Hello everyone, I am trying to move around the site and try to get to know some other carders. I am a stampin up demonstrator for one year now but I don't really know anyone I started selling because our demonstrator quit and I knew I could sell to the current group that she had. It has worked well I do workshops and I have put the money back into my craft and have an awesome workshop now. Now I want to get better and designing my own cards so I am not always CASEing. I am a Pampered Chef consultant and have done that for 11 years earned trips etc., But I have ALWAYS loved paper and paper crafts. So this is a neat fit for me. Now I want to push the envelope and challenge myself. Stampin up is different than Pampered Chef which is good but I do fell all alone and not a part of a group at all so I thought I would try and connect here for some learning and connecting!! Hope this works. I have a couple cards in my gallery that I have done myself and they aren't bad but I want to be so much better and I know its just putting in the time.

I'm pretty sure it means Pick a Theme but you should verify that with the hostess.

HTH and ...

Those ranks change as you add more posts. Here's a thread that explains it: What is a CARDSTOCK COLLECTOR???

I'm wondering what "subbing" means on my Get it Together event. I have a couple ladies that posted that and I have no clue what they mean. I don't think it means the same thing it does in teacher lingo LOL (substitute teacher)

TIA

Hi Joanne!

"Subbing" indicates that the person is just making a post within the thread in order to receive email updates when new posts are added.

An extra tip for "subbers: The same thing is accomplished by

clicking on the "Thread Tools" button in your post #1
then clicking on 'Subscribe'

Either way, someone is interested in watching your thread develop.

So glad I looked this up. Could not figure out "DP" to save my life. I knew the P was for paper, but... I feel so much better now. Phew.

Same here.

I am new to SCS and just joined a swap. I did not know what NVR meant until now!!

faberino · 02-15-2013, 09:29 AM

This is a very handy list. Sometimes when I try to decode some of them myself, it makes for very strange interpretations.

Just a big thank you for this list which I've been looking for and wanting to ask someone about all these acronyms which I have no idea what they mean.
Thanks again!
