Getting ready for Banana day!

I was looking for my banana stamp and came across my old rubber stamping book. Many times I've pulled this off of my shelf thinking I'd get rid of it, then I look through it and am reminded of the wonderful-ness of rubber stamping. The book is full of history and examples of artists' work, and more. I'm going to…

Karl Anderson's a good source who I've used for several orders over the past few years.

His current list and very detailed information on requirements for ordering from him are found at:

Currently, he is selling mint US 3-cent stamps from the 1940's-50's for very little over face value.

For my birthday this year, we made a day trip by train, to Washington, D.C. for another visit to the National Postal Museum.  The museum is right across the street from the train station, how convenient for us.  There is a terrific gallery of stamps on the mail floor and on the lower level are displays relating to the postal service, interactive stuff, a post office…

I am always happy to receive mail art from Eduardo!…

I found the super blotter thingy at an antique shop. It's copper on the top & it took a bit but we figured out how to put clean blotter paper on it. I just happened to have some. It's so useful with my new fountain pen (a lovely Lamy Nexx) and also with rubber…

Great stamped envelope and add-and-pass-on-printed-matter from Ruud!



I always wonder how Ruud succeeds in printing his stamps so well: you can see that all stamps are colouring completely!. While mine almost always leave some white (and when I try to solve it by using more  ink, there appear extra spots :-) ) !

Thank you very much, hartelijk dank,…

CZ, my apologies for holding on to this for so long! I added the phone dial and sun stamping to your Add & Pass and have returned it directly to you so you can send it along if you choose to do so.

And on the envelope some great stamps...always get a kick out of the spam(always green) and am loving the guys, Mr Fly and of course 4 eyes.  Are the slides a stamps too???  Thanks for another great one Cayte!!!…

So what a joy it was to receive this parcel from her. I like the new Blessed Father rubber stamp she used. AND WILL YOU JUST LOOK AT THOSE WIENERS. 

Let me diverge a bit here...

I just LOVE L-O-V-E dachshunds and this is perfect. Here are my two favorite laddies, or at least up until a year ago. The black dachshund, Daisy passed…
