 Now why aren't all the Longs Drug Stores like this?? >>

I have never seen a Long's like this one.  It's incredible.  The buyer put a
sign over one of the aisles that says "Rubberstamp Heaven" and it's that.
 She has soooooooooooo much stuff at such good prices.  From so many
companies you wouldn't believe.  And I agree, why aren't more Longs like
that!!!!!

Subject: RS:  TAN  Linnzie gets blender thanks to Stamparella!

Wow,

The kindness and generosity of the list people is mindbogglng!

A short while ago, I posted asking where I could get in inexpensive
blender for papermaking.  Several people offered to look in thrift
shops, at garage sales and the like.

Stamparella <Patty Richie> was the first to contact me, and the other
day she E'd me that she had located one for $7.00!  When I just opened
my front door, guess what was sitting there.  Yep, my new used blender!

Big hugs to you Patty, and you have reaffirmed my faith in human
kindness!

Cheers and hugs,
Latex Linnzie

PS:   And the blender works!!!

Hi, to all of you who ordered the Milwaukee gun, they arrived today.  But,
as everything is going today, they shipped short.  Only one short, I will
be getting the missing one sometime late next week or the following week.
Is anybody  willing to wait a few weeks to get their gun?  I would
appreciate if you would let me know.  I am packing them up now and, except
for those I need addresses, they will be in the mail tomorrow.  Will let
you know what the price is.

Thanks,
Michelle/Grandma's Attic

Hi!

Sorry this is a couple days late, I have been under the weather the last two
days, yuck!  Thanks so much for the package . . .I received a beautiful
Stampendous Angel, Angel w/Dove, a stamp called token on love that is a hand
holding a rose,  a very useful chocolate inkit, an also useful pink chalk,
some very interesting homemade envys, some decorative beads, and some deep
dark cardstock.

Thanks so much, sorry this is brief, but I think I am going to go back to
the couch ;-) maybe if I whine enough Troy will break down and get dinner. :-)

TTYL,
April, blueyes

Subject: Re: RS: My visit with Giggles and Peter Pan

Sounds like a great time was had by all.  The squeaking cheese sounds
very interesting.  I'm wondering what happened to the peanut butter
fudge.  Oh well...could be worse.  Could have been a disaster with the
cheesecake and even I'd be crying.  Glad to hear that Giggles and Petie
act like teenagers in love.  My hubby and I have been married nearly
sixteen years and we still hold hands in public, kiss in the kitchen,
the dining room the laundry room...well...you get the picture and cuddle
on the couch to watch TV.  Did Giggles make you sit under the table when
you were naughty?

Subject: RS: TAN:Wheat Allergies?

Hello everyone,

I know this is a complete tan, but I thought I would ask you all about
this. You all are usually full of suggestions and comments about all sorts
of things. :-)

My doctor said that I might be allergic to wheat and/or gluten products. We
do have and use a breadmaker. I was just wondering if there is any one else
dealing with this? What sort of grains do you substitute for wheat? Do you
still make bread in the breadmaker with something else?

Comments and suggestions welcome.
Thanks so much,
Amanda Bristol

Subject: RS: Great Mail!

 Hi all,

I'm so excited to get my new stuff!

I received my first swap cards back today...it was the shell swap.  I'll
report back on them later, they were great!

I got some great halloween colored glossy paper from PaperPalette!  I can't
wait to try this stuff out.  Being a newbie, experimenting with everything
is so much fun.  Thanks Clarice!

I got a big box from Veronica at Rubber Stamped....oohh I love big boxes. It
included  100 of those fabulous vellum envelopes. Everyone who I send these
to just loves them.  In addition to the vellum, I got matte white, and my
first set of crystal clear envelops, scarecrow background paper, and
Halloween notecards.  Thanks for the extra glossy cards too!

Earlier in the week I receive some fun Halloween papers from Peggy the
Rubber Stamp Lady.

I get so excited going to the mailbox!

You'll all be hearing from me again real soon....although my kids say...
"mommy why don't you use up what you have before buying more?"  I can't help
it....it's too much fun!

Chow,
Michele

That is a great Idea.  I would not mind doing that at all.  But,  Before
I would do it I would want to make sure that no-one has any objections
to a list of this kind.  Thanks so much for suggesting it.

Hi Sheryl!

The mailman brought me a package from you today.  In it were those blades I

mounted on it.  A little snowman and a holly and berry.  This looks like
awesome stuff!  I'll just have to show it off at the next stamp club meeting!!

Thanks SO much!

My local stamp store has this class from time to time.  The owner/teacher
lets us stamp on the paper circles to our heart's content and then sends
them off to be made into plates.  For ten bucks, I get to play with her
stamps all evening and come out of it with two plates.  I made a
Thanksgiving theme one for cookies and a birthday theme one for birthday
cake.  Lots of fun!

Subject: RS: Stamps announcing adoption??

Hello!
My hubby and I got a call last night from his VERY excited sister who
wanted to tell us that they have been given the adoption referral they've
been waiting for!!  If all goes well, they are going to be adopting 2
children from Russia next month; a girl almost 1 yr old and a 2 1/2 year
old boy!!  They are thrilled beyond belief, needless to say!  Wow!  My
hubby and I both have one brother and one sister, and of the six of us
these will be the first kids in the family! Should I ask them to call me
"Aunt Barefoot"? <g>

Of course, any and all prayers and positive thoughts are more than
welcome right now, along with any info on companies that sell stamps that
would be appropriate for announcements.  I think this came up last year,
but I don't remember what was said.  I would love to make some cards for
them!  Help!!

Thanks, y'all!!

Subject: RS: anno's good mail

lessee.. told about the envy swap, yes?  was fun!

other day.. yesterday i guess it was!  I got Jhone's SSS box, and her SSS
sent *me* some um's!  way cool, huh?  cool ones too!  and I got halos!
lots and lots of halos.. 6 sizes, piles of fuzz, some grippy strips and an
inkpad from sheryl!  oh, and those kai scissors that cut rubber and fuzz
great but I still think they're uncomfortable.

and today, I got my order from AAS's buck a die sale.  I restrained myself
admirably I think, and didn't take advantage of 'em too bad.. cuz I felt
too guilty to!  I'd ordered some stuff from one of the earlier sales and
that order got filled.. and then couple weeks later it got filled again!
whoa!  so I e-'d wendy and said wendy, you need to have a talk with your
shipping department, they're filling orders twice!  and she said oops..
keep it!  and I said oh no.. I can't DO that.. but.. I could probably keep
it for half price.. and she said OK!  and I said add that on to my order
from this sale.. then I kept revising my must have's over and over.. it was
so tempting to clean 'em out of every huge die they have at a buck a pop!
but I weeded my gotta's down to 12.. and they weren't all huge either.
couple were even A ones.  rofl!  and one of 'em I had to have for my cootie
swap cards.. and told her that, and she slipped in an extra that goes just
perfect with that one too!  whatta deal!

and wednesday I guess it was, I got slug cards from Connie, and she stuck
in some samples of her homemade paper.  I tell ya, this gal can make some
paper, I was way amazed!  it's so nice and thick and sturdy and gorgeous
colors.. I wanna be just like Connie when I grow up!!

anno (you're gonna have to wait to hear 'bout her slug cards!)

Does anyone have a baseball/bat stamp?  I'd like to make a card for a new
guy friend, but I don't really want the stamp.  I'd be willing to trade
something for a few stamped images.  Let me know if you'd be willing, too.

Subject: RS: Quick Rust Ultra Steel question?

Have any of you tried this product. I bought a sheet and I understand
how to make it rust. What the instructions don't say is do you stamp
and cut it out before or after rusting? I would assume that you need
to use a permanent ink. Would Fabrico work if you heat set it? Any
help would be greatly appreciated.

My mail ran three hours late coming today, but when I
opened the door there was this package addressed to me:-)

I opened it to find two very cool stamps for envelopes,
a pretty ink pad, not one but two embossing powders...
background paper and handmade paper wrapped in ribbons.
I got a bag of wurthers candy...yummy....flavored coffee!!!(major yummy)
There was this very cool angel magnet that my daughter promptly
took away from me to put on the fridge ( she collects magnets)

and the very thoughtfulest gift was a pair of gold hoop earrings!!!!

I thank you for making my week a much brighter one:-)
All the best to you!!!!!!!!

Hi Gloria!

I got a check today from you and I'm not sure what it's
for.  Were you ordering a magazine or something.  I
probably has just slipped my mind, but I don't have any
messages sitting around here either.  Please refresh my

accident.  Sorry for the inconvenience.....Jill from
