Next Reisterstown, MD Shoebox Swap - Saturday, 25 April 2009
Hi stampers!
---> Check out post #78 for directions to the swap!
I'll be hosting my next SU! Shoebox Swap on Saturday, 25 April 2009, from 9am-3pm (ish) at All Saints' Episcopal Church in Reisterstown. There's room for 25 people, with each person bringing a shoebox swap for everyone to make, and something from the Food & Refreshment List below to share. I'll provide the pizza, utensils, and music! There will be a $7.50 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, patterned paper, stamps, inks, embellishments, and tools. Include one sample, along with stamping and assembly instructions, in your shoebox. Envelopes are optional. Please make sure that all of your supplies are labeled with your name or initials, in case items tend to wander during the day (and they generally do!). In addition to your shoebox containing your card kits and supplies, bring your own adhesive, bone folder, and scissors to use throughout the day. All cards should be made using Stampin' Up! stamps, cardstock, papers, and inks. The stamp sets and ink/cardstock/paper 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. Tell a friend, too! When you sign up, please indicate what you can bring from the suggested list below. I'm trying something new this time, so that we don't end up with too much food and drink - we can only eat so much, after all (can't we?) Then please send your $7.50 fee and the attached registration form to me. I'll confirm your seat once I receive your payment. If you find that you have to cancel after you've paid, I'll return your money only if I'm able to fill your seat with someone else.

Hi everyone! I'm excited about the swap, and happy that you've all signed up. I was busy today with a project in my daughter's room, and was so glad to see all of the posts when I got back on line. It should be sunny and warmer by the time we get together - let's hope! Cathy
Cathy, Can you please sign up Patti Hipp (princesspatti)is her splitcoast name.
Patti attended your last one last year and would love to come again. She is
at work and can't get on line. She will bring a dessert. Thanks Donna Hilse
also my and Ashely's splitcoast names are
donnahilse
ashelydoodle
in case you need them
Cathy, please sign me up if you still have room. I would love to join you again. I will bring the dinner plates, and if you need anything else after the slots are filled, I can bring that too. I will send my registration and payment today. Thanks a bunch for hosting. Lynn Morooney
Jumping on for a quick minute during lunch. I've got the latest signups - Patti, Lynn, Brenda, & Judy. You've got seats - glad you can join us! Rhetta - thanks for your note - let me know what you decide. Brenda - be sure to jump on with a post if Pat and/or Vicki would like to come. Thanks everyone - only six seats left!! Cathy
One last check before heading home, and I find that six more stampers have signed on! Mary M, Kelly, Lynn H, Mary Helen, Deb, and Michelle - you have seats, and the swap is now full. (This is a first for me!) :p Please take a look at the food sign-up list in post #1 - I actually don't have the last three folks signed up for anything because it looks like we've got it covered. If I can think of anything else to suggest that you bring, I'll let you know.
Thanks, everyone, for your wonderful response to the swap. I am very excited! Cathy
Lisa - Yes, I saw it, and I sincerely thought I had sent you a response. By all means, invite your friend; if she'd like to come, let me know, and I'll be happy to put you on waiting list. While the swap is full now, it's two months out, so it might be worthwhile being on a wait list in the event that someone has to cancel. Thanks! Cathy
