It's been a crazy week at our farm----I've not made one single card:(. I've been painting fences, pulling weeds, washing windows....you get the drift. Reason....When the Green Bay Packers play on September 8th, it's going to be a big party, free concert etc. The local schools are closing early because of traffic. The Today Show is going to showcase some of the local surroundings. You know Wisconsin the the dairy state, so they would like to do a segment on our local cheese factory. It's called BelGioioso and we ship our milk to them. They make specialty Italian cheeses. The Today Show wanted to see were the milk comes from to make the cheese. They choose our farm. They didn't want a mega farm, but a small family farm. So they are coming Wednesday to film the milking of the cows. Unlike a stamping room, when company is coming you close the door. A farm is in everyone's view....so we had some cleaning to do!
This morning I took a peek at SCS just to see what my stamping friends have been making, and to my total shock I saw TrishG's card with my user name in the title. I was overwhelmed to think it could be me with this honor. I made a "Holstein" thank-you card for all the kind stampers who sent me wishes, and cased my cards. I will get to comment at a later time. What ever I do as a stamper I've learned from all the fantstic stampers on this wonderful place. Thanks Trish for giving me this honor. Linda

Hee, Hee!! I live on a farm and that barn door IS always open to the world. What a fun thing to "clean up" for tho'. Hope it will be a blast!! I just got back from being away and saw you up for Queen. Congratulations, Linda. I spent some time perusing your gallery and tucked your farm card (that Linda aka morningsun47 cased that hooked me up with all the info) into my faves for a 50th Anniversary card for a farming couple that I have to make by this coming Thurs. Thanks for adding so much to this site and for the lovely comments you leave in our galleries.
