Epcot Park Swap – Team Vision

Final Details


Our group has 12 swappers so do enough for everyone to have one of everything (If you are a multiple group, i.e. Tags, Squares, etc. make sure to follow *your* instructions for how many per person).

When finished, baggy or envelope them all off into separate baggies. (NOTE: You may put both Group A and B in the same bag as everyone is doing both groups). Make sure your name/screename is on there somewhere so we can all give credit where its due.

Put all of the individual baggies into 1 big gallon sized baggie (rain protection) then in whatever you choose to ship in AND make sure to add either a Flat Rate (3.85) stamp or cash so you'll get your stuff back. (We've used the Priority Envelopes in the past and it has worked really well...)

DOUBLE AGENT INSTRUCTIONS: If you have a ** by your name, it means that you are participating in more than 1 group. You will need to baggy or envelope Group A & B for each group into separate bags and mark your DIS name and group name on the outside. Put all of the individual baggies for each group into SEPARATE big gallon baggies then in whatever you choose to ship in. Make sure to include a Bulk Rate ($7.70) stamp or cash so you’ll get your stuff back. You will probably have to ship to me in the Bulk Rate boxes and I will do the same for the return trip.

PLEASE make sure to include your full name on/in the envelope somewhere and make sure to have a legible copy of your address somewhere that I can read it. You DO NOT need to send an envelope. After it’s packaged up, mail it to me. Please check your PMs for my address.

Any questions/comments/concerns PLEASE let me know (either here, PM or email). If life gets in the way and you feel you may not make the deadline- PLEASE let us know as soon as you do so that we can help.

I don't know how I missed this, but I'm down for borders in both group A & group B!! I'm sure no one really needs 4 borders for Mexico. :blush: I'll come up with something different - I just don't know what yet. :confused3

Hi Team Vision!

So, how's everyone doing? Are we on track for a November 1 deadline? Drop in and tell us how you're doing!

Cheers and Happy Scrapping!

P.S. VanillaAngel - Have you decided on a different element yet? Please let me know ASAP. :flower:
 

:wave2: Checking in.
Got all my supplies (I think) and it's next on my list after I'm finished with ABC swap.
 
Hi Shauna! :wave: VanillaAngel doesn't stop by the DIS too often as she's taking a couple grad classes in addition to working full time, so I'm being an interfering MIL & answering for her. :blush:

At one point she & Nez were just going to switch an element between them:
Nez - eyelets/fiber & borders for Illuminations
VanillaAngel - borders & frames for Mexicon

However, I think she decided to do a mini file folder instead. DD (Nez) isn't home tonight either, so I can't ask what she ended up doing. Does it really matter as long as she doesn't do a duplicate of anything? If you really need to know, I'll see if I can find out tonight or tomorrow.
 
Sorry ya'll, but I'm not quite through with mine, and I've had to push my trip up 2 days due to the storm. I'm leaving this morning instead of Saturday, so I'll mail out when I get back on the 31st. I'm sorry to be holding up the group, but all of yesterday was spent juggling car, hotel, and air ressies. I was planning on spending yesterday finishing up my things.
 
Hi Ladies!

I have a question for y'all. It seems that a lot of us have had the busy bug attack lately. This is just a question and by no means set in stone, but how do y'all feel about pushing the deadline back to November 15? I don't want anyone to feel that we don't value the efforts of those that have finished their items on time. I just don't want anyone to feel rushed or panicked because things have changed (like SweetMaxine's trip).

What do y'all think?

Oh, and mail call is posted on the first post of this thread. Great job MichellePooh!!
 
That sounds like a terrific idea to me! *breathes a sigh of relief* I know this isn't my group, but it would sure be helpful with all the stuff I have going on.

Nez says a few more days would be good for her as well - some of her honors classes are taking more time than she expected.

Going out on a limb here, but since VanillaAngel hasn't been by to show me her stuff (and gloat that she's finished & I'm not LOL) I'm guessing that she'd appreciate a few more days as well.

Having said all that - we can still make the original deadline if need be.

Hi there! You are right that it doesn't matter as long as her second element isn't a duplicate. I'll be excited to see the finished product!
 
I'd love for the due date to change to November 15th! I have all my supplies, but havent' had a chance to start on them yet! That would greatly reduce my stress levels. But it no one else wants to change it, i can bust it to get them done!
 
I would kiss your feet if the due date were changed! I have been working on my ABC swap items and the Epcot ones have sat stagnant for awhile...
 
I am also thinking of changing my theme from Fountains to "holidays around the world" or "candlelight processional".... any objections?
 
Pushing the due date out a bit seems like a great idea to me, too. I, too have been working on ABC swap and haven't touched this one yet. But if need be, I can have them done by the first as well.

We'll go with the flow, but would prefer the Fountains. We've never been during the holidays & wouldn't really have a use for those things. OTOH if you'd originally signed up with that as your theme, we still would have participated.

I don't mind as either is appropriate for my stuff. It depends on what everyone thinks. Personally, I love the holiday thing but that's because I'm going then! The Fountains might be more user friendly for everyone though because you can use that stuff for anytime when you go but holiday stuff is very restrictive.

What does everyone else think?
 
I am totally :rotfl2: here. I asked everyone how they were doing a few days ago and got almost no responses. I ask if we should move the deadline and everyone gets excited and chimes in!

I was thinking you guys were feeling the pinch when I didn't hear from many of you originally. I have no problem moving the deadline. It does mean that you guys probably won't get your stuff until the first of December between late mail, repackaging and mailing. If y'all are OK with that, then I am too. I'll wait to hear from a few more of you before I make the official announcement but I am glad to hear that you don't mind. :teeth:
 
I can stick with fountains. I haven't started yet (SORRY!) so it's no more work either way. I was just feeling in a "holiday mood" with the holidays coming up. But Fountains works just as well for me... I just need to come up with my concept... I think I've got an idea on that.... :Pinkbounc
 
Shauna - I would love to have the 15th as the due date!!! I too was feeling the crunch from the ABC swap and this one!!! Thank you!
Joy - what ever you decide is ok with me - fountains, holiday's or CP..
Michelle
