It's All Because of a Napkin!

I met Pennie when we both moved into the same neighborhood. I had never done stamping before and wasn't terribly interested in starting a new hobby, but I decided to go to a workshop Pennie held in the fall of 2011.

In December, Pennie had a Christmas class. We made some gift tags, but it was her stamped napkins that I loved. I wanted to design my own napkins for Christmas. I imagine Pennie was a bit surprised when I told her I decided to sign up as a demonstrator.

So, Pennie, thank you! I never thought I'd even enjoy stamping, and now I'm hooked!
