Hi guys. Just popping to let you know I'm alive-lol. To be honest, I haven't been on Splitcoast in ages (I know, horrifying, isnt it? lol) I get so many samples & info directly in my inbox these days, or I go on Stampin Connection.
I do have a suggestion for next year- we should make a facebook page for the gathering- I for one would have definitely been more in touch since I check into FB several times a day. I would be willing to set it up & keep it updated. Just something to keep in mind.

Great idea Laura-guess you can help with that next year.Ha Ha. Don't you like how you just volunteered??!!!
OK Ladies all the final totals have been posted. We did have a couple last minute signups which was great. The swap totals are as follows:
SU Only - TEN (10)
NVR - NINE (9)
SPECIAL OCCASION - TEN (10)
MASCULINE - TWELVE (12)
FANCY FOLDS - SEVEN (7)
SPRING/SUMMER - TWELVE (12)
Remember for the SHOEBOX to make FOUR (4) Completed Cards. And you will need SIXTEEN (16) for everyone else to be able to do the project.
Thanks to everyone of you for helping to make our first gathering a success!!
Happy Crafting this weekend!!!
Enjoy!!

Someone please open the schools earlier tomarrow!! I really dislike this Feb. break. Haven't done a thing by myself in 10 days uuuugh
No thanks, Celeste! I need one last day to get ready to go back to work. These vacations are the only time I have to really dedicate to full-time fun! BTW my registration should be arriving soon.

Gotta tell ya.. I'm still in jammies.I met a short goal,, 5 days straight.. that doesn't include lauras stamp club.. i had to shower and change for that, but i still wore jammies... just not ready to get back to work
Ah yes, you can tell the people that still have little ones at home and those that work with them at school. I love my boys dearly but can't wait til tomarrow.

Heads up ladies, I know of 4 people doing clever closures for their shoebox cards. Don't know what a clever closure is... it is... a card that closes in a different way than normal and one of them I'm really looking forward to because I've never seen it done and I'm everywhere. The southern tier gals are gonna miss a great gathering. Celeste, If you want me to do an extra shoe box to help out, let me know.

Becky, Only if you have time!!!! I have the ideas for the other 2 but if you would like to do one-will save the other for the April gathering or your August gathering. Thanks for all your help and advice!!
I should have time. Been keeping busy inbetween baby naps. I have had my grandbaby all this week. I think I'm more sore from bending over more from her than work. hehehe

Stop bragging! ;) I'll get them done in time..might be the night before, but they'll be done before I arrive! LOL Coming up with the idea is the hard part. I was so happy that I did that part two weeks ahead of time!!!! hahaha

I have got to agree with you, Wendy. Design is the hardest part. I've got some sewing to do first, then on to the swaps, etc.
LOL! I think Lizz is just trying to make us feel a little bit of pressure! :p
Just a little bragging... I don't have a life, so i have lots of extra time... can't ya tell? I either stamp or I eat,, I pick stamp... once I start eating I can't stop. No pressure, really,,
hey, Lizzy aren't you doing 2 shoeboxes too??/ I'm more than half way done but also got 2 recipe swaps and 2 large tags swaps due by the end of the month. And did you see, one of my classes - Fabulous Folds 3that I'm doing at the Akron Ohio Convention in April- Adventure In Stamping is sold out YIPEEEEE, 30 students is alot of students but it payes for the hotel and the gas to get there.

That is so awesome that your class is sold out!!!!
The news is getting out there that Becky designs great things!!!
Hi Becky, this is Laura (on my mom, Helen's user, lol). Just I have to say, some of the "other" classes being taught didn't seem up to par, I was kind of surprised, actually. Your class samples looked awesome, though, wish I could go.
SU only, NVR, Masculine, Spring/Summer, Special Occasion swaps done. Shoebox and fancy folds designed. Gift idea in head/parts purchased. Salad ideas swimming....anything in particular desired? Busy sewing buttons on Drum Corps uniforms tonight, CIP class tomorrow after work. Looks like Friday will be a day of completing swaps, shoebox and gift making! See everyone Saturday.
