You're currently viewing Splitcoaststampers as a GUEST. We pride ourselves on being great hosts, but guests have limited access to some of our incredible artwork, our lively forums and other super cool features of the site! You can join our incredible papercrafting community at NO COST. So what are you waiting for?
Our next shoebox swap will be on Saturday, March 27, from 9:00 a.m. until 5:00 p.m., at Faith Fellowship Church, 4375 Ebenezer Road, Perry Hall, MD. No particular theme! There is room for 31 people (over 18 years of age please) to attend with each person bringing a shoebox swap for 30 people to make and something to share for lunch. There is a $10 non-refundable charge per person for hall rental and expenses which will be due to me prior to the swap. Once you sign up, I'll PM you my address to send your payment to. Everyone who signs up must have a SCS ID to make this fair for everyone attending. All cards are to be full cards. Please bring enough supplies for everyone to make your card including all cardstock, stamps, inks, embellishments, tools, etc., along with your own adhesive and scissors to use on all the projects we make. Please make sure all of your supplies are labeled with either your name or initials, so we all go home with the stuff we brought. We'd like each person to have a sample and typed instructions in their box telling how to make your card, and also have their swaps in baggies or envelopes containing everything each person needs to do your card. This really helps make the swap go more smoothly.
All cards or projects must be made using Stampin' Up stamps, cardstock, inks, etc. Stamps and colors can either be current or retired.
Please bring something to share for lunch. When you sign up for the swap, please post what you�ll bring for lunch. We do not have use of an oven, so please do not bring anything to be baked or that needs to be heated up. Crock pots are welcome. There is a refrigerator we can use. There will be several door prizes throughout the day. And we will also be doing the card ministry drawings again, so feel free to bring your cards to donate. These can be old swap cards, card fronts, or even one of the cards you are doing for the swap. You girls truly are a blessing helping me keep the card rack stocked. At the January swap, I collected over 400 cards � thank you so much!!
To sum up what you�ll need to bring � shoebox swap (no theme), something to share for lunch, your adhesive/scissors/etc. to make the swaps, and cards for the card ministry if you'd like to donate any.
Hi Cindy, thanks for the note. Please add me to your swap, I do love coming to them. I can give you the $$ this Saturday at Kathy's swap if that is OK, but if you don't want to deal with it then just let me know and I'll send you a check. I would like to bring iced tea, I'll bring both sweet and unsweetend for those who prefer each type. See you this weekend. Thanks in advance for all the work that goes into these events.

Geez, Louise.... looks like I better come so these poor PA girls can get there. Goodness knows it's SO far away and hard to find!! :rolleyes:
Please sign me up, Cindy!! :mrgreen:
Geez, Louise... yes, you'd better!!! These "poor PA girls" need all the help they can get!
I don't know about the "hard to find" part since I've never been there - but YES, goodness knows it is so SO far away!!
And now, lest you give all these ladies the impression we're forcing you to come against your will... When I texted you to say if you go to Cindy's swap I will go too... I think your exact words were... "Oh my word! YOU GOT IT! I'm so excited!!" (Words you may live to regret... LOL! :twisted

She knew she had to respond quick before you changed your mind!! LOL I'm glad you are gonna come down for a swap.
For those of you who paid me today, I've marked that on the list. If I forgot someone, please let me know. My list is still in the bag, so I was going by memory.
For those of you who haven't signed up for food yet, we are in need of main dishes whether it's something in a crockpot or a type of salad (chicken, tuna, chicken caesar, etc.).
Hey you Poor PA girls, LOL...if something falls through or whatever, I can bring you. I live in York...just let me know.
JoAnn
JoAnn, that is so kind of you - to take pity on us "poor PA girls!" :mrgreen:
Our friend Joan seems to be cooperating at the moment but I will certainly keep your offer in mind if that changes.
Such nice people come from over there in York, I always say!!
If there is still room, please sign me up. I'll bring chicken and rice.
Sue Engelhardt
Hi Sue, Yes there is room for you. Is this the same chicken and rice you brought to one of my swaps - with the polynesian flair? It was so yummy. I've got you signed up.
If I wasn't already volunteering for a homeless shelter this day I would totally be here!! Hope you ladies have a great time!!
