*Plainfield Shoebox Card Swap*
Plainfield, IL

Saturday, June 9, 2007 10am to 4pm


Registration space is filling up fast for the Plainfield Swap. So don't delay, reserve your seat to attend June 9, 2007 10am to 4pm for just $20! This gathering is conveniently located off Caton Farm Rd west of Rt. 59 in Plainfield at the Wesmere Clubhouse and is open to anyone.

Cruise on over to stamp, socialize and win some awesome prizes including a chance to win a Cricut� Personal Electronic Cutter or a Cuttlebug� embossing System!

What do I bring?


� Design an original, multi-layered card with your favorite technique using Stampin� Up stamps and paper. Pre-cut the paper and individually baggie all the pieces needed to complete your card for 35 people. This will make the stamping process go more quickly. Also make 2 completed cards, one for the hostess and one for charity. Label your accessories (ink pads, stamps etc.) and put all the supplies for your card into a �shoebox� type container.
� Your own adhesive (and a refill or two)
� Scissors
� Stampin� Scrub (wipes will be available for those who do not have a stamp cleaner)
� Any display boards that you would like to share with the group
� There will be an optional �Anything But A Card� Gift exchange with a $5 value if you wish to participate
� There will also be an area for you to bring items that you would like to sell. Please mark with price and name ahead of time.

What are we going to do all day?


9:45 � 10:00 Check-in : Upon check-in, participants will receive a welcome bag filled with lots of great goodies including a binder with full color detailed directions on how to make each project. SEE BELOW FOR MORE INFORMATION
10:00 � 12:30 Stamp
12:30 � 1:00 Lunch (will be provided) � let me know if you have a special diet
1:00 � 4:00 Stamp
4:00 � 4:15 Wrapping it up
4:15 � 5:00 Clean-up

There will be plenty of time to finish all the cards. We want this to be a stress free event!
We will also have Munchies & Water available all day. Feel free to bring anything extra that you may want.

Question

Do we have to use just Stampin' Up! stamps?

I live in Aurora, And would like to attend.. But need to know if it's just for SU.

I use mainly TAC stamp and supplies.

Hi, Nancy!! Here's one of the specifications Laura has listed: "Design an original, multi-layered card with your favorite technique using Stampin” Up stamps and paper."
Even though you don't really have much SU stuff, I hope you will still come! Consider borrowing someone else's! I wouldn't mind loaning you stuff. Everyone's going to get their hands all over our stamps anyway...So no big deal to me! If you are interested, I'd be more than happy to email you a list of the stamps I'm willing to loan out.
Hope to see your name on the list soon! ;)

Thanks Lana, ;)
It's not that I don't have any SU stamps..Because I do.
It's that I don't have any of the Cardstock or inks.. Supplies stuff. Plus I've never done a shoebox before.

I'll be keeping this under my belt for awhile and thinking about it.

Oh, Nancy YOU GOT TO DO IT!! You won't regret it!! No big deal if you don't have SU colors...besides, don't you (TAC) have Bazzill? I covet that! So design something with that awesome paper, if you have it and I'm not confusing TAC w/ another company and if it's not expensive. Pretty please? And I'm sure some colors are so close together! (Red is red, white is white, KWIM?)
Don't be intimidated by the swap. The cards you get in turn, and the fun people you meet are sooo worth it! Come on...the more the merrier!! And SCS is FULL of ideas to CASE. So is there really an "excuse?" I think not!
JUST DO IT...:P

We are only a few days away and we are going to have so much fun this Saturday. FYI - Feel free to bring a desert to share and if the parking lot at the clubhouse is full you can park in the school parking lot which is right next door. If anyone has any questions, let me know. Our current count is 21!

I just want to thank Laura for organizing this event. I had a great time and great lunch and snacks. I loved meeting everyone and really enjoyed stamping all the great projects we did. I am so looking forward to a fall meeting. Loved the fact that I did not have to drive an hour to get to an event. The location was perfect. Having the pictures and the directions booklet was just wonderful. Great job Laura and you are so hired!!!!! Thank you again!!
