Third Reisterstown, MD Shoebox Card Swap - Saturday, 19 April 2008
Hi everyone!
The next Reisterstown Shoebox Card Swap will be held on Saturday, 19 April, from 9am-3pm, at All Saints' Episcopal Church. There's room for 25 people, with each person bringing a shoebox swap for everyone to make, and something to share for lunch. There will be a $5 charge, payable in advance, to cover the rental of my church hall.
All cards are to be full cards. There's no theme for the swap, but please bring enough supplies for everyone to make your card, including all cardstock, stamps, inks, embellishments, and tools. Include one sample, along with stamping and assembly instructions, in your shoebox. Envelopes are optional. Please make sure that all of your supplies are labeled with your name or initials, in case items tend to wander during the day. In addition to your shoebox containing your card kits and supplies, bring your own adhesive, bone folder, and scissors to use throughout the swap. All cards should be made using Stampin' Up! stamps, cardstock, and inks. The stamp sets and ink/cardstock colors can be current or retired ones. No restrictions on embellishments.
Please sign up via this on-line thread if you'd like to join us. When you sign up, indicate if you can bring either a beverage, snack, or dessert to share. I'll provide ice and pizza for lunch, along with the paper products and cups. Then please send me your $5 fee,along with the attached registration form, and I'll confirm your seat once I receive your payment. If you find that you have to cancel after you've paid - hope not :( , I'll return your money only if I'm able to fill your slot with someone else.
Thanks! I hope many of you can join us for some Springtime Stampin'!

JoAnn
Hi JoAnn - I'm so glad you can make it, and are bringing a friend. We all look forward to meeting her! Thanks - be sure to tell Mary to sign up if she can come too! See you next month, Cathy
Can you put me down as 3 tenative as I'm awaiting to hear from two others that would be joining me. We've never been and I've been trying to get to one that fits into my schedule.
Karen - Will do. I hope you all can make it - let me know, and I'll also give you directions to Reisterstown. What are your friends' names? If you can make it, you will have a great time, I promise! Cathy
Sorry but it's not going to work DANG IT!!!! and a few other choice words. Between my 2 soccer games on opposite side of the state basically. One friend who would have been able to just found out her DH's deployment date and they are going to do a little traveling before he goes. So, keep me in mind for next time. Hopefully, fingers crossed, cuz I really want to go to one and just have a good time.
Kathi, JoAnn, Lynn - Good news! I did receive your payments - I found them in a small pile of mail that my daughter brought in the house one day this week. So glad they're here!! Thanks for checking - Cathy
Everyone - It looks like we're holding at ten people signed up for the swap. Would everyone be interested in and able to make two cards each? That way, we'll go home with twenty cards - eighteen new ones for everybody. The swap will likely end sooner than 3pm also, although we'll be in no rush.
Let me know if this'll be ok - thanks! Cathy
Hey Cathy,
So are we holding at 10 people for this swap with everyone preparing 2 cards.
I am going out of town on Tuesday (grandmother's funeral), and will be gone a week, so I need to get my swaps prepared as much as possible.
Let me know.
Thanks

Cris, everyone - Since we'll be a small, cozy group, let's each design two different cards (two shoeboxes.) In each one, bring your sample, your instructions, and supplies for nine. We'll each end up with 18 new cards! I'll post directions, and do a double check for snacks, drinks, etc. We won't need to overdo, and I'm still planning to provide pizza for lunch. Can't wait to see you on the 19th - keep watching the thread! Cathy
