Hello from Denver! I’ve arrived safe & sound and we’ve already been to the "pyjama stamparama", where we made 5 great projects with 2 of our 3 new sets we received. Tomorrow is the first "official" day of the convention, the theme of which is "Dream Big" (hence the pyjama reference).
Big news for my site – you can now reach my blog by an easy to remember handle! Welcome to www.yamstamps.com Rather than having to type in the long title, you can now reach this site a little more easily (I hope!).
I hope to be able to have the chance to upload some photos in the next few days (free internet at the hotel!! yay!!). Tomorrow is my chance to walk on stage to commemorate my 5 years as a demonstrator. Thanks for your support of my business!!

…and happy new catalogue day as well! Just to let you know that the new fall-winter collection ’07 will be online as of noon(ish). Of course, I did forget to check if that’s eastern time zone or mountain….however, at some point, it will be there. Try not to drool too much on your keyboard. I think this link will work: fall-winter collection ’07
See you Sat 7 July for the open house & rubber garage sale 🙂

Yes, my demo copy of the fall-winter collection ’07 has arrived!! In true "typical me" fashion, however…there was drama associated with its arrival. News was flitting about that other demos were starting to get their copies, so I was anxiously stalking my super mailbox (you know, that red thing on legs, the mailbox condo). Anyway…. checked it twice yesterday, absolutely nothing in it. Not even junk mail. Hmmm Has the postie gone on vacation?? Checked it today….three times….(just wanted to be sure I hadn’t just missed the drop)….nothing. Trust me, it’s not that big a box, and I stuck my entire arm in there just to be sure. (I’m sure the neighbours were starting to talk). *sigh* Very disappointing. Hearing that demos in Toronto & Hamilton had their copies, I started to sulk. (and I wonder where my son gets it from, right?).
Anyway. After the school pickup and music lesson run, we return home. On a whim, I peek into the mailbox at my front door (the one that only collects flyers and the Burlington Post newspaper). WHAT??!!! IT’S CRAMMED FULL OF MAIL!!! And…..guess what’s on top?! MY CATALOGUE!!!! Happy Happy Happy day 🙂 I must have heard it calling me, don’t know what caused me to look. (OK, I do know. Desperation).
Finished D’s bug costume for the Grade I bug jamboree (I kid you not), and grab the catty to sit at soccer and look through it. Oh, and I did occasionally look up & cheer the team on 😉
Still waiting for my boxes (that’s right, plural) of customer catalogues to arrive….should be here in time for my open house & rubber garage sale Saturday July 7th. 10 am start. See you then!!!

Here’s the list of retiring accessories. Please note that quantities are limited, and are available only while supplies last. The list is colour coded – green=good availability, yellow=going quickly & red=no longer available. If you need anything, let me know now!
Also to let you know that the following items will be in the fall/winter collection, HOWEVER, will be in a different format – either in terms of quantity or colours. These are: select single colour selections of 12 x 12 cardstock; confetti white & kraft teeny tiny take out boxes & tags; select embossing powder colours; select 1/4" grosgrain ribbon colours, and the corner rounder punch. Unfortunately I can’t give you specifics (since I don’t know them!)….but keep this in mind when going over the list.
The other exciting news is that my order of new catalogues has been shipped & is starting to make its way here to Burlington!! Can’t wait!
