It was a nice pick me up after working all weekend long. Thanks for your thoughtfulness.

Great job everyone! And Linda, you are such a great hostess...the little "Thank Ewe" card is sweet! From Lori Nelson (Packrat414@aol.com): taupe colored card stock with a "dash & dot" border around the edge has three 1.5" squares of checkered paper layered on top (green/black, red/black, beige/black); over that is a cute country birdhouse mounted on pop-dots. A jute bow is glued onto the lower right corner. This is all layered onto a beige card. I can't do this card justice in my descriptions. It's very, very, very cute!!! Inside it says "Take Time To Enjoy Life's Simple Joys" From "Cindy": Green/beige checkered tissue paper with hand torn edges glued to a medium beige card. On top of that speckled off-white stock that has been crimped and stamped with a jar and some sunflowers in the jar. A jute bow glued to look like it is tied around the neck of the jar. Inside it says "Friends are flowers that never fade". Very nicely done. From Tracy Yamamoto: A sweet little bear peeking out of a blue jeans pocket layered on blue an white checkered paper. Stamped buttons mounted on foam tape in the lower right hand corner. All layered on a gray card. A sheer pink ribbon is laced through the side of the card. This is SUCH a sweet card! From Glenyce: Base is postcard-sized red cardstock. Glued to that is black and white checkered fabric, which has been layed at an angle and the corners cut off so the fabric stays within the borders of the red card. On top of the fabric is white cardstock stamped with various images (angel, notes, roses, heart, confetti and "You are on my mind today..."; stamped in red and black. This is also layed at an angle. I don't feel like I'm doing this card justice either! From Jaimee Givens: This card is real cute, too, and being from Texas I got a "kick" out of it. On a plain white card, red and white checkered paper is glued. On top of that a square piece of paper has been edged with pinkers and stamped (and embossd with a black glittery ep) on it is a chair sitting on a small rug with a cowboy hat hanging on the back of the chair and cowgirl boots laying on the floor. In the left hand top corner is a blue satin bow. Inside it says "Howdy". It also came with an envy: on the flap of the envy is some red & white checkered paper with Howdy stamped on it and two red star stickers on either side of that. I have such a hard time describing these cards. The are ALL wonderful. No one is better than the next. All are different and equally appealing. Thanks to everyone for doing such beautiful work.

You wake up at 3 a.m. to go to the bathroom and stop to check your e-mail on the way back to bed. 2. You get a tatoo that reads "This body best viewed with Netscape Navigator 1.1 or higher." 3. You name your children Eudora, Mozillia and Dotcom. 4. You turn off your modem and get this awful empty feeling, like you just pulled the plug on a loved one. 5. You spend half of the plane trip with your laptop on your lap...and your child in the overhead compartment. 6. You decide to stay in college for an additional year or two, just for the free Internet access. 7. You laugh at people with 9600-baud modems. 8. You start using smileys in your snail mail. 9. Your hard drive crashes. You haven't logged in for two hours. You start to twitch. You pick up the phone and manually dial your ISP's access number. You try to hum to communicate with the modem. ...And you succeed. 10. You find yourself typing "com" after every period when using a word processor.com 11. You refer to going to the bathroom as downloading. 12. You start introducing yourself as "JohnDoe at AOL dot com." 13. All of your friends have an @ in their names. 14. Your cat has its own home page. 15. You can't call your mother...she doesn't have a modem. 16. You check your mail. It says "no new messages." So you check it again. 17. Your phone bill comes to your doorstep in a box. 18. You don't know what sex three of your closest friends are, because they have neutral nicknames and you never bothered to ask. 19. You move into a new house and decide to Netscape before you landscape. 20. You tell the cab driver you live at "http://1000.edison.garden/house/brick.html." 21. You start tilting your head sideways to smile. - --------- End forwarded message ---------- This message was from holtanhpmn@juno.com (Helen/Paul/M/N D Holtan) - -- The rubberstampers mailing list is proudly sponsored by the Dueling Modems Arts & Crafts Forum.

Would this really work??? Hugs and Smiles :~) :^D Helen holtanhpmn@juno.com Savage,Mn.( suburb of Minneapolis/St. Paul) Keep the office hours sane! HOW TO KEEP A HEALTHY LEVEL OF INSANITY AT WORK 1. Page yourself over the intercom. (Don't disguise your voice) 2. Find out where your boss shops and buy exactly the same outfits. Always wear them one day after your boss does. (This is especially effective if your boss is a different gender than you are.) 3. Make up nicknames for all your coworkers and refer to them only by these names. "That's a good point, Sparky." "No I'm sorry I am going to have to disagree with you there, Chiachi." 4. Send email to the rest of the company telling them exactly what you are doing. For example, "If anyone needs me I will be in the bathroom." 5. "Hi-lite" your shoes. Tell people that you haven't lost your shoes since you did this. 6. While sitting are your desk, soak your fingers in "Palmolive" 7. Put up mosquito netting around your cubicle. 8. Put a chair facing a printer, sit there all day long and tell people you're waiting for your document. 9. Arrive at a meeting late, say you're sorry, but you didn't have time for lunch, and you're going to be nibbling during the meeting. During the meeting eat 5 entire raw potatoes. 10. Insist that your email address be "Zena_goddess_of_fire@companyname.com" 11. Every time someone asks you to do something, ask them if they want fries with that. 12. Send email to yourself engaging yourself in an intelligent debate about the direction of one of your company's products. Forward the mail to a co-worker and ask her to settle the disagreement. 13. Encourage your colleagues to join you in a little synchronized chair dancing. 14. Put your garbage can on your desk. Label it "IN." 15. Determine how many cups of coffee is "too many" 16. Develop an unnatural fear of staplers. 17.Decorate your office with pictures of Cindy Brady and Danny Partridge. Try to pass them off as your children. 18. For a relaxing break, get away from it all with a mask and snorkel in the fish tank. If no one notices, take out your snorkel and see how many you can catch in your mouth. 19. Put DECAF in the coffeemaker for 3 weeks.

I recently partipated in the 5-Hour Swap---and was *THRILLED* with the results. I asked Nancy if she was going to host another one--but she replied that she is booked up with swaps until after the 1st of the year......and indicated that I could host a similair swap. So..since I can't wait any longer........I propose a "WOW!" swap.....because that's what I said as I took out every card from the 5-hour swap..... Any theme -- no card can be too detailed or over-decorated. Come on in! Name of Swap: "WOW" Swap Format: Cards, Postcards, frames, projects, etc. Description: Cards must take 5-25 hours (to complete the set) and must include at least one gratuitous gewgaw, bauble or charm. Hosted By: Deni Johnson Email: denij@athenet.net Items Info: 5 for 5---if you send an extra for me--I'll include a "Jumping Jack Flash" card and pattern to you--it's a GREAT pop-up for all occasions--I learned it from a Judi-Kins rep at a class last spring Due Date: Postmarked October 30 Mailing Info: Nancy had said that the postage cost was over what she had anticipated--and I don't want to go broke mailing these back! Please send $3 to cover priority mailing back to you (The package I got back cost $3 and was huge). I suggest you use a LARGE padded mailer to send--and then I'll send it back to you in the same mailer--nice and secure--please include an address label for return mail.
