Stamp Club Nostalgia - 2001


Here's a photo from 2001. Ros is demonstrating paper marbling. We still have demonstrations from time to time at SERS. You never know what you will see. But the best demonstrations are the impromptu ones!

Who can we see here? Let's start from the left. The lady with glasses is barely in the photo, but I think that's Caroline. The glamourous redhead is Laurie. Then in the red cardigan we have Nan, who still comes to SERS! Behind her in the blue jumper is Jan, a founder of SERS, and one time keen retailer of stamp stuff. The lady with the Scottish accent (and the black and white jumper) is Margaret, who still comes. She sometimes designs her own stamps and has them made! Standing in the red jumper is Stacey, the organiser of Paperific (awesomest paper craft show ever to be staged in Melbourne, and the next one's coming) and was the owner of Studio Astarte, an innovative stamp business (now closed, but you'll see her stamps turn up from time to time - we all bought them!). Seated (and a bit obscured) is Cathy, who continues to run My Stamps, a fabulous stamp business. Check out her word stamps - she calligraphs them all herself. Is that a word? Then standing is Ros, who I believe is a Stampin' Up person now.

That was fun! I have more photos, so I'll do more later.
