As an opening business special (which is good through February 28) I would like to offer a grab bag of 75 sheets of 8 1/2 x 11 cardstock for just $10.00 which includes priority shipping within the United States. Add $3.95 for delivery to Canada, Great Britain and Germany. Add $5.95 for delivery to Australia and New Zealand. (If you have questions about delivery to any other country I would be happy to let you know what the cost would be.) This is truly beautiful cardstock. The grab bag includes four different neutrals (perfect for Easter or Spring cards). Included are white embossed leather, pebblestone, oyster flecks, and cottonwood. All of these are textured or have flecks or specks of a variety of neutral colors throughout the cardstock. These are not plain ho-hum papers - they are all quite beautiful. All are 80 lb. cardstock except the pebblestone which is 65 lb. I know that you will be taking a leap of faith by placing an order with me since I am a new vendor. That is why I am offering such a special price on this paper. All I ask is that you please give me a chance to show you what a wonderful vendor I will be for you. This introductory offer is good through February 28. Remember the grab bags are just $10.00 per 75 sheet grab bag including priority shipping!

I type it here, in it's entirity, word for word... Enjoy ~~~ Angelhrt ************************************************************** The Origin Of The Strawberry As told by Rogers Clinch/Western Band Cherokee Back when there was just one man and one woman on earth, they began to argue, and the woman kept getting angrier and angrier and turned and walked away from her husband. For a time he tried calling her back, but she just totally ignored him and wouldn't look to the left or the right or up or down, just looked straight ahead and kept walking. They had done this for three days, and the man was following after her and getting very discouraged and his head was hanging down. And the woman in her anger still just kept walking as hard and as fast as she could. On the evening of the third day she was out on the horizon, and each of them camped where they were. Then on the fourth day, as the sun came up, the woman began her journey and was disappearing from sight when the one that we called Goodmind came down and spoke to the first man and asked him, "Does this woman walk in your soul?" In othe words, did he love her; we don't have that word. He said, "Oh yes, I wish that I could walk in her soul as she walks in mine." And Goodmind asked him, "Well, if she comes back to you, do you care for her so much that you'll never argue with her so hard that she'll run away from you like this again?" And the first man promised, "Oh yes." So Goodmind went ahead of the woman and began to plant all of the berry bushes that we know today but that up until then hadn't existed. Still she just ignored them and walked staight on. He began to plant along the path all the trees that bear fruit, like the cherry tree, the persimmon, the plum, and many others. Still she ignored them and wouldn't look to the left or right or up or down, just straight ahead and kept walking. So, finally, he went ahead of her and planted a big patch of strawberries in all stages of development. And as she walked along, in her anger, she began to step on these ripe strawberries and a good smell came up to her nostrils. She stopped and looked down, and she saw those beautiful red berries, the green leaves, and the white flowers, and she remembered that she hadn't eaten for three days. She was hungry, so she knelt down and she began to taste these berries, and she found that they were both bitter and sweet -- like life. She ate a few more. She looked over her shoulder, and way in the distance she could see her husband coming. She ate a few more and a longing began to grow in her heart to be with him. So she gathered up a handful of the berries and stood up and began to walk in his direction. And every once in a while she would take one of those berries and eat it as she walked along, and each time she did this she would go a little faster until finally she was running as hard and as fast as she could run. Her husband in the distance saw her coming and ran to meet her. As they stood face to face, and the woman looked in her hand and she only had one berry left. This she put in her husband's mouth. So it's because of the strawberry that all of us are in the world today. Strawberries are a reminder today, that we are suppose to love one another. If you look at a strawberry, you notice that the seeds are on the outside, and that's the way our love is suppose to be. So many people, they say they love someone, but they'll never show it. We're suppose to show our love. Even today, in a traditional Cherokee home, you'll find that the woman keeps a jar of fresh strawberries packed in honey. And if she ever has an arguement with her husband, she won't keep it going. She'll go to her kitchen and take down that jar of strawberries and begin to eat them while she cools down. And when she's calm enough, then she'll get up and she'll take one of those berries to her husband and put it in his mouth and remind him of the promise that first man made to Goodmind in the beginning.

I am a preschool teacher, with a son who is developmentally delayed, and there is NO way I could have predicted his problems nor is there anything in my training which equips me to handle this as a professional. You'd think that a teacher would know about kids, but when it comes to my own kids - my older son AND the baby - I know NOTHING. We are not objective...that's the bottom line. We can see things in other people's lives with the greatest ease of objectivity..but when it comes to OUR lives and OUR kids, we just don't see it. So do NOT blame yourself because of your training...you are just as much a victim as your daughter. Please try to relax this weekend and regroup...

I do not find the first application to be very effective but that could just be me. I preffer the dove blender because it cleans up better, the nib is replaceable and it is refillable. The tombow, well it is disposable! Both use a sort of glycerine type base and stays wet like and moveable for a few moments, a nice quality when working with marker color as long as you know it will not dry fast! Now with blenders for colored pencils you need something to break down the wax in order to blend the colors and that would be either the alcohol, xylene (peeeee-uuuu! but it works well, and is the one used for photo transferring)or a homemade q-tip and lighter fluid. Different animals....different uses. But then there is always room to improvise ;) Stamparoni "You can lead your mom to Spell-Check, but you cannot make her use it!" ~rantings of a 'Roni~ ______________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free Email at http://www.hotmail.com This message was from "Stamparoni *" - -- The rubberstampers mailing list is proudly sponsored by the Dueling Modems Arts & Crafts Forum.

I've been trying to get over a 2nd case of Bronchitis and that is the reason for the delay. I was born and raised in Willmar, MN (100 mi W of Minneapolis/St. Paul) - actually on a farm 7 mi south of Willmar. The 45th parallel and 90th (or 95th - whichever one cuts through MN - I don't have a map handy) longitude cross in one of our fields so I can always find home - even on a globe! At age 5.5 my one and only sister was born. We fought a lot. I think that span in ages is difficult. When she was in her terrible twos I was beginning my pre-adolesence need for privacy and space and when she got older all her friends wanted to spend time with me because I was the way neato Jr. High person or whatever. We had our problems but I love her dearly and am overjoyed that her and her best friend (Sophomore and Junior in H.S.) are going against the norm and going North to spend Spring Break with me in Grand Forks. I graduated H.S. in 1994 with highest honors (14th out of 320 or so) and went on to the Willmar community college with a free ride presidential scholarship and graduated from there in 1995 with honors as well received the MN Chancellor's Award for Outstanding Women in Mathematics, Science and Engineering. Fall of 1995 I moved to Grand Fork's ND and all the comforts of dorm life at the University of North Dakota. I began working at my current job on campus at the Regional Weather Information CEnter (RWIC) in Feb 1996 (Yes I just celebrated two years being employed in my field before graduating!). In April I will have successfully lived off campus for a year - excluding the five week hiatus spent at home with my parents after the wonderful flood last spring. I have 49 class days remaining until graduation. Following graduation I will be continuing my current job at RWIC and will start to plug away at my masters degree in the fall. May 10th I will be the bearer of a Bachelor of Science Degree in Atmospheric Science. On April 23 I wille receiving an award from Who's Who Among Students in American Universities and Colleges. In January I gave my first professional presentation at a nation conference of 3000+ meteorologists as well as had my paper published! I'm already working on my stuff for next year and may possibly have some journal articles published as well! Now, to my rubberstamping. It's hard to remeber when it was, but one Christmas my mom went to buy gift tages for presents at Hallmark and was astounded by their cost so, instead she purchased a ream of white cardstock, a couple christmas stamps and the colorbox christmas pigment pad and it was all downhill from there for me. I think it was about 7 years ago or so. I was never too serious about it until I move to GF though. My favorite stamping related pastime is collage. I make a lot of cards that only have one stamped element on them. My Grandma is my biggest fan. My cards get carried in her purse until they are only tatters. SHe loves to show her friends how crafty and thrifty her smart granddaughter is. She has yet to contribute to my addiction except by way of money that is to not be spent on rent etc. With classes and a 2/3 time job I don't get a large amount of stamping time, but I do my best. I haven't been in any swaps since Dennie's (?) Christmas in July. I don't do real well with the multiple card thing. I love this list and have been on it for nearly 2 years now. I think I first joined in July of 1996, but I did have a several month hiatus that fall. The technique I'd most like to learn is stampscapes, but I only own the lightning stamp and the tonal applicator. And, I've done best with that one by blending the colors directly on the stamp and using my stamp positioner to repeatedly stamp it in darker tones towards the outside without using the tonal applicator. My favorite technique that I recently learned is using the tombow blender - I Love it! It gives my stamp stuff a much more professional look to it. That technique is what has started me using more stamps in my collage work than before. My other hobbies include singing, piano, computer stuff of all sorts - html, games, photopainting etc., walking (when the weather is bearable), reading novels and just recenly scrapbooking. I also enjoy playing card games with my friends in the dorms, like pinochle, hearts, speed etc. Smiles and Hugs to all!
