hi guys, sorry I missed this weekend's get together but I was stick all weekend - feeling a little better today but not enough to go to work. Hopefully tomorrow or I'll be behind!! Anyway, sure hoping for next month, I've missed the last two!
Joel's eye surgery went well on Friday. He looks a little devilish, because his eyes are bloodshot and will likely be for about a week. He has also been a bit crabby and clingy, but nothing horrible or unexpected. His eyes are now tracking together, which is a big difference, and you can tell by the way he was looking at things that he is seeing differently. The doctor said that there is a 1 in 5 chance that he may need to have another surgery to further correct his eyes, but that we won't know if that is necessary for 3 or 4 months. We are hoping that this did it, and that he isn't that 1 in 5.
poor baby! sure glad to hear it went well and can't wait to visit with you both next month!
I would love to join in stamping with you all! Would you mind? I have no upline anymore and have never had a downline and don't have anyone to do swaps with etc... Would you put me on your list so I know when you have events? I would even like to host one sometime if you need a place. My basement is set up for stuff like that.
Emily
(p.s. I have a ton of stamp sets I am trying to sell for about $5/each and my neighborhood is having a garage sale over the weekend. If you are interested at all, let me know and I'll send the address. I am in the Ballwin area. I have a thread over in the BST forum listing all the sets.)

Hi Emily and a Big Welcome!!! As you see here in our thread, we love to have people join our group! We have a wonderful time each time we get together! Lots of great talent here, and we have lots of fun with our themes! Next month Julie is hosting in Columbia, Il. It's not all that far for us especially if some of us car pool like JoAnn is mentioning.
Just follow the thread by subscribing to it, and it will be on your list of items to follow when you log onto SC each time.
Again, welcome! Can't wait to meet you!

I would like to welcome you to the group too! We try to meet once a month and lately, it has been at Barnes and Noble across from Crestwood Plaza. Most of us don't have the space and this rrom is nice and big. We aren't allowed to seel anything there but have the room from 1 till 5 with no charge.
We also can't take in food. They have a cafe where we buy our drinks, sandwiches or desserts.
I am interested in your garage sale this Saturday, if my grandsons' soccer games aren't too early. I finally got my daughter to the dark side! haha
I'm sure there is more questions. We will gladly answer them. October 23rd.
is our nest meet at Julie's. We will be carpooling there, so you are very welcome to hitch a ride. Jo Ann
Julie, I just colored Popcorn bear and used Flower Soft of the daisies! He is just adorable!
I will try and find an image using Flower Soft for our meet. I think my bear would take too long. Is there Holiday color for poinsettas?
Jo Ann
Do you need me to bring anything?
Julie,
I am soooo glad it won't be at b&n this month. hurray. Back to the good old unboring way of stamping. Now I don't have to find another group! Three cheers for you!
Anyway I will be there. Thanks
Sandy
Ladie, I feel like I've completely lost touch, it's been forever since I've stamped with you all. Hopefully I can rejoin soon. In the meantime, does anyone have the Bella stamp "sistahoodabellas"? i used this a couple years ago for a friend who has three sisters and she has asked me again for this stamp. If someone has it you can send me a message. I'll be happy to meet you or come to your house to get some pages stamped. thanks!!

Melanie HI We have missed you. Sure hope to see you again soon. I will check my bella's right now and see if I have that one. biab
Dee
Melanie, I don't have that one. I think it was Tracy that had it. Send her a pm and she will write you back asap I am sure.
Ladies, my October is filled. If anyone wants to reserve the room at Barnes and Noble for a meet, contact me and I will give you the contact information.
Julie is hosting at her house on the 23rd. If anyone needs directions or a ride, post so we can set you up.
Jo Ann
I love our meetings at B&N and look forward to seeing everyone! I especially love that we all have such different ideas on the same topic-it is exciting to see so much talent get together!!! I would like to have a gettogether in October-at B&N-who do I contact?
Who do I call @ B&N for room reservations? Did you mean you cannot attend any October events? Thanks D.
My weekends are full with the twins first birthday party and an event at work.
My only free one is the 30th and I figured that might be too late in the month.
I e-mail Beth or Greg at crm2722@bn.com. I say the dates and time (1-5) and wait for them to give me an ok. Give your name and that you are with Splitcoaststampers. They are pretty prompt about getting back.
Julie is hosting the 23rd. Have you met her yet? We can all get together to
car pool to her house. It is just across the river in Columbia.
Are you planning on going? Jo Ann
I can make the 23rd-so far, my husband hasn't thrown any hunting weekends my way for this month.(though I like the B&N location for being more central) The 30th is Boy Scouts family camp, so I'm out for that day. I emailed B&N and am patiently waiting reply for availabilities. With the holidays approaching-where do we stand on our gettogethers, are we trying to stick with the middle of the months?

Does that mean you can host a camp or that you can come with us over to Julies. I promise you that you will have fun!!
I'm a tentative Yes for Oct 23rd. My daughter will be home for Spring break. Likely she will have her own plans but just in case she want to hang with the "rents" (parents), I want to keep the day free for now.
Julie - Let me know when we need a definitive answer and I'll ante up.
I am booked 2-3 and possibly 9-10 but the rest of the month is open. I will pencil in the 23rd at Julie's. Let me know if we have another one the middle of the month. Will put on my "creative thinking cap" and try and come up with something "stunning"
On Fridays I participate in the Unity Stamp Company Friends with Flair Blog Hop and there may just be a surprise for one visitor. Saturday is World Card Making Day and in honor of that special day I will be having a BLOG CANDY Giveaway, so check out my blog post for that on Saturday, October 2, 2010.

I'm not touching the 23-that is Julies day-I was hoping to be able to host an event in October besides Julies-just to keep us crafting-I have not heard from B & N as of today-will call tomorrow, at this point I might as well see what they have available for November and December, right?
Julie
I have bad news! Well good news actually - but bad news for the swap. Jeff and I are going to Puerto Viarta for a "work" sales thing with Jeff's work - he won a free sales incentive trip. Anyway - we leave on the 20th so I won't be able to make it this month. I am bummed b/c I was looking forward to the old fashioned shoe box swaps like we used to have! But you better believe I will definately be there in December!!!!!
Did I miss something? When did become a sheduling thing to host "mid month"? I thought the hostess just picked a date that was convenient? There have been so many changes going on - just trying to keep up :0)

I had figured we would try and meet in November. Let's hear feedback
on the availability of us all.
Julie wants to host in December (11th). I don't know how everyone's
schedule is for December. We don't travel for the Holidays.
DaNette, do you want me to contact B&N? The other lady, Jolene, was so
quick to respond. Beth took her place. The e-mail she sent me had the same address that we had always used. Maybe that has changed and we weren't
notified.
Let me know if I can help! Jo Ann
Heather, no we haven't changed as how we decide to meet. We still try
and find a middle point that is convient. Hope to see you soon!
I would like to offer to host January. We already have Julies fabulous Christmas party planned in December - so I thought I would throw it out there! As soon as I have a date in mind I will post.
Thanks!
I am ready to start a list for this October 23rd swap at my house! We are doing Fall or Holiday cards. It should be fun! I am really close to the South County area, just across the river. Please PM for directions if you are new.
The event in December is not a swap at my house it is a Christmas Craft workshop where we make gifts for the holidays. We make it a SCS party and it is always a lot of fun, feel free to PM about this also.

I should be able to make both events. I think I still have directions to your house in my car from the last event. If not I'll PM.

Why don't we just shoot for November. I'm available every weekend but the
13th.
I can't get over how slow they were to get back to you. Jolene would reply
before I got off the computer!
Jo Ann
Hi DaNette, this is Leanna (Upper Cuts). I found your post/thread! Let me know what is decided about the 30th. I checked my calendar and it would work for me.
Ladie, I feel like I've completely lost touch, it's been forever since I've stamped with you all. Hopefully I can rejoin soon.

Hey Melanie, long time no see -are you doing craft show again this year?
Yes, Dee was right, of course! I have Sistahoodabellas but unfortunately it's with a friend of mine in Michigan. She is mailing it back next week. When do you need it by?
Hi everyone! I have just found out that one of my cards has been chosen as a finalist in the Inkadinkadoo Creative Contest! Now it is up to the public to vote and I need your help. You can vote once a day through October 31 at the link below, so please head over there and help me out. My card is "Thinking of You" in White, Aqua and Kraft with the sentiment in black and two deocrative pins and ribbon.

It took about 15 minutes! My password and name didn't match, or so they said. Reset 3 times and still wouldn't work. So I set up a new one with my aol account. Congrats! It is a very nice card, Carol.
