Hi Beate! I’ve been stalking your blog for quite some time now and am FINALLY returning to stamping after several years away. Your posts are great sources of inspiration, as I’m trying to get my mojo back! I also noticed that your family was once at Scott AFB. I’m a 20 year Defense Department employee, living in a St. Louis suburb and have just taken a job at Scott. Small world, huh? Thanks again for all your inspiration!
