This is what kept me going making the pile of cards I shared in the previoius mailbox post. The hand stamped greeting cards are now zipping through the postal system! I’ve got my St. Isidore’s cheddar from Inga @aroundthefarmtable, last of the season fall apple, pistachios, Utz pretzels and an almond flavored cupcake. A festive luncheon plate always makes me think about my Grandma hosting the ladies for afternoon card games and tea.
What are your favorite snacks while stamping? Add a comment below. Maybe we share some of the same favorites:) Or I’ll find new favorites from your suggestions. Yummo!

I composed this short poem as my day was wrapping up yesterday and shared it in the One of a Kind Facebook group. Since it was the last thing I did, I forgot I could share it on my blog too:)
“Twas the Night Before Stamp Saturday,” an original poem composed by Shirley Merker, Super Awesome Stamper
Twas the night before Stamp Saturday, and all through the house,
the dust bunnies were not scared, in fact, they were going to a Ball.
A Ball you say? An in-person event? No, not quite.
This Ball requires a clear stamp space with ink pads, markers and stamps lined up.
Ready for the next demonstration? You got that right!
Snacks on the side, with the dust bunnies keeping company way in the back.
We are ready for Stamp Saturday, now I bid you a Good Night!
Stamp Saturday is here will my presentation at 2pm central time in the One of a Kind Virtual Event Facebook group. Join the group to see my video and the scrappy strip technique demonstrated. I’ll share assembly tips on the other designs too as time allows. I’ll be sharing in depth how to videos in the coming days on my business Facebook page as well. Search for Super Awesome Stamper Shirley Merker and you have found me.
