ah...January

Oh! I am so glad the hustle and bustle of the holidays are over. Of course, I'm not too excited about the bills!
I've been busy with getting NEW stamps released(see What's New on my website.. http://www.stacystamps.com/.
We had our largest Winterfest ever, 42 attended the winter stamp and scrapbook retreat sponsored by Stacy Rich (me) and Mindy Naylor(BFF), at the Oberlin in Oberlin, OH.
We had 12 classes,visiting teachers from NY, MI and OR.,plus our great teachers from Stamplistic.
This past weekend I was in Troy MI., at MY CRAFT ROOM, a lovely store that has tons of stuff for all crafters. If you stamp. scrap, knit, or bead this is the place to be!!!!
We had 2 classes and a make-n-take session. It was fun. Oh yes, and we sold lots of StacyStamps!
This Friday I head to Washington State to visit my daughter,Kimberly and her family.
I do plan a side trip to Portland, Or to visit Agi Werner, the owner and designer of the fabulous Paper Parachute line of stamps and papers.I'll also be visiting Cyn-sational Memories in Aberdeen, Wa.
I hope you have started your Valentines..it's around the corner.
Happy Stamping
