Epcot Swap- Closed and Active

[Mickeyteacher]

Due Date: September 1, 2010.

1. Choose an open theme (Mexico, Living Seas, Illuminations ~ anything at Epcot).
2. Select two elements for Groups A - D. Each element should be embellished 2 different ways. Make a Altered Letter for Group E – H. Group I will make 2 photo mats.
3. PM me with your DIS name, name and address - only if I have not swapped with you before.
4. Post your status on the Progress thread - which will be posted after the slots are filled.
5. Check the progress thread for your status - it will be updated with ship info and received info.
6. PM me if you have problems and need to drop out or if an emergency happens (we all know things happen beyond our control sometimes), let me know so we can make arrangements for an angel or other help if needed.
7. HAVE FUN!!

Required check-ins will be:
1 July 14th: check groups/info to me
2 July 28
3 August 10
4 August 24th (mail by date)

I will pm you with a reminder if you forget to check in. After 48 hours with no response I will request angels for your spots. If you are going on vacation or will be out of town, please check in early. Please do not sign up for more than you can handle. If you need an angel, please ask for one as soon as possible.

After sign-ups, please pm me your name, DIS name, mailing address, email address and phone number when you sign up (I will only use these in an emergency).

I will open up additional groups if there is interest!!!

This is an element / Altered Letter swap.

Packaging: Place your completed elements in a Ziploc bag THAT FITS YOUR ELEMENTS (the bag MUST close) with your DISname, name and group letter. Do not address your items to a particular swapper. (That makes it harder for me to sort!) Your label should look like this

MickeyTeacher
Shawna L…..
Group A

Take all of your baggies for a group and place them in GALLON size (or larger) bag, (for Groups K- N, you may use a quart size bag) and label with the same. Please use the gallon bag (or larger) -- your items may fit in a smaller bag, but the items you receive back might not. Please mark all bags w/ above information. **Please note on altered letter groups if you wish you could package all the letters into 1 quart size baggie; without having to bag each letter individually.


Mailing: You may send to me, by any method you choose unless you are mailing after August 20th [note this is before the mail by date]. Then, you must mail Priority WITH Delivery Confirmation. I prefer to send to you using flat rate boxes/envelopes. Please include enough postage in your package for return shipping. The rates are: Envelope or Small Box (9”x6”x2”) - $4.95, Medium/Standard box – $10.70, Large - $14.50. I won’t require Delivery Confirmation, UNLESS you are sending to me AFTER August 20. If you want your items shipped to you with DC, please include the $.70, and a filled out slip. I will not mail the items back with delivery confirmation unless you include the $.70. And I am not responsible to for postal errors. ** Please include a return address label -- either a USPS priority mail label that you have addressed, or the little ones you would put on envelope. (This cuts down on errors.)**

DO NOT include clik-it/ship-it postage. I will not be able to use it since it is only good on the day it was printed, and from the location it was printed.

ELEMENT GROUPS:

Element list:
Title = standard 8x2 topper (other sizes are okay), welded and shadowed letters, letters on squares, circles, mini tags or other shapes, a large title tag, title on a box, borders, photo mat, altered CD, altered letter (matted @ 4" & embellished).

Suggestions for embellishments include:
Die cuts, stickers, stickles, flock, ink, chalk, brads, charms, flowers, eyelets, ribbon/fiber, sewing, tearing, embossing, stamping, clipart, additional layers of paper beyond double mats (if it would look weird trying to fit in another embellishment, specialty paper (such as embossed, glitter, Bling).

1. Choose an open theme (Mexico, Living Seas, Illuminations ~ anything at Epcot).
2. Select two elements. Each element should be embellished 2 different ways.
3. PM me with your DIS name, name and address - only if I have not swapped with you before.
4. Post your status on the Progress thread - which will be posted after the slots are filled.
5. Check the progress thread for your status - it will be updated with ship info and received info.
6. PM me if you have problems and need to drop out or if an emergency happens (we all know things happen beyond our control sometimes), let me know so we can make arrangements for an angel or other help if needed.
7. HAVE FUN!!

A Final Note: This swap is a huge commitment of time and money for everyone involved as it takes a significant amount of both to create all of the pages and elements. Having said that, PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE do not sign up for more than you can handle. It is not fair to me or the other participants to expend the time and money to make something for someone who does not reciprocate. We all want everyone to enjoy swapping but we also want you to think about what you are getting into when you sign up.

Last but not least, HAVE FUN! I know we all stress about our work and that is OK. The important thing to remember is that you just need to make something you would be proud to have in your own albums and everyone will love it. If you get stumped or have a question, anyone on here would be happy to help; all you have to do is ask.

One more just in case....

[StitchIsOurHero]

Can't wait!! Not a huge Epcot fan, but I love the Epcot swap!! ;)

[LOVEMY3KIDDOS]

One question...the EPCOT letters are going to be 4" or 2"...not sure if it was a mistake or you are going for a larger title?? Thanks!!

[Mickeyteacher]

One question...the EPCOT letters are going to be 4" or 2"...not sure if it was a mistake or you are going for a larger title?? Thanks!!

The EPCOT letters should be 2 inch letters- otherwise they would not fit on the page. The only group I have 4 inch letters in are the country letters. This group is only doing the first letter to represent the country, so that should be fine.
Thanks for catching my mistake.

I thought it may be, but didn't know if you had some other idea going! LOL I think the creativity on here can make anything work!!!! Yeah...the countries will be cool!

[LOVEMY3KIDDOS]

I have another question...sorry!!!

For the World Showcase 2" letters - can the letters we choose be related to a certain country? I am having trouble thinking of more than one generalized idea. And, if so, do you want us to list our choice or no?

I was thinking that you could name a country and then do a letter to match it. What do you think?

[LOVEMY3KIDDOS]

I think that will work!! There may be repeats because there are more than 11 letters in it, but it will work. I have a non-specific idea though, too....but just the 1.

[tyniknate]

Looks good as it is. Hope I'm home for the 9 a.m. signups. Maybe I'll have to find a sign-up buddy. Lovemy3kiddos....are you up for it if I need help?

[LOVEMY3KIDDOS]

Yeah...who needs clean clothes or dishes anyway??!! :lmao::lmao:

It actually seems to be a fairly small swap. So, not too time consuming! You know you want to...c'mon! (Plus, your stuff is relly nice and we would all like to be on the receiving end!!!)

[Mickeyteacher]

I'm sorry...I just realized that I posted before you listed the sign-ups as open. I am getting ready to head home from the in-laws and wanted to jump on before getting on the road. If you need to bump me for someone else it's ok!!

[LOVEMY3KIDDOS]

Looks like these corrections should do it:

Can I be waitlisted for Group C (Seas) and see if another group opens? I am having trouble thinking of things for what is left...I may change my mind, but for now I would like to wait. For Group F, can I have Norway please? I don't know if there will be a second group opened for these since we need 11 people as it is? But, if so, I'd like to do France in the second group.

I think that clears it all up. Thanks so much!

[Mickeyteacher]

Good morning. Didn't think I'd be here to sign up this morning.
Anyway, if you open more groups, could I please be waitlisted for

[LOVEMY3KIDDOS]

I have a question - If no one signs up for Universe of Energy in group C, would you consider still opening a second group for the other attractions. I had asked to be waitlisted for the Seas and MusicalDreams asked for Imagination. So, there would be two of the spots already? Just wondering...either way is fine. And, if I could, I'd still like F for France in the 2nd H group.

Thanks a bunch!!

For group Hb I'd love Mexico. Thanks and sorry for the confusion! :rotfl2:

[tyniknate]

I think maybe my earlier post got lost. Would you like me to wait and see if others want in the new groups, or can I join in doubles. If it's OK, I'd like to fill these spots if you open new groups
A & H - America
B - Italy.
If you would rather I wait, that's fine. I'll be happy to fill in where you need me, if you need me.

Hope your canning went well. I haven't canned since the great tomato sauce incident of 2007. My husband wants to try it again. I just keep buying store sauce and hoping he'll forget. Tomorrow I have to bake 75 whoopie pies to take to boy scout camp. The electric company will be rich, between the AC and the oven! :laughing:

I will add you in if we have enough interest to open more groups. I plan to keep this open until Thursday, so you are down for these group, if they open.
The canning went well- I had a great helper- DD snapped beans for 3 hours this afternoon and filled the jars. Good lick with the whoopie pies tomorrow!

[Mom-to-2-Princesses]

Could I also please be in the photo mat group? It looks like fun!

I will take the Morocco elements in group A to fill that one ;)

[Mickeyteacher]

Got ya both added... We are getting close to fulling all the groups. I hope we can close it by Thursday.
S :)

[LOVEMY3KIDDOS]

You can put me in to the World Showcase and Future World altered letters if they are not full near closing. Wait for others to join first, but I can help fill in the blanks if there is no more interest!! :thumbsup2

[RhondaGreene]

I would like to join this swap if possible. I am new to the Disboards but not new to scrapbooking. I am friends with catinthehat35 and am familiar with the way that swaps work. I would like to be apart of group Cb. Spaceship Earth if possible. Thank you very much.

Welcome Rhonda! We are glad you plan to join us! I will add you to that group. Since you are new to our swaps, we limit the number of groups that your join to 2. So, if there is anything else that you would like to add, let me know.
Thanks,
S :)

[123SA]

I'd like Italy in group Hb please.

[morgansmom2000]

I would like to do Canada in group Hb.

[AlexWyattMommy]

I will take the UK, it will be completely different than my other UK. Promise.

"Look kids, Big Ben!" Sorry, I couldn't resist, too much Novocain :lmao:

[PirateTink]

"Look kids, Big Ben!" Sorry, I couldn't resist, too much Novocain :lmao:

"I just can't get left" LOL:happytv: Funny...I was thinking the same thing when I signed up for UK!! Love that movie ... a quoting classic.:rotfl2:

[Mickeyteacher]

"Look kids, Big Ben!" Sorry, I couldn't resist, too much Novocain :lmao:
This made me laugh, as I had lots of dental work done last week and it still hurts- going back today to try and get them to pull the tooth!

I will take Japan in group Hb and will do a spot in the photo mats group. If you need me to fill in any of the 2 inch letter groups at the end I will do those as well- but let other do them first.

I have spots to fill in bot World Showcase and Future World groups. Would both of you be interested in a spot in each? Pretty Please?

[PrincessNancy96]

hb ~ I'll take Morocco to fill it out!

[Mickeyteacher]

hb ~ I'll take Morocco to fill it out!

AWESOME! Thanks!

[PrincessNancy96]

No problem.. if my sister is nice, I'll give her the extra set.. if she is a snot, I'll keep it for myself!!

2 gifts in one swap... makes Christmas that much easier!!!!

[wdwmickey]

MIckeyteacher--since the 2 inch letters go so quickly (after you sketch them out of course ;)) I'll be happy to fill a spot in each of the groups Eb & Fb--letters of your choice :)

[rlovew]

That is fine- just assign me a letters in each of the groups you need to fill.

Rebecca

[123SA]

I'll take spots in both E and F. Can I have the extra goodie and whatever letter?

Or just whatever.

[Mickeyteacher]

Thanks ladies for helping to close this swap. I will get my mailing information out in the next couple of days. I'm off to the dentist for the 3rd time in a week- hopefully, they will just pull the tooth and forget about saving it- I can always get a bridge or implant (it is a back tooth)

Wish me luck!
S :)

[PrincessNancy96]

Good Luck Shawna....
I'd be so stressed right now.... I hate the thought of pulling teeth... they'd have to knock me out!

[LOVEMY3KIDDOS]

I saw you added me...was at the store, but not a problem!! I am pming you my info now!

[Mickeyteacher]

Good Luck Shawna....
I'd be so stressed right now.... I hate the thought of pulling teeth... they'd have to knock me out!

I think at this point pulling the tooth might be less painful. I have had nothing but soup for almost a week and I'm eating advil every 8 hours just to be able to function.

I saw you added me...was at the store, but not a problem!! I am pming you my info now!

Thanks! I have the information.
S :)

[MusicalDisneyDreams]

My groups are great, thanks! :goodvibes

[wdwmickey]

My groups are fine. Thanks for hosting. I hope your trip to the dentist went well :) PM sent.

[AlexWyattMommy]

I do need to be added to the player's list and I think I have all the groups I was supposed to have. :)

[morgansmom2000]

My group is great :)

Sorry about the dental work. It is not fun. I had to have a permanent crown put on this morning. It's not toooooo bad, but I did pop Advil before I left.

[catinthehat35]

My group looks great! Im excited to be a part of this swap! I'm planning a trip to the world in May next year so I would like to gather goodies for my scrapbook for when I return! Keeps me excited about my trip!!

Stephanie

[tyniknate]

My groups look good. Hope you are feeling well after the dentist. I HATE going there. They have to give me nerve pills just to get me in the office. Good new is that I get to be dopey for a few hours every time I go. :goodvibes

[Mickeyteacher]

The dentist and I do not get along. I love my dentist- I just have terrible teeth and have always had trouble. Say a little prayer for me on Monday, as I have an 8 am root canal.
S :)

[123SA]

:scared: I'll be thinking of you. Nobody told me when I entered into parenthood that my children's teeth would be one of the most stressful aspects. Ugghh...


I made some progress. I have titles cut for my element groups, and the embellishments for the mats. FutureW letter and extra goodie cut and the goodie for WSC cut too.

[StitchIsOurHero]

My groups are good (can't remember if I checked in or not). Do you have my info? :)

[PirateTink]

My groups are good. I'll pm my info.Thanks!

[123SA]

I have been having a productive day! I have everything cut for this swap. I've been trying to get things to the assembly stage so that I can bring it with me to complete at the pool and at the kids' swim practices. So far it has been working out really well!

[PirateTink]

That's a great idea, Susan! Then you have built in time to work on the projects. I usually try to cut out a bunch of things at once & have little bags to work on. In fact, I need to put some together soon.

I picked up some embellishments for my countries while I was at the store the other day. I need to jot down my ideas before I forget them.

Have a great day! I'm heading out to a graduation party later & to the beach tomorrow.

[Mickeyteacher]

Please let me know if you did not recieve my mailing information last night. We had a power outage as I was sending the last group, and I want to make sure it went out.

I'm looking forward to a wonderful sawp!
S :)

Hope you had a wonderful day! We had a bridal shower here this afternoon, so I was busy with that today.
S :)

[DisneyBarlans]

I got your info-my groups look great!!

Thanks!:)

[Mom-to-2-Princesses]

My info looks great.

I was wondering what color scheme people were thinking for the 2" letters for "World Showcase", "Future World" and "Epcot". Are we going Olympic colors like the photo mats or in a different direction? Thanks!

[PirateTink]

Thanks it was a lot of fun & great weather! Hope you had a nice day at the bridal shower :flower3:


That's a good question about the 2" letter groups. I think I remember seeing some talk about different countries for World Showcase. EPCOT might be good in the Olympic colors.

[123SA]

My future world letter and extra goodie are silver and black.

Sounds great!
S :)

[LOVEMY3KIDDOS]

My plan for WS letters is to do country-themed, FW shimmery (futuristic feeling) and EPCOT I was going to do blue and silver and purple...although I can possibly adjust my sketch to other colors.

[wdwmickey]

This is what I was planning too ;) but, for EPCOT I was planning silver or purple and blue sky with clouds for the shadow. Future World I was thinkin rainbow colors or olympic colors. I'm open to suggestions. :goodvibes

[PrincessNancy96]

If everyone is doing something similar in Epcot... I'll go w/ silver and either blue/purple background... I had already planned on silver but not sure of other coloring....

As for WS... I was going country colors... I have L was going to utilize the Italy theme... either masks or gondola.... leaning more towards mask because my gondola stinks! C I was going w/ a canadian feel.

[MusicalDisneyDreams]

For group Cb for Imagination, I'm considering using the title "One Little Spark." Would that work for everyone? :goodvibes

[Mickeyteacher]

I like it!!!!

[StitchIsOurHero]

I'm good with whatever everyone wants on Epcot and Future World--I hadn't really planned! But for World Showcase, I have the W & A. I was going to use an "Earth" for the W and then do the "A" with a sort of American Adv theme. Would that be ok?

I have the O and cut an Earth...but there are more than 11 letters so some countries would be duplicted. So, we could do more than one Earth!!

[wdwmickey]

I ordered all the paper, etc for my groups today. Thanks to whoever recommended scrap your trip, they had everything I needed! In fact they had spaceship earth paper :) MDD is sitting here hand piecing Figment for her "Imagination" group. They are soooo cute ;)

[MusicalDisneyDreams]

I made Figments!! :goodvibes
http://i894.photobucket.com/albums/ac141/wdwmickey/001.jpg
He took forever! I started with the black and white and hand-cut everything. I'm very happy with the result, though! :upsidedow
They're for my Imagination elements, group Cb. I'm probably going to do the title "One Little Spark" an a photo mat with rainbows/clouds on it.

That is great!!!!!! You will be very successful in the paper piecing swap!! Do you have the Once Upon a Princees Cricut cart? There is a cute rainbow on there!!!

[MusicalDisneyDreams]

Thanks so much! :goodvibes
We don't; I think my plan is to make a bunch of circles in the rainow colors (ROY G BIV) and then cut them in half-- two for the price of one! :upsidedow
Two Figments down, 3 to go. (my momma wants one)

[AlexWyattMommy]

:cloud9::cloud9: I love the Figment!

[Mickeyteacher]

The figments look great! :love:

[LOVEMY3KIDDOS]

The check-ins say today is one...was that just when we neede the info to you, or do you want progress also? Just in case....I have purchased everything, sketched everything and cut some. Still a long way to go, but it'll get there!!!

[StitchIsOurHero]

I have the O and cut an Earth...but there are more than 11 letters so some countries would be duplicted. So, we could do more than one Earth!!

Oops!! I missed that! No worries! I can do something else! Is the American Adventure theme ok, though?

[LOVEMY3KIDDOS]

Oops!! I missed that! No worries! I can do something else! Is the American Adventure theme ok, though?

I had never posted it before...I just thought it would be something different than all countries. But, really I don't think it would be bad to have more than one. Like I said, there are bound to be countries duplicated. American Adventure will be great and whatever else you decide to do...Earth or whatever!!!!!

[PrincessNancy96]

remember depending on who has the other "o" it can go in either world or showcase. I think it will be great regardless!!! :)

[hffmnheidi]

Mailing my stuff tomorrow or Friday of this week. I had fun with this one.

[StitchIsOurHero]

I went to HL today (took DS--he kept saying "cooooool"!) I got some different papers for this swap, and I'm really excited!!

[wdwmickey]

Here are my unembellished letter for groups Eb and Fb. I made the pics a little bigger so you can see the details on the printed paper.

http://i894.photobucket.com/albums/ac141/wdwmickey/100_1795.jpg

The "E" will have a silver pretzel brad in the lower left edge and I have some travel brads I may try on the "R".

http://i894.photobucket.com/albums/ac141/wdwmickey/100_1797.jpg

Here are the "R"s with the brads on top, the paper is foreign postage stamps.

http://i894.photobucket.com/albums/ac141/wdwmickey/100_1803.jpg

The "F" is holographic paper. No idea on the embellishment yet:confused3 The "O" is also holographic, sparkly.

Are these okay? Any suggestions? Thanks :goodvibes

[StitchIsOurHero]

I love the travel brads--I have those to use, too! But I'm in a different group than you, so we should be ok! :thumbsup2

[MusicalDisneyDreams]

Here're my Figment elements for group Cb::
http://i894.photobucket.com/albums/ac141/wdwmickey/004.jpg
The rainbow was fun to make, Figment took forever, and I love the paper. It was a lot of fun to make! :goodvibes

[LOVEMY3KIDDOS]

All of these are great!!!!

[AlexWyattMommy]

:love: Everything and totally kicking myself for not joining the Figment group. Figment is my absolute favorite character. The paper you used is perfect for that grouping.

[Mickeyteacher]

Everything looks great! This will be an awesome swap!

[MusicalDisneyDreams]

Here're my letters for Future World, group FA::
http://i894.photobucket.com/albums/ac141/wdwmickey/005.jpg

[wdwmickey]

Here is my "P" for EPCOT group Gb.

http://i894.photobucket.com/albums/ac141/wdwmickey/100_1806.jpg

[Mom-to-2-Princesses]

boy, I go out of town for one day and you ladies gave me tons of cool things to view this morning! I love all the items and everyone is finding the coolest papers!

[mbfqueen]

Checking in!

[StitchIsOurHero]

Progress to report!! I got the "W" for "World Showcase" done. The "T" for Epcot is done, but waiting on stickles to dry for final assembly. The "A" for World Showcase is cut, and 3 are done. I have to finish the other 4! It feels good to make some progress!! :thumbsup2

[PrincessNancy96]

SIOH ~ you just trying to put me to shame or what???
I at least got the template done for the sketch swap... now 3 more of those...and I'll take a break and work on my "O" for the Epcot group tomorrow... as the stress will be over the top tomorrow due to project check in at the fair... ERGH!

[StitchIsOurHero]

Quick question--for the elements group with "Character Spot": I can't decide whether to do it in "traditional Disney" colors (red, black, white, yellow) or to do it in more of a metallic blue/silver (like the room). Any preferences??

[LOVEMY3KIDDOS]

I like the blue / silver!!! That's just my vote...don't even think I'm in your group!! LOL

[Mom-to-2-Princesses]

Hi! I'm checking in real early for the 28th checkin. The girls and I are leaving my husband and heading to the Smokys with my Mom!

I have all the designing done, most of the paper put aside, and am just waiting for a new blade for my machine to come in.

[PrincessNancy96]

My current update:

J ~ Japan: done
A ~ America: done
N ~ Norway: done
O ~ Epcot: done

L & C ~ World Showcase:DONE

Have idea in my head for photo mats.. I sure hope it works.. off to figure measurements cause I just got another idea!

M ~ Morocco....have ideas... but want to get the others done and leave the hardest one for last... I think I know what I want...

[wdwmickey]

Here is my 4 inch "G" for Germany--help, does it need something else?

http://i894.photobucket.com/albums/ac141/wdwmickey/100_1893.jpg

[wdwmickey]

Here is the Germany elements group:

http://i894.photobucket.com/albums/ac141/wdwmickey/100_1895.jpg

The yellow paper ribbon is only attatched at the top & bottom so a picture can slide in, and the castle IS NOT attatched to the red paper (I only laid it on the red paper so it could be seen). :) I could attatch it red if you want or I could include a red square and each person can do what they want ;)

[StitchIsOurHero]

I love the Germany elements & altered letter! Looks great!!

[123SA]

I like this a whole lot. Love the paper. I especially like the title - -how did you do it?

[morgansmom2000]

I like this a whole lot. Love the paper. I especially like the title - -how did you do it?

I think it's from Destinations.

[PrincessNancy96]

Those look great!

As for the altered letter, nope ~ I don't think it needs anything else!!!!

[LOVEMY3KIDDOS]

I :love: it too!!! I have never seen that paper!!! It's great!

[AlexWyattMommy]

Germany looks awesome!

[wdwmickey]

Thanks, everyone! The "Germany" title is from destinations, the paper is from scrap your trip.

[MusicalDisneyDreams]

Here's the N for Norway::
http://i894.photobucket.com/albums/ac141/wdwmickey/017.jpg

I'm done with my groups and my momma's just waiting for some things to come in the mail to finish, then we'll go postal.

[AlexWyattMommy]

That is sooo cute!! :love:

[PrincessNancy96]

That is cute.. that was the approach I was going to take w/ my Norway in the other group..but instead decided to make the flag design! ;)

[morgansmom2000]

Super cute!

[wdwmickey]

Here are the Morocco elements:

http://i894.photobucket.com/albums/ac141/wdwmickey/100_1926.jpg

The ribbon & flower are "popped" so you can slide a pic under ;) The supplies all came from scrap your trip.

[123SA]

beautiful!

[PirateTink]

OOOh very pretty Morocco - it reminds me of the inside of the restaurant with the belly dancers. Very nice choice!

[AlexWyattMommy]

It does look like at that pretty tile they have in Morocco. Love the whole set!

[wdwmickey]

Oh good! I love the tilework in Morocco and I have tons of pics (of the tilework) so I was trying to make elements that would work with those pics :)

[LOVEMY3KIDDOS]

Cheryl - the Morocco set is great! The gems look like they must have taken FOREVER!!!

[Mickeyteacher]

Everything looks great! You guys always do an awesome job!
PN96- I got your e-mail, i was just unable to reply because of the bad reception in the hills. It looks great!
I will be home by mid-week, and hopefully back to normal!
S :)

[PrincessNancy96]

No worries!!!
Enjoy your trip!!!

I hope to finish the photo mat group today....and than onto the altered "M" for Morocco....

[wdwmickey]

Nancy-- I hope it's okay that I made an M for Morocco in my group ( I forgot there were two 4 inch groups), I didn't have enough paper to spell Morocco and I didn't think anyone else would have exactly the same paper :)

[wdwmickey]

Cheryl - the Morocco set is great! The gems look like they must have taken FOREVER!!!

They came pre-made :) However, the package only had 5 (I thought it had 6) so I did make 1 by hand with my i-rock and it did take forever!:goodvibes

[StitchIsOurHero]

Checking in for the 7/28 check-in. DS's bday is next weekend, so I know this week will be crazy, and I don't want to forget to check in.

Nancy-- I hope it's okay that I made an M for Morocco in my group ( I forgot there were two 4 inch groups), I didn't have enough paper to spell Morocco and I didn't think anyone else would have exactly the same paper :)

Oh no, that is not an issue at all!!!!!
I don't have that paper... I'm actually having a difficult time thinking of papers to utilize for Morocco...that is why I waited til last.. didn't even see papers that screamed at me shopping today... :(

ETA: Love the spaceship earth set!!!
Finished the photo mat group.... just the M ~ Morocco.... will bag/tag/label everything yet today that is complete!!!

[LOVEMY3KIDDOS]

Cheryl - beautiful work again!!! Where did you get the paper in the mat & Mickey head? Is it a photo that you took?

[wdwmickey]

Cheryl - beautiful work again!!! Where did you get the paper in the mat & Mickey head? Is it a photo that you took?

The paper came from scrap your trip, although I have taken several pictures like that, I didn't think about enlarging it to use as paper--that's a good idea for the future :goodvibes

[DisneyBarlans]

I'm done with all of my altered letters. Now on to the two element groups. . .

[PrincessNancy96]

I'm done w/ my groups!

I'm bagging and tagging the last group today (M & N ~ Morocco & Norway)...

I'll be mailing next Saturday.... too much going on w/ the first week of school next week so I don't want them lost w/ the chaos..so they are safely going to be tucked away in the scrap area!!!!

[Mickeyteacher]

Cool!! Thanks!! PM me how much $ I need to send to you! And D says, "Thanks, Aunt Shawna!" ;)

Don't worry about it! Getting D's book was a fun addition to our trip!
Give him a hug from Aunt Shawna

[Mom-to-2-Princesses]

This is the week to work on this SWAP! I am back from vacation, cleaned the house, and had two birthday parties for my new 12 year old!

[catinthehat35]

Just checking in for August 10. My items are all cut out I just have to assemble. Been dealing with dental issues so haven't gotten as much done as I would like but my items will definately be mailed on time.

[Mickeyteacher]

How is everyone doing on this swap? I just completed the first week of school, so I'm ready to get cracken on finishing this swap!
Let me know how you are doing! Are you on time or do we need to push the due date by a week?
S :)

[LOVEMY3KIDDOS]

I have all Cricut items cut...need to cut mats, etc. and assemble. I can be done on time. :rolleyes1 But, if you decided to extend slightly, I wouldn't be upset. :rolleyes1 Either way is fine. (I am angelling a spot in another swap and an small extension would lift some weight off my shoulders. But, neither is anything I can't handle!! So, just let me know!!)

[PrincessNancy96]

I'm done..just need to mail...

[StitchIsOurHero]

I've got everything done except my "Seas" group and the photo mats! I should be done on time--gotta get this one and the character one knocked out!

Yay for surviving the first week of school! Ours was a doozie--hope yours was ok!!

[PrincessNancy96]

SIOH ~ doozie does NOT describe yours... yours was a WHOPPER!!!

[StitchIsOurHero]

Yeah, it kinda was!! Didn't even get to tell you about yesterday morning's lead-off. . .it was a whopper, too!! ;)

[PrincessNancy96]

Love them.... I need to upload mine tomorrow... must remember... You'll have to tell me about yesterday..... I'm anxious to hear!!!! Hey!!! WE had a fumble recovery, several tackles and he is now a starter on defense.. w/in 3 minutes of the first game they put him in on defense and he never came out the rest of the game!!!!! I guess us complaining to him the other night paid off....

[wdwmickey]

SIOH--LOVE those!!!

[morgansmom2000]

Those look great! I only have the one spot, and don't expect it to take too long and to mail on time, but I can wait to get them back, if you do decide to extend the due date.

[morgansmom2000]

Didn't take me long at all to get these done. I guess I should have signed up for more groups. ;)

Here is my C for Canada for group Hb.

[DisneyBarlans]
