So far you have faced no trial beyond what man can bear. God keeps faith, and He
will not allow you to be tested above your powers; but when the test comes He
will at the same time, provide a way out, by enabling you to sustain it.

Hi Everyone,
Spoke to Linda about an hour ago.
Nothing much new to report. She continued her wild affair with John the
entire night. Doctor was there a little before we spoke and gave her
something for the nausea which hopefully now means she will be able to
sleep.
I will be checking on her later this afternoon/early evening and will let
everyone know.
Now it's time for me to go out and beat the bushes for a job. Any of you
San Diego area folks need a good salesman/credit manager/I'm a quick
learner and could do just about anything employee?
Type at you all later.

Subject: RS catalog review:Keyhole
Cool cool cool!! One of the best things about the new Rubberstamper
magazine is the reader service card, and the best thing to come back from
that to me was the Keyhole catalog.
This is an unusual, beautifully produced catalog of unmounteds.
She has great phrases (a few of which I absolutely can't live without),
fantastic stamps of women, all kinds of unique patterns, hands making shadow
pictures, and a
good amount of knotwork for you Celt-o-philes (I know you are out there!)
There aren't really any "Cute" designs.
She is an angel company.
She also gives instructions on mounting stamps, and sells scissors to make
this easier.
Grab bags are 20 dies for $10.
The best thing about this catalog is that you get a free sample unmounted
die of a Keyhole!
Her address is 3915 Mission Ave #7614, Oceanside CA 92054-7801

Subject: Re: RS: Pros posed Saying Swap
If I was making these, I'd make the O in "I always make time for you" to be
a tennis ball. And probably print it rather than make it in a stamp,
because it won't be as useful to most with the tennis ball O.

Subject: Re: RS: Sentiments for anonymous cards?
I usually sign those "a friend of..." with whoever requested it at the end.
I think partly to reassure them they aren't being set up with anonymous
whatever for a scam. And partly because usually the friend will do payback
in some way (sooner or later) and they deserve the thanks.
And mainly because I can't think of any other way to do it.

Hi all,
I am back on the list. I missed you guys. My mailbox was soooo empty.
For those participants in the Webbing Spray Swap, I should be getting those
cards out to you within the next week. Thank you for your patience and I'm
really sorry about the delay.
For those participants in the Rainbow and Clouds Swap, Precious Moments
Swap, and Chalk Swap I hope you all received your cards safely.
Thank you all for participating in my swaps. Again, I'm really sorry about
the delay.
Thanks a bunch,
Melissa

Subject: Re: RS: Who can host a swap?
Hi Shellie! CajunStamper will tell you that I'm the utmost authority on
rules and regs....which she ignored and made oval shaped conventin pins
anyway. To host a swap you must be nominated by a group of your peers.
Your nomination will then go to a general vote at which you must be elected
by unanimous decision to hold this prestigious position...which would be
more impressive if I could spell it right. Should you fall short of your
hosting responsibilities in any way and by anyone's standard, you will be
skewered, placed on a rotisserie, and flamed beyond recognition. Any
questions?
Or...you could just ignore everything I just said, dive in head first and
buck naked and give it a shot!

Subject: RS: Plain & Simple Swap Received
I received the Plain & Simple Postcard Swap in the mail from delightful host
StampinSis!
Every "simply stamped" postcard I received was entirely different and gave me
new inspiration in the use of color.
StampinSis' large pink valentine, (almost like a big box of candy!), was
stamped in a delicate darker pink and silvery sparkle EP and was layered on
burgundy with the scalloped edges repeated on the outer edges of the cut-out
image and the Victorian cut corners of the card. So very sweet!
Pamela Moore used a large maple leaf stamped in pure green repeatedly on
bright white paper layered onto bright yellow cardstock. The crisp feeling of
the card is emphasized by the pinked edges on both papers - well planned & so
effective!
Ginger Tapia used a large image of a lovely pensive fairy on a mushroom. The
cardstock is a subtle lavender (flecked with different fibers - I can't really
describe it...) and the fairy is embossed in a darker lavender - very pretty
monochromatic effect!
An unsigned card featured a heart-shaped roses & ribbons wreath on a lightly
speckled cream cardstock. The wreath was embossed in red sparkle (hot!!) and
the ribbons colored a bright pink. It practically screams "be mine!"!!
Stampcas sent a passionately kissing couple stamped in tobacco-brown on a
decoratively-edged brown paper layered at a slight angle on white cardstock -
the angle and the edging definitely sustains the emotion!!
Thanks to all for the most beguiling cards!

The consensus seems to be:
rubber cement
YES Glue
