be an elegant black and

gold beaded lace thank you card! These are all some of my favorite

techniques and I'll be showing you all the tricks and tips on how to make

them!



In honor of this exciting event Penny Wise Arts is offering a FREE

SHIPPING

special!! For the next week, all orders over $35 will receive FREE

SHIPPING!! AND the next 10 orders over $35 will ALSO

get a FREE packet of the ACTUAL beads that I used on the show!!

Orders under $35 will still enjoy our low, rate of just $3.85 for

Priority

Shipping!



We now offer our Clear Micro Beads in TWO sizes!! The regular ones are

.5mm

in size and the MINI Micro Beads are .35mm in size. What's the big

difference?? Let me tell you!!



The mini micro beads are obviously smaller, so they don't refract as much

light, which means that the image underneath doesn't get as obscured. So

for fine print images, details and words the mini's are the best! But

for

larger images, I still love the regular micro beads! Because they allow

more light to pass through they actually 'sparkle' more than the mini's.

And used TOGETHER they are awesome! The mini's will fill in the gaps

left

between the regular ones! How cool is that??



So don't forget to watch Crafters Coast to Coast on Monday - and order up

some micro beads so that you'll be ready to play!





Hugs!

Suzanne

Message-ID:







As we get closer and closer to the airing of my Crafters Coast to Coast

episode, I am learning that many of you won't be able to watch it and I

started thinking about what I could do from here to ease your pain! :0)

And

Yureka! I have an idea!! I'll host a DVD round robin of it!



To participate, you must have access to a DVD player and be willing to

watch

the show and pass the disk on to the next person on the list within THREE

DAYS. If you cannot commit to getting it watched and back in the mail

within THREE DAYS of receiving it, please do not join the round robin!!



I will circulate TWO copies of the show -- one here in the states, and

one

for all of our international beadie buddies! (I assume that a DVD is a

DVD

no matter where you live?) I only ask that when you RECEIVE the disk,

you

send an email to let me know AND when you SEND it on to the next person

on

the list you send me another email to let me know! Each person will be

responsible for paying the cost to ship the DVD via FIRST CLASS MAIL (or

its

equivalent) to the next person on the list!



If you want to join, just send me back a private email with your name and

address in it! I'll add you to the list!!

And remember that the project instructions WILL be posted on the Crafters

Coast To Coast Website!!

Our internet service has been wacky the last couple nights, it seems to

we all busy elsewhere? I haven't noticed much lately from Toni Pestro,

are you out there Toni? Wasn't today your stamp club? How did it go?



My stamp club on Friday was real relaxed. Only about 11 gals showed up

instead of our usual 20 or more. I know that 4 gals were gone to

Artiscape in Ohio and I have been waiting to hear from them but no emails

from them either.



The weather here in Michigan has been beautiful. Unbelievable in fact.

I've done some work outside, but that's made arthritis act up so I'm

cooling it on the outside work too.



I've been trying to get some Sympathy cards stamped as I am behind on

sending out two already. I have a friend coming over tomorrow to stamp,

she is counting on me to inspire her so.............I better get ready

for that. She has been having some health problems and got away from

her stamping. Last time she came over, all that she could handle was

looking at everything I've been doing or was sent to me.



Anyone out there, please speak up!

I'm here and nursing my sore toe still.

I had a operation for hammer toes that are affecting my walking last

Thursday

(7th) and when I went back to the foot specialist on Wednesday (13th)

despite

that fact I kept my toe dry I got a infection. So I'm babying it and

trying not

to walk too much on it which put a cabosh on my dog walking business

right now.

I did the one dog with a walk around the block but after that I was

trying to

keep my foot up and taking the antibiotics the doctor prescribed..

I was exhausted after having Linda and her little dog here all day

Tuesday

because they were getting a new carpet installed at their place, and I'm

not use

to hosting people all day long and keeping a mutt amused too.

I had to tell the dog's owner Linda who seems to think I'm her personal

slave

and kept calling 5 times a day expecting me to run down to her place

after I

told her that I had to keep my foot up on doctors orders off. It was

stupid

things like my T.V. doesn't work, I can't reach this etc.

After I helped her 3x today she called and I got peeved , she only lives

down

the way from my apartment in the same building but it is the walking that

makes

my toe ache.

I'm still waiting for the word on whether the health care system will pay

for my

foot support thingys or not and no word yet. When he gets the word then

the foot

specialist will cast the molds for them.

Well it is 12:00 somewhere (it's only 11:08 p.m. Pacific time where I

live) and

that means Friday's Topic of the Week.



I had to rack my brain (and believe me you would not want to go into my

brain

let alone rack it) to think of a Topic of the Week.

But then I remembered a conversion about artist Emily Carr who lived and

painted

on Vancouver Island here in British Columbia Canada. And I wondered since

I like

her work so much ... who is your favorite artist and how have they

influenced

your perception of art and affected your art work?

I love the style Emily Carr uses, muted tones and landscapes bringing

out the

natural colours.

I find that sometimes I do that same thing, using colours to bring out

the

natural beauty of what I am working on.

O.K., it has been slow this week, lets get some conversion started here.

Come on

everyone hopefully will have a favorite artist. Let's hear it.

Hi Pam and dear RST friends!!! I'm here. I know I've been quiet . .

.we've been working so hard on getting our house ready to go on the

market. Yesterday was the day we signed the real estate contract. I was

so stressed out yesterday, I had a meltdown in the morning. I was much

better after that. Good thing my hubby loves me and understands me. I

often think--when does he get to have his meltdown??



I did get myself together to go over to my stamping ladies for an hour.

I needed a "Joshua" fix. Joshua is Kathy's little four year old. He

treats me like his favorite aunt or dear grandma. Fifteen minutes of him

sitting on my lap and "helping me" and I feel much better :)



I have been working on "we've moved" cards. They are inspired by the

house shaped book I saw in Inspirations magazine. Kind of a house shape,

cut from collagey looking paper. New street number 909 in glossy

typewriter key numbers. Tag with cool fibers saying we've moved. I also

cut some window cards using the ellison machine at Archiver's this week

AND I bought one of the sizzix dies of a house shape. I have lots of

ideas bubbling in my brain . . .



Please send good thoughts and prayers regarding sending the right home

buyer for our house. We need someone who can be flexible and wait until

our new house is ready. Is that too much to ask for :)



You all take care and have great weekends. Our weather is so beautiful

here, too, Pam. Got to stop and enjoy it!!



Toni

It will all fall into place, just you wait and see, Toni. Before you

know it

your new house will feel like home (because the minute you walk in the

door

it'll be home just because you're there - and once you put towels in the

bathroom and make the bed and open the fridge to see your favorite things

you'll

feel fine).



I keep having to laugh at that pizza ad where the guy comes to the door

to

get his three pizzas and says to the delivery man that he could get

olives or

pineapple - and his wife pipes up, "but you got pepperoni" and he shrugs

his

shoulders and says, "I fear change."

I guess all of us love change in certain things but find it stressful in

other areas (moving has got to be toward the top of the list for most

people,

though I have one friend who buys a new house every couple of years,

fixes it up

and sells it - as her career - and I can't even imagine it...since I'm

the one

who hopes to live right where I am for the rest of my life).



Anyway, the right buyer is going to walk through the door, fall in love

with

the house, and live there as happily and maybe even as long as you did!

Mark

my words -

Subject: RST! where is everyone? On an Eltie adventure! Part 1

In-Reply-To: 6667

Message-ID:



It has been very quiet lately. I may just be lurking these days, but

that doesn't mean I don't miss you guys when it's too quiet!

I've mostly been just laying low trying to recover from my little trip to

see my buddy Tim last week before he left for four months overseas. Tim

had some work to do in Vegas, so he flew me out so we could have a visit

before he left. I also got to visit with Adrienne O'Keeffe and Helen

Davis, and let's face it, would it be possible for me to be in a city

with my beloved Elton and NOT go see him? Of course not! Hmmm....maybe

that's what you guys need....an Eltie adventure story!!! (Although

they're never quite as good when Nise isn't there.)



Ok, let's start a couple of weeks ago. Tim has been trying to get me out

to visit for awhile, but I've begged off, mostly just because I haven't

felt well enough with the chemo to do anything, or even think about going

anywhere. Then this trip came up for him, where he'll be out of the

country for the next four months, but I was still whining about being too

sick to go. Then one day I went to chemo, and Dr Cancer sat me down and

gave me a giant slap of reality. She told me my counts were truly bad,

and the chemo doesn't appear to be helping. She gave me the "I'm only a

doctor, not God" speech, but told me she thought I would be significantly

worse and weaker within the next few months, so if I had anyone I wanted

to see, or anything I wanted to do, I should do it now. Talk about a

chat that will ruin your day! So, since Tim was willing to play Sugar

Daddy and cover all my expenses, after much debate, I decided to go.



Day 1



I got on the plane in Tampa, and checked my power wheelchair through to

Vegas, even though I had to change planes in New Orleans. They took me

in a regular airline wheelchair between gates, and I felt better when I

looked out the window, and actually saw them loading my chair onto the

plane to Vegas. I felt better, that is, until I got OFF the plane in

Vegas. I have to wait till everyone else is off the plane, and then

they're supposed to bring my wheelchair down to the plane for me. They

met me with an airline wheelchair again, and told me the baggage

supervisor was coming to talk to me. Uh-oh. My power chair is less than

a year old, and looks virtually brand-new -- or it did. When they took

it off the plane, it looked like it had been dropped off a 40 story

building. The electronics were hanging off the arm, the paint was

scratched in every possible place, and the right wheel was wobbling and

hanging off. I was almost in tears -- I'm 3,000 miles from home, and

alone,

because Tim has been delayed at work, and I have no way to get around.

Southwest tells me to trust them -- they'll fix everything. So, I take a

deep breath, and decide to do just that. They tell me they'll rent a

chair for me to use while they have mine fixed, and then bring mine right

to the hotel. No problem! So they send me off in a cab to Caesar's

Palace, where there is supposed to be a rental chair waiting for me.

Except when I get there -- no chair. Tim has arranged for me to have a

disabled accessible room, and I figure at least I'll get checked in. I

get to the room, which was lovely, except instead of a barrier free

shower, it's got a sunken tub. Probably not a good idea, unless I don't

want to bathe for the next five days. So, by now I've called Tim five or

six times bordering on hysteria since I'm trapped in the room with no

wheelchair, and he tells me he won't get there before midnight. Not what

I wanted to hear. He gives me a list to keep me busy -- call the

desk and insist they change the room -- call Southwest and find out just

exactly WHEN I can expect a chair -- call room service and get some food

before I faint -- and then he tells me to call the concierge and see if I

can get a ticket to Elton's show for that night, and just charge it to

the room. Well, ok....if he insists!



I guess the fates decided it was about time to give me a break, because

when I called down to ask for a guest services manager, I was hooked up

with the fabulous Patrick. If you ever go to Caesar's, and have any

problem, big or small, trust me, Patrick is your go-to guy. I must have

sounded fairly desperate because he was so wonderful to me -- he calmly

told me to tell him everything that was wrong, and he would take care of

it. Now, I told him I knew the chair issue wasn't Caesar's problem, but

Southwest's, and yet he said he would handle it since I was Caesar's

guest, and it looked like Southwest wasn't handling it properly. I loved

him already. He had me moved to a room with a fully disabled accessible

shower immediately, and you should have seen this room! The bathroom

alone was three separate rooms, and the room that was just for the

commode was bigger than my entire bathroom at home! He tells me he'll

find me a chair by 6PM, and he'd see if he could get me a ticket even

though the show was sold out, and oh, by the way, what did I want to

eat? He'd call room service for me. Wow! Talk about my hero! Finally,

Southwest called around 4 to say they were sending my "fixed" chair to

the hotel. Well, it wasn't really fixed, but it was usable, and at that

point I was grateful just for that. I decided to lie down because I was

so exhausted and upset, and fell asleep in a heartbeat. The phone woke

me up and it was Patrick, telling me he was so sorry, but he couldn't get

a ticket for that night, but he'd surely get me one for the next night.

I was so tired I was actually glad -- I really didn't feel up to going to

the show that night. I had plans to meet Adrienne the next morning

because Tim had meetings all day, and being in bed by 6 PM seemed like a

really good idea to me. I drifted off again, and woke up to the phone

again. Tim --it was obvious he woke me up, and I think he was glad to

have an excuse to make it quick. It gave him the chance to say

"Go back to sleep, hon" before I could protest too much-- he was having

major problems at the studio, and would DEFINITELY be there the next

morning. So far, not the trip I planned.

I believe in love, it's all we got.

Subject: RST! TOTW: a bit early

Message-ID:



Another great topic, Barb. Boy, am I happy I retired and you and Judith

are

going to be at the helm of the Topic of the Week - it's so much fun

thinking

about answers to the topic question instead of trying to come up with

one.



I'm probably influenced most by Monet and my dad - a painter and

printmaker

in his younger years but never famous (though he did have a painting in a

museum in Cincinnati as part of a brief college exhibit). My mother was

an artist,

too, but her work was more controlled and I never could be as realistic

as

she was, so she influenced me to work hard at drawing but she didn't

influence

me in as many ways as my father did - and still does.



Monet sits on my shoulder whenever I mix colors, reminding me that the

human

eye can do part of the work so I don't have to blend everything, I can

simply

dapple things together and then stand back to look at the effect. I can

visit

one of his paintings and spend an hour walking back and forth, close to

the

surface as I can get without getting arrested and then across the room to

see

how things look from different angles, and still not feel like an hour is

enough time. Frank sometimes kids that there should be a sofa and lunch

should be

served (he goes into other parts of the gallery and comes back now and

then to

see if I'm still staring at the painting).



My dad taught me to use really good tools and then take care of them. I

have

the wood carving tools he bought me way, way, way back when and they're

good

as new and sharp as can be (he taught me how to sharpen them so I

wouldn't

have to depend on someone else to do it). He also taught me to simplify

shapes

and use unexpected surfaces. He did airbrush on foil in 1938 and was

never

afraid to paint on whatever was handy.



I don't try to paint like Monet or do work that looks like my father's -

the

influence isn't direct in that sense, but the color palettes they both

used do

creep in quite a bit whether I'm knitting or stamping, creatiing a

scrapbook

page or designing a cross stitch piece.



My teachers made a huge impact on me when it comes to thinking that

looking

at art is important. They stressed it over and over - telling us to go

see

what other artists had made in times past and were making as contemporary

work.

I always thought their advice was good, even though remembering dates and

obscure facts for exams did seem ridiculous.

there are no surprises...

We happily decided to push on and arrived on Sat. instead of Sun. We

were parked and all snug when the blizzard hit. We had all our winter in

just under 24 hours. It is now all gone and was 77 today. Ahhhh CO in the

I have gone to a couple stamp stores. I had a really fun time in The

Message-ID:



Day 2



I had met a friend from Norway yesterday and she wanted to meet for

breakfast, and so I had eggs with her before Adrienne arrived. Adrienne

and I met back up in my room, and she brought me wonderful paper and a

stamp, and taught me a new technique for making darling pockets for

cards. So, Adrienne and I are hanging out in my room when Patrick calls.

He has gotten me a ticket for the show that night, but I can't pick it up

until after 4 PM at will-call. Now, Patrick and I had discussed the

ticket the day before, and I told him to get me the least expensive one,

since the prices are outrageous. The CHEAP ticket is $125, and they go

to almost $300. Except now, Patrick tells me that the hotel would like

to buy the ticket for me since I had so many problems the day before. I

was really impressed -- that is amazing customer care! Tim called --

again -- said he would be there by midnight. There was really nothing he

could do -- it's just the way his job is. I'm not even upset.

I've got Adrienne with me, Helen is meeting us at 4 PM for dinner, and

now I've got a ticket to see Elton in the evening, and my friend from

Norway wants to meet after the show for dessert at the Cheesecake

Factory. I'll be BUSY till midnight! So, I go to will-call to pick up

my ticket, open the envelope, and nearly faint. Patrick has gotten me

front row, right at Elton's feet! If I were any closer, I'd be on the

piano bench with him. We meet up with Helen, and decide on Viale's for

dinner, a darling little Italian restaurant with outdoor seating right at

Caesar's, and the weather couldn't have been more perfect for dining al

fresco. We had a wonderful meal with fabulous food and even better

conversation. Too soon, it's time for me to dress for the show, so the

girls come back with me, and calm me down when I break the strap on my

only black bra, and of course, the blouse REQUIRES a black bra. I take

my place right in front of my beloved Eltie's piano bench, and I am soooo

spoiled -- then there is the heart-stopping moment for me when he walks

out on stage, sees me, and there's that moment of recognition. I'm

always amazed he knows me, but he smiles, blows me a kiss, and touches

his hand to his heart. Sigh....all the aggravation of the trip would

have been worth it just for that moment.



Finally, the Timster arrives! The next two days were just for visiting--

Tim shopped a bit in the Elton store, we had wonderful meals, but

mostly, it was just a chance to spend some time with someone who means

the world to me. EJ's show was dark on Thursday, so poor Tim didn't even

have an opportunity to go, although he looked so tired and stressed, I

don't think he really even cared. Friday afternoon came too soon, and

he had to leave for the airport and head overseas. I cried -- a lot. My

flight wasn't until early Saturday morning, so to keep me out of trouble

he gave me a ticket to see EJ's Friday night show. Well, if I HAVE

to..... I didn't exactly love the Vegas show last year -- I'd made the

comment that you barely noticed Elton among all the STUFF going on, but

it has changed a lot. He seems much more in control, and is very chatty

between songs, even telling jokes and stories. I think he's feeling much

more comfortable with the style of show, and I liked it much

better this time. Oh, and I got to see and talk to all the guys in the

band on their way into the show -- I found the backstage entrance quite

by accident.



I got to the airport nice and early, and while I was waiting for my

flight out of Vegas, I was chatting with our pilot, who was waiting at

the gate as well. He was sweet, charming, and one of the most handsome

men I've ever seen in my life. The plane was coming in from elsewhere,

and he was going to take over and fly us to Austin. While we were

talking, one of the gate crew came over to tag my chair, and I asked him

to please be sure they were especially careful with it, since it had been

damaged on the flight to Vegas, and it still wasn't fixed properly. Mr.

Handsome Pilot says to me, "Don't worry -- I don't let bad things happen

on my flights." Alrighty, then....I totally believed him -- men who look

like that could sell me swampland in Florida, and I would willingly

believe every word they said. So we get to Austin, and it takes a LONG

time for them to come and get me (they bring my chair right to the

plane). Finally, they tell me they'll take me up in one of their

wheelchairs and have my chair at the gate. Uh-oh. So, I'm sitting at

the gate waiting for my chair, and Mr. Handsome Pilot appears and sits

down next to me. I knew it wasn't good....especially when the first

thing he said was, "Now I don't want to upset you..." Double uh-oh.

Apparently, they weren't quite as careful as they promised to be, because

now the electronics are hanging off the chair again. They've got about

six people gathered around working on it, and while they were VERY nice,

nice doesn't substitute for a working wheelchair. I am just sitting

quietly because I am so upset, I know if I open my mouth, the tears will

start, and I would really prefer not to humiliate myself in front of

these people. So, Captain Handsome keeps saying, "Don't worry --we're

going to take care of this." That is exactly what the guy in Vegas said,

and we all know how that worked out. So, they are all working away, and

finally, they bring the chair to me. They have reattached the

electronics with....are you ready?.....duct tape!!!! Yes, handy-dandy

tool of the mechanically inept -- they duct-taped my electronics onto the

arm. They SWEAR to me that this will hold, and once I get the chair home

to Tampa, I can call my wheelchair repair guy, and they, of course, will

pay for everything. Now, as I see it, I don't have much choice here, do

I? They all kept saying how sorry they were, and while that was lovely

and fine, it didn't do a whole lot for my confidence. So now we get on

the flight to Tampa, and I slept all the way home. I am just exhausted,

physically and emotionally. We land in Tampa, and everyone else gets off

the plane, and the flight attendant tells me "someone from baggage is

coming with your chair." OK, so we wait.....and wait....and wait...and

finally, once again, they send someone with one of their chairs to take

me up to the gate. This man appears who tells me he will take me to the

baggage claim office, and that there is a supervisor

on the way. Now you KNOW this can't be good. At this point, I am so

upset and tired, and I am fighting back the tears and I have sworn off of

flying ever again as long as I live. Finally, my chair arrives at the

claim office, and once again, the entire electronics pack is just

dangling -- and the duct tape is GONE. I asked him why they took the

tape off, and he tells me it arrived that way in Tampa. Now, I don't

know who to believe, but my chair isn't functioning, and if one more

person says to me, "Don't worry, we're going to take care of this", I am

about ready to perform painful trans-gender surgery on them without the

benefit of anesthetic. Once again, addendums are filed to the original

damage report, and I'm told to just go home and call claims on Monday

morning. One little problem -- because the chair isn't functioning

properly, it took almost an hour to get it loaded onto the transport van

-- the electronics are apparently fried, and when you point the joystick

forward, the chair might go forward....or maybe backward....or maybe in

a circle. Sort of wheelchair roulette. At this writing, the function

of the chair is repaired, but we're still working on the cosmetic

aspects.



So after all this, I go to chemo on Monday, and Dr Cancer sits me down

again. She wants me to seriously think about doing another round of

chemo. I can't believe it -- I still have two weeks to go on this round,

and she wants me to sign up for twelve MORE weeks! Sigh...but in the

end, I'll probably do it. I don't have much choice if I want to win this

battle, do I?



Hugs,

Judith

YOur "we've moved " cards are sounding great!



when we moved we had spent so much time checking on the house as they

built it that moving into it really did seem like coming home! We had

even came over here a couple times while it was being built and had

picnic dinners on the floor in the kitchen just for fun (You know they

don't lock up the houses until they get past a certain stage) The

workers were used to my poking my head in while they were working and

taking measurements and stuff. (We only lived 2 miles away at our old

house). I am sure you will do a few drive bys and walk throughs as the

new house progresses and it is amazing how much that makes it feel like

home right from the beginning.

Hi Pam and dear RST friends!!! I'm here. I know I've been quiet . .

.we've been working so hard on getting our house ready to go on the

market. Yesterday was the day we signed the real estate contract. I was

so stressed out yesterday, I had a meltdown in the morning. I was much

better after that. Good thing my hubby loves me and understands me. I

often think--when does he get to have his meltdown??



I did get myself together to go over to my stamping ladies for an hour.

I needed a "Joshua" fix. Joshua is Kathy's little four year old. He

treats me like his favorite aunt or dear grandma. Fifteen minutes of him

sitting on my lap and "helping me" and I feel much better :)



I have been working on "we've moved" cards. They are inspired by the

house shaped book I saw in Inspirations magazine. Kind of a house shape,

cut from collagey looking paper. New street number 909 in glossy

typewriter key numbers. Tag with cool fibers saying we've moved. I also

cut some window cards using the ellison machine at Archiver's this week

AND I bought one of the sizzix dies of a house shape. I have lots of

ideas bubbling in my brain . . .



Please send good thoughts and prayers regarding sending the right home

buyer for our house. We need someone who can be flexible and wait until

our new house is ready. Is that too much to ask for :)



You all take care and have great weekends. Our weather is so beautiful

here, too, Pam. Got to stop and enjoy it!!

I can't say much to this Barb as I don't have a favorite. I have never

kept

names like this in my mind much. I mean I know some of Monet's famous

stuff

and Picaso, but..........what can I say.....

This isn't exactly an artist but I once went to a sewing demonstration

and

the women described how expensive material wasn't really expensive if you

made something that you wore a lot of times. She said cheap material

became

expensive if you only wore it once or twice. That made sense to me and I

use it as a rational for when I buy art and stamping supplies. I tell

myself they will be well used so they aren't very expensive after all!

So I

guess that sewing instructor influenced my art!

I so agree about sore feet. I have had foot probs all my life. Happily at

this time they are under the control of a great DR. I have the orthotics

and

celebrex very low dose.

Sort of a bother knowing at any minute it can all start up again..

We are doing check ups.. and he said I am good to go for another year...

Yay..



I do so sympathize.. Once the foot hurts the hip hurts,then the back

Oh, Toni..

We so understand what is happening to you. I agree one good meltdown does

clear the air. I had a minor one doing all the Dr. stuff. Dave was the

victim..lol He is just the one that is here. Happily he is calm about it

all and just

waits it out.

It is such a relief/worry to finally have it on the market. I know

several

folks who had buyers work on delayed ownership. So just know our thoughts

prayers are with you on this...

I agree on the *kid* fix. I talk to the gk. They just know I am the best

Well, they resumed delivery, but no accumulated mail. I've called them

ridiculous -- I have never gone two days, let alone a week, with NO mail.

No bills, no ads, no catalogs, no nothing? I don't think so. But they

SWEAR there is nothing, and told me I would need "proof" there WAS mail

to make a claim. How do you prove you have mail that you've never seen?

Anyone want to tackle this one?

If there are things you get on a regular basis, like bills, you can check

with the sender on when it was mailed out. If there are magazines you

subscribe to and you know someone else who has received their copy, you

at

least have that info to provide.



Also, if you know anyone who says they sent you personal mail you can

have

them say so (I don't know what kind of affidavit they'd need to provide

besides word of mouth). Did any of us RSTers send Judith a card while

she

was gone?



Ads would be discarded, but catalogs should be in your stack. You'd need

to know which ones and contact them to see if they sent anything that

would have arrived in that time frame. Bills and personal mail are your

best bet, and easiest to check on.

Subject: RST! Thank you

Message-ID:



I received a wonderful card from Judy Perry. A lovely stamped image of a

rose is layered on dark green cardstock. The shading is beautiful on the

rose. Is that Twinkling H2Os?

I also received a great card from Sue Archer. I love the textured paper

that

looks like fabric and the butterfly looks like it was embroidered right

onto the card. Great idea!

Judith sent me a cheery springtime jonquil card for my birthday. with a

little gem attached to the front of the card. It's so elegant! Who makes

that stamp? I think I need to have it.

Tweety's birthday card has an embossed image of pansies on it. I have

been

so out of the loop when it comes to new techniques that I have no idea

how

you colored it. The shading is wonderful! Can you tell me how you did it?

At

the bottom of the card she used the ribbon punch with a lovely ribbon

threaded through it. That's another thing I'll need to buy.

Judi K. sent me a postcard in a handmade envelope. I love the texture

stamps

you used. She even sent me a similar unmounted stamp. I just realized I

don't have any texture stamps and that I should start a collection. Well,

you actually just started the collection for me. Thank you!



Thank you ladies for all these wonderful cards!!! I really appreciate

every

single one of them. RST friends are the best!!!!

Hi,



Can I join in the ache and pain club??? Off soon for an Xray of the

shoulder and hip -- on opposite sides of course. I figure it is either

aging or the

lipitor is killing me!!!!! LOL



Sounds like I need to check out the dollar stores! I never seem to have

good

luck at them, although at one time I did find those stickers with real

flowers in them.



I have been experimenting with cutting and tucking. After taking a make

and

take with the Pop up guy I think I finally learned how to use that #16

blade.

But after cutting my finger a couple of weeks ago and getting 7 stitches,

that finger is just a little leery of getting too close! lol I have

also been

challenging myself to submit to magazines. Rubber stamper is calling for

designing cards with die cuts, so I have been working on those with my

Wizard

and Sixxix. I just must learn which glue to use-- Probably should go back

to

double sided tape, where I started.



I am also challenging myself to use some of my accumulated stuff, before

it

goes bad.



Also following a thread on another list about reinkers. One thing I never

understood is why a person would go out and buy all the colors in a

particular

brand and all the reinkers? I mean, how many ink pads can a person

use???????



Those are my thoughts, little as they are.



I'm here by the way!

Subject: RST! FYI(comm) Pure Pigment Color Rollers & More

Message-ID:



Today I got the newest products from Rubberstampede and I wanted to share

my excitement. Rubberstampede has entered the ZONE of Rubber Stamping

Explosion!!!!!



Pure Color Pigment Ink Rollers

This product was introduced at CHA last Feb and will soon hit the retail

stores by May 1...but guess who has a contact with Rubberstampede on

these...awww...you guessed

The PURE pigment ink roller looks like a cross between a dauber and

lipstick. These little rollers are "juicer" than the average pigment ink

pad. They come in 28 colors, including 6 metallics. You can apply DTP, on

a

stamp, thru a stencil, on glass, wood, and metal. Not sure on shrink

plastic, but worth a try. This is truely the NEXT generation of ink

products.



FABRIC peel and stick

What a cool way to add fabric backgrounds to scrapbook pages, cards,

tags, altered books and more..Comes in a variety of 12 patterns. Unreal



THE STAMPS

Rubberstampede has given up alot of the "cute" appeal and gone retro,

vintage, collage, even to photo art stamps. I was blown away by the

stuff



Because Rubberstampede was purchased by Delta..I can get ahold of all

their

paper paints, acyrlic paints, STENCILS (some are peel, stick and throw

away) and lots more



Am placing an order by the end of the month in an anticipation of the

PURE

COLOR inks release...so if anyone is interested..let me know

the color inks will $5 each and metallics are $7



just sharing my excitement

Subject: RST! Dolar Store Stickers

Message-ID:





Did I tell you that I am surrounded by dollar stores where I live? I

have a

total of 15 different stores within a easy walking or bus ride and at

least 10

more within a longer bus ride, a lot are not true dollar stores where

everything

is a dollar We don't have Dollar Trees but Giant Dollar Stores which are

true

and huge dollar stores are here, I don't know if that is a Canadian or

U.S.

franchise?

I went into a Mom and Pop type dollar store while waiting for my

prescription to

be filled at the drug store and found some Time of Craft stickers, they

are so

cute and remind me of the Jolee stickers but not as expensive, only a

$1.85 per

sheet and they had quite a few different ones which means a visit back

there

again when I get some money to buy a pile of them for RAKs and a few for

myself.

The baby and wedding ones are really cute and I almost brought the

alphabet one

but decided not to only to receive the same ones as a RAK from someone in

my

local scrapbooking group. We use to have Stickers etc. stores here but

the one

closest to me shut down and I hear others did too so I guess that is the

end of

that. They had every sticker imaginable, if you could not find a sticker

you

could go there and they would even order stickers in that you wanted but

they

didn't have for a fee. Sigh, I miss them.

Give me a sense of humor Lord,

Give me the grace to see a joke,

To get some humor out of life

And pass it on to other folk!

Subject: RST! Comm New! Evo's Stamp & Stencil Kits :}>

Message-ID:



Heyyyyyyy, Folks ...



And as many of you know, and I'm sure many of you don't ... one of our

most

innovative products is an EvoStencil to match the images on 11 of our

stamp

plates.



What do you do with these stencils? Well, after you''ve stamped your

images, you place the matching EvoStencil over them and stencil in

multiple

colors from your ink pads, concentrating your colors around the

edges.. And when you lift the stencil? Your images look as if Mother

Nature herself has colored them. You can even dry emboss your images!



And, each EvoStencil also includes the "drop-outs" ... the positive

shapes

... for you to use as masks for stamping multiple images, creating images

"behind" images.



For the first time ever, we are offering EvoStamp & Stencil Kits.



Each kit contains the rubber stamp plate of your choice + the matching

EvoStencil and drop-outs + a Li'l Blue Stencil Brush + two samples of

our

Stamp & Peel papers (white glossy & matte) all for one price!



What do you do with the Stamp & Peel? You stamp images on the papers,

stencil in color, trim them out, peel off the back and layer those

beautiful images on your artwork for added dimension.



The entire kit ... $15.50. And, we think you'll LUV these kits!



You can see the rubber stamp plates and matching EvoStencils here:

http://evolving-images.com/evostencils.htm



Just email us and say ... Stencil me, Evo! ... then tell us which kits

you

want, and they're yours!



And, our newest Stamp and Stencil tutorial page here:

http://evolving-images.com/stampandstencilclassnew.htm



Oh! And if you haven't joined in on "Evo's April Mystery Event" yet,

there's still time! The last of our solidified orders went out

yesterday,

and we have more Mystery Packets made up ready to zip right out to you

Monday. You need time to play and create before the April 25th scan

deadline, so if you're planning to join the fun, let us know this

weekend. We've had a tremendous response to this event (over twice as

many as we expected), and we are truly pleased to see soooo many of you

playing with us!



If you missed our post on April's Mystery Event and need the details, let

us know and we'll zip that info right out to you.

My father in law passed away this morning. He was 83 yrs old & had been

struggling with myeloma for the past few years. The last two weeks had

been very hard for him as he & the drs decided to not do any more blood

transfusions. We were able to see him a week ago when we were in the

Seattle area for a race.



I'm so thankful he's no longer in pain. He'd said last week he just

wanted to go to sleep and wake up in Heaven. Today he's the best party in

Heaven!

Please remember my husband David in your thoughts and prayers! (and the

rest of us, too)

Hi everyone,



I have the great opportunity to travel to China on business next week.

I'll have a day or so of free time, so I'm going to go to the Great

Wall and to the Forbidden City when I'm in Beijing. I'll have a day in

Shanghai, but I doubt if I'll have time to sightsee there.

My father is from Shanghai, so this is also a chance to see a bit of my

family history and culture.



I'm so excited!



Best,

I have been getting ready for the Adventures In Stamping convention in

Akron as well. I can't wait. I've been making pins and also enjoying

this wonderful weather we are having. I do hope the good weather holds

for the rest of the week clear into the Akron convention. I will be

meeting some friends up there that I have been stamping with when I go to

their house for stamping slumber weekends. Dh will be coming too, he

enjoys going with me and if he gets tired or bored, he will probably go

to the hotel room and finish watching the football draft. LOL Plus we

made sure to get another room with a Jacuzzi in it again. LOL I will be

taking a class on Saturday there as well.

I don't have the email, but I remember one year when a last minute

convention came up for me and I had the time of my life. I now go to

that

convention regularly but the people I go with has changed from year to

year,

and it's next weekend in Akron!!!

Hey, Robin,



I read your post too fast, and at first, I thought your class on Saturday

was IN the jacuzzi! Hey, maybe there's an idea there.................



Beats the heck out of my plans. Tomorrow, I go in the hospital to have a

morphine pump implanted to try and control the pain. They insert the

tubing in my spinal column, then test it, and if it goes well, they'll

implant the pump in my abdomen. Frankly, at this point, I'd let them do

anything if it makes the hurt go away.



I'd much rather be going to Akron with you! Have enough fun for me, too,

ok?



Hugs,

Judith

Judith,



I wish I could make all the pain go away, and my

favorite Scarlett all better, but I know I can make

you smile, even if just a little bit.



You know me, and I know you, so remember that as you

read this.



I have a CD that I made to wake up to, and fall asleep

to. I knew ahead of time that I had NO IDEA how to

make my player/alarm clock choose a different song, so

I knew I would be waking up to the FIRST song on the

CD every morning.



That song that I chose?



(and I think of YOU when it comes on)



"Your Song"



And knowing me, you KNOW that this is a LEAP. I told

you sometime back that I fell in love with that song.

And now, while it is the ONLY EJ song I like, (sorry),

I hear it every morning, and also on my iPod. (For

what it's worth, my hubby is still in shock that I did

this!! He likes EJ, himself.)



So there. That should make you SMILE big, since we

both know that while I respect his talent, I don't

really care for his songs (and I do love the way he

treats you, so that elevated him too!). Now, if I put

Crocodile Rock or something on my iPod, I want you to

have me COMMITTED, because I've obviously lost my mind

and become someone else. :-) :-)



Many hugs,

Christina

This is a kitchen towel exchange. This is how it works ... Please send a

kitchen

towel to the person that is listed in #1 position below. (There is only

Only your name and my name should appear on this list when you sent your

This is not a chain letter, it is just for fun.

If you can not do this within 6 days, please let me know so it will be

fair to

those participating. A manila envelope will mail the towel nicely. You

should

receive 36 towels for the price of one. It is fun to see the different

My nephew Nathan who now likes to be called Nate who is in his 30's now

took

university courses to get his ESL (English Second Language) teaching

degree.

Nate worked as a teachers aid during his university years to earn extra

money,

and went to teach as a ESL Teacher assistant in Japan for a summer then

came

back to Canada to the university and got credit for this teaching

experience in

Japan. Well finishing up at the University of British Columbia Nate met

Lai from

Korea who was also getting her ESL teaching degree and after they

graduated they

both went off to Korea to teach. last year they were married and Nate

teaches at

the university in Seoul and also does private ESL teaching and Lai is

working as

a private ESL teacher. My sister Elaine and brother-in-law Norm went to

Korea

where they just had a joining ceremony (sort of like a reception but way

after

they were married) .

And now Lai sister came to Canada and is staying with my sister and

brother-in-law while she gets her degree to teach.

But my sister did not know her name as she is always referred to as Third

Sister

or Third Daughter by her sisters and parents, I'll have to ask Elaine

what her

name is. lol

I hope the conflict over in Korea does not esculates that could cause

problems

for them.

Q: How do you eat an elephant?

A: One bite at a time.



When you read my little story, you will either think I am crazy, or that

I am NUTS!!!



Last week, I entered into an agreement with Nankong Ent. (the punch

company). I really really wanted to order their Mega Daisy, an awesome

punch, but Grace told me she wanted to retire and was not re-ordering

anything. One thing led to another, and pretty soon, I had agreed to

take over ALL her inventory in order to have the rights to the Daisy

shape.

Well, the truck showed up yesterday, and 5 of us (thank you dh, Cindy,

Blaine and Jonny) unloaded a 53ft semi truck FULL of punches. Now, I

don't know if you guys can even fathom what that entails.... but believe

me, all my neighbors are wondering what I am doing. I now have two 20'

shipping containers full of punches, and some very very sore muscles.



The first thing I need to do is take some of this inventory down to

manageable levels. I can't do this all at once, so ..... I'm doing this

ONE BITE AT A TIME.



In the coming weeks, I will be offering super punch specials at great

prices, unbelievable prices. The first such package is as follows:



--------PUNCH SUPER SPECIAL #1----------

to view the punches, go to: www.franticstamper.com/sal_page.htm

This special contains 6 MEGA size punches:

WAVING FLAG, TENT, FEATHER, CRAWLING BABY, TROPICAL FISH, CAROUSEL

HORSE

each of these punches retails for $15.00 a piece

You will also get 1 Jumbo TULIP, and 1 small LIPS punch

TOTAL retail value of this box is $104!!!! ------ yours

for just $25 + $8 shipping



the fine print:

$8 shipping is good for US addresses ONLY. Foreign addresses must

ask for a shipping quote. This box is HEAVY.

No substitutions!!! If you already have one or two of these,

consider the great bargain and give some away to friends.

No returns, refunds or exchanges.



Well, that's it..... help me take a bite out of my elephant!!!



Hugs,

Subject: RST! REPOST - COMM: ***punches -- I left the "e" out of the

URL***

Message-ID:



Apparently, I left the "e" out of the URL for the punch deal. Here is

the comm again with the correction:

Q: How do you eat an elephant?

A: One bite at a time.



When you read my little story, you will either think I am crazy, or that

I am NUTS!!!



Last week, I entered into an agreement with Nankong Ent. (the punch

company). I really really wanted to order their Mega Daisy, an awesome

punch, but Grace told me she wanted to retire and was not re-ordering

anything. One thing led to another, and pretty soon, I had agreed to

take over ALL her inventory in order to have the rights to the Daisy

shape.

Well, the truck showed up yesterday, and 5 of us (thank you dh, Cindy,

Blaine and Jonny) unloaded a 53ft semi truck FULL of punches. Now, I

don't know if you guys can even fathom what that entails.... but believe

me, all my neighbors are wondering what I am doing. I now have two 20'

shipping containers full of punches, and some very very sore muscles.



The first thing I need to do is take some of this inventory down to

manageable levels. I can't do this all at once, so ..... I'm doing this

ONE BITE AT A TIME.



In the coming weeks, I will be offering super punch specials at great

prices, unbelievable prices. The first such package is as follows:



--------PUNCH SUPER SPECIAL #1----------

to view the punches, go to: www.franticstamper.com/sale_page.htm

This special contains 6 MEGA size punches:

WAVING FLAG, TENT, FEATHER, CRAWLING BABY, TROPICAL FISH, CAROUSEL

HORSE

each of these punches retails for $15.00 a piece

You will also get 1 Jumbo TULIP, and 1 small LIPS punch

TOTAL retail value of this box is $104!!!! ------ yours

for just $25 + $8 shipping



the fine print:

$8 shipping is good for US addresses ONLY. Foreign addresses must

ask for a shipping quote. This box is HEAVY.

No substitutions!!! If you already have one or two of these,

consider the great bargain and give some away to friends.

No returns, refunds or exchanges.



Well, that's it..... help me take a bite out of my elephant!!!



Hugs,



-Fran the Frantic Stamper

Subject: RST! Semi-Tan: Charity crops

Message-ID:



One of my favorite people in the whole craft industry was Bernie Kraft, a

founder (with his family) of Sticker Planet. After his death from ALS,

(still so

unbelievable to all who knew him) the family decided to do something as a

fundraiser - Charity Crops. I've written about this before, but the

Chicago

TRIBUNE picked up their story and did such a nice article that I thought

I'd paste

it into an email for anyone who wants to get in on the activity.

Generous

prizes and a good cause.

Chicago TRIBUNE

Amy Eagle

April 20, 2005



"Crops" are to scrapbookers what "bees" are to quilters: opportunities to

enjoy a craft with other enthusiasts. Through the end of April,

scrapbooking

crops also can be a way to help a charity and win prizes from Los Angeles

scrapbooking supply company Sticker Planet.



Sticker Planet is holding a Charity Crop Challenge for ALS (amyotrophic

lateral sclerosis, also known as Lou Gehrig's disease), with 100 percent

of

the proceeds going to groups fighting the disease. The top fundraising

crop

will receive a $2,500 gift certificate from Sticker Planet; other prizes

also will be awarded.



The effort is expected to raise more than $30,000 by the April 30

deadline

for entries.



One of Sticker Planet's co-founders, Bernie Kraft, died of ALS in 2003.



His children, Hilary Kraft, 47, and Richard Kraft, 45, now run the

company.

They say their father would be very happy with the scrapbooking

community's

response to the Charity Crop Challenge.



"He would be just beaming," Hilary said.

Message-ID:



Gee, that got your attention, didn't it? The editors at CardMaker, the

magazine people have been buzzing about, were pleased when I told them

that the

Internet list I'm a member of has been saying good things about the

premier

issue. When I told them that we have a Topic of the Week each Friday and

that I'd

love to have some issues of the magazine to give as prizes - which will

also

let some people who haven't subscribed or seen it in a store yet get a

peek at

the publication - they stepped forward and generously sent me copies.



Barb Gibson's handling the Topic of the Week. Once she decides on a

topic

and how she'd like me to handle these prizes, I'll do some kind of

drawing or

whatever Barb wants me to do to select the people who will get the

magazines.

Maybe we can make it that everyone who posts about the topic by next

Wednesday

is in the drawing or something like that. I'd appreciate it if people

who

already have a copy would post, but not put themselves in the drawing so

the

sample copies go to only those people who do not have the magazine yet.

Subject: RST! Grandpa's Pearl of Wisdom

Message-ID:





*Grandpa's Pearls of Wisdom*



- Whether a man winds up with the nest egg or a goose egg depends a lot

on the

kind of chick he marries.



- Trouble in marriage often starts when a man gets so busy earnin' his

salt that

he forgets his sugar.



- Too many couples marry for better or for worse, but not for good.



- When a man marries a woman, they become one but the trouble starts when

they

try to decide which one.



- If a man has enough "horse sense" to treat his wife like a

thoroughbred, she

will never be an old nag.



- Judgin' from the specimens they pick for husbands, it's no wonder that

brides

often blush.



- On anniversaries the wise husband always forgets the past...but never

the

present.



- A foolish husband remarked to his wife: "Honey, you stick to the

washin',

ironin', cookin', and scrubbin'. No wife of mine is gonna work."



- The bonds of matrimony are a good investment only when the interest is

kept

up.



- Many girls like to marry a military man--he can cook, sew, make beds,

and is

in good health...and he's already used to taking orders.

Hi Barb

I have a possible topic of the week that I would like to throw at you if

you

don't mind. "When you buy unmounted's, do you prefer sheets, individual,

or

grab bags?" When I was a new stamper, I used to buy grab bags for the

value.

After about a year of that I realized that I was getting a lot of stamps

that I

didn't want mixed in with what I wanted. So I stopped buying grab bags

unless I

can see in them and see a number of stamps that I want.



I like to buy individual unmounted stamps where I can get what I am

paying for.

I have noticed that more and more companies are going to only offering

full

sheets of stamps. Sometimes I only want one image from the sheet and

can't see

paying $15. - $25. for the sheet and only getting one stamp that I want.

Most

times my stamping funds are somewhat limited so if I can't buy the one

stamp

that I want, that company loses my business.



I have tried selling the extra stamps, usually I don't have good luck

with that.

I have tried splitting sheets before purchase with friends but we usually

want

the same stamps. I have donated the extras to different places or traded

with

some friends. But in truth that is a lot of hassle for one stamp, so I

usually

just don't get it.

Anyway Barb, what do you think of this for a subject? Besides being a

topic it

might also let vendors know what we think and not single out anyone, as I

know

of a few on the list that have went to this policy.

Subject: RST! TOTW: unmounted stamps

Message-ID:



Thank you, Barb, for posting a TOTW and thank you to Pam for the idea.

I'm

so glad to get RST mail--



My favorite unmounted stamps are the ones from TAC (hi, Christina :). I

love that cushion that sticks to the rubber and adheres to the acrylic

mount, just until you peel it back off.



My second favorite way to use unmounted stamps--like the ones I have from

Phil--is the way I learned from Judi. Using strips of double stick

poster

tape on the acrylic mount. Then, just stick the red rubber to the tape.

The only reason that this is not my favorite way is that my acrylic mount

with this double stick tape gets lost on my stamping desk and things and

dust get stuck to it. When I'm being really good, I place the liner of

the

double stick tape on it to keep it clean. But, I'm not that good very

often.



Hope everyone is doing well & is doing some stamping. I need to stamp,

I'm

worrying about selling our house, and inspections and such instead!!

Subject: RST! TOTW: Unmounted stamps

Message-ID:



I got my first unmounted stamps as grab bags from Jim Stephan and Phil

Schloss. It was a good way to have a fun surprise arrive at the door.

Even though

there were a few I didn't end up using often (or in a couple of cases, at

all), the vast majority are wonderful images and phrases that I still use

six

years later.



As I began to get more unmounted stamps, I began to enjoy getting them by

the

sheet because that's been a good way to get stamps that were designed to

go

together (and that's what I try to do when I'm the one on the designing

end of

the process - put together lots of phrases or a variety of images that

can be

used together as well as with other stamps from a person's collection).

I

have also purchased them one at a time, but haven't ordered any grab bags

since

that first round. Most of the time if I'm buying one at a time it's at a

show

or at a store like Viva Las Vegastamps. I like picking them up -

something

very appealing about shopping that way...



If I only like one stamp on a sheet then the question of what to do with

the

others usually would mean I'd buy it only if I knew who to give the rest

to as

gifts, or who to buy the sheet with to share the cost (Jo and I have done

that - we usually do "one for me, one for you" till the images are

divided up).

But the minute it's two that I like, even if I didn't like the others it

would

mean that a stamp would be about $7-10, still less than a large mounted

image

- plus the extras available for other uses (or to fall in love with

later,

since first impressions can often mean that stamps of interest just need

a

little more time to sink into my brain).



But most of the time if I like one image on a sheet I'm going to like

several, maybe all of them. I just got the Addison sheet from Paperbag

Studios and

there's not a single one I won't use, though there were two that I had to

use

IMMEDIATELY... Even with the sheets I design, there are often favorites

that I

use constantly and others that get the back burner...



I think sheets of stamps are a bargain. Some sheets have dozens of

smaller

images, or a mix of large and small, and the cost ends up being less than

some

grab bags. I try to do that on my sheets of phrases - a lot of sayings

fit on

a sheet of stamps so that each one is well under a dollar.

We arrived in Denver two weeks ago on Sat. and on Sun. they had 24 inches

snow. So, we had not had much winter in St. George and figured we were

having

it all in one day.

Yesterday we moved on to Raton, NM and it has snowed all day... cloudy,

cold, gloomy aka stamp and read day...

We are going to goof off here for a week and then head to Durango. OHH

AAhhh... We get to ride a train... the Durango/Silverton Narrow Gauge.

There is

something about train rides I just LOVE...lol even in the rain.. Also

Mesa

Verde is over that way and we won't be too far from Paula. Sooooo just

maybe I

will be lucky enough to meet another fantastic RSTer.

How is it out there in RSTville??

Hi Toni (and all!!) :-)



Thanks for saying that. I personally prefer using

cushion (Toni mentioned the EZ mount cushion that

comes WITH the stamps); I know some people (Phil?)

just use double sided tape. Toni (and all) what if

you had an extra Xyron thing that you've already used,

and used it to store your 'sticky' blocks on? The

white part that you peeled your items off of? Or one

of the white papers that you peel off the EZ mount?



I've used without cushion in a pinch, but I much

prefer it, even though all my stamps (even the HALF

that are being retired!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!) are deeply

etched and good quality.



Thanks for the plug, Toni!

The sun did come out at the end of the afternoon, however. Tomorrow it's

Had some time yesterday to do a little shopping therapy. Found a whole

with embellishments like buttons and string. The pack I chose has four:

wishing that I was there with you, surprise, great job and always. Also

got

a pad of vellum stickers--theme is thank you and thinking of you.



Over at Hobby Lobby found some new embellishments labeled "spare parts."

Very reasonable prices on brads, clips and eyelets. I got 100 mini

square

had the screw top brads, too. Looks like "Spare Parts" is by the Paper

Studio.

Thank you ladies!

I was going to look up this company after reading Judi's email because a

friend in my stamp club

has several of the mounted stamps and I liked them but have never seen

them

at any conventions or

our local stores. Before I got a chance to look, Toni's email came in

with

the URL! The "Laugh" sheet is the

one that interests me, and I am even interested in most of it's images.

I'll have to wait a bit though because I

just dropped a bundle at the Adventures in Stamping Convention.

Subject: RST! Thank you LouAnn and Barb T.

Message-ID:



LouAnn's RAK has shadow stamps and flowers stamped with a rainbow pad

that

blends blue/purple, olive and gold (Ranger?) on a paler shade of gold

card

stock. She stamped the speckled envelope, from which I'm going to save

the under

sea cancelled stamp for a collage.



Barb's card, a thank you for the Sulyn Keepsake Pendant and confetti I'd

sent

her, is a purple lover's delight (and I'm a purple lover from way back).

An

allover pattern of the words Thank You in different languages stamped in

eggplant is topped with a blue/purple rectangle, then a lavender one with

a smaller

eggplant rectangle as the top layer. On that, the word THANKS! is

enhanced

with raised glitter (without picking at the card and possibly ruining it,

I

can't tell if it's stickers to which she added dimension, or what...do

tell,

Barb...). There is a strip of black velvet down the side. The card

arrived in a

lavender envelope patterned with swirling tendrils of gold leaves. While

I'm

into envelope recycling, I think I can get at least two cards' worth of

collage bits from the parts that don't have mailing and return address

labels.



Thank you both. I sure do love it when the mailman brings something

other

than bills.

If you order from Roben-Marie (Smith), please mention that you heard

about

the stamps from me if you think of it. I think she'd get a kick out of

knowing

that I talked about her sheets to my stamping friends.



I did an article for Scrapbooking & Beyond and used her Paperbag Studio

stamps combined with some of my Red Castle ones and she was really

wonderful to

work with. Her projects are in several of the TweetyJill books that I've

received to review. She's one talented designer all around. She

introduced me to

that publisher after I contacted her to get a catalogue and we started

chatting

on the phone.

TweetyJill is a publishing company. Their books are projects with how-to

I have about four books (recent ones). If there is a particular title

you're

Message-ID:



Wow, Judy, thanks for starting me off super early to celebrate my b'day

in May! ;-)

I love Oriental designs, so I've been enjoying admiring your card.

I rec'd it a couple days ago -- have been really busy cuz of our 75-80?

weather! :-)



Such purrfect Oriental paper you have. Great idea to glue it onto the

front of the card --

and placing the image of the Oriental-lady 'postage stamp' near the

center is terrific.

Then your larger black-embossed (with DTP) lady & butterfly (etc.)

postage stamp

placed at an angle in the lower right corner is ideal.



Also, that's a great way to use your cardmaking software program --

printing my Happy Birthday message & attaching it to the inside of the

card.



Thanks so much for the early-bird card, Judy.

It added an additional bright spot to my weekend

(in addition to our warm sunshine!) -- and I will

admire it for the next month! Purrrr.........

Judi,



The "thanks" was done with a stencil and embossing paste with glitter

sprinkled on it. In fact it was a demo on the Carol Duvall show this

morning. It was done on a scrapbook page to add a little dimension, but

not so much the page becomes too lumpy.



I bought the envelope. It came in a variety of colors with the same

vining pattern. Online special as I recall, probably a few years ago. I

am trying to use up some of this wonderful stuff I have purchased.

I don't think I've ever received a first day of issue stamp. And I love

the

new flower stamps :) It is even extra special since it was postmarked in

Chicago--Annie's city.



I love the way you decorated the envelope and I'm thinking that the

flowers

you stamped on there are probably hand carved. What a thoughtful,

thoughtful RAK.



Thank you.

Subject: RST! TOTW: Unmounted stamps

In-Reply-To:

Message-ID:



I still love the clear unmounted stamps. My ego is now taking a real hit.

I

really thought I'd invented clear unmounted stamps back in 98. I was

trying

to get the hang of producing the polymer stamps backed with substrate to

go

inside the pre-inked name and address stamps. I kept putting the

substrate

on the wrong side, and the result was that the polymer would peel off. I

got

frustrated and flung one accross the room (a small 4" x 6" sheet.) it hit

the side of the file cabinent and stuck. AHAHH! I ran to my stamp

cupboard

and got out the acrylic blocks. I was using a restickable glue stick to

attatch my stamps. Anyway, I then called the supplier and ordered the

polymer without any substrate. He asked why... I so excitedly explained

what

I was going to do. He said... The art stamp industry will never go for

it. I

just ignored him and went ahead to spend all kinds of money working out

the

kinds in type of polymers etc... and went almost blind and broke doing

it.

Then, I just figured you can't make it as a small shop without the funds

to

really advertise. Finally tired of ignoring the kids etc... I went out of

business. Guess what... Now everybody is coming out with clear unmounted

stamps! I see them in large chain stores etc...



I wonder if the guy who invented the zipper or velcro feels like this.

Subject: RST! ADMIN: SOTM Donation guidelines

Message-ID:



If you would like to be in the running for May's SOTM there is still

time!



All donations I receive through the end of the April will put you in the

running for May and until you are chosen! Your chance to be SOTM has

never been better!



What can you send?



Think about what YOU would like to receive!



New or gently used stamps, paper, embellishments, inks, tools..etc...or

cash for me to purchase items to fill in the boxes with needed items. I

am working with a few fabulous RST vendors who have graciously agreed to

let me purchase items at their cost for the SOTM program! I am hoping

more will be willing to help in that way - so if you are a vendor reading

this...please e-mail me if you can help in this way!



There is also a need for postage/packing expenses to keep the program

running - so donation of actual postage stamps or cash would be an easy

thing to donate!



Cash donations can be sent via snail mail - or if more convenient, can be

sent to my Paypal account: ruforgiven at comcast.net



The funds must come from a balance or checking account. I have a personal

account that does not accept payments funded from credit/debit cards.



Thanks for your support of the SOTM program!

Jamie :-)

Thanks Ditty!! I am sorry for taking FOREVER to get back to you!! I had

no

idea how much fan mail being on that show would generate!! (And orders

too!

- Yippee!!) It's been a hoot though and now I am only about 150 emails

behind! LOL!!



I have never done anything like this before so it was all new to me! Not

knowing what to expect, I wasn't really even nervous on the day of

taping!

The crew was FABULOUS!! There were four people that came that day (In

January). A camera man, a sound man, a producer and an assistant

producer.

They were all very nice, respectful and FUN! We had a grand time filming

for SEVEN HOURS to get my 12 minute segment done!! Sometimes they asked

me

to do and say things that were really out of character for me - -but it

was

all in the name of fun! The resulting show was actually a very accurate

representation of me and my personality and my space -- thank goodness

the

REALLY goofy stuff they made me do was left on the cutting room floor!!

LOL! (You only THOUGHT I was goofy in my cape and crown!!) ?



I watched the show last week for the first time along with everyone else.

I

took 20 of my closest friends to lunch in a sportsbar and we commandeered

the big screen for the show! It was so much fun!! After it was over, I

had

everyone put their name into the actual African box that I made for the

show. Then I drew one name out and gave the box to that person!

Needless

to say, she was thrilled!



The instructions are listed on the HGTV website -- if anyone is

interested!!

Darla,







I'm sure you don't want to hear this...but I have to say it. This

snowy

weather delights me. I know, easy for me to say that from our dry

Arizona

climate. But the areas you mentioned having snow are the areas we need

to

have an heavy snow mass so the spring melt will feed the rivers and

lakes.

We've had a lot of rain and snow in higher elevations this winter, but

it's

the snow mass in the Rocky Mountain States that really feeds into the

Colorado River and ultimately Lake Mead and Lake Powell. Lake Mead

level

increased approximately 15 feet this winter, but it has dropped since

Spring

began and we stated getting warmer temps.

Subject: RST! O/T: 2010 Olymics

Message-ID:



Well here in Vancouver the logo for the 2010 Olympics was chosen. A lot

of

graphic design companies entered and the one that was chosen is called

Inukshuk.

Some people are complaining that it does not represent the West Coast,

other say

if you turn the picture of the Ilanaaq upside down it looks like a bunny

on

snowboard.

Then there are some that like too.

Here is some information about it from our local Vancouver Province

newspaper.

Sorry I could not sent a picture of the Ilanaaq but attachments are not

allowed

on RST, we don't want to give Chris a nervous breakdown thinking viruses

are

invading his server do we? : (



Vancouver 2010:



Ilanaqq



For centuries, the Inuit people of Canada Arctic stacked rocks in human

form to

create the inukshuk, a guidepost that provided directions across the vast

horizons of the North. Over time, the inukshuk has become a symbol of

hope and

friendship, an eternal expression of the hospitality of a nation that

warmly

welcomes the world's people with open arms each day.



The emblem of the Vancouver 2010 Olympic Winter Games is a contemporary

interpretation of the inukshuk..

It is called "Illanaaq", which is the Inuit word for friend.

>From Nanavut to Newfoundland to Vancouver's English Bay, Ilanaaq offers

the

welcome of a nation shaped by our rich cultural and natural diversity, It

originates from a land of snow and ice, natural elements that are

celebrated

across Canada are also at the heart of the Olympic Winter Games.

It colour reflects those of both Canada and the host region - the blue

sea, sky

and Coast Mountains, the green forests, the red maple leaf and the golden

sunrises that paint the skyline and the snowcapped peaks from Vancouver

to

Whistler.



This is Ilanaaq - the Official Emblem of the Vancouver 2010 Olympic

Winter

Games. This is a symbol of Canada's Games - our friend who will help us

greet

the world in 2010/

summer

for the past 5 days. Sunny hot days, no sign of rain (is it on

vacation?),

people walking around wearing bathing suits and hitting the beaches. But

alas it

is soon to change, cloudy periods are predicted and in our region you see

clouds

then rain is soon to follow.

Oh well, bring on the liquid sunshine, at least it will fill the water

Subject: RST! PINK

References:

Message-ID:



Although Cincinnati doesn't have the cherry blossoms like Washington DC,

we do have a lot of flowering pink trees. Everything is very green here-

-so the contrast with the occasional pink or almost fuschia blossoms is

beautiful.



However, I've been living in the pink ever since I've had these two

girls--which is pretty much the last wonderful 26 years :) Pink rooms.

Pink tennis shoes (those were hard to find 26 years ago). Pink clothes.

Both of them went into an anti-pink rebellion in their early adolescence,

but are fully "in the pink" again now.



Judi, I'm sure that I've seen pink Birkenstocks. In fact, I think our

Sam's had some last year, but I was never lucky enough to find my size in

stock. I'm contemplating the pink sandals in the Target ad myself--but

since I'm holding myself to the one in, one out rule in my closet, I

can't really find a pair of sandals to get rid of.

Thinking of stamping, I'm sure I have at least eight pink stamp pads,

especially if I count magenta and my berry kaleidacolor!!

HI JUdy

I was at a wedding last Saturday and they filled the cathedral with

Cherry Blossoms!! Since we do not have Cherry Blossoms in the

Philippines they made branches and branches of them using paper! There

were fresh flower

decors as well but the CB stood out. Even the attendants' gowns were

handpainted with lt pink cherry blossoms. Coming from a tropical island

profuse with blooming colors of all kinds of flora, I am not too keen to

use artificial flowers on anything but this came out pretty good.

Hope you are doing well :o)

Subject: RST! PINK

In-Reply-To: 6667

Message-ID:



I thought my favorite color would be a good chance for me to jump back

into life on RST. Judi, as I type this, I am wearing my very favorite

PINK Birkenstocks -- the ones with the rhinestone buckle, and yes, I have

the requisite pink toenails to go with them. Just because a girl is

under the weather is no excuse to neglect her toenails -- especially when

she lives in Florida, where sandals are a year-round deal.



I love pink -- I love everything about pink! To me, it is just the

happiest color out there. My handbag of the moment is a big, bright pink

faux lizard skin tote that holds everything, my watch is pink, and

probably 50% of the tops in my closet are in the pink or purple family.

The other 50% are Elton concert t-shirts. Wearing pink near your face

just makes you look healthy and glowing, and since I'm a little pale

these days, I love the way pink helps.



Pink is all over my cardmaking, too. One of my favorite combos is hot

pink and black -- so retro, so 50's, so unbelievably cool.



Pink just totally rocks!



Love to all,

Judith

Subject: RST! Holy Cow Judi!

Message-ID:





Since it is payday today I picked up a copy of Scrapbook and Beyond which

I

don't buy every time it is published as it is very expensive. I got a

copy of

Scrapbook and Beyond ($7.99 Canadian) and Scrap and Stamp ($8.50

Canadian) and

checked out Judi's and Phil's articles. l.

Even if you don't scrapbook there are a lot of articles, ideas, reviews

and

columns that can transcend over to other art as well. And some of the

instructions come with the templates that are right in the foldout middle

section so you don't have to go looking all over the internet for it or

go buy a

template. Check out how busy Judi Kauffman has been writing for this

great

magazine and all the other great articles.



Page 12: "In the Studio": a replacement for Judi's "In the Aisles" column

and

allows you to take a peek at Judi's studio (a real nice picture of her

studio

but no Rudi laying there waiting for a play or walkie break). This month

explores symmetry, something I have problem with in my art work. By the

way Judi

who is the dog in "The Tomato Garden and Furry Friend?"



Page 18: "Check It Out": A regular column, Judi checks out all the new

stuff -

this week has information about the Pioneer Square Dual Edge Photo Glue

Stick,

Croppin' Companion,

Karen Foster Design, Wishblade Personal Media Cutter

(the way Judi describes the Wishblade makes you want to run out right

now and

buy one)



Page 22: "Stash Your Stuff": another regular column:

What products are available for storing your scrapbooking supplies, but

also can

be sued for storing stamping supplies too.



And other articles that can be also crossed over to stamping and other

art

projects are:



"The Tips and Techniques" column by Julie McGuffee shows you how to use

texture

plates in a variety of ways.

Computer Smart written by someone with the moniker PC Smart - "Scanning

with

Skill," helps over that scanning that "Help, I can't use my scanner to

scan my

art" by giving you some very great tips this month on scanning pictures

etc.

with different ways. Line art, cropping, grayscale etc.



"Summer Sunflowers" by Mary Ayres shows sunflower tags using photos of

sunflowers that can be used in either a scrapbook or on a card - just a

touch of

summer for your friends.



"Garden Journals, Bookmarks and Tags" by Barbara Greve - show you how to

make

just gorgeous journals and tags.

And she uses - - - used dryer sheets. You got to check this old it's

great!



Even if you don't scrapbook my bet is you will want to make a "Hinged

Butterfly

Journal" by Mary Ayres and if your getting married or you just want to

know how

to use gilding check out the "Gilded Wedding" article by Rebecca Baer.



Of course Phil has his column "Phil's Corner" in Scrapbook and Beyond too

and he

is in a party mood with his column "Summertime is Party Time that shows

how to

make Favor Boxes, Invitation and Envelopes using the Red Castle Fit It

CD



"Bridemaid Altered Book" by Paris Dukes is beyond belief and you don't

have to

be into doing Altered Books .



There is also a guide to all those chat abbreviations used on the

internet -

from A to M this month with N to Z to follow in the next issue.

Darla's dog is the star of the scrapbook page you mentioned, Barb.



I think it's a very good issue of Scrapbooking & Beyond, edited by Jane

Guthrie who thinks that magazines should be chock full of content with

plenty of

information (which is why there is a pattern pullout in addition to

really

specific step by step instructions for all projects).



Given how expensive it is there, I'm so excited to hear that it's a

magazine

you have decided to buy and that you enjoy it so much.



Mary Ayres's projects are always amazing and I look forward to seeing

what

she's up to!

Message-ID:



Good to know that pain hasn't kept you away, Judith! Seeing your email

address on screen this morning is a very good sign. Hmmm, now that Darla

has given

me the Birkenstock web site, I may have to invest in some of those

sandals.

I have two weddings to attend this summer and since I can't wear anything

but

flat shoes, they could be just the right addition to my wardrobe.



Pink and black together do evoke the nineteen-fifties. Wright's makes a

pink

and black poodle applique with pompom tail that's about nine inches high

(as

well as white and gray) and one time after I'd done some work for them

they

sent me half a dozen as part of my payment. I've got a denim jacket with

a Pack

of Poodles Prancing around the front and back.



I have to get out the pink embossing powder. Haven't had that out lately

-

just the gold and verdigris, which are the "reach for first" colors out

of

habit...

Subject: RST! paper flowers

Message-ID:



I wish we all could have seen the cherry blossoms you described, Marissa.

I

wonder how they were made. For my "sweet sixteen" party which was in

late

August two hundred years ago, we made white paper flowers to decorate all

of the

plants around the patio at my parents' house since at that time of the

summer

the bushes were green and nothing was in bloom except a few marigolds

that

survive the heat. The effect was really cool since the party was at

night and if

you didn't look too closely you thought they were real flowers. It took

weeks to make them all but only a few minutes to pull them off and toss

them out

(we couldn't leave them on since it would have been a messy disaster if

they

got rained on).



Speaking of paper flowers as a general topic: Does anyone in the group do

origami or make crepe paper flowers? Darla has done some amazing teabag

folding

and it resembles flowers. I've gotten some interesting origami books to

review for paper crafting magazines (both PaperWorks and Paper Creations)

and find

it to be relaxing as soon as I "get" a particular desing, but difficult

while

I'm practicing and working it out since it always looks like a mess

before it

turns into wonderful... I loved making crepe paper flowers as a kid -

the

really big ones that look like they were imported from Mexico. I loved

those

imported ones but they cost a lot, whereas crepe paper was a bargain. I

still

keep some crepe paper around just in case I get in the mood to make a

flower for

a gift box...I'll have to see if I can make itty bitty ones for a card or

the

top of a papier mache box.



Time to walk Rudy - Have a creative day everybody!

First Call for RAK requests for May 2005:



Here it is, my first call for RAK requests for May 2005. Deadline is May

2005 8th, 2005 for May 2005 RAK's.



It's time once again to gather up names of people who are in need of some

cheer. If you, or someone you know, is having

a hard time and could do with some cheerful mail, send me their names and

snail mail addresses and I'll be happy to put

them on the RAK list. The person to get the RAK could be a fellow

stamper, a friend, relative, neighbor, friend of a

friend, or yourself.



Being a web person, and a database person, I am going to try something a

little different for gathering names for RAK's.

I have created a webpage called "RST Email List RAK request form" on my

website - it is a hidden page, so the only way

you can get there is from this direct link

(http://www.littlebit.com/rak_request.htm). All you need to do is fill

out

the form and click SUBMIT.

OR



You can directly email me (judylp at littlebit.com) with your RAK request

(Please put RAK request in the subject line)



Which ever is easier for you is fine.



Your NEW RAK List Keeper



Judy "Dragonhome"



P.S. If you would like to be added to the list of people who send out

RAK's - email me with "ADD ME TO THE RAK SENDER

LIST" in the subject.

In-Reply-To: 6667

Message-ID:



Darla,



I LOVE that you remember that!! I am embarassed to say that my first

lipstick was probably either the very palest of pink, or even possibly

white. Remember white lipstick? It went along with HEAVY black

eyeliner, often with a line of white eyeliner above it, and skirts that

just barely covered the essentials. Sigh....we must of looked like

ghouls, only at the time we thought it was groovy. What can I say? It

was the Sixties. I was probably all of eleven, and sneaking the make-up

on once I left the house. My poor mother was horrified each and every

time she caught me -- which was often. My grandmother used to just shake

her head and remind my mother I was an "early bloomer". God love them

both -- they tried so hard, but I must still admit to a particular

fondness for black eyeliner.



At the same time when everyone was wearing the palest lipsticks and

nailpolishes, my Aunt Mary, who was only 40 or so at the time, clung to

her favorite shade, Cutex's "Cute Tomato", the brightest of reds. As

teenagers, we tortured the poor woman incessantly to give it up and

become more fashionable. She held onto her bright red, and what do you

know? It came back in fashion, and she was the one who was cool!



Hugs,

Judith

Subject: RST! COMM: ***Big grab box of exotic/handmade papers***

Message-ID:



I'm trying to weed out my handmade/imported paper stash, and it is HUGE.

I'm a paper slut.... and I can't resist ordering all these cool imported

papers, but then I don't have time to scan them to put on the website,

nor do I really have the space for them. So here they sit in BIG piles

and BIG rolls with no home to call their own.



It's time to sacrifice these and give them a good home, as they are doing

me no good just sitting there.



SOOOOO..... I'm making CUSTOM grab boxes for you as follows.



You choose:

SMALL BOX: 10 parent sheets (see description below) - retail over

$40.00 ---- SALE $25.00 + $6 shipping

MEDIUM BOX: 15 parent sheets - retail over $60.00 ----- SALE

$32.00 + $8 shipping

LARGE BOX: 25 parent sheets + many smaller sheets -- retail over

$100.00 ----- SALE $50.00 + $9 shipping

JUMBO BOX: 50 parent sheets + many smaller sheets --- retail over

$200.00 ----- SALE: $100.00 w/ FREE shipping





EXPLANATIONS:

-Parent Size - means the size that the sheets come from the

manufacturer. Often this is 20"x22" or larger.

-You can NOT choose specific patterns, but you can choose general

color families you prefer (example: blues, purples, browns, pinks, etc)

-Every sheet in your box will be DIFFERENT!! No duplicates!!

-There is VERY LITTLE (if any) mulberry paper.

-for the SMALL size box, the papers will be FOLDED....... for the

medium, large, and jumbo, the papers will be rolled.

-Shipping prices quoted above are for US addresses ONLY. Foreign

orders will need to be weighed for postage. In general, figure double

the shipping cost for foreign orders.

so I could get to see my fairy godmother!!! i wanted to scream to

everyone when i realized that except for the laundry woman i was alone in

the house - LOL Anyway the segment was old, I am sure, it showed you

doing a frame with a statue of liberty on it you collaged it with

geometric mirrors or something that looked like it. I kept murmuring to

myself, "that's Judi my friend!" You looked very pretty...I was expecting

judineedle to be schoolmarmy--i dunno why... maybe the needle part does

it for me LOL

In my country all HGTV segments are rerun from a prehistoric age. Some

shows even have Carol Duval struggling with her first rubber stamp, its

pathetic. I don't waste my time watching it but am I glad the tv was on

that day!!

I dunno how the paper cherry blossoms were made but it looked like either

crepe or japanese paper, very light pink and a shade of a darker pink,

they were attached to branches and the branches hung on the side walls of

the cathedral, arranged with fresh flowers and small lanterns.

well its back to the daily grind for me...even if you dont hear from me

often i am just here, we still have a month left of our summer season, i

might make a major trip next month but otherwise i will be at my craft

table, an area i dubbed as my

"scrapland yard."

Subject: RST! TOTW: Mothers and Mother's Day

Message-ID:



Gee, it's been a long time since I wrote a Topic of the Week -- let's

hope I remember how to do this! Many thanks to Judi and Barb for holding

down the fort while I was feeling somewhat less than fabulous. Well, ok,

I still feel somewhat less than fabulous, but I've got a month off before

the next round of chemo starts, and I want nothing more than to feel like

everything is "normal", so I've asked to pick this up again. So, here we

go....



With Mother's Day just a little over a week away, let's talk about Mom.

Is there ever anyone who appreciates your handmade artistic efforts more

than your Mom? From the time you were a little kid bringing home

crayoned pictures to your most elaborate efforts today, generally it's

Mom who loves it the most -- because YOU made it for her.



When you think about making cards for Mother's Day, do you generally go

the traditional route (pink and lacy with a flowery sentiment), or do you

zero in on some theme that is specific to her, or do you go for zany? If

you are a mom, what kind of cards do you prefer receiving? And yes, of

course, anything your child makes for you is perfect -- but what is YOUR

favorite??



Tell us about the very best Mother's Day card you ever made -- or

received.



My mom is gone five years now (can it possibly be that long??), and still

I miss her all the time. Sometimes, I literally have to remind myself

she's not here anymore. I was watching John Travolta being interviewed

the other day, and he started talking about my Uncle Gene, who was his

first acting coach in high school, and my very first reaction was to pick

up the phone and call her. Sometimes it takes a minute to realize that's

not possible anymore, and it's always a bit of a shock. I picked up the

phone and called my last surviving aunt instead, who's become my

"alternate" mom. If your mom isn't with you any longer, do you have

someone else in your life who fills in that role for you? Do you send

her a Mother's Day card? I've never sent one to my aunt before, but I

think I will this year. She loves to tell the story of a card she

received one year from one of her sons -- he was about eight at the time,

and he chose a card that said "For Someone Who's Been Like A Mother To

Me".....and gave it to her with all sincerity. We still laugh and

"awwwwwwww, how cute!" over that one, even though that son is now in his

mid-50's.



The topic is Mom and Mother's Day -- tell us what it makes you think of,

or about cards, or gifts, or even just funny or sweet stories -- and if

you feel so inclined, tell us what makes or made your mom so special.

I'll start. I know I've told this before, but my mom was not exactly

what you would call the "domestic" type. She was definitely more the

"princess" type, and my father gladly indulged her. Thank God for Geneva

who cooked for us and TV dinners and pizza delivery on her days off, or

we would have starved to death growing up. My parents used to go out

every Saturday night, and I used to love to lie on her bed and watch her

get ready for the big night out. She'd put on beautiful party dresses,

and high, high spiky heels, and the perfume and lipstick and powder all

mezmerized me. I wanted to grow up and be just as glamorous as I thought

she was. One year for Mother's Day, I thought I had found the perfect

gift for her. I must have been about 7 or 8, and in our local

Murphy's 5 & 10, I found a pink plastic pin that spelled out "MOTHER",

surrounded by big, white, plastic pearls. Being 7, I though it was

simply the most beautiful thing I had ever seen, and I proudly gave it to

her on that special day. Every following Saturday night, I'd eagerly ask

her if she was going to wear her pin, and God love her, she would

dutifully put it on and ooh and aaah over how it was just the perfect

finishing touch for her outfit. Little did I know it was coming off the

minute she left the house -- she'd often tell me the next day how the

ladies in their crowd admired it, and were jealous they didn't have

anything quite so beautiful I believed every word. I can still see her

standing there in front of her long mirror in one of her sparkly party

dresses, looking so young and so beautiful. It's my favorite way to

remember her.



Hugs,

Judith







I believe in love, it's all we got.

Holly sure has done some wonderful cards. I think that having a

Spotlight on

a Spotlight is especially intriguing and told her she ought to submit

that

one to Vamp Stamp News since there was an article on Spotlight Stamping

there a

while back and this is a new way to expand the idea.



I recently used flat glass marbles on the faces of the five friends in a

River City Rubber Works stamp and when I was looking for the glass pieces

I came

across some home-made accents that were done with Glossy Accents squeezed

out

onto Suze Weinberg's non-stick craft sheet and left to dry, then popped

off and

put away for later. They were too small for what I needed so I used the

glass as I'd planned, but now I think I'm going to make larger ones to

keep on

hand. Very inexpensive and easy.

Hmmm, how about hopping onto the spotlight topic? Anybody else

spotlighting

with color or using other variations? Or products like the glass marbles

or

resin stickers?



Is spotlighting open to a variety of definitions or just that one effect?

I've called it "Zoom Lens" and "Picking the Focal Point" in my drawing

classes,

as did my teachers before me, but calling it Spotlighting probably got

much of

its start in the stamping end of things with House Mouse in the Stampa

Rosa

days, though I'm happy to stand corrected if anyone remembers it other

places

prior to that.



Happy Weekend, everyone! If it rains I'm going to stamp all day

tomorrow.

If not, errands and the yard are going to occupy my time, I'm afraid.

Holly, your cards were awesome. I am jealous that you have been busy

with stamping. I am too but it is wedding invititations that I am

working on. I am over half way done, but am ready to do something

else. Then of course before too much longer, I will have to start on

the thank you cards!!!! The wedding is in July, so I do have some time

yet. I bought a candle yesterday, so I can decorate that with the

invitation.



I just found out last week that I had 6 cards published in the latest

Stampers Sampler Catch up issue. The first time I was published, they

informed me by mail. Now I don't get notified. In fact a friend who

works in a stamp store sent me an e-mail congratulating me on being

published. That's how I found out. Now I have gotten the magazine in

the mail.



Soon I'm hoping to be able to do some stamping for myself. But I need to

get the wedding stuff done and I still have some cards to design for

classes. One of these days......



Happy stamping,



denise

Denise, congratulations on having more of your cards published. I didn't

get that last catch up issue--but I will check them out in my friend's

copy.

You do such wonderful work, I'm glad that it is recognized.



It is such a special gift of yourself that you are giving to your

daughter

in making all of their invitations and thank yous. Also, all of the

other

things you are making for the wedding. Those are memories that will last

a

lifetime.



I was so pleased because our Katie was coming home for the weekend. She

said, "mom, I need five graduation cards. Can we make some cute ones??"

Altho, she was never greatly into stamping with me (beyond the Girl Scout

years), she did make handmade books for her friends at high school

graduation. She we are checking out school colors at the colleges from

which her friends are graduating. So, I've gotten to stamp and share

time

with my daughter :) What could be better??



Have a great weekend, everyone.

Helllloooooooo

We moved from Raton, NM to Taos, NM today and boy was that a drive...

meant

to be done in a very small car. The road was windy and narrow.. Happily

we

arrived safe and sound and are darn happy to be here...

Just thought I would check and see if any RSTers had special places not

listed in the tourist info that were must see or MUST SHOP...lol

We left in light snow from Raton where we saw the dead volcano and the

Whittington Center and Sugarite Canyon. There is just so much to see and

do no

matter where you go...

Sure hope you are all enjoying spring.. it is sunny but WINDY here so

will

be rocked to sleep tonight.,..lol

Have a fun one..

I
