So if tiles are a fad and I�m still making them and giving them as gifts am I doing a disservice to the gift recipient?
As for trends ~ remember when so many of us were buying spots they went on back order?
Great point Kymbers! My answer to you is NO. I don't think you are doing your recipient a disservice. Because unlike in the rest of life, these trends/fads aren't really trends or fads. They are all of us learning and discovering them together. The greater your arsenal of tricks, the better stamper you are, IMO. I still think crayon resist is the bomb. I've got some tiles I'll be working on today!!
Kymber, good to see you back!! I hope the tiles are still "in" enough so I can get some help in how to make them! I haven't tried them yet, and I think my customers would like them, once I figure them out!! And yes, I remember the back-ordered spots! I didn't get any spots - I went for all the full-sized pads. But I did get the BB Craft spots when they came out!

That's what I keep thinking. We learn these together, and then move on. But there's a whole world of people out there who have never seen it, never heard of it. To them, we are state-of-the-art, cutting edge!
Ok so this thread is soooo fun!!!
And Kymbers...tiles are totally awesome and like others have said, it is a past trend in the new and gotta have only because there are other things everyone wants to try now....not that they are out of style!!! Are you kidding me, I have some still to do and I know the person getting them will LOVE THEM!!! (i hope!!! :O) )
Here's a site where you can buy the Z Becky Brown purses. I came across them while searching for the best prices on punches. The best thing about this site is that it has flat rate shipping. I've never ordered from here so I can't vouch for them. Those purses sure aren't cheap!
I just thought of another one, Remember that fad that when there was a new SU promo people would get upset about whether or not it was a good thing to release the information on SCS right away. Then there was the whole squeaky leaky inccident, followed by a lot of hurt feelings. Boy, I'm glad we got over that one. It got old real quick.
Oooh, ooh, what about wine glass lamp shades. I still have the template in my computer and haven't made one yet.
Well I for sure got on the paisly wagon and the just jeans. I remember skunky and butt stampin and I followed Sereikastamper and baby updates. Do you remember Jen Balcer's green face during convention 04 ( so glad she got to go this year). I still LOVE the Tearing Edge
What About the SCS Queens....and RAKs for the queen....I'm not sure, but this may have been prior dirty dozen fan club.
Trivia: Can anyone list all the queens??

In spite of the fact that SOME people seem to think my work is a fad :eek: , I have decided to write at least one more episode, which you can find here:
Well, I'll give it a shot: First was Julie, right? Then JanTInk ... Feel like I might be forgetting someone here, UM I remember PJB, but then she gave it up to Karixma when she was so ill. Then didn't we die out with saying "all the moderators"
I guess I don't remember as well as I thought I did. Am I right, or who am I forgetting?
