SWAP CLOSED - House Mouse , Hoppers, and Gruffies Card Kits

[JanetJ]

Welcome to Round 11! If you've swapped with us before, welcome back to old friends! If you haven't swapped with us before, we always love to have new critter lovers join us!!!

Card kits are SO popular with people now!

DESCRIPTION: There will be 3 categories - House Mouse, Happy Hoppers, and Gruffies. I will swap within each category, so join one or all three. You may have multiple spots as well!
CARD KITS INCLUDE:
1. 2-3 images (House Mouse, Happy Hopper, or Gruffies) all the same, stamped in permanent black (Versafine, Stazon, or Palette Noir) OR a Copic black (Memento, Adirondack) and NOT colored in. Please label your packet with ink type.
2. Two 6” x 6” sheets of coordinating Designer Paper.
3. At least 12” of ribbon, trim, cord, or other ‘fiber’.
4. Set (4-6) of coordinating embellishments. These can be anything like brads, buttons, primas, gemstones, etc.
5. Optional items that really raise a kit’s ‘Wow’ factor are stamped sentiments, punched shapes, sample photos of cards made with the kit’s supplies, anything else fun you can think of!

DO YOUR BEST WORK, BE PROUD!

QUANTITY: 5 + 1; receive 5 in return (+1 is for the hostess). You will not get back one of your own - so make one for your self!!

DUE DATE: Your swaps are due in my hands by October 15, 2009. If not received by that time, they will be returned. I will have them swapped back and mailed out to you by October 30, 2009.
MAILING INSTRUCTIONS:
Place large Ziploc full of kits in a self-addressed, stamped envelope (bubble envelope recommended to protect kit contents) and then place in mailing envelope.
Be sure to use stamps because many P.O. s will not accept meter strips and make sure postage is equal to amount it cost to mail your kits. Include a couple of extra stamps in case your returns kits are heavier; I will return all unused postage.

CANADIAN and INTERNATIONAL SWAPPERS are very welcome!

Looks like we have quite a few talented kit makers already jumping in -- hurray!

[wiggydl]

oh I haven't done one of these 'kits' yet. It sounds like fun. I think I will have to think about it though, I only own a few full sized HM stamps and no hoppers or gruffies.....yet!! I'll think about it and confirm one way or another soon!!

[JanetJ]

I think the kits are fun!! Let me know what you decide.

Anyone Else?

The kits are really the best of both worlds -- you get to see other swappers' favorites, but you also get to personalize the supplies into your own style on whatever project you choose!

[tackertwosome]

By 'green', do you mean the one that is sort of turquoise or the one that is more like a close cousin of True Thyme?

Yeah "Suede" - I thought it would be a brown.

[JanetJ]

Janet

Rich Razzleberry -- a pinkish purple
Bermuda Bay -- a turquoise
Dusty Durango -- a rusty orange
Crushed Curry -- bright yellow
Soft Suede -- very close to the old IC True Thyme, a brownish green (almost a military green)

I know there are sneak peeks out there, but I didn't save any of the links.

Did anyone else notice the catalog says good July 1, 2009 -June 30, 2010? Are they going back to one catalog/year? Actually, I'd prefer that -- two a year was just too confusing.

Thank You!! I was wondering what the colors were!
Also, I agree - I hope they go back to a yearly catalog. I didn't like those 2 catalogs in a year!
