Heading Home ~ Caffeine Crazy Cards ~ Due Sept. 27th~~with Prizes!
I have hosted a swap with this theme twice before--and loved all of the creations! This swap is for all things with caffeine--coffee, tea, espresso, chocolate, lattes, any kind of Starbucks, soda or pop, etc. It is is caffeinated--stamp it! It can be funny or serious---your choice! Any holiday or no sentiment at all--just be sure it is about caffeine!
Sign up for as many spots as you'd like, but please, make a different design for each spot you take. Read down to see how you can get a prize in your return envie!
Description: Full Size Card- 4 1/4 x 5 1/2. Please use at least 2 layers & 1 embellishment! If you make a size different than this, please include an envie.
Quantity: 5+1 -You will not get one of your own back, so make an extra one for yourself!
Vendor Products: Any stamp from any company, but PLEASE use very good quality cardstock (PTI/Gina K/SU), No vendor restriction on embellishments - use as many embellishments as you like. Designer papers are encouraged, but not required.
Due Date:Thursday, September 27, 2012 - I will mail them as soon as I receive all swaps! If I receive the swaps early, I will send them out early. Please post in the thread or send me a PM when your cards are postal.
Mailing instructions: Place swap cards in a large baggie for waterproof purposes. Write your real name, SCS name and swap name on a piece of paper or the baggie for identification purposes.
Swap Return: Please include self-addressed stamped envelope. The amount of postage on your SASE should be the same amount used to mail to hostess. Please include 2 additional stamps to insure enough postage to return swaps. Additional postage will be returned if not used. PLEASE SEND ONLY POSTAGE STAMPS, NO DATED STAMPS OR METERED MAIL--My Post Office will not take them. If you would rather use Priority mail, please include one $5.15 priority stamp and a self-addressed priority label. I will provide priority envelope. If you are mailing from outside the US, please include $5 US (or more for mutiple spots) to cover return postage, and I will return whatever is left to you.

Hi Barb - I will take TWO spots. Thanks much! Beautiful Sunday morning here in the great Northwest. I think summer has finally arrived!! Have a great week, everyone.
Hi ladies........temp is down is the lower 90's but no humidity feels like heaven outside today.......out for breakfast, Target then grocery shopping now i'm going to do somemore scrapbooking.......Have a great day ladies
It is so nice out today. I'm actually taking the boys swimming at the neighbors pool. Unexpected time with twin grandsons, can't wait. Love seeing them.
Hi Barb,
You know how I love coffee stamps (and have several)! I will take one spot please!

Hello Barb, since my hubby left out this morning for Calif. I will have plenty of time to play so may I please have 1 spot for now, I may add another later if that is okay.
Oh, I'm sorry you're alone, Dani. How long will he be gone?
My family is out of town and I'd hoped to get a few hours in my craft shop, but he left me so many jobs to do It's not looking like I'll manage any card-making while he's gone.

Oh don't be sorry, we've been doing this for years now, it's his job that keeps him away. Only now it won't be SO bad because my best friend just moved in with us so at least she is here with me. I just wish she got into stamping. As far as how long the hubby will be gone, he isn't sure yet. Either 3 weeks or 5 weeks. It will depend if they send him right to another job site or not.
I hope you get the chance to get some creative time. Maybe between jobs you can sneek away into your craft shop.

Just spent 2 hours in the pool so my legs are really tired. Don't have to fix supper tonight as DD is bringing pizza. Scrapbooked all morning, should be done with our vacation pictures in just a few days.
G'morning everyone. Barb you have fun at stamp camp. I would love to go to stamp camp for a week. The kids get to go to camps for a week at a time so it's only fair right? lol..Well today is going to be an easy day. I will be spending time in my stamping room getting things ready for round 4 of the Alphabet Challenge, which starts tomorrow. Other than that I am just going to straighten up my kitchen and chill. Oh I also plan on looking at some tutorials a fellow SCSr sent to me. She is a lefty too and made some "how to" videos. So maybe I will learn some new things. I plan on having a great day and I hope y'all have one as well. Huggs.
Well, I had a rough morning, but made it through. My truck overheated this morning and of course, Cory is out of town and I couldn't get any neighbors to answer. FINE! I took the truck to the shop and begged them to drive me home. That worked.
Of course today is the only day I have to work. I'm doing crafts at the summer lunch program. Hmm...my son left is car, but he doesn't have a spare key laying around. I dug around in his backpack and found the key, so today I'm driving a sports car.
