Stampin' Up!dates August 2005


Hello from Beautiful Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada!  Our family is currently traveling the Pacific Northwest enjoying visits with family and friends along the way.  Our home away from home is the tent-trailer I bought for the family last christmas with my Stampin' Up! income.   I send this message via free wireless internet courtesy of the Capilano RV Park.  Gotta love that modern technology!  But things don't always work as planned and our server for my website is currently down until we arrive back home later this week.  If any of the links in this message don't work, try again friday!
