Procedures
Shoe box Swap
• Design a full card or 3-D item, and make 2 samples. Please try to use only SU products and "current" SU stamps. If you are unable to do this, it's okay but we love to show our creations to our customers and can't show cards that have been made with other company products.
• Put together a list of instructions to make it.
• Precut enough supplies to make your item for each person and place materials in a baggie. (If there are 10 people make 10 baggies of supplies). Include the directions in each baggie, just in case there isn’t enough time for a person to make your item at the actual swap meet. Baggies should include pre-cut cardstock and embellishments.
• Place the rest of your items (stamps, ink, punches, markers, WWC, pencils, etc.) and the baggies into a shoe box. All individual items in your shoebox should be labeled with your name.
• When the shoebox starts, Each person will set up their stuff at a station and then everybody rotates around the room and makes each project. You can go at your own pace that way.
• Please bring your own adhesive, scissors and bone folder. If your card requires special adhesive such as glue dots, please include that in your shoebox.
What to Bring
• Bring enough supplies for each participant plus two extra sets to be used for parts when people mess up. You may also want to bring your camera. Just in case you don’t have enough time to make all of the projects, you can snap a picture of the sample so you may complete it at home. You’ll also want to take pictures of all of your SCS sistahs!
• Your address book so you can add all your new friends’ names, phone numbers, and email addresses!
• Bring your own adhesive, scissors and bone folder. Label these since they will be moving around.
• A snack/beverage to share with your “sistahs”
Other Important Tips
• This is for adults only, so please register only if you’re 18 or older. Please make other arrangements for children.
• We’ll provide name tags, but if you have one from a previous SCS or convention event, feel free to bring it.
• Feel free to bring your ‘Garage Sale" items for trade (or sale, if it is a retired item) with other attendees.
• Make sure to bring enough for each person to make your swap item. We will have a final count a week or so before the event.
• Bring everything needed for the card; stamps, ink, embellishments, hole punches, cutting tools, scrub & mist...etc. Label everything with your name! Each person should bring her own basic adhesive to carry around from station to station.
• It goes without saying (or this case saying), please bring your best work.
Optional 3D Swap
We will also have an optional 3D swap. If you would like to participate, let me know and just show up with a prepared 3D item of your choice to swap with the attendees. Examples of 3D items could be coasters, candles, dominoes, accordion books, coaster albums, magnetic bookmarks, glass bead magnets, etc. Again, try to only use Stampin’ Up! materials. After the registration deadline check back on this thread to see how many 3D swap participants we have, and therefore how many swaps you’ll need to prepare. If you have any questions about the 3D swap, feel free to post on this link so I can answer it.
