So we're wishing all the new Stampotique designers a warm welcome.
You can find them here.
If you are unfamiliar with Spanky, she is a time traveling stylist, she is bold, daring, windswept and dangerous and she knows everything about Romance, she lives here in The Land of Shiny with me, I'm her sidekick and gofer.
Well, I'm just her pale shadow really.
Firstly I must apologise to Alberto who is the only male stampotique designer, unfortunately we are catering for the majority in this post and that is the Wimen.
Fortunately for you, this is The Land of Shiny and regardless of what job title you may hold now or in the future, we shall never expect you to pour the coffee or distribute the biscuits...unless it is actually your turn :-)
Now then.
Come in and welcome.
Come in and share a little LOVE with the Torrente Boys.
Sometimes they like to pretend they are The Floaters.
Oh yes they do.
Aquarius and my name is Heart Throb,
I love a woman who can hold her own,
a woman who can grab hold of my ears and hold on tight.
Take my hand, come with me baby, to Love Land.
Libra and my name is Hunk,
Now I like a woman who carries herself like Miss Universe,
a woman who can balance a crown on her enormous head,
a woman who will take me to Love Land.
Leo and my name is Weasel,
I love all the women of the world,
I paint a new name on my sign every night,
because I love everybody and everything,
and you know what, ladies, if you feel this is you,
Then this is what you do -
Take my hand,
come with me baby, to Love Land.
Float, float on.
Spanky says welcome and float on...

Come on you know you want to watch the video, I still can't believe that song was taken seriously or that it was even written and performed, I can imagine it was written whilst they were very very drunk but it didn't get laughed at and thrown in the bin the next day did it, we are soooo doomed.
Private Frazer was right.
I am practicing that shaking finger step in the mirror.
I think Himself might like it.
Happy creating!

I have to wait until this evening to watch the video but this post had me laughing at my desk during lunch! So fun! You are adorable, Ms. Gini of the Lovely Smelling breath. I'm loving all the color and the handsome devils you're showing here (doesn't one of them like long walks on the beach?).
(we don't have Polos here, but I may have to try your sugar-buster trick with some Lifesavers)
I was laughing my parts off writing that post last night :-)
They could go on tour and give the Chippendales a run for their money couldn't they! Phoar!!!!!!!!!!
-THE TORRENTE BOYS coming to a town near you.-

Brilliant post Gini...I loved it!! The card is truly fab; you are SUCH a clever girl :-)
Oh I remember that song well...I think it used to be one of my mum's favs.
I shall continue practising carrying myself like Miss Universe...and holding my own ;-) (But not in a Michael Jackson-
kind-of-way, lol !!)

I watched the video - OMG, that's fun. So, now I understand the reference to the Floaters!
OMG - what a fabulous Welcome card this is Gini - so much detail and dimension and what a story - I laughed my socks off!! Was a bit unsure about the "floaters" bit, until I watched the video!! (Can't say I remember them, but I'm probably too young)!!!!!!!!!
Hugs, Sylvia xxx
PS: Thanks again for the beautiful bookmark!
Gini, this is so absolutely over the top creatively cool!!! I love it and the fact that it's one of those folded cards (the name is slipping me right now). Awesome job and best of luck on the guest designer! Thanks for playing along with us.
This is so cool! But I have no idea how you made it. Very curious...
