AK swap for old (er, non-newbie) scrappers

[christinadei]

There is an AK swap going on for the newbies, but I know we already had one planned for after the MK swap. so I"m just testing interest and trying to keep this the least confusing I can. So let me know ifyou guys are still interested. I plan on starting it after the MK swap is over and hosting it in a traditional way, Group A, B, you chose one element from A and then one from B as well and then I'll open new groups as needed. I'd like to keep it b/t 10-12 people per group so that it won't be overwhelming to anyone.

So don't worry, the AK swap will happen. I imagine I"ll open it around March 1. I'm also open to any ideas, thoughts or suggestions. I've never hosted a swap before, but I"m excited about it!

I want in on this one!!! I don't want to hog up a newbie slot and I missed the MK one !! Thanks Michelle

I would do it if the stuff that I sent for the MK is up to snuff. I am sort of worried it may not be. But I am also hoping that when I see other stuff I will get other ideas and improve. So put me down as interested, but needing some feedback when I submit my stuff.

I am so in for your AK swap. I, too, don't want to take a newbie spot in the other one but really want to get all of my Park Swaps done.

Thanks for hosting! It was hard work but also fun. I just recommend that you not get a kidney stone while you're doing it because it really makes it hard to get everything out!

I want to play in both

[RealMickeysGirl]

I definitely want to participate in an AK swap!!

 

[christinadei]

I'm glad to know there is interest and don't worry, I am fairly new to this and never feel my stuff is up to par. Most people are more experienced adn talented than me, but I don't let it stop me. NO snobs here, that's for sure!

I was terrified of this with my first swap as well but it turned out that my stuff was really just as nice as the other swappers. I think it's normal for us to be concerned that our stuff isn't good enough but one of the best things about a swap is that not everyone has the same style or ideas. I've gotten some really innovative, gorgeous stuff back because these women are truly talented. Is mine different than theirs? Absolutely! Is it worse? Possibly but no one has ever said anything and I don't really think anyone ever would. The whole point is that we have friendly swaps because we try to be a friendly board.

Go ahead and play along as I'm sure you will find that your items are great!

You did Pirates for the ride swap & Mission Space for the Epcot swap, didn't you? Your stuff was great! I wouldn't be worried.

And I'm with Em! I'd like to do both as long as there's room.

Thank you for the kind words. OK I am in too.

I don't feel like a newbie anymore, so I will wait for this AK swap after the MK going on right now.

You have a great memory! ANd are too kind! My stuff is never up to par, in my opinion, but it's still fun and everyone is as nice as you! I am learning from seeing everyones great stuff too!

 

[christinadei]

OH and Em and Deb, I'm sure there is plenty of room in both swaps for you both. We will keep adding groups as needed.

 

[bigsis1970]

I can't wait.. (still kicking myself from missing the MK swap) I will have to get working on my Dining swap to hold me over - I just signed up for more stuff over there , having withdrawls me thinks!!! LOL

 

[inky dinky doo]

Count me in if it's one from Group A and one from Group B. What can I say! That's what I'm used to, so that's what's easier for me.

 

[jennyL]

I'm interested. Swaps are very addictive but so much fun.

Yes, that's how I plan on doing it. As close to normal as I possibly can, since I've never hosted before.

I just ordered the stuff for the MK swap, I can't wait to get started!

If it's Bazzill AK swap I'd be in ... I do prefer page kits though!!

No, I'm just thinking a traditional swap, pick an element from group A and then group B (if you want to do two). Choose your elements and themes and do them how you want. I don't even know what bazill paper looks like! Sorry though. I do want to make everyone happy.
