Hi stumpers!
I've been lurking on this group for about a year now and have been disappointed (until now) about all the ads that have been here and nothing from real stumpers. I started stamping several years ago (mostly from watching Carol Duval!) because I thought it would be a great way to send cards without spending so much money. Of course I was wrong about the money, but I do LOVE to stamp. I live in a little town in Georgia now (although I am a transplant - which is the Southern way of calling you a Yankee while trying not to be offensive) and there is nothing in the area for stumpers. (OK, there is one tiny little section of the local scrapbook store and there is a Michael's but...) I generally buy my stamps and supplies from the internet and get some really great deals that way. I only use unmounted stamps and am so happy to have 1000s of stamps that barely take up any room at all. I too have tons of paper and never tire of buying more - though I keep telling myself that I need to use what I have first. I was just curious if we could get anyone interested in being penpals. Not that the computer pictures aren't nice, but I would love to see some of the cards that other folks make and happily would send mine. I'm new enough to the area that I haven't been any stampers, so it would be fun to at least have some snail mail stamping buddies. Anyone up for card exchange? Glad to see real stampers on this list! Karen R. Brooks "Barbara Hass" wrote in message ... Welcome, Pat! Nice to meet you! I can identify with the paper collecting. For me it's not necessarily just paper, but office supplies in general, like Jeannette. I love the smell of an office supply store. I'm bummed about computers, because that's less of the neat office supplies that I need to use on a daily basis. Like you, stamping/cards have given me a good reason to keep all of my tools about! Welcome! Barbara Pat wrote: I've been lurking for a very long time, so I guess I need to join in too! My name is Patricia.. or Pat as most call me. I live in South Carolina now, but I spent my childhood in the Bronx, and most of my life in New Jersey. I'm not an expert rubberstamper by any means. To me, stamps are more a means than an end... you see, I have this problem... I'm a paper junkie! I love papers, handmade, machine made, brightly colored, plain white... you name it! Now, if I kept buying all those papers, and didn't do anything with them.. people might think I was... odd. So, I stamp!! And the papers turn into cards... collages... all sorts of things! Patricia |

Karen R. Brooks Karen, I'd be happy to do a card exchange with you. We can email off the ng and exchange snail mail addresses. Barbara |

Oh, I just realized that I typed stumpers instead of stampers. Oh well.
I live in Newnan, a little south west of Atlanta. We haven't been here very long so I'm unfamiliar with the rest of Georgia so far. Actually I don't mind not having stamping stores, the internet provides me with all of the goodies that I need. Karen "Cecelia" wrote in message news:VBPze.97760$gc6.29204@okepread04...
