Getting to Know You!! THROUGH YOUR FAVOURITE BOOK!

Good Morning Stampers (Or Digi Crafters if you prefer)!

Can I ask everyone check the RULES before they begin their project for this challenge!

Sad News!
"I have some sad news today and I want to get it out of the way!
I have decided to step down and leave Stampin' in the capeable hands of Sandie, Jan and the rest of the team. Between Sandie and Jan they hope to keep Stampin' for the Weekend running. They will no doubt get lots of help from the talented team that makes up Stampin' for the Weekend, just as I did.
It was a hard decision to make, but presently I can not give the blog my full and undivided attention as I have done in the past. My daughter broke her arm on Monday and then on Tuesday I got the news that I have to go for more surgery in June. 
So farewell to all you lovely supporters. I wish you well, and hope you continue to join in with the team as often as you can!
I've loved my time with Stampin' and its going to leave a huge hole, which I am sure over time will mend itself.
I wish the team good luck in all they wish to do, and that they enjoy bringing joy and challenges to you every other Friday!
I'm sure there will be big changes for Stampin' and I'm sure they will all be for the better!"

  5. Hi Kimmi

    I was going to mail you, but so organised am I that I was confess I am not sure which addy is yours on my list !

    Anyhow, I am really sorry to hear you are leaving SFTW, it was your baby and I know your decision must have been a very difficult one to make. All your hard working it setting it up is appreciated by so many of us in blogland as is evidenced by the fact that more than a year on SFTW is stronger than ever.

    I remember you starting as I was new to blogging then and applied to the first DT call. Seems like an age ago now and like so any of us becaue totally hooked.

    I am sure the other teamies will do a great job and who knows, we might see you back some time, I hope so.

    I am also sorry to hear your little girl broke her arm and also that you have more problems yourself. Life can be very cruel sometimes, but I sincerely hope things improve and send you my love and warm wished that things sort themselves out.
