This has been by FAR the worst two weeks that I've been having!!! Tonight was no exception to a long line of disappointing, depressing days. I just came from a HORRIBLE meeting and now THIS! Please say it isn't so! I've been on this list since October or so. You guys have been my mentors, my conspirators and my source of information as well as inspiration. I can't imagine the list going down! I don't know what I'd do without this list. Like so many others, I also refuse to go to the big list. I came here because it was cozy, small and warm. I also will try to do what I can to save the list. I will talk to my provider and see what it would cost to keep it up and running. Maybe another provider can do it for less. I think it's wonderful that Mark is willing to take over the list and keep it going! Maybe, if we all try to pitch in, we can keep it up and running! I too would be willing to pay a small fee to continue getting the list. - -- Diana starlite@internet1.net http://www.internet1.net/~starlite/diana.html - - ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 19 Mar 1998 22:16:11 EST From: FranRShaw Subject: RubberTown: AD: COATED Matte White Cardstock I've got some coated matte white cardstock for sale.

I found a site that allows anyone to create a mailing list for free. There's no limit on the number of messages per day or anything. It can be moderated or unmoderated by the person creating the list. The reason it's free is that there are 3 lines maximum of advertising at the bottom of each email. Not much of a price for a free list! If anyone wants to check out the site, its: http://www.coollist.com/ Just another option and one that doesn't sound like it would be time consuming for anyone. - -- Impress of the Night - - ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 19 Mar 1998 22:34:01 EST From: FranRShaw Subject: RubberTown: Rubbertowners... don't miss great buys!!! Hi Rubbertowners! I'm sooo sorry to hear about the possible ill fate of this list. I know many of you enjoy receiving RS related mail, but wouldn't want to deal with the multitude of tangents and chit chat from the Rubberstampers List. I have a proposal for those of you who would like to be on *my* direct mailing list. This list would receive my ADs on a fairly regular basis (i.e. 1 or 2 times per "special"... or about 5-10 ad messages per week). I will also send out information on SWAPS that I am hosting, and a few tips here and there. If you are interested, please keep in mind that most of the posts would be my ads... but they would not too numerous. I post regularly to the RS list, so if you are on it, all this would be is duplicate information. E-mail me and please put FRAN in the subject line.

As ALWAYS - she's the perfect hostess -- enclosing the nicest card with the swap !! And returning the swap in such a prompt manner :-) Everyone was SO creative ! Here are descriptions of what I received (and as always, the text just doesn't do them justice !): From Jaimee (Olyvia29@aol.com): - --I'm so glad I got one from you girl !!-- On black cardstock, she's stamped stars in bronze & silver ... then has 2 geometric stars stamped with clear EP and then "colored" with the rub-ons. And she's added some way cool "doo-dads" behind the stars, along with white handmade paper. And along 2 of the edges, she's made a "border" of silver dots. Very awesome card Jaimee ! Put together nicely ! From Zonia Quero Ziada (Ziada@3-cities.com) - --I've been waiting to see your work !!-- On purple cardstock ... the most beautiful gypsie dancer stamped in a rainbow pad on vellum ... and then enhanced with a gold metallic pen - and rub-ons. And on the binding of the card, some very cool "doo-dads". Very beautiful card. I don't normally go for this type of image --- but I think you've changed my mind !! :-) Sandra Hampson (hampson@ctaz.com) - --As always, a creative stamper !!-- On pink cardstock, she stamped a marble pattern, then EPed it in verdigris. And then cut a portion of a border, placed it on the front (and center) of the card .. and enhanced the wallpaper with the rub-ons ! See, stamping isn't so difficult - as long as you're creative like Sandra !! Great job - and wonderful idea ! Val Kildaw (glenco@telusplanet.net) - --Glad to see more of your artwork, its been so long !!-- On red cardstock .. she used silver webbing ... and enhanced the corners with a fancy punch ... then cut out a heart shape using the holographic paper ... wrapped the bottom with a lace doiley (that's been enhanced with red & gold rub ons) and made a bouquet of flowers with silk flowers and a gold ribbon. In the upper corner she's stamped "LOVE". What a beautiful valentines' card this would make ! And so many different medias used ! I love it !!! Sandy Kavanagh (Kavanagh@unm.edu) - --I was sooo excited to see something from you again !!-- This is my favorite card of the bunch ! Its so well put together ... and as always, Sandy is one of the most creative stampers !! On butterscotch paper, she's stamped a background of all sorts of clocks and a hand holding some pocket watches. Then she added black courrugated paper (enhanced with rub ons) and a THEN added ontop of all that, a square of numbers that are stamped with amazing glaze (impressions) ... with rub-ons underneath them. I've got to scan this one when my scanner is connected again ... its so beautiful .. and only uses 2 colors -- the butterscotch and black (ink). GREAT work Sandy !!! You should be very proud of yourself. And of course .. the hostess with the MOSTEST ... Ant Judy ... has stamped a medallion using (I think) friendly plastic. It says "Hand Stamped Postage" ... and its so cute !!! And it looks sooo easy ? :-) Thanks again for hosting Judy -- Its been so long since I've been in a swap (I've been so busy hosting) ... it was nice to get something for "me" today ! :-) *** Lisa Wynn Stampher2@aol.com http://members.aol.com/stampher2/index.html - - ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 20 Mar 1998 00:56:41 EST From: CFerr54660 Subject: RubberTown: I had a wonderful birthday!

Pretzel salad is this: imagine a 9x13 pan, very deep. The bottom layer is made of crushed pretzels combined with sugar and butter and baked until it's firm. The next layer is cream cheese, whipped cream and sugar combined. The top layer is strawberry jello, loaded with cut-up strawberries. Chilled to perfection. I don't know why it's called a salad; this is obviously in the dessert category. I can't get enough!!!

(and more) Guess you've guessed that I have this plate... it arrived yesterday... and I spent last night trimming them (good therapy)... I *was* going to give the frogs to my sister (who collects them), but I think I'll just RAK her with cards instead. :-) Of course, I bought the plate for the fantasy images (dragon(s), cat w/ wings, fairy kneeling), but I ended up loving the rest of them too! Thanks Barbara! Barbara wrote: > > Fellow Stampers, > Creative Images has an entirely new plate of stamps for sale.

You can see through the mount so you can see exactly where you are stamping. You can also combine more than one stamp on a mount instead of stamping several individual images on a card. You put the loop side of the industrial strength Velcro on the back of the um. It has a sticky back so it is easy to put on. Then you just put the um on the acrylic mount and the Velcro holds it together. There are several people on the list that have expressed an interest but don't want to spend $20.00 for the starter kit of HALOS plus the $5.99 for the yard of loop tape and $15.00 for the Kai scissors without knowing they like the system first. So this got me to thinking that what people need is a trial kit that would be very inexpensive and still something useful if they find that HALOS aren't the way they want to go. So what I have to offer is a HALOS grabbag. It has a 1" x 1" acrylic mount with the hook tape already in the recessed grooves and 5 postage size ums that already have the industrial strength loop tape on them. All of this for $5.00 including shipping in U.S. Add $1.00 shipping to Canada and $2.00 shipping to Australia. The HALOS starter set does not have the 1" x 1" mount in it so if you decide you like the system there would be no duplication of mounts. The postage size ums include a dragon holding a heart, a blue bird getting ready to land, a butterfly in flight, a scarecrow in a frame looking at a sunflower, and a frog on a lily pad. For those of you that are already sold on the idea of HALOS I have a special for you too. Free shipping in U.S. when purchasing the HALOS starter set along with my UM Grabbag. You can see the image in my grabbag at http://www.kans.com/~stamps/plate.htm The HALOS starter set consists of four acrylic blocks. Sizes included are l.5" x l.5", 2" x 3.5", 2" x 6", and 3.5" x 4.5". Each set comes with 1/4 yd of 4" loop tape. The whole set of 4 and the tape is $20 (plus $3 shipping if purchased without the um grabbag). Additional tape is available for $5.99 per yard. A good pair of scissors is a must to cut through the rubber and industrial strength loop tape. KAI scissors are wonderful. They are actually scissors for trimming Bonsai trees. Stampers use them for cutting ums (unmounted rubber). They are very sharp and cut through rubber like it was butter. I sell the Kai scissors for $15.00 plus $1.00 shipping. Let me know if I can ever help you with anything! I accept Visa, MasterCard, Discover and checks.
