The Great Central Minnesota Spring Stamp Fest
The Great Central Minnesota Spring Stamp Fest
Date: Saturday April 21st. 9 am to 9 pm
Location: Comfort Inn, St. Cloud, MN
320.251.1500 (you do not need to register with the hotel unless you plan on staying overnight)
Located on the corners of Hwy 23 and Hwy 15
Cost: $10/$11 for Paypal registrations (cover cost of Paypal fees)
RSVP: Please PM me with your information if you want to join us. I�ll add your name as tentative until I receive payment. When payment is received, I will change your registration status to confirmed. Also, I will provide payment/contact information via PM.
RSVP due by April 7th. Payment due by April 14th.
Timeline of Events:
9-12:30 Shoebox Swap
12:30-2 Lunch
2-4 Field Trips to Crafts Direct, Michaels, Scrapbooks Plus, etc. Or have some free time, too!
4-9 Open Stamping/Scrapping. Bring your stuff and just enjoy some social time with other SCS�ers.
Important Notes
We need at least 10 people to make this a go. We are capping the number of attendees at 20 so that there�s adequate room for everyone to participate and still be comfortable. Your registration is considered complete when I have received payment.
About the Shoebox Swap
Please prepare �make and take� type projects. We�ll let you know the final number the first week in April so that you know how many to prepare for. Shoebox swaps are NOT required � but they are a lot of fun, so please participate! Your RSVP should include whether you will participate in the shoebox swap.
Guidelines
Your shoebox swaps should be nearly identical. Include a sample card for the rest of us to follow, and all supplies necessary to complete it. Things to consider: do certain elements require dry time? Stamps to be cleaned? Etc? You may substitute colors if you do not have enough to complete a project. (For example, half the cards are blue and half the cards are green � that�s fine by us!) Stampin� Up! products are NOT required for this event, but we do ask that you use quality materials.
Each person will provide their own adhesive for themselves � you are not expected to supply adhesive for others to use, unless your project requires something special (2way glue, glue dots, etc.)
Non-card projects are fine, too, as long as they can be completed within a reasonable time frame. We will be running timers to make the even go smoothly. J
Meals
Meals will be on your own. If we fill the room, we will have a little bit of money left, and will provide snacks. We�ll keep you informed of this closer to the date. If we don�t have enough participants/registration money to cover snacks, we�ll ask everyone to consider bringing a little something to share.
The hotel will provide coffee and water to us; beverage machines are available just outside the conference room doors. You are welcome to bring in your own beverages, too.
The Comfort Inn is connected to the Old Chicago restaurant, which makes a great lunch or dinner option. Other restaurants such as Granite City, Perkins, Applebee�s, Timberlodge, and IHOP (among others!) are very close by, as are a few coffee shops (for breakfast!)
About the Field Trip
We thought we�d escort anyone who is interested to the great crafting stores in town, so we�ve set aside some time to do this. You are not required to participate. If you want to stay in the conference room and continue stamping/scrapping, that�s certainly fine.
Anymore questions? I�m sure there�s something I�m forgetting! LOL � so please, post it here, and we�ll answer any questions you might have. (Some of the details regarding snacks, etc, we won�t know until we know what kind of response we receive, so be sure to check this thread often for further announcements.)
Alright, WHO IS IN!!!!! This is going to be FUN FUN FUN!!!! |

Make sure you let me know whether or not you are doing the shoebox swap. It's OK to say 'maybe' if you are undecided... but I just want to make sure that part doesn't get overlooked.  |

I think this would be fun sign me up , but can you explain the shoe box swap.
Is it a real shoe box? But I would probably do that too. Let me know. Thanks

A shoe box swap is just another term for make and takes. The idea is that you use a shoe box (or whatever box fits) to carry all the supplies necessary to make your cards. So basically you would be cutting all the paper necessary to complete your very own make and take, along with supplying the ink and stamps and whatever other materials are necessary to complete your projects. I'll see if I can find a picture to show you.
Hope this helps.  |

If you ever notice that you can't send me a PM because my box is full.... let me know on this thread. LOL. I have serious hoarding issues with my PMs, and it's bound to happen, like it did tonight. I've cleared out a few, so there's room again. |

Oh, I can't take all the credit! There've been a few of us talking 'behind the scenes' to make the decisions, etc. I'm just the one who ended up reserving the room on my credit card, so it was easiest for me to take the payment from everyone! But there are others - namely, Michelle and Kristy, who have helped too! Reveal yourselves, ladies! |
