  3. I am a google subscriber but don't know how to show you proof. I may be a feed biz sub too as rely on google so delete the feed biz updates when I get them.
    I bet you have lots of thank you stamps and expressions so I will guess 30.
    As for the watermark, I wouldn't know what to do with it if I won it, so if you choose me, you are welcome to give it to someone else. I am not very computer literate.
    I have been reading your blog for as long as I knew about blogs and love every post. You are full of talent. Thank you for sharing it with us.

  34. Hi Dina, That's an easy question. Back on July 7 you were orgainizing your Thank you stamps and you had 25 unmounted ones!! Then, you also have some that go in "other categories" like "thank you beary much". So 25 + about 7 more would be about 32. I am hoping that you haven't bought a whole lot more since then.

    Happy Blogday !!!
