YOU NEED TO BRING ENOUGH SUPPLIES FOR EACH PERSON ATTENDING THIS SWAP PLUS A FEW EXTRAS FOR MISTAKES. A final count will be posted on February 12th./
Cost is $15 this includes lunch snacks, and door prizes. If anyone would like to bring a snack to share or a door prize please let me know.
There will be room for garage sale items if you have things to sell and we will be opening the doors at 8:30 to set up these items.
If you have never done a shoebox swap please feel free to contact me and I will be glad to help
Need to close this on February 11th so we can have an accurate count on the cards
Add 5 from the Geneseo group, Deb Else, Chris Hudson, Jean Williams, Martha Fleming & Tami Gradert. I'm glad you are having it at the end of February so we can share our adventures from the stamping cruise at the beginning of the month.
Wish I was in Iowa, sounds like fun. I went to UNI and grew up in Nevada. Moving around now with my Air Force hubby. Have a blast and hoping the weather works out for you all.

Just found this, too new at card making to join but nice to know people live close. I do not have anyone I know that does crafting so this is a treat to find
One is never too new to join...we have some brand new card makers in this swap....this would allow you to meet others in the area get some good ideas and I would be glad to help you in any way I can
Yes you will make up little kits we often use sandwich bags with what a person needs to make your card...right now we have 18 so probably 20 kits will be enough....we will post the final count on the 11th and then I usually make one extra and throw in a baggie with some extra pieces. You do not need to do the stamping or putting together just what they need. Then you bring your stamp, ink, embellishments or whatever is needed and we put these out in stations around the church so everyone can move around as they wish...we like cards that can be completed in 10-15 minutes so we get done in a timely fashion. If you wish help with putting these kits together I just live in Fulton and would be glad to help
Thank you to you and your group for hosting a wonderful shoe box swap! Our group had a wonderful time and made some great cards. We look forward to the next one.
