There are some extremely talented people on this board and I love everyones work, all I ask is that we make this our "best" work.

Please follow directions on all items, when it says embellish item please no less than 2 Embellishments per item. Please no scanned/copied paper - all must be original!Embellishment option :eyelets, brads, buttons, fibers, jewels, bling, rubber stamping, inking, heat embossing, metal embellishments, tags, tabs, die cuts, punches, bottle caps, beads, wire, punches, paper piecing, embossed metal, stitching, Magic Mesh, charms, serendipity work, fancy, patterened or grosgrain ribbon, glass tiles, bubbles, clips, etc. Almost anything except if you are using stickers they need to be closely related or from this line..thanksPostage for this swap will be $4.65 if you have more than 1 spot please 2 spots add an additional $2 and 3 Spots make a flat rate of $8.95.

jenna, I saw a post on another part of the board where carrie1203 was going to send the stuff to me. If she does and you want to host this, I will send both her spots and mine to you. I hope we can get this recreated. Just in case, you may want to move the due date out a month. It will give people more time to decide and get their stuff sent in.

mamma2allboyz · Post by **mamma2allboyz** » Thu Oct 25, 2007 7:04 pm

If you host Jenna thats fine with me, I honestly hadnt made my spots because I wasnt sure of the status on this one. I do have the paper that I ordered but for sure would need more time at this point, I dont think I can complete these this weekend. Just let me know and I will mail them out to you on your set date.Thanks for stepping up and helping out I am sure everyone appreciates it. I hate to waste the money on the paper because it was expensive, atleast the birthday line was that I got.Hugs

SMSHOP · Post by **SMSHOP** » Thu Oct 25, 2007 8:12 pm

If it is really due November 30th, then I will send in my halloween spot, mine are completed, I just hate to think it will be another month or two before they are back. It seems when we recreate the spots it takes awhile to get them back. I am not trying to be crabby - and I applaud you for taking on the chore of getting this swap complete.Thanks!Susan

deerewife · Post by **deerewife** » Thu Oct 25, 2007 10:41 pm

I'm going to stick with this date. I think 30 days is enough seeing that this was really due next week. If it's not enough - pm me and we'll see if we can work this out. I'll add those that are definite to the list and we'll either fill the empty spots or drop the number of spots due.Jenna

twinsmom1 · Post by **twinsmom1** » Thu Oct 25, 2007 11:16 pm

I will go ahead and keep the spot in this one. I will try to get my stuff in by the due date, the only thing is that I have not ben working and money is very tight and a little more time would allow me to get everything. Let me see what I can come up with on my tight budget. Thanks for keeping this one.

deerewife · Post by **deerewife** » Thu Oct 25, 2007 11:34 pm

Melanie,I owe you a layout - so if you send the swap stuff, I'll cover some of the postage back to you and hold the layout til then. Does that help some?Jenna

I mailed the brads out to Penny

DN in MN · Post by **DN in MN** » Fri Oct 26, 2007 9:03 am

I'll keep my spots for the party and halloween. Send me your address so I can be ready to mail them to you

ArmyWife95 · Post by **ArmyWife95** » Fri Oct 26, 2007 11:05 am

I'd be happy to send my stuff to you! PM me your addy pls!!

twinsmom1 · Post by **twinsmom1** » Fri Oct 26, 2007 11:21 am

that would be fine. I can RAK the brads for you Darcy. I wouldn't want to see you burned on this one. Put Darcy down for the brads that will be a RAK from me.

deerewife · Post by **deerewife** » Fri Oct 26, 2007 3:57 pm

Updating - we have many open spots, but hopefully we can salvage a swap out of this.Jenna

mamma2allboyz · Post by **mamma2allboyz** » Fri Oct 26, 2007 5:09 pm

Jenna I will keep my spots since I have the paper for this one and I can have them out to you in a few weeks for sure.Hugs

twinsmom1 · Post by **twinsmom1** » Fri Oct 26, 2007 6:17 pm

carolinagirl may be a flaker. Haven't seen or heard from her and she flaked on one of my recent swaps. you may want to angel that spot. Just FYI.

shanierae · Post by **shanierae** » Fri Oct 26, 2007 8:14 pm

You know Jenna, Since I don't have any other swaps pending with you I will have to back out because I can't afford postage for just one swap back and forth. It made sence for me to do it with Penny because she had a box going for me. Thanks for taking the initiative though that was very nice of you!BTW, I got your pm asking about this but I hadn't seen the thread yet and was very confused by it. So, that is why my reply reads the way it does!Thanks.

Hearts0314 · Post by **Hearts0314** » Sat Oct 27, 2007 2:43 pm

I've never joined a swap from here before. How does it work? Are there any open spots? Thanks..

deerewife · Post by **deerewife** » Sat Oct 27, 2007 5:04 pm

Okay gals. Updated. We have some open spots in each swap and several spots that I haven't heard back from people.This is what I believe was sent to Penny - and I will try to get them from her.1. Jsliva items for all 3 swaps2. Judykins cardstock for Party and Halloween3. Scrapaway brads for PartyIf there are others, please speak up! You have until 10/30 to claim your spot or it will be offered up or removed.Thanks!Jenna

Hearts0314 · Post by **Hearts0314** » Sat Oct 27, 2007 7:06 pm

twinsmom1 - Thanks for the info!Jenna - Thanks for the info!I'm going to have to pass. I don't really need any travel or party items and I won't be scrapping my Halloween pictures for a loooong while. These swaps seem like a really great idea! Its a great way to get a few of each item from the collection plus ready to use page sets. I'm definitel keeping an eye out for any other swaps!Thanks..
