Cricut Cuts Swap Active - Homeward Bound!!

[LOVEMY3KIDDOS]

This interest thread is for a new swap!!! It will be a Cricut Cuts swap and will give us the chance to collect some pieces from some Cricut cartridges that we may not have. The sign-ups will go according to which cartridge you are using. There will be a seperate group for each letter of the alphabet. When you sign up, you list your cartridge and which cut you will do from that cartridge. For example, I sign up under the letter C, using the Create a Critter cartridge and make the Panda. I would make as many Pandas as there are people in the C group. The groups will be capped at 10 people. If there is interest, we can open sub-groups. I will also open a number group since there are a couple of cartridges that start with numbers. You don't have to list your specific cut at sign-ups, but be sure to list it before cutting. We want to avoid any doubles within the groups. The exception to this rule will be a grab bag group. This group will be open to sign up for however many cuts you wish to make and receive back. So, if you sign up in that group and choose six, you will make six cuts...the same or all different...up to you. You will get six back. These (hopefully) will all be different. You do not need to state what you are making for this group, just how many. Then, when swapping this particular group, it will be a blind swap, but you will not get your own back and I will do my best to be sure you don't get doubles, unless there is no other way. I will also open a Disney group. This will be for anything from the Disney carts.

Sign-ups for the swap will be Thursday, February 2 at 9:00 am and remain open until Monday, February 6 at 1:00 pm. At that point, I will set the final numbers and it will become an active swap. Then, the swap will be due March 31. This date will remain firm since we will be going away a few weeks after.

At any point, you may change your choice of cartridge (as long as the letter stays the same) and / or the cut itself as long as it does not duplicate another that someone else has made. If your cut is not stated and you send in cuts that someone else had claimed, you will get your own back. The cuts are open to whatever you would like to make as long as it is at least 2 layers. We will follow normal guidelines for paper piecings in other swaps. And, they should be at least 4" in one direction, but not over 6". If you have no personal preference to your cut you are making, you could take requests from the others in the group...since the idea is to get items we may not normally have access to! The opportunities are endless! We will not limit things based on gender. So, it will be anything goes in that manner. It is only a few cuts, so everyone should be able to use them somewhere. If we are creative in our thinking...anything is possible. For example, our high school holds a powderpuff football game. Well, a football related cut could be used for a girl in that respect. I know that is very specific, but I'm just using it as the first example that comes to my head. I don't think there will be so many that it will be overwhelming anyway. The sports carts will be a go. I do like the idea behind the swap being alphabetized by cart title because I think it lends to a better mix and variety that way, which is the purpose behind it. So, knowing all this going into the swap, everyone will understand. All in all, no cart, no cut is off limits (unless there are not enough layers).

Two layer titles would not be on the same level of quality as the multi-layer (3+) titles. So, if it is just a shadow and top, it will not work. Any titles, phrases used will be at least 3 layers. So, for example, the shadow, base layer, decorative layers (possibly multiple decorative).

Newbies are welcome. If you haven't swapped with us on this board before, then I will limit you to 2 groups.

PLEASE READ THIS: BAGGING AND LABELING INSTRUCTIONS ARE PROVIDED. IF YOU ARE UNABLE TO BAG AS RESQUESTED, I RESPECTFULLY ASK THAT YOU REFRAIN FROM JOINING THIS SWAP. PLEASE ASK QUESTIONS IF YOU ARE UNSURE.

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 (I will only use these in an emergency). I will send the same to you. (All of this is only if we have not already exchanged information in a previous swap.)

Swap Requirements: 1 Cricut Cut Piecing per person in each group you have signed up for

Please note: Embellishing is not required on the piecings. If it would look better embellished, then fine. But, it is not required and we don't want to over-do it just for the sake of embellishing.

Suggestions for embellishments (if you so choose) 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).

Labeling:
Every bag should be labeled with your DISname, name and Group number

Your label should look like this:
LOVEMY3KIDDOS
Erin Palys
Group A


Bagging: ALL BAGS MUST CLOSE
Put your piecing in a bag that closes (most will fit in sandwich or quart bags). Label it. Take all of your baggies for a group and place them in GALLON size (or larger) 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.


Mailing:
* You may send to me by any method you choose unless you are mailing after March 19 [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 $5.15, Small Box $5.35, Medium Box 11.35, Large Box $15.45.
* If you want your items shipped to you with DC, please include the $.75, and a filled out slip. I will not mail the items back with delivery confirmation unless you include the $.75 and the filled out DC form.
* Please include a label (can be the priority label completed with your info or a small address label) for me to use to return your items to you.
* 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.


I hope you have lots of fun in this swap...should be a nice change to do something a little different! And, hopefully we all get a little something we wouldn't normally have out of it!

[mommy2mrb]

this sounds fun!

[wdwmickey]

This sounds intriguing! I may have to "negotiate" with DH. Of course it all depends on how much scrapping I get done between now and sign-ups ;)

[LOVEMY3KIDDOS]

this sounds fun!

Something a little different! I figured it was a good way to try and get some things we didn't have without having to buy a whole cart!!

This sounds intriguing! I may have to "negotiate" with DH. Of course it all depends on how much scrapping I get done between now and sign-ups ;)

:rolleyes1 I would be forever indebted to him!! I too pledged no swapping, but decided to instead just greatly scale back. So, that's what I'm doing! This one is new and fun though! I couldn't just quit cold turkey!! LOL

[JJ&JHsmom]

Depending on letter swap, I may be in for a few groups. This sounds interesting.

Cassey

[LOVEMY3KIDDOS]

yay!!! These shouod be pretty easy to do...just the one piecing per person...cut & go!! :thumbsup2 I have so many letters from last years swap, but will be signing up I think for a few groups.

[123SA]

I think I understand. A few questions

1. So if I want Grp D, I can choose from my Dinosaur Tracks, Designer's Calendar, or Doodlecharms carts. Yes?
2. Can there be duplicate carts in the same group?
3. Are words or phrases okay? Some are really simple, just a word with a shadow. Others are more like paper piecings, a base layer, a shadow and some layers. Are both okay?
5. Disney Carts -- do we ignore the word disney? Mickey & Friends would go under M, yes?
6. Are holiday carts and images okay?
7. After group Z, is a group labeled #. What is this for? Is this for carts that begin with a number (are there any that do?)
8. Will you collapse groups? I think there are only 2 carts that begin with Z, just a few that begin with I


I think I really like this idea. There are tons of images that I would like to make, but I have never really had a reason to do.

[LOVEMY3KIDDOS]

I think I understand. A few questions

1. So if I want Grp D, I can choose from my Dinosaur Tracks, Designer's Calendar, or Doodlecharms carts. Yes? Yes
2. Can there be duplicate carts in the same group? Yes...just not the same exact cut.
3. Are words or phrases okay? Some are really simple, just a word with a shadow. Others are more like paper piecings, a base layer, a shadow and some layers. Are both okay? I think these are ok...as long as they are not too specific. Like, no "Princess" or "100% Boy" (just as examples) since not everyone has one or the other. As far as both types, I think both would be fine. I guess for the ones with only 2 layers maybe some embellishing if they seem to need something else. But, if they are good standing alone, that's fine also!
5. Disney Carts -- do we ignore the word disney? Mickey & Friends would go under M, yes? You got it!
6. Are holiday carts and images okay? I think so. LOL I didn't even think about that being an issue. If anyone is opposed to this, please speak up!
7. After group Z, is a group labeled #. What is this for? Is this for carts that begin with a number (are there any that do?) 3 birds on parade and I50 States...maybe one more. I am not so sure there will be any or much interest there.
8. Will you collapse groups? I think there are only 2 carts that begin with Z, just a few that begin with I I think so. I am thinking maybe anything with 2 or less will be combined. But, not to make more then a group of 10. So, if 3 sign up, we will keep that as is. (But that may change also depending on how sign-ups go.) But, say group I gets 2 people, group J gets 1 and group Z gets 2. I will put all 3 together to form 1 and the players within that group will get a bigger mix. If by chance someone is signed up for multiple combined groups (like you are ine of the two people signed up in I in the example AND one in the Z group, I will let you decide if you want to get two sets or just choose which of your cuts you want to do. Does that make sence?


I think I really like this idea. There are tons of images that I would like to make, but I have never really had a reason to do.

I answered in red above. I agree...there are several cuts I have wanted to make, but not actually needed. This is a great opportunity! Also, there are some carts I have admired but not purchased. So, maybe I can get some parts of them! I hope I answered everything clearly. It's sometimes clear in my head, but when typed out, not as much! let me know if you need any more explaining. Great questions by the way!

[123SA]

I think I'm in for this. I'll have to reviewing my carts:thumbsup2

[123SA]

3. Are words or phrases okay? Some are really simple, just a word with a shadow. Others are more like paper piecings, a base layer, a shadow and some layers. Are both okay? I think these are ok...as long as they are not too specific. Like, no "Princess" or "100% Boy" (just as examples) since not everyone has one or the other. As far as both types, I think both would be fine. I guess for the ones with only 2 layers maybe some embellishing if they seem to need something else. But, if they are good standing alone, that's fine also!

Okay. But, lots of things are boy/girl or not good for everyone. Are we just avoiding the gender specific phrases? Gender specific images are okay? I just looked through my carts. WHat about the sports carts? I guess they are out. Locker Talk - -school stuff, is this okay? Boys will be Boys cart -- one of my favorites - -has lots of "boy" images. Robotz -- another one I'd like to use. THese are okay?
What about the paperdoll carts? definitely boy or girl images

For me, I am okay with no exclusions. You get what you get and you don't get upset (my kids use that line all the time!) But, I have both boys and girls so that may be easy for me to say. I think if you start excluding for purposes of gender, you may be better off grouping by topic as opposed to cricut cart name -- boy images, girl images, animals, disney, holiday, etc. Now this sounds like any entirely different swap.

THe reason behind my original question was more about equality - -is a 2 layer phrase that meets the 4 inch dimension in one way requirement equal to some of the more complicated titles with layers or images with layers. I would be inclined to say no to these.

Instead of listing the Disney Carts by their titles, M - for Mickey & Friends, P for Pooh Font, how about a disney group?

[wdwmickey]

Good morning :)

Okay--everyone knows I only have girls, but, I also have some pics of DH from when he was little that need to be put in a "this is your life" type of book so I'm okay with "boyish" stuff ;) I would also think that even if you only have boys you might have some pics of yourself or your mom or sisters or best friends that you could use with "girly" cuts. But, that's just me.

As far a Disney carts I'm okay with either having a Disney group or keeping them in the alphabet groups. And I agree with Susan about no 2 layer titles.

[LOVEMY3KIDDOS]

LOL OK ladies...this is the purpose of an interest thread, right? You guys are awsome with your help! Especially with this being a new and different swap, there will be a need for some tweeking. So, all of this chatter and input is greatly appreciated! Thanks a bunch!


OK...here is what I have...we will not limit things based on gender. So, it will be anything goes in that manner. (By the way, I love the Robotz cart and don't have it...so I am pretty excited that you mention it Susan!!) Cheryl - I agree...it is only a few cuts, so everyone should be able to use them somewhere. If we are creative in our thinking...anything is possible. For example, our high school holds a powderpuff football game. Well, a football related cut could be used for a girl in that respect. I know that is very specific, but I'm just using it as the first example that comes to my head. I don't think there will be so many that it will be overwhelming anyway. The sports carts will be a go. I do like the idea behind the swap being alphabetized by cart title because I think it lends to a better mix and variety that way, which is the purpose behind it. I agree making little categories all over changes the whole thing. So, knowing all this going into the swap, everyone will understand. All in all, no cart, no cut is off limits (unless there are not enough layers). Should we add a phrase / title group? Or, will we leave it up to the swappers to decide within each group if they want to do a title or character or whatever?

To address the phrase issue...giving it more thought, I tend to agree...two layer titles would not be on the same level of quality as the multi-layer (3+) titles. So, if it is just a shadow and top, it will not work. Any titles, phrases used will be at least 3 layers. So, for example, the shadow, base layer, decorative layers (possibly multiple decorative).

The Disney carts....I think it's a great idea to just give them their own seperate category...why did I not think of that on my own? I will add that. Thanks for the suggestion Susan!

Another question...are we ok with the groups of 10? Would groups of maybe 5 be better? I know often we do groups of 5, but we usually are doing more than one element per person within those groups.

Does that address everything up to here? If there are more questions or suggestions, fire away! Like I said, a new swap needs a little nurturing!!! So, thanks for the help! :thumbsup2

And, by the way, I looked at my carts and what I would want to make...I had some that lean a bit more to one gender or the other, so I was contradicting myself last night anyway!! LOL

I will update all of this in the first post so everyone can see it. And, I will add the Disney group. Also, I will wait to hear some opinions on the phrase group being seperate before adding that. I'm fine either way on that one.


Please note that the first post has been updated in the purple section with rules regarding layers and cut choices.

I'm okay with boy stuff...BFF has boys...also could use Robotz for Innovation LO's....sports- megan doesn't do any, but do go to baseball games once in awhile!

like the idea for a phrase group too.

[123SA]

10 to groups is fine with me. I agree -- it is not more work than 5 mini kits.

I like the idea of kicking phrases out to their own group.


New Question: Some images just make more sense small -- like most of the Icon images. The snowflakes on the winter wonderland cart are really nice, but I don't think a 4 inch snowflake is all that useful. Can we make multiple smaller ones? In an element swap, we say 3 shapes are equal to a paper piecing. Could we do 3 snowflakes? Of course this may just complicate things, if it doesn't work at 4 inches, I would just pick another image.

WHat about the border features on some of the carts? Yes or no?

I think we should stick to larger cuts so things don't get too complicated. If you think your item will work at 4" then maybe choose something else on the cart. If we really run into an issue, we can address it later. There should be enough images that will work fine though.

I do think the borders would be fine as long as they are the two layers (at least), which I think most are. The same rule would apply to them...if they are not really detailed enough, they should be embellished somehow. Remember that specialty paper counts as an embellishment...that may be all they need! Sound ok?

I think I will go ahead and add the phrase / title group seperately.

[ckmom97]

This looks fun! I maybe in for a couple of groups if I can get my MK swap groups finished in the next week.

[DisneyBarlans]

Looks like fun! I'm in!:woohoo:

[LOVEMY3KIDDOS]

Yay Anne!!! So glad to have you!

[123SA]

Erin -- when we sign up, we list grp letter, cart name, and ...what for the image? THe page number?

[LOVEMY3KIDDOS]

Yes...I was originally thinking we would do the actual image, but there may be more then one on each cart...for instance on Christmas Cheer, there are multiple stockings. So, when signing up, do it like this:

C. Christmas Cheer p. 93 (as an example)

[123SA]

THanks! I am going to take my cart books with me to practices this week and figure out my choices.

[mommy2mrb]

THanks! I am going to take my cart books with me to practices this week and figure out my choices.

great idea...I should bring mine to Megan's dance class on Monday!

[LOVEMY3KIDDOS]

Just a reminder....this opens Thursdayat 9:00 am...get those lists ready!!! I will be out that day for a few hours in the afternoon to see my grandfather. But, I will be home until about 12:30 and then back about 5:30. I will update anything then. :thumbsup2 Looking forward to a fun new swap!

[DisneyIsTerrific]

In the directions, it states:

If you have no personal preference to your cut you are making, you could take requests from the others in the group...since the idea is to get items we may not normally have access to!

Does this mean that I could just choose my cart and each person in that group can tell me what they'd like from that cart and I could cut something different for each person based on what they want from that cart?

[LOVEMY3KIDDOS]

I guess it does read like that, huh? LOL Sometimes it's so hard to get your idea across on paper (or computer) exactly the way you mean. I didn't exactly mean that each person could request something different. But, thinking more about it, if we are going to give that option, it makes more sense to offer it individually than to let one person request for the group. Obviously, it is up to the person making the cuts if they even WANT to do this. So, now that I talked in circles...

As the person CREATING, if you choose a certain cut, that is fine. If you do not have a preference and would like requests, you may choose to do so. Just understand that you could get up to 9 different requests. I don't think it will happen enough that it will make a huge annoyance in swapping out.

As the person RECEIVING, you may only make a request if the swapper opens that option up.

Does that make sense? Clear as mud? I don't want to make things complicated, but want everyone to have lots of chances to get things thay want or need! :thumbsup2

[DisneyIsTerrific]

I've been looking through my cartridges and it's hard to choose which cartridges and cuts to put on my list as I keep thinking that I might like it and you won't or I need it and you won't!:rotfl: I have a huge stack of cartridges sitting on my coffee table right now!:scared1: I need to narrow that down before sign-ups!

Erin -- have you considered what this will do to the sorting? You could have a bunch of specifically addressed bags. This will add a lot of time to your sorting.

I was doing the same thing!:rotfl2: I finally decided that it was futile to try to guess what others might want. I'm just going with images I've never made before and like. Right now I am at 12 groups. I will probably pick up more I'm sure to fill in groups.

[wdwmickey]

I'm so glad I'm not the only one having a hard time deciding ;) I have almost all of my books out and have chosen at least 2 cuts from each book; I definately need to narrow down my choices :)

I just went through the list on my Gypsy for carts. As for cuts, have not really decided yet. The nice thing is, these will go quickly since it's just the one element per person! :thumbsup2

Erin -- have you considered what this will do to the sorting? You could have a bunch of specifically addressed bags. This will add a lot of time to your sorting.

Yes...and because we are in the trial stages for a new swap here, I decided I will suck it up and deal with it. I don't really think too many people will do the request thing. I could be wrong and want to dry, but for now, I am willing to give it a go. That may change if we run this swap again...but for now we will see.

I think that's what I will do also...make some things that I never have and have wanted to! There is a potential for a lot of fun groups!!

I know this is last minute, but do we want it to be two cuts per person? It seems like everyone has multiples that they like. Just a quick thought.

Off to a MAJOR wrestling match...tough one so fingers crossed. Tonight's match will decide if James is all-conference or his opponent. Unfortunately, his opponent is a senior and very good. James has to really turn it on! James is great, but I get so nervous when his opponent is super-good!

I'll check back to see what thoughts are on this (if any). Also, don't forget there will be the grab bag section where we can do those extras. So, let me know what you all think!

[wdwmickey]

One or two cuts per person is fine with me. I will be letting people choose what cut they want from Destinations. Also I want to use Create a Critter and Christmas Noel--can I call this one Noel so I can choose both cartridges?

The boards have been painfully slow here for the last several days, so I'll get in for sign-ups when I can, but, it may be later in the day since that is when the boards have been moving a little quicker here .

[DisneyIsTerrific]

I still haven't picked what I'm going to cut from my cartridges, but I've at least narrowed down the carts!

I would prefer 1 cut per person, but will do 2 if that's what the majority wants. I'd just need to do less groups.

Good Luck to James tonight! :cheer2:

I'm still thinking on this one. I'm not as far along on my other swaps as I'd like to be.

[123SA]

1. I'd rather do 1 cut.

2. I agree -- the boards have been so slow it is making me crazy. Trying to keep my holiday swap thread updated has been especially hard.

3. I am having the same problem as Cheryl. I have 3 S carts I could use. 2 C carts, 3 D carts etc. But, having to choose will prevent me from signing up for way too many groups.

Noel is fine...I have you covered in sign-ups.

I know...the boards are running at snail's pace...hoping it's not too bad in the morning! Could make for a miserable sign-up!

No worries...you don't even have to list the choice yet. So, don't rush!

1 cut sounds good!!

Good Luck to James tonight! :cheer2:

I'm still thinking on this one. I'm not as far along on my other swaps as I'd like to be.

Thank!! He did losethe match, but they moved the original kid away from him and gave him a tougher kid. The one he wrestled is ranked #2 in the state. So, losing only 6-2 was equal to a victory! We will take it!

Please join us!! These will go quick! You can cut now and take them with you to your kids' competitions to assemble in between the action! :thumbsup2

3. I am pretty narrowed down now...I think! LOL

[mommy2mrb]

Sorry James lost the match :hug: he'll get em next time :thumbsup2

got my list all set just picked 5 carts to start, but might help fill in later!

[morgansmom2000]

Ugh, I keep looking through my cartridges and changing my mind. I think I'm in for a couple words/phrase groups, but I'm having a hard time choosing things that everyone could use!

[JJ&JHsmom]

Erin, just be patient with the boards during sign-ups. It is really slow and painful! I will be at work but an definately in for at least two groups. Will sign up when I get home.

Cassey

[DisneyIsTerrific]

Jennifer, I know how you feel. I was having the same problem. I finally just picked things that I've always liked and just hadn't cut or things I knew I could use. I'm hoping they can also be used by everyone else! I've narrowed my carts down to 5 and I'm sure I'll end up with more to fill in spots!

Sorry I was a few minutes late opening up this am...DS missed the bus (substitute didn't even stop!) :scared1: then the boards...ugh!!!!

Lisa - thanks! He did so well...considering how good the kid is! I have never been so happy for him after a loss! LOL He was actually up in the beginning. He lost 3 point on technical violations...his nerves got the best of him. He didn't set up right and they take points off for that. They are not even actually wrestling at the time! :headache:

Jennifer - no worries...I think most people will be creative and find a use for most cuts they get! You'll make great choices I'm sure!

Cassey - yeah...we have all been having problems huh? Driving us nuts! You did so well with yours though...kept up nicely! See you after work!

No worries!! Thanks for the love!! :love: It was actually a good loss...I know that sounds bizaar, but it was to such a good kid and such a close one that it actually helps James' ranking!

I'll get you in...duplicate carts are fine, just not duplicate cuts! :thumbsup2

Just so you know...the Pixar one is under the Disney group instead of B, ok?

Feel free to come back with more!

So excited the boards let me in this morning :) Here is a copy of the list I sent Erin last night just so everyone can see it ;)

Also, I put you down for your first choices, if you want to change, let me know.

good luck with sign ups and hope your visit with your Grandfather is a good one :goodvibes

I'll get you in! Thanks for joining Lisa! Visit cancelled...he has some tests this am then will be in dialysis for 5 hours this afternoon. My grandmother is going to lunch with her sister then to the local casino for an hour. She needs a break, so it's a good opportunity for her to do that! Over a month straight she has been sitting in a hospital! :sad1:

Would anyone be interested in a girly group? Things from the princess, forever young, etc. carts?

I can do that if there is interest...I would be interested. I have DD and my niece/goddaughter!

[LOVEMY3KIDDOS]

I'd like to add another:

D - Dinosaur Tracks - Tricer - pg 37

Got it!!

[LOVEMY3KIDDOS]

Two Questions:

1. I know that some have said they had more than one cart in certain letters they would like to use. Do you want me to open second groups in some letters that have more carts? Even without the first being full, we could do second groups so that we can do the extras but not be in the same group twice. *I did this already with the Phrases Group.

2. Jennifer (mm2000) has asked about opening a girly group. There are some girly carts already signed up in other groups and we can leave them there but still open a specific group if there is interest. Please weigh in and let me know thoughts on this! *I went ahead and added this for anyone interested incase you missed it!

Also, for anyone taking requests on your cuts, I will post the entire list of groups taking requests for everyone to see (seperately so it is easier to pick out) after sign-ups close. Everyone can pm their choices so they don't get lost in this posting. Then, send them to me just so I have the list for sorting! Does that all make sense?

Thanks for bearing with me on the slow postings!

[wdwmickey]

Erin you're doing a great job!!!! Especially with the boards being so slow lately. I'm good with the way things are, but, I'd be happy to play in a girly girl group.

[morgansmom2000]

I'm sorry, I really shouldn't have added to your work...Don't feel obligated to do it, please!

(The boards are making me CRAZY!)

[LOVEMY3KIDDOS]

Erin you're doing a great job!!!! Especially with the boards being so slow lately. I'm good with the way things are, but, I'd be happy to play in a girly girl group.

Thanks Cheryl!! I'm trying!! LOL I think I will add it...if there are only 3 or 4 of us, it won't be too bad anyway. If there are more, then more fun stuff! LOL But, I will put you in since you said ok...if you change your mind, let me know!

I'm sorry, I really shouldn't have added to your work...Don't feel obligated to do it, please!

(The boards are making me CRAZY!)

No worries silly! It's not a big deal! I'll add it and we will see where it goes!

[party of 3]

sneaking in from work.....shhhhhhhhhhhh....

i'd like grab bag
best of pixar--- mike. (if he has not already been done yet...-have not looked at original post)
and i'll do a phrase but will get back to you on which one since i have to kinda sneak it in today.
thanks!

[ckmom97]

I'm sorry James lost his match, but it sounds like a "good loss". I'm a coach's kid and know from experience that a "good loss" every once in a while is good for you. Makes you want to work even harder.

Please add me to groups:

E--Everyday Paper Dolls
CC--
CC2-
and the girly group if you decide to add it.

I will let you know my carts and cuts tonight. Thanks!

[123SA]

Thanks for bearing with me on the slow postings!

1. Answering this with a question -- what are you going to do at closing? Let's say no one else signs up for the T group. I'd like to be in that grp, but the only T cart I have is Tags, Bags etc -- no good for this swap. Could I join that group with one of my extra S carts? If yes, then I don't want any extra groups, I'll take my chances at closing.

2. Good idea -- I could help fill it if it needs it at the end.

3. You are doing a great job keeping up

Yep...it's a good thing. Actually a confidence booster. The other kid is great and James hung right in there with him! So, it was great! Thanks so much!

Got these and yes...opening that girly group!

[wdwmickey]

Alrighty then here are a couple more choices for me.

May I please add Group O--Old West--I'll let you pick your cut first ;)
Group BB--Toy Story--page 61 (Mr Potatohead)
Group CC--Traveler--page 62 (adventure)

For the girly girl group could I make the crown that says princess on page 67 of the Hannah Montana cart?

Thanks Erin

[morgansmom2000]

;) For the Girly group, I'd like the dress form on Page 49 of Forever Young. I'll probably add something else too, either the sunglasses or some shoes.

[disney-akj]

I will take the last spot in the Disney Group (something from the pooh cart)

I will also take a phrase spot, no idea what yet.

I am suppose to be swap free :laughing: but I think these will be easy : )

[LOVEMY3KIDDOS]

2. Good idea -- I could help fill it if it needs it at the end.

3. You are doing a great job keeping up

1. Ok...how about this...because I too have some groups I'd like to join (T being one of them) and I don't have anything (like you, other than the tags which doesn't work for this)...so.....

How about we don't add second groups (unless the first fills). But, a group like T for example that may only have 1 person signed up, we allow fill-ins with whatever anyone wants on Sunday night / Monday morning. So, if T has one person Sunday night, I could add myself there with something from the Sweet Treats cart (since I used Simply Charmed for my S selection). Does that sound fair? It keeps the group open to the person in it and allows others to use carts they wanted to make use of. I don't really think the person actually using T (in the example) would have any issues with that since they still get the group and will get a good variety back. Let me know your thoughts then I can post the update.

2. I will go ahead and add the group...let me know if you want in.

3. Thanks...between the boards, the interruptions here and trying to go through my Cricut books, it's taking forever...but getting done nonetheless!!!!

[wdwmickey]

Erin--I'm gonna keep looking for the girly group. Even tho I like the crown it is definately more of a title/phrase.

I don't really think the person actually using T (in the example) would have any issues with that since they still get the group and will get a good variety back. Let me know your thoughts then I can post the update.

2. I will go ahead and add the group...let me know if you want in.

3. Thanks...between the boards, the interruptions here and trying to go through my Cricut books, it's taking forever...but getting done nonetheless!!!!

I love this idea :) That way I can have some friends in the "Q" group :thumbsup2

[party of 3]

i'm going to do "gobble" as my phrase from create a critter.
BUT i'm going to do 2 gobbles because in my crazy world we say gobble gobble.
is that ok with everyone?

thanks jennifer for the heads on that cart! :goodvibes

[123SA]

1. Ok...how about this...because I too have some groups I'd like to join (T being one of them) and I don't have anything (like you, other than the tags which doesn't work for this)...so.....

How about we don't add second groups (unless the first fills). But, a group like T for example that may only have 1 person signed up, we allow fill-ins with whatever anyone wants on Sunday night / Monday morning. So, if T has one person Sunday night, I could add myself there with something from the Sweet Treats cart (since I used Simply Charmed for my S selection). Does that sound fair? It keeps the group open to the person in it and allows others to use carts they wanted to make use of.

:rotfl2: Yep, only gobble gobble here too. Is it a NorthEast thing?

[mommy2mrb]

Erin, good that your grandma is getting out! hope you get to see them soon!


change for me....can you take me out of Group D - no dinosaur needed here so wouldn't need most of that group.

I'm interested in the girly group - but only have the two disney princess carts and both paperdoll carts - could I choose something out of the paperdoll everyday for that??

[LOVEMY3KIDDOS]

Alrighty then here are a couple more choices for me.

May I please add Group O--Old West--I'll let you pick your cut first ;)
Group BB--Toy Story--page 61 (Mr Potatohead)
Group CC--Traveler--page 62 (adventure)

For the girly girl group could I make the crown that says princess on page 67 of the Hannah Montana cart?

Thanks Erin

Got it!! I changed my cart choice for the O group...so pick away!

;) For the Girly group, I'd like the dress form on Page 49 of Forever Young. I'll probably add something else too, either the sunglasses or some shoes.

Got it! Thanks...don't have that cart, so that's exciting!

I will take the last spot in the Disney Group (something from the pooh cart)

I will also take a phrase spot, no idea what yet.

I am suppose to be swap free :laughing: but I think these will be easy : )

Gotcha! Thanks for signing up!

Erin--I'm gonna keep looking for the girly group. Even tho I like the crown it is definately more of a title/phrase.

Ok...let me know whenever! You could do it for one of the phrase groups!

I love this idea :) That way I can have some friends in the "Q" group :thumbsup2

Perfect!

Sounds great! Fine with me!

sounds good



:rotfl2: Yep, only gobble gobble here too. Is it a NorthEast thing?

Ok...that's how we will go with it then! 2 gobbles makes sense to me! Who gobbles once?? LOL Even if it's not about the turkey sound, you eat Thanksgiving dinner, then you eat Thanksgiving leftovers, right? LOL You gobble twice! :rotfl2: Sorry...crazy morning!

Erin, good that your grandma is getting out! hope you get to see them soon!

Yep...she needs that break! A few rounds with the slot machines can't hurt! We will be going to the hospital Sunday morning. Wrestling tomorrow and Saturday, then Saturday evening with my BIL, SIL and niece and nephew...love those kids! :love:

I can do that...did you see the notes about what we will do at the end for the "fill-in free-for-all" (that's what I will call it!)? I will make a posting so it stands out on it's own.

You sure can. You could do anything from any of those I'm sure...I'll leave your choice blank for now and you can let me know for sure what you want.

[morgansmom2000]

Gobble Gobble.

[LOVEMY3KIDDOS]

OK...I am going to update everything through here now...got sidetracked by a phone call! But, I did set up a photoshoot for my dog! LOL I know...I'm crazy! But the lady asked to photograph him for free. She saw us in Petsmart and gave me her card. I am going to make a donation to a pet rescue for her though. But, otherwise, I get all the pix on cd that she takes! Yay!! I have all my choices now, too...so it's a once and done update then!! :cool1:

Any changes or requests, let me know! I am going to update, check a few other threads, come back to check on this and then be off for a few hours while I finish cutting my park and icon letters. I will check back then before dinner time.

[mommy2mrb]

ok when you add the girly group I will do:

Everyday PD - pg 45 pj girl - be cute for sleepovers!

[LOVEMY3KIDDOS]

Sometimes we gobble gobble so much we wobble wobble!!! LOL


Lisa - got the girly...will be cute!

Susan - not sure...am I adding you to the girly group?

[LOVEMY3KIDDOS]

Updates:

1. On Sunday night, any groups with less than 5 players will open up to the "fill-in free-for-all". This means you can take any cart you would like to use and fill in some spots. This way, groups don't get dropped and we can use carts in certain letters twice. I'd like to keep the fill-in process even though. So, we will work that out. This will happen through close on Monday afternoon. Any groups with 5 or more will stay as is (unless we get so many fill-in requests that we need to drop them in those).

2. There was a girly group added if you are interested in that.

3. Any swappers allowing others to requests cuts will be listed together after closing so that everyone can pm their choices. So, be sure to check Monday to see if you are in these groups.

[DisneyIsTerrific]

Couple more for me and then I'm going away from this computer and stop signing up!!!!!:goodvibes

S - Sesame Street Friends - Rubber Ducky pg 71

Can I put 3 Birds on Parade in B? If so, please add me to B. I don't know what cut yet, but I haven't used this cart yet and I want to play with it!

It's funny how for some letters I don't have any carts that start with that letter, but then for other letters (like C) I have tons!:rotfl:

Can I please have a spot in the 2nd phrase group. I'd like to make stars an stripes in the stand and salute cart. Page 59.
Please and thank you. And if you want me to wait and see if someone else wants the spot first that's ok too!! I don't want to be greedy. :)

[wdwmickey]

So, I "had" to buy a new cart for the girly girl group ;) I'll be making something from Formal Occasion.

Let's have a vote:
a) horse & carriage pg 67 (my favorite)
b) purse pg 44 AND shoes pg 41
c) girl with record player pg 50

Also if there is still a spot in the second Disney group I'd love to have it :) Classic Disney--pg 34 (Mad Hatter)

For group O--Old West--pg 66 (Barn)

Lastly--can you please remove me from group D. I'll never be able to use that many dinosaurs.

Thanks so much

LOL Had to, huh?? I vote horse & carriage since we had h & c for our wedding! Will add you to the Disney group. Noting the Old West selection. I agree on the Dinosaur thing...I am switching to the Dreams Come True cart...I know it's Disney and there is a seperate group for that, but I'm trying to mix the group up a bit. I will leave you in for now in case you still want to with the change. But, if you still want out, let me know!

[123SA]

Switch me to Doodlecharms - watermelon please, for Grp D. DS just informed me that he is not too old for Valentine's Day cards -- I already need to make 17 dinosaurs!

[LOVEMY3KIDDOS]

Lisa - do you want back in the group now?

[JJ&JHsmom]

Erin, Princess Julia is out straight with school work and drama is starting again next week. I couldn't even convince her to join my first swap! She says maybe in late spring she will be up for more swapping.

Cheryl, horse and carriage has my vote. I am hoping to be able to do a horse and carriage ride with Julia for her sweet 16 trip next year. I am already planning the album, I may need a support group soon.

Cassey

[123SA]

Please add me to Grp J -Joys of the Season, page 69, Holly

For doodlecharms, the page number is 98

Also, for grp L -- if you'd like I can switch to Locker Talk - would the report card be okay? page 59

Few things...

For Group D, do you guys want a dinosaur in there? If not, I can change my cart to Destinations or Doodlecharms. I actually chose the Dinosaur cart because of all the other dinos in the group. DS's GF is dino crazy and I can use lots of them, but I have the cart so can cut my own so no problem with there not being dinos now!:goodvibes I don't mind changing carts if y'all don't want/can't use a dino!:thumbsup2

For my Art Nouveau cut, I'm going to make the Heron on pg 63

For my 3 Birds on Parade, I'm going to let everyone pick their own little birdie. they are all so cute and I can't decide which to choose!

And, I'd like to be in the 2nd Disney group. I'm going to use the Classic Disney cart and make the Thumper on pg 68.

[morgansmom2000]

I'd love to join the second Disney group if there is room, will get back to you on what I'm making.

I'm ok with your Dino...can use some from Animal Kingdom anyway. Before it was a 3:1 ratio...think that's why. But, I don't think one is a problem! See what Cheryl and Susan say, though. :thumbsup2:thumbsup2

Got it!

Will note the pick your own then remind the players at the end!I'm in there...I'll have to check it out! Excited for something different!

I'll get you in there!

We did post atthe same time, but I caught it before I updated the groups so you are good to go!

[morgansmom2000]

Morgan has had long (typically braided) and short, so whatever you choose is fine, Lisa. Oh, and it's brown...

[LOVEMY3KIDDOS]

I will be gone for the rest of the day. James has a wrestling tournament this afternoon so we will be leaving in an hour or two for that. They take forever, so I will not be able to get on possibly until the morning depending on when we actually get home. Tonight he gets to wrestle the #3 kid in the state!! LOL He is getting good matches...so nice practice for when he goes to districts in 3 weeks! Hoping for a trip to Hershey this year (that's where we have our state tournament)!!!

Any additions, requests, changes, etc., just list and I'll update when I can get on again!

[wdwmickey]

Erin--for group H--may I please change to the candle on pg 67 and I'll use festive colors not Halloween colors. Thanks :)

ETA: Good Luck to James!!!!

Yep...will note it!

Thanks!! He did very well...team not so much...so he ended up not seeing the better kid since they changed the match-up. But, he won his match 15-0. There is a mercy rule...they stop the match when someone goes up by 15 points. They matches are 3 periods, 2 minutes each. Well, James won 15-0 in 1:45!!! So, that was great! But, because this was a team tournament, the team had to win to let him wrestle again...and they did not do that. :sad2:

Erin, good luck to James at his tournament!!!!:cheer2: Go James!:cheer2:

Thanks so much! I reported above! ;)

My girls have dark, long, straight hair. Thanks!

Sheila - you may have to note this again at the end of sign-ups, but Lisa is really on top of things, so maybe not. Just wanted to let you know in case!

OK Later has arrived. I do not have my cricut books to look off of because someone is using my cartridges for a few weeks but I have everything downloaded to my G so I can still make the cuts. I am going off the page numbers on cricutsearch.com so I hope they are right??

Anyone have Toy Story that wants to join disney group 3 and make Woody or Buzz cut? I need these :rotfl:

I'll update these...I'm sure that title will be fine as long as it is not single-layer. Also, I could make you a Buzz and Woody if no one else signs up in the group for them. After we close, we will know. Then, if needed, just let me know which ones you want and I'll make them and send them back to you with this swap (if that's ok to wait).

Woohoo!!!! Yay for James :)

Thanks Cheryl!! :hug:

[DisneyIsTerrific]

I'm already in that group and doing Bambi, but if nobody signs up to do Woody and Buzz, I'll cut them for you anyway and send them in to Erin labeled just for you!:goodvibes

[DisneyIsTerrific]

Erin, looks like you were posting as I was typing. If need be, we can each make one for her!

Hi Erin :)

That last spot in the phrases group is bugging me ;) May I please have the spot--Traveler--pg 59

Thanks

[LOVEMY3KIDDOS]

You got it Cheryl!!!

I did go ahead and list another group if anyone is interested, but things seem to be slowing down...it's there if anyone wants, though!

[mommy2mrb]

:woohoo: James!

Erin, you are right :) been making notes of my requests for the girly group, how did you know :confused3:lmao:

[LOVEMY3KIDDOS]

Thanks!!

You are one of the most organized people I have ever met...errr.....talked to in the box! LOL

[123SA]

I'd like to add the G group. I don't have any of the carts already in this grp. Here is what I have -- I have GOing PLaces and Graphically Speaking. For Going Places, I could make the traffic light. Graphically Speaking doesn't have many layered images, however, it does have a bunch of very cool layered title pieces. I think the title pieces are more exciting of the choices I have.

Erin - -please put me in the grp with whichever cart you think works best.

I am sure I will be back tonight to help close. Ummm...after the Superbowl?

[mommy2mrb]

Thanks!!

I'll put you in the group...I think either will be great!! You go ahead and decide which you'd rather do...I know you will make a good choice!

Yeah...want to close this out tomorrow afternoon (finalize everythin around 1 p.m.). So, whatever you would like to sign up for, feel free from here on!!

not so "organized" just like my lists! still haven't tackled my messy scrap room:lmao:

Ahhh...I am getting there with my organizing!! Yay! I have to have lists...otherwise I am lost! DH makes fun of me all the time, but it's all that keeps me together! LOL He tells me I spend more time making the lists than completing them! Haha...there is just too much to do and going on to remember it all!

[LOVEMY3KIDDOS]

It is officially time for the fill-in free-for-all!!!! If there was a group you wanted to get in, but didn't have a cart starting with that letter, go ahead and get in with something else! Or, if a group is almost full and you just want to just into it's letter/category, go for it now! I will close this and finalize groups/numbers tomorrow afternoon around 1:00p.m. Anything with under 5 players will get combined. Thanks again to all of you for signing up! And.......GO GIANTS!!!!!! YAY!!!!!

[123SA]

okay! Let's see. I would like another group, but I am already in groups that look like they will need to be combined. So, put me wherever I guess.

I'll do celebrations page 119

If I can do the multi-layered phrases, I'll take another spot too if there is one.

OK...so, I have you in G...what do you want there? You want me to put you in for Celebrations wherever, right...like to fill-in? And, you want to do another phrase in a group that needs filling? I just want to be sure to get you in where you want but not more than you want! :thumbsup2

For G, I'll do Graphically Speaking, one of the title pieces. page 57 Life is Good

Yes, I have 2 fill in requests. First one is Celebrations, p119. The other is a phrase if it is okay -- sweet treats, pg 59, hip, hip, hooray

I don't care what groups you put me in. I can probably fill more spots if needed, but I don't want to take them all now. Let me know if you need more spots covered.

[LOVEMY3KIDDOS]

Ok...got it! Wanted to be sure! Thanks Susan! Let me know when you decide on what else you would like!

[DisneyIsTerrific]

I'll take some more to help fill things up:

Group O - Campin' Critters - pg 22
Group Q - Noah's ABC Animals - pg 30
Group T - Noah's ABC Animals - pg 59

Tomorrow is my really long day at work (work all day and then have a class I teach that night) so I will not be around until tomorrow night. When you are getting ready to close this you can add me to another couple of groups if you need to. I'll pick carts later (will probably be Noah's ABC Animals since I've just looked at it closely and there's tons I want to cut from there!).

[LaWannaYeager]

I would love to join..
I would like to do Group A- Art Philosophy, G- Going places, L- Luau, P- paper doll dress up, S- Stand and Salute and BB3- Best of Pixar.

Erin, I took a look at the book for my Heritage cart and it looks like all the images just have 1 cut plus a shadow. If this doesn't fit the requirements, please remove me from the H group. Also I'm getting the Life's a Party cart for my birthday, so I help fill in a spot in the B or F (or both, if you need me) groups. Thanks!

[ckmom97]

Works for me. Thanks.

[LOVEMY3KIDDOS]

There are 2 spots I'd like to fill before closing this out this afternoon. You may use any cart to fill with. Groups J (1 spot) and N (1 spot) all have slots. So, any help is appreciated! Thanks for all who signed up and can't wait! I'll post finalized group this evening.

Stephanie - I dropped you into 4 more groups...if that's not ok, let me know! The groups are E, J, R and W. Let me know what you want to do for them when you decide!

[morgansmom2000]

OK Thanks!!!! Could I get you to find something to make for group R...it only has 3 players right now...would like it to have at least 4. :worship: PLEASE!!?? If not. I understand, just thought I'd beg...I mean ask!! LOL

[morgansmom2000]

Sure, not sure what I'll do, but put me down. I'm getting overwhelmed looking at the booklets online! (I have far too many cartridges!)

R - Campin' Critters - pg 26
W - Noah's ABC Animals - pg 39

If that's too many from those carts (I've got 4 cuts from each cart now), I can go through my carts and find something else. I just really love both those carts. From the Campin' Critters carts, I tried to pick things you could use even if you don't go camping.

[mommy2mrb]

Erin my groups are good!

okay, can't remember how you wanted us to handle requests...send the players a PM or post here....so head is still a bit cloudy with my cold!

already cutting my phrase group...

[DisneyBarlans]

When I was looking at the groups, I noticed that we have a lot of critters!!:rotfl:

[mommy2mrb]

this is what I've come up with for my phrases group....to me it doesn't look quite right....this is the first one I've made from this cart...
need some opinions....should the gray shadow be a different color??

http://i973.photobucket.com/albums/ae217/mommy2mrb/P1100206.jpg

[wdwmickey]

Lisa--I have that cart and it can be tricky choosing colors that work well together. I love the blue and orange with the black , but, maybe something different for the gray--I'm thinking white, cream, or pale yellow; not sure if that will be any better :confused3

Erin--my groups look good :) I'll make 6 for the grab bag group. I'm so excited for all the stuff I can use in my everyday books :goodvibes Love those "critters" :thumbsup2

Oops it looks orange on my screen ;) Okay, you're like me...you cut all of them and then decide you don't like the colors together :rotfl: Maybe since they're cut already you could ink or stamp the gray with blue ink? That might make all the difference. Just so you know it does look fine, probably just not what you were picturing in your head. :hug:

[LOVEMY3KIDDOS]

Lisa - It's hard to tell with the coloring on our computers...but I'm wondering if a deep purple would work? Just thinking that is the combo of the two colors...I may be totally off...just thinking out loud! LOL It's hard to picture how it will look...I do the same thing...cut, cut, cut and then go "oh no!" :scared1: But, it doesn't look bad either way, really.

[LOVEMY3KIDDOS]

I loaded all my cuts on my Gypsy (to conserve mat space). So, I'm ready to plug it in and start cutting! Yay! Not sure that I will start before the weekend, but definitely by the weekend or early next week! I have TONS to do, so have to get plugging away!

Is it ok if I change my cuts/cartridges later on though? I looks like there are several poohs and eeyores already being cut so I may switch if that is ok??

[wdwmickey]

I'm in the process of copying the pages from my cart books so I can take my gypsy with me on the plane :)

Just a quick reminder for those of you who will be PMing me--I'll be out of town from Feb 9-14. I won't be back on the DIS Until February 15th.

Lisa, those are too cute! The hair style on mine is perfect for my youngest. Luv the family fun phrase, too. The ink and chalk did the trick.

Lisa, could I ask you to change the hairstyle? I think the ponytail would work better for my Morgan.

Thank you! Great work, by the way!

I went through the list today and I realized that I duplicated someone in the 2nd Disney group, so please change mine to Page 37, which is Piglet's face. And, thank you.

[morgansmom2000]

Oh, and for the girly group, does everyone like this dress form from Forever Young? I'll include another something, maybe a pair of glasses?

Or this one from Nifty Fifties? I'd do the dress too, for this one. Sadly, I have both cartridges! :rolleyes:

[ckmom97]

Jennifer, I like the 50's dress form, too. My kiddos dress up in 50's outfits for their 50th day of school celebration, so I have the perfect pics for that cut.

Not a duplicate so much as two Poohs. I'll do Piglet, it's fine.
