CNY Stampers Get Together
Saturday, February 8, 2014 from 10:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.
Christ Church Henry St
Binghamton, NY 13901

Since we have such a small group we will do 2 shoeboxes each and set them all out in the AM. Please make 12 kits and 3 completed projects, One as a sample for the table, one for the hostess and one for the church, thank you

Do join us at our next Central New York Stampin' Get Together -- a full day of stamping fun!

Cost � $20.00 per person. Registrations must be paid no later than 5 pm on January 25. Mail registration form and payment to me (info is in the registration form). There are no refunds, but you may offer your spot to someone else.

There is a lot of info to digest but reading through it should help answer many questions. If any clarification is needed, just ask. This is our main way to communicate with you and we are here to help! You will find final counts and other important info here once the event is closed.

Mandatory Table Project (aka �shoebox�) � There will be table projects in the morning AND the afternoon, so bring your idea and all the supplies (in kits) needed for making your project with your tablemates in the morning;another group will make your exact same card in the afternoon so please provide basic written instructions since you won�t be there with your project. Your project stays stationary; you�ll do the moving.

This project will generally be a full card, with layers and embellishment(s)and should *NOT* take more than 5 to 10 minutes to complete. Please provide any special adhesive that's needed. So, just to say it another way: Bring 3 completed projects + make up 12 packets of materials **in kits** to make your project. Extra parts to fix any "oops" should also be provided. We will each bring 2 shoeboxes, since we have such a small group

Please use only quality products and make these something you�d be thrilled to get yourself.

NOTE: Because you will be switching tables, but your projects staying behind, it is CRITICAL that you provide basic directions for your project unless it is VERY obvious . Please include your name and SCS name as well Thank you!

Swaps � ALL SWAPS ARE OPTIONAL. You�ll know how many to make when we post the final counts, and you�ll have plenty of notice since the deadline is 2 weeks in advance of the event. The hostess would also love to receive one of your swaps if you�re so inclined

• NVR Card Front Swap -
• Recipe Swap �
• Technique Swap
• Twisted Swap...those racy, sometimes off color cards for the adventurous
• ATC Swap �
• SU! Demo Quality* Swap �
  *This means only current SU! products can be used but you don�t need to be a demonstrator to participate.

Food � Please indicate on the registration form the specific food item you will bring to share. Please don�t just say �food� or �whatever you need�. Ideas: breakfast items, lunch items, including salads, desserts and snacks. We love to try your homemade food specialties! Bottled water and coffee will be provided. BYO soda if you want it.


�Garage Sale� � Bring your stamps and stamping supplies to sell or trade. Current Stampin� Up! items must be offered for trade only; you can sell retired items. Sorry but we can�t be responsible for missing items so bring things at your own risk

Door Prizes � Still hoping to have one for everyone so donations from our group are most welcome. Let me know if you�d like to make a door prize donation and what it is. Our participants are always so generous! We will be awarding the +1�s from all of the swaps as well as the two sets of extras from the shoebox projects as door prizes. We�ll have another 50/50 raffle to support this for next time as well.

Gift Swap � You don�t have to sign up for this one, but if you would like to participate, bring a gift related to our stamping passion. Everyone who brings a gift to swap will also leave with one. Value on these should be in the $5-10 range, and stamped projects are always appreciated! If it�s something you�d like to take home, it�s probably perfect! Be sure to include your name somewhere inside so the lucky winner knows who to thank. Wrap it up prettily to encourage �stealing�. REMEMBER: Stamping-related!!!

Other � Please bring your own labeled items for your personal stamping needs, including your favorite adhesive. These are the items you just can�t stamp without, like: bone folder, paper cutter/scorer, scissors, straight edge, stamp cleaner and whatever else you can't stamp without! Did I say adhesive????? Adhesive! You will likely need lots of it.
