I'll be taking this one back to Michael's to see if I can get store credit for it...its less than 4 months old...worth a try. So, would any of the vendors who have *in stock* the Milwaukie embossing gun please e-mail me with the price? I need it well, yesterday, cause I'm working on swap cards that are due, well, soon.

The temperature outside yesterday actually got two degrees above freezing, so a lot of people were out trying to take ice off their trees. The people who live on the south shore have been without power for a week now, and they reported on the news last night that it will likely be another 5 days before power can be restored in that area.

I have never used this it will be fun, Copper metal tape, 3 cats eyes,some really pretty handmade papers, a set of jute post cards (I love these) Some bath salts For the kids, My girls are excited! and recipes not for brownies but for rubber cement resist techniques.

I also ordered another sampler from them and they arrived on the same day!. Nice assortment of colors and textures as well, but these I will be able to use all year. They all came with some extra exotic papers and notecards. On a seperate note, I would just like to mention that Clarice went above and beyond, in my opinion, in handling my order. The end of the year was a busy time for them, and with so many specials they must have been going crazy trying to get them all packaged and shipped!. I want you all to know that she was so determined to get my question answered that she emailed me about 3 seperate times, and even CALLED me from HAWAII to make sure that I was satisfied. This wasn't a million dollar order, just a couple sample packs....but Clarice really cared. Thanks for the great service!

I also received one of her cards, with the Dead Mouse, on it. I LOVED it! I never expected to receive a RAK from you, dear one, and I have it up on the wall in my Workroom...to be a reminder to me of the Great Joys of the Unexpected, and a reminder that we can ALL have a Patron Saint somewhere. They don't ALL have to be Angels, to be granted Sainthood!!! They could be hiding around just any ol' corner.

I understand that Brenda sent her a stamp of a dead mouse that says Don't die in the house. Only Barb would be able to use a stamp like that & make a great card out of it. The card was filled with old sayings that she asked for a month ago. It was great!

Weilert) Subject: RS: COMM: Stamping Sensations Recently there has been alot of talk on the RS list about a couple non-angel companies that sell through demonstrators. Well, I figure, as a Stamping Sensations demonstrator, I've been sitting on my typing fingers long enough! Stamping Sensations is an ANGEL company that sells cute and country images. The prices are reasonabe (compare them to the other companies!), and the stamps are available unmounted at 1/2 the mounted price. They'll even put HALOS loop on the back for you for free! As a demonstrator I've found the company to be personable (they're small, comparatively speaking), and they are very generous with the use of their images in items to be sold and posted the internet, etc. Heck, they'd be happy to see your stuff (doesn't this sound like the way things ought to be?) They also encourage demonstrators to participate in craft fairs and conventions, with a stock of stamps on hand, if you so desire. Their demonstrator agreement was the easiest to work with, I thought, after investigating the two big demonstrator sales stamp companies. If I can send you more information on becoming a demonstrator, or if you'd like to purchase a Stamping Sensations catalog, please drop me an e-mail, and I'd be happy to help you out!
