Do you or Joy have any idea how many people signed up? I know Joleen got my check. She pm'ed me awhile back. Please keep me updated with any info you get.
Jami, I know there were about 10 or 12 of us. I got the hotel conference room, but haven't heard back from Joleen. I would like to cancel the room if this event is being cancelled. I will try to get in contact with her again.
I would really like to get together with everyone. Shall we still try to pursue for this weekend or re-schedule for a more organized event?
I would also like to get together. Maybe we could still pull off a half day thing if this doesn't work out. Maybe we could just do a shoebox project swap or something like that??? I might be able to get a room at my church for a very small fee. Do you have a list of who signed up? Any way to contact people?
Maybe I'm jumping the gun.
Let me know what you find out. I'll be leaving for work soon and no access to SCS till I get home.
Jami, that sounds like a better idea. I like the idea of a shoebox swap. Maybe we should postpone it.... and do a half day thing somewhere. The church sounds fine. Or even a clubhouse somewhere!
I'm not sure of who all was attending. She just kind of gave me that figure. I was going to bring my sister and my cousin. Emily (and her mom?) were coming.... But I don't remember the list.
Please keep my informed about what y'all plan to do. I'm a fairly new demo, and I'm not exactly sure what a "shoebox swap" is, but I would love to find out and participate. Thanks

What you do is design a card for everyone to make. Then you put all of the supplies in a "shoebox"- pre-cut cardstock, stamps, ink, fibers, whatever you need to complete the card.
Then each person takes turns going to each shoebox and completing the card following the sample. When it's over, you have one card from each person. It's kinda like a "Do-it-yourself Card Swap".
It's a great way to learn new techniques because if you have any questions, you can always ask the person who designed the card for help!
that is awesome.... I would love to participate...especially if it's a day or half day thing. I just put in a huge order from the new catty (had to wait until we moved before I could order any new stuff) too bad it won't be here by then....anywho...please keep me updated I am very interested and my mom would probably come with me :o)

I couldn't go the weekend that it was originally going to happen, but if it ends up being re-scheduled I'm interested in going.
Shoebox swaps are great!

I got the e-mail also. At this point I was quite surprised, thinking for sure the event would be postponed. Hmmm...
Emily - e-mail or pm me and I will forward Joleen's e-mail to you. I think you are on the e-mail distribution. Maybe your address is incorrect or something.
CreativeDiva - if you want to go you might try e-mailing Joleen. It's a rather small group. Also I'm pretty certain we will do another gathering (shoebox swap type thing) probably in the Long Beach area sometime in the next couple of months.
Hi ladies! Just wanted to make sure you all got my email about what to bring and such. Please let me know if you haven't so I can forward it to you.
I am moving to Huntington Beach in about a month. Maybe after a while we can have a get together out in the LA/OC area! That would be great fun!
Anyhow, I am looking forward to meeting you all! It isn't too late to sign up so let me know via email ([email protected]) if you're interested in more information!
