Resort Swap Final Listing, Details & Progress Thread DUE 7/24/06 - updated 7/29/06

[bigsis1970]

Hi there Caitsmama -- allset for matchbook in WL group! Glad to have you aboard! Michelle

 

[Tink&Belle's Mom]

you want 2 set then we tell the group make 10, I send you back 2 identical sets..

Tink&Belle's Mom - Pop (*just let me know when you decide)

I think I would like to go ahead and get two copies of everything in the Pop group. My mom has been coveting some of my other swap stuff for her past Disney trips albums, and this way I can give her the second set, if it is not a problem for everyone to make that extra set.

Also, you could change me to 2 tags in the Poly group, if that would work. I missed that 2 photo mats were already spoken for, and was just trying to get something different.

Thanks!!

Can you help me out?

I need help here. Is this thread the finished, closed swap? How many of each thing are we making? Did I miss something?

 

[Tink&Belle's Mom]

Oops--one more thing--I see the you have me down for a matchbook for the Wilderness Lodge group? I have never done one of those. I think that if the mini file folder is taken, I would prefer to choose something else, if that is okay?

 

[New England Eeyore]

Hi Michelle,

Don't forget to change my listing for POFQ to a Tag and 2 squares so we don't have a duplicate in that group.

Thanks!!

Hi Girls everything is updated and you all should see a number of items to make for each resort .. Tink&Belle's Mom Just let me know what you would like to make for the WL .. Michelle

 

[hopemax]

I think what happened in the WL group is that Caitsmama wanted to do a matchbook instead of a mini file folder, but when bigsis 1970 made the update, she updated Tink & BelleMom's listing instead of Caitsmama's.

Bigsis1970, I've sent you 2 PM's but I'm not getting a read response - are they not reaching you? Please try Pming me so I can reply with my details. I also need the address to send my completed swap to!

 

[rlovew]

I'm all done. I just need to get the address to send in my items.

 

[bigsis1970]

Girls just a quick note -- My computer has crashed and I hope to be back and running this weekend -- I will respond ASAP as its online -- I didn't mean to leave you all hanging .. Michelle

I know BigSis is having computer problems.... can anyone answer this....

Is there a reason that borders and toppers are less than 12 inches? Is it a fit in the envelope thing or because we do not know what size the other swappers scrap in?

I have designed an Old Key West toppper that I LOVE and would like to use it for the swap but it is 12 inches with no way of cutting it down.m Any suggestions or answers would eb appreciated.

Thanks
M

I know most of the time people have the topper 8 inches/ 11 inches for borders in case someone uses 8X11 paper.

I would PM BigSis and let her know what you are thinking... she'll probably check in tomorrow....

 

[AlexWyattMommy]

Hi, newbie here. I'm not sure how often we are supposed to check in and when that starts. I have 6 of my 10 resorts done and have the rest sketched out, it's just finding the time to do them. I will have them done by the due date. Thanks for letting me join the swap.

 

[Mickster]

I'm done. I just need bigsis1970's address. Hurray!

 

[MazdaUK]

I've got my paper cut, just ready to assemble. Trouble is I'm waiting on some stuff from America so i can work out how much postage to send Bigsis - if anyone knows what it will cost in £ do let me know!

My little piglet - why not check with your fellow swapees - maybe someone would like the bigger size?

ETA: I've done mine - hope you all like them! Its the first time I've done this so can someone just confirm for me:

1: the ziplock bags - are they the firm ones with a sliding fastener from the stationers rather than the ones with a press and close seal you can buy for freezer use?

2. Do we send off our own "share" of the elements and get them straight back, or leave them out of the posting?

I'm hoping to post off by the end of this week to allow extra time to cross the Atlantic!

Checking in and subscribing

 

[rlovew]

Ziplock bags are any bag that seal closed- you could use either type and it wouldn't matter.

Sending in Swap items- generally you mail all the items in because it is easier to sort them if they have everything and then send it out to you. So you should send in your share of stuff too.

 

[MazdaUK]

Thanks, that's great. How big is a gallon size? A3? A4? Freezer bags weigh less but I'm not sure if I have the right sizes - I'll rummage around and see what I can find.

I've found an old envelope from US which held scrapbooking so Ic an use that to work out postage etc.

 

[rlovew]

A gallon is about 4 liters. They are normally the largest of the bags used for food storage- basically it just needs to be big enough to hold all the smaller bags you put into it.

 

[MyLittlePiglet]

Those in Beach Club & Yacht Club AND Beach Club Villas group question for you...... Pming Bigsis too.

I have a CM "wazy" star cutting shape. I think it would be cool for our group with crumbled or textured cardstock in starfish colors. Can fit a 4 X 6 photo with crop around star angles. What does everyone think? I am totally cool with a no.

I have not yet figured how to post images so if someone wants to pm there private email address I could send out a picture to see or you could post to the board.

TIA.
