Placing Proper Value on Your Stamping Business – by John Sanpietro, Certified Professional Development CoachMy clients have a sadistic side.

Good Morning Stampers Well, I was a good girl today and decided to stay home and work a little (making up for Wednesday's and Thursday's hooky! (LOL)). Yes, Lisa – you'r right.
