I've finally taken the plunge into blogging!  Check out my blog at stampaction.typepad.com.  My blog is named "Stamp Action" because stamping is as fresh and exciting today as it was when I started over a decade ago.  New tools, new designs and new techniques are emerging all the time and I hope I can capture some of the excitement and enthusiasm I have for stamping in my blog.

    The artwork I stamped for the banner is all about time which is in short supply for all of us. I hesitated to start a blog because I didn't want to do it if I didn't do it well.  However as I have found with many things in life, the first step of any new journey is the hardest to take. Once I got the basic framework of the blog set-up (which involved a few grumbles and gripes!), I am finding that updating the blog is fairly easy.  Of course, I am still learning the tricks of blogging so bear with me!

     I want to use the blog to tell you about activities at the store; share stamping tips, tricks and techniques; and keep you informed of new products.  Please check it out and let me know what you think!
