Is anyone planning to go the the SDV event in Norcross, GA in September? I know it isn't near as exciting as going to the Contemporary, but Norcross is my back yard!!

If anyone plans to go to that one, PM me, I would love to meet you there!

 

[BernardandMissBianca]

No sorry! I would if I still lived down that way though.
Dh used to work in Norcross many moons ago.

 

[BernardandMissBianca]

19 days!!!!!!

We're almost home!!!!

My shirts arrived today- should I wash them before doing the iron on.

Rebecca

 

[BernardandMissBianca]

yes, but don't use fabric softener.

Just FYI, it now costs $3-$10 to receive a package held for you at the resort.
The cost depends on the size of the box (like our supplies we’re shipping)
And return shipping is available at the Business Center at the Contemporary.

Do we know is power is available for laptops? I emailed Nancy, but didn’t hear back.
Buffy, does your friend at CR know if there’s WIFI in the ballroom?
I thought so based on the Disney website.

I was hoping on more/different classes than what we have to choose from.
Wish there was more time to plan our own mini-workshops at the DIS tables!

Has anyone else noticed that the dates for 2010 are Friday-Sunday and not Thursday, too?

Oh – the menus are posted!

Yep, I know about the charges. Thanks for the heads up.

There were some plugs in the floor, I think but I'm not sure if we will use them this year. With the whole fire marshall thing last year I wonder how things will change. I thought I remember people using cricuts and stuff though.

Hey Em! Do y'all have floor plugs? And do you have WiFi??

Hmmm interesting observation about next year, that kind of stinks.

How about some Make and Takes for our table? Does anyone have time to whip together a project? There are 12 of us at the tables.

And the menus?!??! YUM!!!!!!

Carol, Diana and I emailed Nancy to get one of the extra spaces for us. We figured that it wasn't that much split among the 3 of us. Then, we'd have the extra space, since we asked to be seated next to each other.

My only question was whether or not we'll have 6 or 8 ft tables this year. Last year at the Yacht Club it was 6ft, so I just wanted to know if it was the same this year.

I can teach a cute flip flop album- I will look at my list of supplies needed and tell you all what to bring in the next couple of days. it is a 6 by6 album that would make a good card if you don't use mini albums.

On that matter- does anyone need me to bring the cricut or cuttlebug- more to have in the room in case it is needed?

Also do any of you need water or soda flats- I can get them at Sam's club if I need to and then just have them unloaded in the crop room when I unload my stuff.

I will think about anyting else for quick make and takes.

Here are pictures of the flip flop album- anyone who wanted to do one would need the following:
double sided paper 1- 1 full and 1 half (6 by 10)
double sided paper 2- 1 sheet
paper for cover- 1/2 sheet- 2 6by6 squares
**choose any papers you want that match each other- I would suggest that the papers (other than cover) should be heavy weight. I used sei foil cardstock when i did mine.

anything you want to decorate the pages

Here are some photos of the book I made:

I will be driving down on Thursday 8/27. If anyone wants to ship their boxes to me I would be happy to bring them down with me. It would save you a little to spend on more supplies. LOL

I did notice the shorter time for next year. I am guessing that the attendance will be quite a bit less then last year and most people probably are not starting till Friday or later due to trying to save money. They don't even have any classes scheduled for Thursday like they did last year. And as others have said the class selection for this year is definately not up to what was offered last year. Maybe I will get more done this year by not going to so many classes like I did last year.

See you all soon!!!

Rebecca, if you could get a case of water that would be terrific!

no idea I would assume 6 ft.

Cute book!!!

I kind of need the cricut. I will know for sure by the end of the week, I need to cut some titles this week but I don't know how far I will get. Is it the E?

We might want to get waters, maybe? I'm not stopping at the store this time since our flight gets in so late. Mom will need dinner as soon as we get there.

I'll go look to see what I can find in the way of make and takes. I'm sure I have something! I wish I had more time or we could do a page kit each and have a nice album by the end of the week.

Do we want some kind of sign for the tables?

 

[rlovew]

Yes- I have the E- I only have the pooh and planting schoolbook fonts though. I don't buy the fonts for the most part so if you want others you need to bring them.

So do I need to make instructions for the book class?- It will probably only take us about 20-30 minutes depending on how much cutting time it takes.

How about if we do signature tags on Friday for our breakfast on Saturday- We would need 10 tags total for each character and there are normally 5

Tigger

Pooh

Mad Hatter

Mary Poppins

Alice

If we had a couple other people that wanted to put something together maybe we could do a couple of blank tags in case someone else showed up for breakfast - or maybe a topper for a page.

The tags could be a layered shape or just a plain tag with some sort of embellishment- do we have 5 people going to breakfast that would want to put together kits to make tags on Friday. I would be willing to do 1 of them- it wouldn't matter which one.

Rebecca

 

[BernardandMissBianca]

I can do some!

Let's see who else is game.

 

[pixiedustforever]

I will supply the #8 blank tags for the autograph tags!
They're 6 1/4 x 3 1/8"

Marylee

 

[BernardandMissBianca]

Great size!!

so what other supplies do we need?

and what will the layout look like?

Do we want to skip the other make and takes so we can concentrate on these?

 

[rlovew]

Great size!!

so what other supplies do we need?
Decor for each of the tags- do we want to do these before or after we go- with the autograph on or off
Alice- maybe teacups/mushrooms/blue or yellow ribbon or fiber
Mary Poppins- black fiber/ribbon (I have some of both- more fiber), umbrella/ kite/horse
Tigger- curly ques (punches or stamps)/ black or orange ribbon or fiber/ springs
Mad Hatter- patterned paper for top hats/tea cups or pots/ multicolored fibers or ribbons
Pooh- red and yellow fiber, huney pots, bees, flowers

and what will the layout look like? It depends - do we want spaces for a photo with each character with the tags- do we want them to be small or normal size (we need more than 1 or layered layouts for this)

Do we want to skip the other make and takes so we can concentrate on these?

It doesn't matter to me- I can do the little books if people want (some aren't doing breakfast) but I am not hurt if people don't want wouldn't use them- If I did them I was going to use Mickey colors(just cardstock) for mine and make a book for the weekend from it.
