CLOSED & CREATING ~Purple Rain Swap~ DUE MARCH 30th, 2012
PURPLE RAIN!!! DUE MARCH 30th, 2012
Hi all!!
This is my first time hosting a swap, so please be gentle I am a purple fanatic…and would love to see some fun inspirational color combos, using my favorite color! So come take the plunge with me and dazzle me with your “I {HEART} PURPLE” skills!!
Here are the details:
Please make sure that if you join, you can have your cards in my hand by March 30th, 2012. I will have all cards shipped out by April 5th!!
Quantity: 5+1—Cards (the plus one is for the hostess...that's me!!)
For each spot, you will make 6 cards in total and receive 5 back.
You will not get one of your own back, so make sure to make an extra one for yourself!
Description for cards: Full cards only!! Use only high quality cardstock--SU!, Gina K, or PTI for example. Use at least two layers of cardstock on your cards. NVR on embellishments, but please use at least one.
Vendor products: No vendor product restriction whatsoever. Just make beautiful cards that you would want the special people in your life to receive.
No envies necessary for regular A2 cards(5 1/2 x 4 1/4). If you choose to make another size card, please send envies.
EVERYONE IS WELCOME!!! If you've never participated in a swap before, take the plunge. It will be fun!!!! Don't feel like you 'can't' participate because you've never swapped before. We welcome everyone!!!!!
Sign up for as many spots as you'd like, but please, make a different card design for each spot you take. Please feel free to sign your cards or put a sticky note on them so we can give you the credit you deserve!!!!
Deadline: In my hands by MARCH 30th, 2012, and I will have them postal by April 5th. Cards not received by the due date will regrettably be returned to sender so as not to hold up the swap. I promise to have them returned to you promptly.
You must check in 2 weeks before the due date and let me know you are still in the swap. If you need to drop out that is fine. Believe me, I know life happens, but I don't have the time to PM 20 people a few times to see if you are still in the swap. Thank you. You must also check in after the swap and let us know you received your swap back.
Mailing Instructions and return postage: Place cards in a zip lock bag with the swap name, your real name, and your SCS name to protect them from the weather. Please send a self addressed envelope with the same postage as it took to send to me. (Since I am in Canada, please send either loose stamps or $$$ in the amount it took to send your package to me, and any unused will be returned to you in your envelope at the end of the swap) Thanks!
DO NOT send metered postage as we all know they only work for day of purchase!!
Please don’t hesitate to post questions to this thread. I welcome all advice. I also welcome all swappers to post messages and make friends during the swap. SCS is a wonderful extended family and I hope you will take advantage of this swap to get to know new people!
Thanks for joining!!
I will add additional spots as needed.

Hi ladies! Hope you all had a great weekend, we ended up out of town for the night at my best friend's house! Was great to have a visit and now my hubby and I are watching the Grammy's! Anyone else?
Good Morning Ladies--I am heading to the stamp room to play today. I also need to start to think of packing as we are heading to Arizona for 8 days and leave Saturday morning at 7:00--nothing packed or even thought of yet.........................
