Thanks so much to my sweet SSS for February's package! I got it last week, but have been so swamped and under the weather that I haven't had a chance to post yet. I have to say one thing though.....I do like confetti, BUT I like it best when it's contained in something or glued to something. This package had fetti flying all over the place! I had it all over me, my bed, the floor. My dog started to bark at it and then tried to eat it. All I could do was yell and try to get her out of my room. You might have thought it was a funny sight. Maybe it was, but I wasn't in the mood to deal with it. I cleaned most of it up and then carefully unpacked all the rest of the stuff. Got some neat bear stamps. (I LOVE BEARS) and purple cellophane wrapping paper that I'll think up of something to use it for. I got the premier issue of Sommerset Studio and I LOVE IT! Does that mean I'll be getting a subscription? (hint hint) :) I also got a bunch or these paper rope thingys. I don't know what they are or how to use them so maybe in my next box you can make me a card using it and showing me how to use them? Thanks! Got more paper paint which I love! I use it all the time and now I can't seem to find it any where. (I'm running low on silver glitter if ya want to get me more. I have tons of the others though) Thanks!!!! Hmmmmm....I'd doing this from memory and those are the things that stuck out. Oh....yea...I got some teddy bear and Pooh stickers too! :) Looked for some chocolate but didn't find any. Needed some cause I was PMSing BIG TIME this month! Anyway....this was a GREAT package and I LOVED everything except the loose confetti. Please spare me in future packages? Thanks! InkyPaws (Lisa) Ps...I'd like to write to you personally. Do you have one of those anonymous email addys that I can write to?

When I send credits this is what I try to do: I have a master sheet in my computer saved that says "Stamps used in Swap" with my name and screen name. Then I just use black ink and stamp all the stamps I used (often I make more than one kind of card, so everyone in the swap gets to see all the stamps I used) and then I write the company name underneath. Then I xerox enough for each card I send in. I haven't had any complaints. For the watercolor PC swap I just hosted, I typed up the participants' names and briefly described their PC, since some did not write their name on their cards. I sent the list out to all the swappers. > >Hi mona > >Sorry to post to everyone, but i'd like to say that I like your idea of typing >the stamp credits up separately.
