It is as wonderful as the last issue. Has anyone gotten their copy of The Rubber Stamper yet?

I love them all, but I do have a wish list... maybe I'll get them up on my page so you can go there and see exactly what I have, and what I want. I also love DOTTIES DARLINGS, DOTS, and any other companies that carry cute country style stamps. The only RS magazine I have ever read or had my hands on is RSM, so am curious about the other's I hear about. I'm interested in owning that book everyone is talking about Styles in Stamping or whatever...looked for it at my Ben Franklins, but it wasn't there. Also tried a few book stores. No luck. I don't care for video's but would like some books on different techniques, but mailing books on making different style cards. For non-stamping related items, I collect Teddy Bears (mostly Boyd's, gund or russ), I collect postcards, and stickers. Also pins and magnets (store bought OR handmade). I love teas, candy ('specially chocolate), and anything else... For stamping items I'd like to get...mostly some more stamps, specialty papers, cardstock, confetti, stickers (Mrs. Grossman), stamp pads in various colors, and would love a pastel multi colored one, embossing powders, liquid applique, and anything else stamp related I forgot! :) and if you decide to do a small thing for my son again: hard candy, matchbox cars, he collects stamps (postage), and stickers. He's pretty easy, if it's fun he'll love it! :) Well, think my list is long enough, and I could probably keep on going, but I'll stop here. Hugs, and Thanks for being such a cool SS!

Then I tried Eudora, and I could see that it was the V-day message. So I waited until it had downloaded (which took half my life!) and stopped the rest of the messages until I had deleted this one. Believe me, after reading everyone else's experiences, y'think I'd actually download this sucker? Alas, Marsha Surad felt I'd be better off not making that decision for myself, so I got it UNSOLICITED. It's in cyberheaven now, though (or cyberhell...)

Maybe it was just a flicker, not a flame...I'm glad. You are all so nice to get to know, I'm enjoying myself immensely. In fact, a typical hubby remark will be (these days) "you're neglecting the house and the family for the Internet!" It isn't true - I wait until he's busy or out, and the kids are occupied (the baby sleeps a lot, and my older guy is just as happy when Mommy's doing her "work" to play or watch a video). I feel like I have a whole bunch of new friends, and I love it; I just didn't want anyone to think I bitch so easily - I don't, y'know! So thank you, Feathers, for putting my Flame in a different light (pun intended...), and hope we'll have lots more to discuss as the days go by.
