Hello ladies. I am sorry to announce this but I must step down as the hostess to the second round of the d/p swap. I hate to do this since I had so much fun the first time around. I have not yet found a replacement hostess so if you are interested in taking over as hostess to this swap please pm me. To those of you that already sent your d/p to me please know that I will send it on to whomever the hostess is as soon as I know who it will be. I apologize for the inconvience of this change, however, I know that due to the craziness in my life I will not be a dependable hostess. I will be taking a family member out of town tomorrow, Thurs and Fri for a chemo treatment so I will check back on Friday to see if anyone wants to take this swap over. To those of you that recently asked to be added, please hang in there as soon as I have a replacement hostess I will ask that she make sure to add you. Again, I am so sorry for the inconvience this may cause. I miss y'all very much!!!! And I look forward to coming back to SCS like I used to. I also look forward to my quiet boring life coming back to me as well. Big huggs my friends.

SU Card Class was fun! They had an ice cream cake for my birthday and presents! I got the set "morning cup," a clear block, the in color twines, pearls, and hand soap! Then as hostess, I got $40 in freebies and 2 SAB items! I have a ton of goodies coming!
Hello ladies, I once again do not have much time on here, I am getting ready to go see the surgeon. I find out today if I have to have another back surgery. I will make sure I let someone know if I end up having it. I want to announce that Samswindle is going to take over hosting this d/p swap. Thank you Sam, I know you will make this fun for everyone. Ladies, please give Sam a warm welcome as your new hostess. Remember she has control of the naughty corner. I miss y'all very much!!!!! Big huggs to everyone. If you haven't been added to the list of swappers Sam will make sure you get added.
Good evening ladies!
I had physical therapy today and my back does seem to be getting better. I took the afternoon off of work and went to our women's group meeting at church. I am the new secretary. They meet at 2 p.m. 2 months of the year and at 7 p.m. the rest of the year. I am on the county fair board and am working on the premium list for homemakers. Then I am going to go and play in my stamp room for awhile.

Welcome ladies!!! I hate that Dani's life is crazy right now, but I'm happy to be your new hostess for this swap!!
Kathy, yes, Dani is sending me your paper.
I'm going to repost the first page so I can edit and can give you my address! I hope to have lots more people join us for this swap!!!! Help me spread athe word!!!
Welcome to the second round of "I finally can use this d/p" swap. Where you can either swap cards or sheets of designer paper or both.
This swap is a bit different then what most of us are used to. How is it different you may ask? Well, you can choose to swap d/p only or you can swap cards, or both but the cards you make do not have to match one another. They can if you want them to, however, it is not mandatory that they do. The cards can be whatever size you prefer. Just make sure to include an envelope if it's not the normal A2 (5.5 x 4.25) sized card.
I don't know about you, but I always end up with designer paper that I feel just isn't my style. I have a couple of sheets that I have had forever. So instead of wasting it or it taking up space that I could use, I figured if we commit to a swap we'd force ourselves to use it. We may find that once we do make a card using this d/p that we wouldn't otherwise use, that it's not that bad after all.
If you choose to make cards, remember, all four cards do not have to match. Some of us may have d/p that just doesn't fit our style, however we have one sheet of one design and one sheet of another design. Therefore, we don't have enough of one design to make all four cards. Because of this the only rule to this swap is to use designer paper that you feel you would never otherwise use for whatever reason. Please to use sturdy cardstock as your base.
Just in case you truly can not figure out a way to use it. If you choose to swap out the paper itself you must choose which catagory your d/p fits in as far as size. And you must have at least 2 sheets. Please put how many sheets you plan on swapping. I will try to make sure you get that same number back, however, I can not promise anything. It will depend on the number of sheets I receive.
These cards and/or paper are due: June 2
Quantity for the cards - 3 & 1 You will not get one of your own, so make an extra one for yourself.
I will mail them out as soon as I receive all swaps. If I receive all of them early, I will send them out early. If your swap is received after the due date, I may have to send it back to you.
Mailing Instructions: Place swaps in a large baggie for waterproof purposes, Write your real name, your SCS name, and the name of the swap on a piece of paper and place inside the large baggie for identification purposes
Swap Return: Please include a S.A.S.E. (self-address stamped envelope). The amount of postage on your S.A.S.E should be the same amount used to mail your package to the hostess. Please include 2 additional stamps to ensure enough postage to return swaps. Additonal postage will be returned is not used. Please send only postage stamps. No dated stamps or metered mail. They will not be accepted by my postoffice. If you would prefer to use priority mail, please include one $4.95 priority stamp & a self-addressed priority label. If you are mailing from Canada please include $5 U.S. to cover return postage, and I will return whatever is left to you.
How to win prizes in your return envelope:
1. Sign up for 2 or more spots and you will recieve a prize in your return envelope.
2. I will choose mystery numbers in all the catagories. If you're name lands on one of them you will get a prize in your return envelope.
3. Be a chatterbox. Keep chatting within the forum and you will receive a prize in your return envelope.

Sally
I got you Sally-will do! It will show on the post previous to this one--not on the first page. I can't edit the first page because Dani set it up. SO I'll be adding it here!! Make sense???
Hello Sam and everyone! Sorry about Dani. Life can be challenging. Of course I know you will do an excellent job Sam!

So do I cut 2 sheets of 12x12 into 4 pieces each and that is consider one spot?
Sally
Yes, so you will have a total of 8 pieces for one spot. Same with 8 1/2x 11. I chose 8 1/2 x 11 because they were much easier to mail! But 8 pieces per spot...
Kathy, yes Dani is mailing your paper to me.
Thanks for answering Sally's question.
I'm in pain today for some reason so I may not be back on until tonight. Hope everyone has a great day!
I did good at the auction. I spent $49.00 and got both things I bid on. Got a neat basket (Tuffy has it now) that had in it 3 dish towels, heart shaped baking pan, brownie mix and brownie divider pan plus a really pretty little round end table. Love, hugs and prayers=grandmajudy
I would like to do 4 spots of the 12 x 12 paper. May sign up for something more later... gotta check my stash... lol
Sam will want to know if you want the 6x6 or 5 1/2 x 4 1/4 for your spots, Beeker's Friend. We cut the dp so it is easier to mail. I chose the smaller because it is easier to send and would love more to sign up for that spot, otherwise, I may get some of my own ugly dp back!! LOL
