Got 'em! I can't wait! I'm going to be having quite the stamping weekend - I have tickets for the Stamp Getaway at Gateway Center in Collinsville as well! Lots of firsts for the weekend - how exciting! :-)
I'll be at the Stamp Convention in Collinsville as well! I'm so sorry to miss another get together--I am hosting a baby shower for my downline that afternoon.
Let me know the July date...I'm also happy to host (I live in the city).
Thank you Kim for hosting another very fun swap! I am glad I was able to make it and meet a few new faces!
I think I forgot my sheet of bellas I stamped, but if anyone picked it up please let me know. It had a few grad bellas, flower bellas and wine bellas.
You know I would lose my head if it wasn't attached! Theresa/Melissa did I ever let you gals know I found my aviation paper? Well hubby actually found it, under the seat in his car. I forgot I brought his car to your stamp camp.
Anyways thanks again Kim and I hope to see you all in July!

Thanks so much Kim for being such a wonderful hostess. I had a great time and loved meeting our three newest stampers! I've uploaded the pictures (the ones that turned out...I really need to work on my photography skills) and you can see them HERE.
I had such a great time meeting and swapping with all you ladies!! I hope I can make it to another one while I am working here in St. Louis. Kim, your daughter is so sweet. Melissa, congrats on your great news! Wine bella? I missed a wine bella? Well, something to look forward to another time. :-) Thanks again guys and it was a wonderful afternoon. Tomorrow I'm back to the convention to spend the day! LOL!! :-)
I had a really great time stamping and meeting you all. I hope to make it to the one next month. Thank you Melanie for letting me use your adhesive I learned I need to bring extra next time.
Hi girls! Just wanted to thank everyone for stamping on Sat. I had so much fun with all of you! Thanks Kim for being such a great hostess, and so glad to finally meet Lynn and Beth! Can't wait until next month!
WoW! What beautiful cards! It looks like a fun time was had by all. I sure don't ever want to miss again! Lynn, thanks for posting the pictures of cards and STL stampers.
I wanted to say thank you to all of you wonderful ladies. I had a great time with all of you on Saturday; so many wonderful creations. I was so nice to meet Jenny and Tracy; hopefully we didn't scare you off for furture gatherings. I hope the Inkspot was a productive trip for the ladies who went. It usually costs me quite a bit when I go there
Can't wait for next month's get together. Hopefully we will have a hostess soon. Looking forward to seeing you all again real soon.
I'd be happy to host for July, don't know if the Th is a good day. Anyone have a theme they want to work on?
That's awesomely nice of you. Would you like for me to co-host? (since my house is the size of a shoe box and I can't have an event with more than 3 people?????)...I could supply all the food/snacks ;)
Hummm....a theme....perhaps we could all go with a certain color scheme, or color family...or perhaps since it's smack dab in the middle of summer, they could be summer cards (beach, BBQ, poolside, relaxing, etc) Anyone have other ideas???? Come on...let's hear em!
How about we each make a card with our all around FAVORITE stamp set? Everyone then will get to try a new stamp set. For instance, I have my new Papertrey set with the strawberries, that I would love to use and share.
I can sign up for August...it would give me an excellent incentive to clean up the basement again. And the kids will be back in school by then, so I'll actually have time to clean it. *snort*
And I think for August, we'll do NEW SU! stuff...either stamps or colors or bling or whatever! That will give us all time to GET the new stuff.
Hi. I am new to Splitcoast. I would really like to be a part of your stamping group. I am a little bit south of South County. Do you have an organized group of stampers, or is there room for more? Sadly, my house isn't big enough for 12ish people - but I could co-host maybe and bring snacks, drinks...and whatever is needed.
HI! It sounds like you all have SO much fun and I am so jealous ... I live in St. Charles and would love, love, love to join you all sometime if you have room and are interested in expanding! I'd also be willing to host sometime. Please let me know
Kimberly

Welcome to both Jennifer and Kimberly!!!!! We would love to have you join us in the future. Yes this group is a fun bunch of caring and talented women. Keep a look out for info in July's gathering; hopefully you can join us.
Hi Jennifer and Kimberly! I was new to the group in May and I have to tell you that this is the sweetest and most creative group of women! They are so much fun! Hope you guys can make it to one of the gatherings! :0)
oh, i am also super excited about being able to join you all! does anyone live in st. charles? i am definitely willing and able to travel ... i have lived out here for almost a year but mid-town feels a little more like home still (we lived in maplewood). i will keep an eye out for more details about july's event

Reason: why can't i remember to put my name ... geezz :) hee hee!
Kimberly, there are several of us in St. Charles/St. Peters! Heather (hhroady), Theresa (TheresaMarie) and I all live about 5 minutes from each other and we are out by Mid Rivers Mall.
i live off of kisker road in the meadow ridge subdivision. i am technically in unincorporated st. charles city but we are kind of wedged between st. peters and cottleville.
i am a sahm with two little ones ... a wild child boy 3.5 and a girly girl who just turned 2. i have a part time job in creve coeur. my sister and i are co-SU! demonstrators basically to support our out of control stamping habits! we are kind of orphaned demos so we have a small customer base but mostly we stamp together along with my mom who is getting ready to move to florida :( i know a few people in st. charles county but most of my friends live closer to st. louis city and are in the same boat in terms of having little ones. so that makes it hard to get together. i am really excited about meeting some other stampers and especially some close to home!
How exciting, we are getting lots of wonderful new people.
For the July gathering, I should have room for 12 at my house, unfortunately the tables are in different rooms but we can work it out. If it gets too big I can always move to mom's or use our clubhouse.
I'll wait for you ladies to decide on the theme, I leave Sunday for my Alaskan cruise (I know you are green with envy :mrgreen. I'll be back on 6/29.

I prolly won't be able to make it on the 14th. I get back from FL on the 9th and we have to somehow get our bird back from my In-laws in Springfield (IL). Have fun gals!

Not sure if a date has been decided - I saw someone mention the 14th. I can't make that day (darn graduation open houses!) but if it ends up being on 21st I can be there! Just let me know - you guys are so much fun!!
I got some neat new stamps from Ink Spot that look like ribbons and bows - so cute, haven't tried them yet but can't wait!
Anyway, I'll wait to hear a date and let you know if I can make it! :-)
Hi girls!! I want to sign up for whatever day you guys choose! I love getting together with you guys! If you do have it on the 14th I might have to drop depending on time - I have a new catalog open house on the 15th and I tend to get a little stressed no matter how ready I think I am.
I will keep watching the post to see if you pick a theme! :0)
I'd like to join in July once a date is picked. I've been trying the last couple months since I signed on and I couldn't work it out - maybe this time.

Either date works for me...I think Melanie needs to make the call....MEL...are you out there???
While we're waiting for the July date to be firmed up - I thought I'd reiterate something I mentioned it this month's get together! For those that don't know me - I'm working in St. Louis but live in Michigan. I'm in Chesterfield at the Residence Inn and it has a great gatehouse with lots of tables that aren't used except for breakfasts on the weekend. So, I'd be willing to host if that's not too out of the way for everyone. Just something to keep in mind (oh, and there's a pool too!). :-)
Right now I'm contracted until end of August but it could be extended. I probably won't know until the end of July! :-) If August is already spoken here I'll just wait and see if I'm still here for September! :-) Thanks!!
July 14th or 21?
Too early to think of August?
