Northern CA/Bay Area (in San Jose) Get Together! September
Do you live in Northern California, near San Jose?
Join us for a Northern CA/Bay Area get together!!
The plans are to find an afternoon on a weekend in September, specifically we are looking at early afternoon (12 or 1) of September 13, 14, 20, 21 or 28th, to meet informally and casually and stamp for a few hours!
We will meet at a GREAT spot in San Jose, A Work of Heart. It's an art/stamp/crop studio, filled with anything and everything you could ever want to use for your stamping. Here is a link to a list of what they have for our use.
The owners of the shop are waving the listed fee for the use of their studio, we can have the room for free, as well as use of their non-consumables. You can bring your own consumables or purchase consumables at the shop. They will allow us to bring in food - whether you all decide to bring your own food and drinks or send me checks ahead of time for a Costco run, if you want me to make a costco run please post a comment, I would imagine that $5 per person will allow us to get snacks and drinks.
This is an informal relaxed gathering, just a chance to meet other local stampers and SCSers, and you can either bring a project you're working on (like Christmas cards!) or bring nothing and use whatever the studio can offer. You would only pay for consumables.
.
With a short lead time (little over a month from now), I am open to other stamping suggestions.
There is room for 27 stampers besides myself.
Please post in this thread if you are interested and what date(s) are acceptable for you! Thanks.
Also, please post a link to this thread in your signature so that we can advertise this get together throughout SCS.

Bump again. The place that we are going to meet is wonderful, I was there for four hours yesterday and could have stayed four more without blinking an eye.
Don't forget to let me know what days/dates work best for you.

Hi! I would love to join in on this fun! I live in West San Jose. Unfortunately, I am available only on the 13th/14th. It doesn't mean you can't have it the other weekends... I would stop by and visit since I am so close by! I'm off to email my other San Jose gals!
Wonderful! I am also going to list this on my blog tonight, am looking forward to meeting you!

GOODY!!! I have to find some Bic Mark It's on sale - I want to get a large set. I tried your blending technique with my measly set of Sharpies - but I need more colors.
I'm available any of the weekends...at least I think I am! Having just moved in I'm a little scattered right now and haven't planed beyond next week! ;-) LOL
Sounds like a fun time. Are we just gonna stamp together or would anyone be interested in doing a shoebox swap???
Hope to see you all there!
-Jana (NOW in NorCal once again!)
I'm in the area, and would love to join in the fun and meet everyone, if can, too! Have some things going on those dates, but should be able to come for at least a little while, depending which date works best for most!
Ok stampers, we are getting down to the wire....please note which dates work best for you, next Monday I will post the date of the get together, so stay tuned : )

I would love to come. Sept. 20,21,26, or 27 work for me. I can pitch in on food or bring something. What about a swap or shoebox swap? Anyone interested?
I would love to come. Has a date be chosen yet? I am available on the 21st and the 28th. Whereabouts is this place? I'm not too far from San Jose, I'm in Morgan Hill.
Hi everyone! I've read through the posts but it doesn't look like a date has been set yet... has it? We're getting really close! I'm just stopping in to let you know I can do the 13th but other than that, it's just to stop in for a visit. Would still love to meet you all, regardless of when you meet. Please post the date soon!
I don't think this is happening. I went ahead and put my own group together for the 27th. I have one spot open if anyone is interested. I'm located in Morgan Hill....send me a message for more details.
I am a new stamper but could offer my home in Newark as a place for about 6or 7 people to come and have fun stamping. Newark is 20 min from San Jose and Palo Alto, 30 min from Pleasanton and Oakland and 45 min from San Francsico.
What days work best for people, I was thinking maybe October 19, Sunday in the Afternoon from about 2 to 4.
Will need to know by say October 12th or so if interested.
Just a few notes. first, I have cat, dog and birds, so if allergic, might not be a good thing. Second, we are redoing the floor in the kitchen so it looks like crap right now, not sure if it would be done by then or not but if not, no worries about spills..hehe
Let me know if your interested.
P.S. Will most likely start a new thread.
