I donate them to charities: Covid providers, charities for cancer patients and seniors. I do stamping, die cutting, ink blending, alcohol inks, and other techniques. With stamps, I mainly do heat embossing. I love the metallic look it gives. I actually used to hate stamping. It took me a while to get a good impression. Now I use a marble French rolling pin, which helps get the pressure right. I plan to do more stamping in the future.

There was a lot of pushback against the complainers on Holtz's webpage. He posted it right after the race was called for Biden, so it was clear what he was thinking of. I made the comment that they shouldn't expect him to remain neutral when one side protected his rights while another treated him as a less than equal.

Do you follow Gina K? She has a Youtube channel and a product line. This is currently my favorite stamp.

That main stamp is quite large. Even though Christmas has passed, I'll use the designs with different sentiments.
