Next Reisterstown, MD Shoebox Card Swap - Saturday, 22 September 2007
Everyone - Please see post #59 for a summary of the beverage, dessert, and snack sign-ups. There will also be some breakfast items, and I've got a few holes to fill in. These are listed in post 59 in red. Thanks!
Stampin' Up! cardmakers - are you ready?!? The next Reisterstown Shoebox Card Swap will be held on Saturday, 22 September, from 9am-2pm, at All Saints' Episcopal Church. There's room for 20 people, with each person bringing a shoebox swap for everyone to make, and something to share for lunch. There will be a $5 charge, payable in advance, to cover the rental of my church hall.
All cards are to be full cards. There's no theme for the swap, but please bring enough supplies for everyone to make your card, including all cardstock, stamps, inks, embellishments, and tools. Include one sample, along with stamping and assembly instructions, in your shoebox. Please make sure that all of your supplies are labled with your name or initials, in case items tend to wander during the day. In addition to your shoebox containing your card kits and supplies, bring your own adhesive and scissors to use throughout the swap. All cards should be made using Stampin' Up! stamps, cardstock, and inks. The stamp sets and ink/cardstock colors can be current or retired ones. No restrictions on embellishments.
Please sign up via this on-line thread if you'd like to join us. When you sign up, indicate if you can bring either a beverage, snack, or dessert to share. I'll provide ice and pizza for lunch, along with the paper products and cups. Then please send me your $5 fee, and I'll confirm your seat once I receive your payment. If you find that you have to cancel after you've paid - hope not :( - , I'll return your money only if I'm able to fill your slot with someone else.
Please send your payment to: Cathy Eller
3507 Oxwed Court
Westminster, MD 21157
The address of my church is 203 E. Chatsworth Avenue, Reisterstown (in case you want to do a Mapquest search.) I'll provide specific driving directions as the date gets closer. I'll start a waiting list after I receive the first twenty names -hope we can fill up. We love making those cards! The flow of the day will be just like Cindy's crops - her crops are great, so why tinker with success? See you in September! Cathy

Hi Cathy! Please sign me and my mom (FranT) up for your swap. I'll mail you payment for both of us soon. Thanks for hosting another one. Sign me up for a dessert and Mom up for drinks.
Hi Cathy, I am a friend of Pam Parto and would love to join the swap. Can you please sign me up and I will mail you my check.
Sign me up for a veggie tray with dip.
Hi there Cathy, Please sign me up (i'll confirm with hubby that he can take the girls that day) and please put Joan H in a spot too. I'll confirm her availability and gat back to you.
I am definitely in. Is there a special way for me to sign up or is a reply to this message considered signing up? This is my first time through the site.
Karen - You're signed up now - thanks! Check this thread from time to time between now and swap day. I'll post updates, directions, and other info. I'm glad you can come - Cathy
Yeah, I get to see the amazing card that Cindy will come up with. Thanks Cindy, I'm really look forward to seeing you again as well. I wish I could have been able to come to yours, but it has been crazy around my household with all the traveling. Well, take care and I will see you soon.
Thanks, Cindy! Hey Penny - is Sara your daughter? (I confess I can't remember.) Two other swappers will be bringing their daughters with them too
Cathy, Sara is my best friend from North Carolina. She is my up-line as well for Stampin' Up!. I can't wait for you all to meet her. Take care and I will talk to you soon.
Oh, I'm not sure yet what I will be bringing to eat, but I will figure it out closer to time. Thanks!

Thanks, Pam, and thanks to all who have already paid. And, to those who have sent their payments in a handmade card, wow! The cards are beautiful! Thank you to Penny and Michelle - what a treat Cathy
Cathy, I'm sorry to ahve to do this, but Joan H had something come up and has to back out of the shoebox swap. I'm still in though! Sorry for the confusion.
