Only the store I found is only a few miles from my house and poses a great threat to my marriage! Hee! I've been really frustrated lately with the lack of "good stuff" from the two craft stores in my area. Most only carry one line of stamps, and they're really picked over. So imagine my delight when I finally decided to take a chance and see if there was a real stamp store in the area, and there was! I could hardly keep from hyperventilating as I begged hubby to hurry up and put some pants on so he could drive me over! Once in the store, it about took a shoe horn to get me out! I drooled, I shook, I know I quit breathing several times and had to be patted on the back to start up again! Now every member of my family will be given a map and a detailed list for all holidays! : ) What I thought was funny was, the store is on the top floor of the local farmer's market and these women stuck their heads in the door. The one said to the other "See anything in here you want to look at?"... "Nope," was the reply. Hmm... there are some weird people out there aren't there? : D It's great to be able to share stories like this with others who understand. Although my husband tries to share my excitement, his eyes begin to get that familiar glazed look if I talk too long.

I'm sure I'm not the first to do this but had never seen any examples or samples anywhere. I wanted to stamp a single image so I colored the top with a clear embossing pen. Then embossed it with white EP. It took a long time to emboss and the rock got hot, a big duh :) After it was cool enough to touch I embossed my image (a CELTIC design :) in black. It turned out pretty cool, I'm going to do another one though before I give it away, now that I have a better idea what I'm doing. Has anyone else tried this, I would be interested to know how you did it and how you thought it turned out.

I'm signed up for a few swaps and will follow through on those. There have been some really good posts on the list regarding rubberstamping in the past, but I notice I haven't seen anything on TOTW in a couple of weeks now. I've really appreciated the response I've had to direct questions, it's been really helpful. For the small amount of hints and tips I've seen lately, the volume just isn't worth it. If there is a way of hearing about just the swaps, I'd love to have that info. So if someone knows how I can do this I would appreciate it if you could e-mail me privately.

Saw (and then thought of more) some wonderful Easter Card Ideas I thought you'd all enjoy. Easter Stamps are NOT required for these (optional and you could work in): *Use or create decorative paper (paste paper, emboss with design stamps all over some 2 inch scraps & color in with markers/pencils or just leave uncolored & embossed on your colored paper (you can even "over stamp" the embossed stamp designs to get really glittery design paper or just use your inkpads/markers and stamp and stamp over on scraps to make design/collage papers - make different scraps with different colors of embossing powder, use multiple colors embossing powder on the same scrap, use mulberry paper etc). *Cut out egg/oval shapes. 1 1/2 inch long is great if you want to layer your card. * PLAY* You may want to layer a similar shaped rectangle of interesting paper to the card first (about 3/4 inch smaller than the card is a nice size), arrange & layer about 3 eggs, *use real grass* with ribbon or thin strip of decorative paper OR glue small clump of *easter basket grass* (really thin it out) and glue some eggs on top of that OR cut out a *basket or bowl shape* from your decorative paper, use eggs and/or grass and layer/collage these together. You can also cut out bunnies on brown paper for the chocolate rabbit effect (I kinda like REALLY pretty eggs on interesting papers only, but that's me). * Make explosion card - place fold on left vertical and cut to large oval/egg shape, then make bottom flat (so whole card is egg shape, flat cut across bottom let's card "stand". * Make/use larger piece of decorative paper (how about the tissue/plastic combo used for envy's) and make whole large egg shaped card. * On all, put your Easter greeting on the inside or cover as you please. * As always, have fun! maggie - --------------53B714BB3F34-- ------------------------------ From: kduffie@envisionllc.com Date: Mon, 10 Feb 1997 11:23:10 -0500 Subject: LYNDA LUTZ Lynda, I just wanted you to know that I am holding the popcorn stamp for you.

My own impressions - pretty far from SF/Oakland. A large selection of stamps, paper etc. but the prices were no better than what I get in Seattle. Staff was very knowledgeable and friendly. The one thing they had that I had never seen, which delighted me, and I bought several, were little charms of a Egyptian pharoh head - perfect to go with my Egyptian images. I'd say this is definitely worth the trip if you are passing through the Walnut Creek area, and also if you don't have any big stamp stores in your local area (we have a ton of stamp stores here in the NW - I admit it - we're spoiled) but may not be worth a taxi ride from the city or from Oakland. If you go - eat lunch at nearby Max's Diner - the best deli food I've had outside of NY. I highly recommend the Flax store in SF recommended in another email - I've been there and their prices do beat anything I could get in Seattle - not alot of stamps but great paper etc.. Just my impressions. Thanks to everyone who gave me the "where to go in Oakland tips".

"Jury Nullification" comes to mind. The Jury has the duty to judge both the facts and the law. 'Twas to avoid tyranny as they had in Jolly Old England with the King. An example of jusry nullification was during "Prohibition" - those on trial for running liquor were found "not guilty" : Those on the jury refused to find a guilty verdict as they felt the law was unjust. You will not find a court which will tell the jury of their right of nullification: we are supposed to KNOW! what we can and cannot do. THe court will tell the jury that they "have to follow the judges instructions" and that is a bunch of horse hockey! ------------------------------ End of rubberstampers Digest V2 #187 ************************************ To subscribe to rubberstampers Digest, send the command: subscribe rubberstampers-digest in the body of a message to "majordomo@xmission.com".
