Hey Heidi,
I'm in La Mesa, I'm glad your here I almost thought I was the only San Diegan!
Maybe you should subscribe to this thread that way you can keep up with what's going on.
Depending on the amount of replies maybe we can do something early December, a little holiday gathering! It may be to soon to do mid Nov and Thanksgiving pretty much rules out the end of the month.
Talk to you soon.
Lisa
Sounds Good, there are alot of San Diego girls around, I'm just always busy so it's hard to meet up with anyone !
I'll subscribe to this & hope to meet up in Dec

Yeah! A shoebox swap would be really fun!! Let me know if we get something together! I can get us a place too. We may have to charge a fee per person to pay for use of the room (It's big!) but it won't be too much depending on how many people sign up. It is in north inland county just off the 15 (in Sabre Springs.) Or does anyone else have a place in mind already??
Count me in! I would love to meet everyone. I'm also in Sabre Springs, not too far away from Tina. My schedule is very busy until after the holidays though so if we waited until January it would be better for me. I have checked into the Hamburger Factory in Poway as they have a big room in the back, and all they would require is for us to eat lunch there, although I would need to double check that with the manager. They have yummy hamburgers too!
Hey ladies,
I guess I forgot to subscribe to this thread, alot has gone on since I last checked in. I have no problem traveling a little to get there but depending on the amount of people we get together, I'd like to try to keep the costs down. I'd liek us all to have fun and participate.
Let's see is everyone (so far) OK waiting until Jan or do we want to get together in Dec?
Let me know and we'll set a date and start looking into places, hamburgers, YUMMO! I don't eat them often but when I do, I want them to be worth it, LOL!
Talk to you ladies soon,
Lisa
January actually works really well for me! Later in January works even better. I am working at the Aunt Amy's Rubber Stamping convention in Riverside on January 28th. If any of you gals find yourself in the Riverside area, would love to meet ya!!!
I am in OC but willing to travel. between thanksgiving/xmas or post-new years, are good for me. judging from the other responses, sounds like it's shaping up for jan.
I don't think a restaurant will be too happy with our using their back room for the amount of time a showbox swap would take. I'm not familiar with the place so maybe I'm wrong. :confused:
January is probably better for me too...we have family coming in Dec & DH will be here & there on the ship, plus lots going on with the kids.
Can't wait

Hi ladies,
How does Jan 21st sound? I was thinking do we want to do an overnight thing or just a 1 day event? If we do overnight maybe we can get adjoining rooms and set up card tables?
If we decide 1 day does Sat the 21st sound good?
I also figure that we'll get the furthest person from SD and find a place in the middle, sound fair?
Looking forward to it.
Who is doing the VSN??? Let's blow them out of the water.
Lisa
January 21st is iffy for me - BUT I may be able to move a couple things around. I absolutely want to meet everyone and glean (sp?) some stamping skills from the SoCal Gals!
From previous posts, I am pretty sure I am not the furthest away - in fact I may be the middle ;) I'll keep an eye on this thread to see when a final date is determined and a location.
I think one all-day event is probably better than an overnighter. if we start early then we can play longer. this, coming from a night owl. believe me, I am no morning person but some things are worth getting up early for! :p
jenny
I can't do overnight as I don't know if DH will be here or not but I can get a sitter during the day..So far we have nothing planned 1/21...I'll keep checking in.

A day thing would work best for me also as the dh may have something out of town going on and finding someone to watch the kids overnight is a challenge. Jan 21st looks good for me too. Let me know if you need help finding a place. I love having soemthing in January to look forward too after the holidays are over!
Now can you all please send me your location so I can start working on a place to go...I know we have someone in Ventura and that's about 3-4 hours north, is that the furthest??
Lisa,
This is my first post to this thread...but, this sounds like fun and I may be able to get some friends to join in. I live in Ventura County as well, Simi Valley to be exact. Please keep us posted as to place and time. DH has to work that day and my BD is during that next week....so this will be great fun!!
Jeri
Hi All! I live in LA (Burbank to be exact) and depending on where you are planning on meeting I would love to meet some fellow SCSers. When would you need to know by?
This is my first post to this thread, but I would love to join. January 21st works for me... I live in Pasadena... close to LA. I'll mark this thread and keep checking back for a location.
Would we be doing scrapbooking or card making? A shoebox swap was thrown out there... is that a possibility?
I'm excited to meet more people who are as crazy about stamping as I am!
First I'm soo happy that you are all so excited! We are going to have a blast!
I believe we will be doing a shoebox swap. Can someone please explain to me exactly how those work, I've never done one but it sounds fun.
If you have a suggestion for the days activities, please let us know.
I don't need an official RSVP at this point, I'm just going to do a general search of locations and go by the people who have responded plus a few.
I would also suggest that everyone subscribe to this thread if you haven't already...that way you won't a thing.
I hope that answers some questions...feel free to ask any more or even give suggestions.
Lisa
Lisa,
I have the 'rules' for a shoebox swap, as I took them from this site some time ago...I just have to find them and then I'll post them. Thanks for this...think it's going to be sooo much fun!!
Jeri
Hi! This is my first time posting but your gathering sounds like a GREAT IDEA! I live near Mission Viejo - pretty much central to everything you've all mentioned! Now I need to figure out how to keep in contact with this forum/thread/sub-forum (whatever, I still haven't figured out the lingo!) Count me in!
Well, I'm taking a break between dishes. I'm working on a couple of places for or day and I'll let you all know in about a week where we'll meet up.
Have a safe and delicious holiday!~
Lisa
Have FUN! I'd like to have come but I have a SAB workshop already scheduled for that day. I live in Santee, not too far from La Mesa, Lisa, just down the 125............
Yes please also join join us for SoCal StampMania III as Joy mentioned in April. Click on the link in my siggy (or the one on Joy's) for all the details!

Hey girl
We'll have to get together for the next VSN, I'm in La Mesa!!!
Nice to have an SCS close by!
Hi ladies,
I've been checking things out in Huntington beach. What do you all think?
The furthest person is in Ventura...Huntington Beach is about 1hr 45 mins from both Ventura and SD?
Let me know if that works for you all and I'm going to start calling for locations, we can always go a little inland if it works better.
This is my first event so I'll take any and ALL advice or help!

Can't wait to meet all of you!
HB sounds great to me! thanks for doing all the legwork, Lisa/ScramperNut!
getting very excited about this!!!
jenny
HB sounds good to me....and it is just about as centrally located as you can get. Wish I lived there, maybe I could help with a location...but it's been eons since I lived that far south. Thanks for doing this...
Ok girls,
Now that I'm seeking a spot I need some definite numbers...please check your calendars and let me know for sure if you can attend, let me know by next Fri Dec. 9th.
Also let me know how many people will be joining you, friends and family are welcome!

Any help or suggestions with locations would be great. I know things change so much but if you have some names I don't mind calling and checking on it.
I'm so excited!!!!
We get to do VSN on the 7th and our get together on the 21st...January is the new holiday season!!!!!!
Lisa
You had asked for numbers and I forgot to send them to you....I think there will be me and maybe 3 others from Simi Valley. I'm, too am so excited about this get together.
Since I haven't been there in eons....if there is an Elks, Moose or something like that, maybe they would be willing to donate the hall space provided we open it up to the members. Just a thought.
Are we doing a shoebox? Need to know that as soon as possible along with the rules you are going to use. You are 'da bomb' for doing this!! Thanx!
Thank you South Cali stampers
WOW!
1 day or overnight???
Can I get some RSVP's??
