TA DAH !!!
First, let me start by saying how awesome stamping people are!I always new it- this just reinforces it....When I had this 'overstock sale' idea, I was so excited about it that the 'downturn' in the economy hadn't been in the forefront of my mind....(not a whole lot of things can make it all the way up there...heheheh) I appreciate that $$ is hard to come by, and EXTRA $$ IS EVEN HARDER TO SCRAPE UP! That being said: 26 of you took the leap of faith and ordered anyway! ( and Kay R. is the 'secret contest' winner- be watching your mailbox Kay :) What I assumed would be a blessing to others, has blessed ME beyond measure. (That's the 'strange economics of grace' in a nutshell :) ) I was so encouraged by all of your emails and birthday wishes. (51! yikes) You gals rock ! ( and I can say gals because the men folks all passed on this opportunity...musta been out in the garage or something...) So our grand total for the month is $463.00 ! and I will 'round it up' to $500 and send a check out tomorrow to the Lutheran Church Missouri Synod Hurricane Relief Fund. I really can't thank you all enough...NOW GO GET STARTED ON THOSE CHRISTMAS CARDS!!! heheheh....P.S. I'm sure that if you all get to 'comparing' you'll find that almost everyone received a 'garden verse' stamp- I have no idea how I ended up with so many of those! P.S.S.- and you all probably think I can't count :) God Bless you as you stamp for Him :) Oh yeah- about the card- One of my personal H & S favorites! Most of my cards have some kind of 'fiber' attached- and I'm into 'tearing' these days...nothing really amazing about it but I like it :)

Sue - I'm so thankful! Thanks for sharing. Wow, $463...that means almost 1000 stamps...when you overstock you really overstock, huh! Thanks for the blessing you are to me - glad I could return a little blessing to you. Hugs!!

yeah- this is the first real sale I've had in 12 years! so some of the stuff was really stockpiled :) I have some breathing room in the filing drawers now....I promise I won't wait so long next time :) You bless me too <3
ReplyDeleteSue, that is great! Wish I could have done more...but it was just an "off" payweek for me...bills in every direction...LOL.
ReplyDeleteI will keep my eyes peeled for my new stash of stamps! Thanks again, and God bless!

ReplyDeleteI LOVE this card - so pretty, plus my daughter's name is "Autumn" so it's extra special!
