Shoebox Swap
You will have the opportunity to be at 2 different shoebox swap tables during the day, one in the morning and another in the afternoon.

Design a project like a card or simple non-card item. This should be a project that can be completed in under 15 minutes, so do not do anything too complicated or time consuming. Bring your project and all the supplies needed (pre-cut cardstock, stamps, ink, embellishments, ect) for making it in some sort of box (hence the term shoebox). The shoebox projects will be done in small groups with your tablemates. We will have tables of 8-9 people per group. Some people type up directions to go along with their project, but that is up to you. We will work our way around the table until everyone has completed one of each project.

You only need to design and prepare one project but come with supplies for 20 people (extra pieces never hurt) to cover the stampers at both the tables you will be assigned. By days end, you will have a pile of great projects to take home.


You will also need to bring TWO completed shoebox projects :
1) One for your tablemates to see as a sample
2) One for the display board

SWAPS

Please supply a large Ziplock bag labeled with your name and swap category. (If you are in more than 1 swap, bring a bag for each)

These swaps are optional this year. You may choose as many as you would like but be sure to follow through on the your commitments! Don't bite off more than you can stamp.(final numbers will come once registration closes)

Food
Our kitchen crew has been enlisted again to help with lunch. We will eat at the church in their cafe area.
We are providing deli trays (meat and cheese), rolls, condiments and chips this year. We are asking each person to bring one of the following items:

salad/side
dessert
12 pack of bottled water
Per request: you may pay $5.00 instead of bringing a lunch item


Feel free to bring table snacks or chocolate!

Name tags
Are soooo helpful!! Please wear a nametag with your name and SCS name on it so we can make the connection and really "know" you!

Garage Sale
If you would like to sell or trade items (stamps or stamping related) feel free. Please remember SU's policy though...current items can only be traded, retired items can be sold. Please clearly label all your stuff.

Buffalo Stamps & Stuff
The store is located just minutes from the church. This is an incredible stamping store, full of current stuff...you don't want to miss this! Check out their site, they offer coupons as well, so check close to the event and print it up if you'd like.

[LodiChick]

Each year we have had a theme but this year we thought we would share it with you in advance and add a contest!

Our theme is
Over the Rainbow....Wizard of Oz

If you would like, prepare a project having to do with our theme. All the projects will be displayed during the event and the kitchen crew will vote on a favorite. Of course there will be a prize involved.
