Qs & As, Tagged, and a Card

A few answers to some questions posted here and through emails and private messages on SCS (I'm Joan B over there)! 1. I don't have a way for someone to get an email when I post something new on this rockin' and rolling blog of mine. I tried feedblitz but was bombarded with complaints. I'm not computer literate, especially since we have a MAC. I am truly touched that anyone would ask about this. Does anyone know of any other email service I could use (free, natch!). As a blog reader, I use Google Reader, but some of my readers prefer to get an email. 2. I am not familiar with Georgia Pacific and whether it is "smooth" -- but you can judge the smoothness by just running your hand over it or even tearing it. What I call smooth has some type of coating or special ink that isn't like regular SU colored cardstock, for example. SU's colored cardstock -- and I LOVE it -- just isn't the same as SU's Whisper White. Why can't I explain this better?? 3. No, I do not keep my SCS gallery up to date. I have enough trouble squeezing in stamping and blogging and browsing and shopping that I rarely take the time to post cards in both places. Although, for some reason (perhaps because I am home all week) today I posted my Dancing, Just Because card on SCS. 4. Yes, I really am a lawyer (why would I lie about THAT?). TAGGED I've been tagged several times -- as a Rockin' Blogger and as a Blogger That Makes You Think. Thank You Very Much!! Isn't that sweet? I'm going to pass on tagging others as I'm sure almost every blog I visited has been tagged and I can't figure out how to get the Blogger Tag buttons on my blog anyway! I'm touched that anyone thinks I'm rocking or that I make anyone "think." In fact, stamping and thinking = bad combo sometimes!! LOL And, now the Card. As my teenage son would say -- Meh. Not wild about the card, but I just love this Memory Box Beach paper, and these stamps (popsicle from SU's retired Sparkling Summer and the words from a clear Stampendous set). I could not get this card to rock or think or anything else but I made it so I'm owning up to it! Oooh -- gotta go. Completely forgot about dinner!

  1. I can just taste those Popsicles. Love the lime flavor and this got it across. I know what it is to forget that dinner must be made. I told hubby tonight to let me know when he wanted dinner. He told me just as I was cutting paper for base card and wanting to do more with the card:)

  2. Joan, don't know if this would work for you but I also have blogger. I simply opened a new e-mail account on hotmail.com for my blog related e-mails. I then put that e-mail address in my blogger profile so when people want to e-mail me they can.

  3. I *love* this card!!! I have been looking for a popsicle stamp and was excited to see that you used one. But of course it is from SU and it is retired. I've yet to give up my hunt. Now if you could tell me where I might find the Memory Box summer paper I would be very grateful.

    As for the email question, I'm sorry but I have no answer for you Joan.

  4. I think your card is very cute, and perfect for this time of the year.

    You're a Rockin' Blogger, alright! ;)

  5. i hate feedblitz and switched to feedburner which is owned by google/blogger now-so much easier. Blitz sends out multiples and its hard to load, etc.
