I'm not very original when it comes to naming anything. I also didn't realize that in a lot of cases I'd be stuck with what I picked.

I like that you let people know you changed names. I often...

I love Stampin' Up's Whisper White card stock for stamping on but not for card bases. It's coated so it's nicer to stamp on than any other card stock I've tried but it isn't as thick.
