Default Okinawa SUMMER Shoebox Swap

Ok, girls! Since lots of us are leaving/travelling, Michelle and I thought one last Shoebox swap was in order! We hope at least some of you can make it... And hopefully it will continue again in the fall!

We are thinking of Friday May 25th starting at 6:00PM. And due to the summer months, we would like the Theme to be Graduation or Kids Birthday. I don;t know about you, but the majority of cards I make are for my nieces/nephews/kids/kids' friends, and I always need those cards! So kids from toddler to Teenager is good.

I am going to help co-host, but Michelle is hosting, so she is opeining her home at 10225 A on KAB. From Gate 1: Turn RIGHT at the first light onto Schlegel and then make your first LEFT onto Adams. Go about 3 blocks on Adams then Make a RIGHT onto Love Circle and Michelle is the first Multiplex on the LEFT.

Not sure what the main course is yet, but as usual, we are asking you to each bring a side dish or dessert. We will update when we get all that figured out.


So far we have:

jm_donahoe - Jeanne Marie
shelby1of5 - Michelle
vsstampgirl - Victoria
militarystampingmom - Alicia
maddiandtysmom - Rosie

Oh I cannot wait for the fun to begin! Count me in, and let me know if you need any help. My calendars marked, so just let us know the time.

Okay, so now I have to check on a babysitter since my DH will be out of town. I sure hope she's available.

Well ladies... I was hoping I was going to be able to do this one, but it looks like I won't be able to make it after all. I was hoping to see everyone one last time before I leave the island - Hmmmm - maybe I can swing by quick just to say 'see ya'. Anyway, have fun - I'll miss you and our stamping sessions!!

Oh no, Diana! So sorry you will be missed!

Lisa and Abbey - YAY! I am so excited, of course you are welcome to come!

I also heard from Erin and she is pretty sure she can make it - YAY!

Rosie, I'm glad you will be there too! Let me know about Shauna and Heather so we can have one final count. So far I have:

jm_donahoe - me!
shelby1of5 - Michelle
vsstampgirl - Victoria
scraptabulous - Erin
crd_mkn_momma - Abbey
maddiandtysmom - Rosie
Lisa Hoekstra
Joeina
Mommy2Mike - Heather

And Maybes:
Shauna


So for anyone doing their cards this weekend, maybe just plan on 9 for card supplies?
I am so excited and can't wait for another stamp night! Michelle and I decided on Chicken for Dinner, and we will have drinks, so side items and desserts are greatly appreciated!

Hey all,
For those going Friday night...would anyone have 2 copies of the spring mini catalog for SU! that I could have/buy? I have 2 customers back in the states that would like them and I didn't order any when we moved here. Just thought I would check before I buy a whole pack on a supply order.
Thanks everyone

Hey girls, I'm going to have to bow out of this one. My hubby is taking me to the Urashima Dinner Theater that Friday to cheer me up since I've been so sick lately. I'm so sorry I'm going to miss out on this one. Have lots of fun and don't forget the pictures!

We will miss you Alicia, but have fun - Urushima Dinner Theaters sounds great!

Victoria, I did not order any of the Spring Minis, sorry!

Sorry, I didn't order any either. :(

So, who is making what kind of card? I'm embarrassed to say that I haven't come up with a design yet. I need a masculine Graduation card, so I've been trying to come up with something for that but it hasn't been working. Could we do a poll to see how many people are doing grad. cards and how many are doing birthday cards?

I think I counted 8 being the final count? Does that sound correct?
