I'm sorry Martha...

I don't care for Martha Stewart. I never have. I don't know if it's because she intimidates me with her creativity...the way she can take a turkey carcass, spray paint it silver metallic and hang shrinky dink ornaments on it for a centerpiece...AND make it look good, or if it's because her family says she's really a snotty brat; either way, I said I'd never buy any of her products. I don't like her magazine; I can't watch her show; I boycott her Michaels products because you can't use a coupon on them (like she can't afford to offer a discount). Last summer, I did buy something of hers; a note card kit with bandanna
rub-ons. I really just wanted the rub-ons to use on a western scrapbook page. Plus, they were on clearance; that's how I rationalized it. Anyway, last night I was making B'day party invites for Hannah, and I used her card kit. I have to say, her rub-ons are some of the best that I have ever used. They rubbed off the backing like butter; and they were even old! Old rub ons tend to be impossible to run off. So Martha, I take it back. I found something of yours that I like, but I still think you're a snob. :-)A collage of the finished invites.

Martha has nothing on you!!! I started my boycot of Martha when I saw her in an interview. She was asked about her products in K-mart, if she had ever been to a k-mart. Her reply "Why would I ever go there?" eww. What a snot. The invites are fabulous!!!

Too cute!! I love the colors!

I'm not big on Martha either!! AND, I hate that all of her products are excluded in the Michael's coupon!! Not that I would want them anyway......
I have bought some K-Mart stuff of hers, though!

Can't wait to see party pictures!
