Hi Kem!

I don't have any canceled stamps, but I thought I'd mention that there are some beautiful "canceled stamp" rubber and acrylic stamps out there. I have a couple of Christmas ones, as well as others with different travel themes. You can always use different ink colors to suit your writing mood, and they can be left plain or colored them in, if you like! :) I like to make "fake" canceled stamps and distress them for my projects... Maybe that would be a good last resort, if you can't find the real ones?

I hope you find what you're looking for! What are you planning to do with your stamps?

Hugs -

Nini, Nice to hear from you. A friend and I are going to do journals on paper bags. I want stamps to embellish some of the pages. I have a lot of stamps because I make greeting cards. I think maybe I have one stamp that is a stamp, going to have to look.
How is the solar cooker doing? We have had a lot of rain, so I have not used mine much this past month.

Kem, I received your handmade cards today! They are lovely! Thank you. Would love to see your completed journals! I didn't mean to be a mystery...the stamps were already in envelopes just waiting to be mailed to anyone who wanted them.

Judith, the mystery was not a problem just wanted to thank the right person. The stamps will be fun. I will try to post pics later after we have a get together to make journals. It should be a lot of fun, I have tons to share with my friends. Thanks again!
