Summer Excitement!

On Thursday August 20, 2009
we're having another
online class:

Quietfire Surprise

Monica Black (aka Blackcats) taught the most wonderful classes for me on the former Cyberstampers site.
And Yay! She's back - coerced out of "retirement"!

For this class she will be playing with some new things and reminding how effective some of the older techniques are!
(why Quietfire Surprise? - because even I'm not exactly sure what she'll pull out of her tophat!)

We'll have prizes and a class special.

Make sure you mark it on your calendar
and you are a member of the Quietfire Creations Forum.

Be in the chatroom at
7 p.m. Mountain Time
- that'd be 6 pm on the North American west coast and
9 pm on the East Coast

See you there!

I live in the Lexington, KY area and as you know this is 'horse' country. It's very beautiful here, lush, blue green grass, miles and miles of pristine white fences and some of the most beautiful horse farms one could ever see.

I'm a daughter, sister, wife, mother and grandmother. I have a cat "Maggie" [a Maine Coon] who rules the house. My husband is my biggest fan and is always there supporting me in whatever I do. I love to work in the yard, have numerous flower gardens, a pond and I LOVE to cook!

I am now retired, but during the entire time of my working career, I had a 'side' business of wallpapering. I LOVED what it could do to a room, it was like having a HUGE coloring book and freedom to change the entire look of a room. At that time I lived in the Charleston, SC area and many homes down that way are Victorian. People would allow me the freedom to 'pick' their paper so it would be consistent with the time period of their home. What an honor for me, such trust!!

I lost my younger daughter just 10 months ago, she was only 32 years old. I would love to send you a copy of a letter I wrote about her at her service, if you'd like to read it. I love and need to tell people about her and 'who' she was. She was such a 'special' daughter, in that she too was very spiritual and highly evolved. We shared so many things in life and it is those things that have helped me through my own grief and allowed me to move forward in my life. I know she is still with me, I feel her every day.

I'm such an intense and deep being and your stamps have found that far away place inside me that needed words to speak. I know I've told you many times just how much I love your stamps and I sincerely do. They hit a cord with me that is vital in allowing my creativeness to come out once again. I went through a long 'slump' shortly after Heather's passing. I couldn't work on cards or anything, I felt as though I was frozen in place if that makes sense. It was around that time that I found your stamps and web site ~ it truly got me moving again and I wanted to share that with you.

Thank you so much for sharing with us Sandi
Keep creating your beautiful cards!
