Lunch Information:
Kelsey and I thought it will be best to keep food easy & inexpensive. We plan to order pizza and simply share the cost between all in attendance.
Please use current Stampin' Up! supplies if possible, however it is NOT required. Quality CS is a MUST!
We will make FULL cards using at least one accessory (ribbon, brads, buttons, etc).
Please have all card pieces pre-cut.
Please bring stamps or other items for your project that are not in the basic supply kit.
Please include instructions (aka: recipes), tips and any other important information.
Please bring ONE EXTRA completed card:You will use this as your sample at your stamping station. At the end of the day you will have the opportunity to give your card as a donation to a local charity.
You are not limited to just making cards. You may make other projects keeping in mind it should not take more than 10-12 mins to complete.
Please bring a BASIC SUPPLY KIT to include: Scissors, adhesive, pop dots or foam dots, cutting tool w/scoring blade & a black journaling marker.
At this time we are planning to swap with everyone. The final counts will be given closer to the event. FYI: if everyone prefers we split into two groups of Shoebox Swappers then we will advise of that change by February 1st.
**VIP** EVERYONE SHOULD BRING ALL CARD (PROJECT) KITS in a ZIPLOC BAG that includes all cut cardstock, embellishments, and instructions (recipes). You will need to have enough for everyone to complete the card or project you have created for this swap.
NAME TAGS
Name tags do not have any restrictions. Be as creative as you wish. You make your own tag using your real name, SCS name, or nickname. This project has absolutely no limitations. This is your time to show us your style and skills. The name tags will be judged and prizes will be given for the two best tags!
Kelsey (kbeth2002) and Tracy (stampin-sunnychick) will be the coordinators for this event.
Feel free to ask questions here in this thread or via pm to stampin-sunnychick or kbeth2002. THANKS SO MUCH!

I wish I could attend this one in Clarksville, but I just moved to Memphis, and it's about 3 hours away. That's too far of a drive for me.. darn it. Maybe I need to get busy and set up a shoe box swap in the Memphis area .. hehehe.
I'm excited so many are already showing interest! I know it will be a great day of stamping and FUN!

I didn't mean to post this and then run off but it has been a busy weekend. Kelsey and I will be chatting about the details this week as time allows...and we will get the plans underway.
I am so EXCITED that so many are interested in attending! WE WILL HAVE SUCH AN AWESOME TIME!
I *wish* you could as well...You should definitely check into planning one yourself...if there's not one already in your area. Best wishes!

I will share some information soon about a Registration Form, the 3 W's (what, when, where= deets *grin*), and a list of what to bring to a shoebox swap.
I'm going to say now that if anyone wishes to host a Swap other than the planned Shoebox Swap that is fine with me...Please just let me know what your plans are and I would be happy to share the details or a link to the details in the first post. I will add that if more than one or two ladies attempt such a feat you will lack participation...so please keep that in mind.
I have experienced several activities that have been successful at Shoebox Swaps/Gatherings and a few not-so-successful activities...I will discuss with Kesley those activities and together we will plan what will be best for our group of gals. Plus, there will be a few questions to answer on your Registration Forms that will help make the final decisions.
Registration Forms will be created once a venue has been established. Keep in mind there will be a small fee but we will do our best to keep it as affordable as possible.
Ladies thanks so much for volunteering to help us. WE will contact you when something comes up we need help with. Believe me that may be sooner than you really want! *wink*
Hello, I am very interested in attending, but would prefer not to have my real name posted if at all possible. I will PM my name and any other info you need.

I'm wondering if we should close this at 25 or 30 people. Let me know your thoughts.

Yes, 30 would be plenty and maybe even too many. I think at the 2 previous ones, we shot for 30 but ended up with only around 25.
Tonya- your 2cents is appreciated!! I want everyone to have a great time..which I KNOW we will!

Can someone explain a SHOEBOX swap what do yah do(just need a general idea) Thanks!!
I've copied from the TN get togethers....
Each participant will bring enough supplies for everyone else to make a FULL card of their sample card. You can either put each persons supplies in a ziploc or you can just have your stuff laid out for us to use. If you use glitter on your card, bring it...dimensionals, bring them.
Also the cards need to be high quality cardstock.
It doesn't *have* to be SU! as long as it is nice! Also, feel free to use any companies stamps..SU! CTMH, Inky Antics, Bella,Papertrey Ink.
You will need to bring your supplies for you to carry to each table. Glue, scissors, stamp cleaner, etc.
**If I have left something out, please add.**

I think that no more than 30..... Some will sign up and before it gets here something will come up and they can't make it. So you may have to have a waiting list.
