Stamp Giveaway

A lovely friend from church passed on her stamping supplies to me and I'd love to pass some onto you! Sooo... who wants to play Pay It Forward with me?
  1. Take a look at these pics and if you'd like any of these stamps, send an email to me (go here to see my email address).

  2. Tell which you'd like and where I should send them.

  3. Put up a post on your blog, if you have one, and offer up some of your unloved craft supplies.

Feel free to send your readers here to grab up some of these stamps! I also have a few ink pads that I'll throw in (while supplies last).

Am I Overreacting?


Have you seen this ad for Southern Living? It says, "Today's Southern woman doesn't mind burning the candle at both ends. Especially if she's using her grandmother's candlesticks."
Really? With all that women do today, with the overwhelming majority of us feeling like we can never do it all, with most us finally learning the art of saying "No" as we get older... Really? I'm surprised that Southern Living is promoting a "do more" (read "you're not doing enough") mentality. I'm quite disappointed in them...
I composed the above paragraph in an email to Southern Living actually, but then I began to wonder, "Am I overreacting?" Do others feel this way or is it just me? What do you think? If a few of you comment that I'm not being overly sensitive and the message is downright weird, I'll send my complaint email.
Thanks for the feedback!
