Today we are diving into the year 2010!
On January 27, 2010, Steve Jobs took the stage at an Apple special event to give what was one of the most important keynotes of his life and, once again, in the history of consumer electronics. The Mac had been introduced decades before, the iPhone only a few years, yet on that stage, at that event, Jobs would make the case that there was room for a new category of device in between the two. A new category of device that, in order to exist, had to be not only better at certain key tasks, but significantly better at them. It had to be the iPad.
Angry Birds is a video game franchise created by Finnish company Rovio Entertainment. The series focuses on multi-colored birds who try to save their eggs from green-colored pigs. Angry Birds quickly became iPhone’s most popular app, in other words, the piece of software that has been installed on the most number of handsets worldwide and quickly spread to Apple’s iPad and other types of phones as well.
"The End " is theories finale of the ABC television series Lost, consisting of the 17th and 18th episodes of the sixth season. It is also the 120th and 121st episodes overall.

If you collect all twelve, you will have all of the tools necessary to make a stunning calendar.

Melissa says, "Love Lives Here is a very special stamp set to me because it was the very first set I was able to collaborate on and incorporate some of my ideas. The sentiments are those that I believe and feel with all of my heart. The theme of the set is "home" which has always been my most favorite place to be, whether it was the childhood home I was loved and nurtured in, or the home I enjoy now with my husband and little girl. Home is such a special place with such special meaning, and this set wraps up all of those feelings with images and sentiments that bring them to life."
