SHOEBOX SWAP
You design and make one card. In the shoebox you will put all supplies needed to make said card...paper cut to size, ribbons, embellishments, stamps and ink. Everyone will have their own adhesive. You should also include an instruction card. Everyone then rotates around the tables making all the cards. We all make mistakes occasionally so a couple extra pieces of paper would be nice. 22 people have registered for the shoebox swap. I know of one person having to leave early. If you are able to make an instruction card for each kit, that would be great. If not, please make two instruction cards so the person leaving early can figure how to assemble the kit when they are able to make them up. Thanks!
REGULAR SWAPYou will make these cards at home to swap at the event. Again, we will post the number participating when registration closes. If we have 30 people, you will need to make 30 of the same card. These will be full cards, not just card fronts as some do, and they do not need to be exclusively SU. 20 people have registered for the regular swap.
Ladies: please remember to post-it note your name on the back of your regular swaps so people know who created it...
CHALLENGESOur three Friday night challenges will include: A sketch challenge, a color challenge, and a Way to Use It challenge. You should bring the stamp set/sets, ink and adhesive of your choice for these challenges, basic supplies will be supplied. You may wish to bring extra embellishments to make your design extra special!

Jaclyn-- no way~ no reason to be embarrassed! We all meet new friends weekly here on SC, and it's kind of hard to keep track! Hope you would be able to join us whereever we meet!
Lorien-- that would be so GREAT if you could join us! and Grandma babysitting sounds like a grand plan! This is our first time putting together one of these--we may have to ask some advice! We are certainly open to any you might have!!!
I wouldn't miss an event that Deb and JoAnn are coordinating!!! Count me in!!!!
Hi Jaclyn! I see you have a 3 month old -- last time I saw you at our upline meeting you were newly pregnant -- gee, that's been a long time!!! CONGRATS!!!!!!
Hey you guys!! I'm a Yooper-Wannabe!! I have a house near Calumet. I don't know if or when we'll get up there this year (My Husband is having a hip replacement in June, (said with fingers crossed)). But I'd love to come if we are up there!
Karen (sad troll ;o)
P.S. I'm a notimetostamp fan too!!

Actually I need to update that, she's 4 months old already! YIKES! She was born on Dec 26th. And she's a TOTAL momma's girl, which I ADORE, but it does make it difficult to get much stamping done :-D.

Who is this Notimetostamp everyone's talking about?
Bwaaaa-haaaa-haaaaa! Sorry, Sharon, I just couldn't resist.
I've had the pleasure of meeting and spending time with Sharon and Deb on a couple occasions, so I'm in on that alone because not only are they talented stampers, but they are exceptionally nice women. AND, I would love to meet JoAnn and some of the other Yoopers! That's a good 8-9 hour trip for me, but let me talk with hubby and see if we can think about a mini vacation around then. I'll get back to you.
Woo hoo-- sounds great, Charlene! Hope you're able to make it!
Soostampin-- we would be so happy to have you! If you have a choice of the two weekends, you can mention that too-- can't promise it would be your choice, of course, but it would help us narrow down the date!

You're so funny, Charlene. I would love to meet you, too.

I love Agate Beach. The kids and I normally spend OODLES of time there in the summer. Last summer we didn't tho, because I was pregnant with Emberlyn and REALLY sick. We plan to rock it out there this summer tho! Can't beat the beautiful Lake Superior!
