Boy oh boy have we added a TON of new things to the website over the past
two months! Just take a look at this tasty list of new things that we have

newsletter out. The good news is that it is finally out, the bad news is
that you have 5 whole days that the listed specials are good for (we start

you just gotta have, I would recommend you move on it as time is of the
essence.

Janet's Journal I
Simply JanetT Journaling Stamp Sheet
"I created this set as a "starter set" for journalers who prefer writing to
drawing/collaging in their journals, or who keep a separate written journal.
This is a basic set of useful rubber stamps, including a small stamp with
enough squares to use as a monthly calendar, and boxes you can use for small
snippets of text or as a "clustering" tool. Designed to make one feel a
little less intimidated by a fresh, blank page." - Janet Russell

Alex
(owned by Debra - OH)
My name is Alex and I live in Ohio. I love to check out my Mom's stamping
supplies, whenever I get a chance. Sometimes, I even take a thing or two and
hide it from her. It really does drive her crazy, when I do that!

Clancy
(owned by Brenda - OH)
Here is a picture of my Amazon Blue Front Parrot, Clancy, to add to your
group of pet pictures. He talks, loves to play, and cuddle. If you don't
mind the noise, parrots make great pets.

Buster
(owned by Sharon - VA)
This is my little Buster Brown. He's a handful, but he's loved despite his
naughty little habits - barking, nipping, etc. Lesson learned: One must
SOCIALIZE a Chihuahua as they have a tendency to be an aggressive (and
demanding) breed.
