I'm working on these for a fellow DISer. [/IMG]

May I ask where did you get the DCL logo? I have a tiny machine myself and I'd love to make a few things for Christmas gifts!

I do my own digitizing.

What kind of machine do you have?

For our Cruise we're going on in April 2013 I made ribbon key fobs as part of our FE Gift. I just finished making 120 of them last weekend. Made enough so every person in our FE group can have one. They were fun to make & quite easy to put together. Ordered the key fob hardware, nylon webbing & Disney Cruise line Grossgrain ribbon online to make them. I'm making disney character magnets next weekend. I bought chipboard Disney characters from the scrapbooking section of our local craft store & I am attaching them to magnet paper (also bought from local craft store) & then cutting them out. There you have it Disney character magnets.
Here is a link to the pic of the ribbon key fobs I made. Couldn't get the pic to load properly, sorry. I guess I'll get the hang of this one day.

What are the rules for telling people about a website? I don't want to break the rules.

I have a mailing list for crafters where we buy as a group to get wholesale prices on things you'd use to make FE gifts. (ribbon, key fob hardware, bags etc) I won't say the name unless someone says its ok, in the rules. I looked and can't find specific info either way.

Jen,
Can you private message me the website info for the FE gift supplies? That way we're not breaking any rules. That would be great.
Thanks

The rules (as I understand them) say that if you recommend someone, you are supposed to put the entire website address in the post. If the filters blank it out with asterisks, then that website is banned by the Dis and you cannot post it. If the website is not currently banned, then you are ok.

You may not use vague language or PMs to get around banned websites to recommend a vendor.

If the website is banned in the main forum it will be banned in PMs as well. Those are also monitored by the moderators. If you want to share information with someone that is not permitted by the rules of the Dis, you must use your own e-mail.

I'm one of the people that organizes the "buys" so I wasn't sure how that mattered. I certainly recommend myself. LOL But there are 600 other people on the list that would vouch for the people that do the buys. I'll wait and see what the consensus is.

I've seen people do it before but I just wanted to make double sure before I said anything.

Better safe than sorry.

I am not sure of the rules, but am interested in the website. Can you email me the link? My email is julie@thecoyotesden.net

Thanks julie

I'm not sure how similar or different this is, but I know someone who was flogged for mentioning she made certain items for sale. She was told you are not allowed to solicit sales here. Of course I've seen many do it with no reprocussions, so...

Ok. Well, no one has chimed in with a "no" so here is the info.

It is a mailing list that you can subscribe to. Members need to be approved so just put Disboards in there if it asks you. Once you're approved, feel free to introduce yourself and ask any questions and tell us what you are looking for.

Just send a blank email to:
Subscribe:
Sew-Fun-Buys-subscribe@yahoogroups.com

Or you can go to the yahoo website: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Sew-Fun-Buys/

We do buys for items but we also talk about crafting as well as help each other when problems come up.

This is so cute. You said you found it on the Disign thread. Do you have the exact link? Every time I try to print it, it comes out blurry. Thanks
