**Specifications for Item(s) ( Theme, Size, Quantity, Colors? )
Since this is a sort of open swap I'd like to keep things equivalent to two cards worth of effort. For instance if you are sending a stamped image, please do three to four depending on whether you are doing embossing for us to color in as we wish, or three if you are doing embossing and finishing them with copics or pencils. Or if you are swapping a paper piecing , please send three.....Since there are so many possibilities I can't list all the equivalencies but I know we all do our best for each other! We can chat to decide if there's someone who comes up with something unique, so let your imagination go!

**Mailing Information ( Mailed To You or Individuals In The Swap )
There is no need to make extras for me, but please put each set into individual bags marked with your name to make sorting easier...also please send a stamped self addressed envelope large enough to accommodate anything that might be swapped like a border! etc.

Easter Boxket Swap 2010

Hostess name: Catie Swarts
Hostess email: CatieSwarts@Gmail.com


-Sign ups begin Tuesday, February 9, 2010
-Sign ups End Saturday, February 13, 2010

*Late signups will only be taken if there are multiples of 2 who sign up, or as the possibility of acting as an “Angel.”*

-Boxes will be Mailed BY Monday, March 22, 2010

-Delivery confirmation required – to be emailed to your partner

-Partners will be assigned Monday, February 15, 2010

-Questionaires will be filled in by Thursday, February 18, 2010

Minimum $ -

Maximum $30.00


Swap requirements:

1) 3 Handmade any occasion cards

2) 3 Pieced Cricut cuts (Exe: a princess, layered owl, Hello Kitty face)

3) 1 altered item: Etched item, Chipboard book, mini album, paint can, mail box, Explosion box, etc…)

4) No basket required (they can be difficult to ship, bulky, hard to pack when mailing items cross-country). HOWEVER, the box you use to ship the items DOES require Easter decorating. Be creative, however, for the post office’s sake, please leave the area with the address undecorated. ALSO, including the recipient’s zip code in LARGE numbers on multiple sides of the box helps to ensure that the box will be flipped/thrown less, consequently decreasing the amount of damage which may occur during shipping.

5) There is a MAXIMUM dollar amount ($30.00) which may be spent on “Purchased then shipped items.” This means, you should adhere to the limit of $30.00 when purchasing items which are NOT included in the creation of requirements 1, 2, 3, and 4. (ie: the basket fillers, goodies, scrappy brads and do-dads).

-Stipulation: all edible goods may be counted as ½ their cost, so that we may all enjoy a little more chocolate and sugar!!! (Exe: a $5 Chocolate bunny, should count as $2.50 toward the $30.00 limit.)

6) Any other goodies you’d like to include are welcome!

3. All swap items can be mailed anytime during the month of the swap but must go postal, at the latest, by the last day of the month.

4. Hostess’s will receive double the goodies from each swap member as a Hostess Gift. If there are 10 members of the swap you will make 11 and send 2 to her.

5. You MUST be a Night Owl and on the Night Owls list OR a close friend/relative of a Night Owl to participate. Your close friends/relatives are most welcome to join, HOWEVER, if you vouch for someone, YOU will be responsible for their sends if they do not complete their obligation to the swap.

7. We do not want to open the swaps up to the general Cricut MB public. Lets keep them small and in the Night Owl group so we don’t have any “Flakers”. We all know and trust each other so that shouldn’t be an issue.

8. The most important rules of these swaps are to HAVE FUN and KISS (Keep It Super Simple). The purpose is to use the supplies we already have and not to have to spend a small fortune to be able to participate.

Individual Swap Specifications

April 2009 - Stephanies Punchie Swap - Closed
Punchies swap - Minimum of 6 per design. You can do as few or as many designs per person. Just make sure your designs and colors match up. No pink snowmen or mustard-colored butterflies. Ew. Borders are fine, I think maybe 2 of each at least 6" long per design. This way, they can go on cards or pieced on a page. You can do the same "sets" for everyone or break it up by person if you know someone might like something in particular. (I like dragonflies in bright colors, for example).

You should probably tuck your punchies in a zippy bag before putting them in the envie, just for security.
Anybody else who wants in, please PM me. I might miss it in a post. Deadline for sign up on this one should be Sunday the 12th, I think, in order to get them done and out by the 30th. Is that ok?

PM me with questions, too, if you want. As soon as I have the list together, I'll PM everyone signed up with totals and addies.

December 2009 – Christmas Card Swap
Since December is usually such a busy month we decided to forego our regular swaps and just work on our Christmas Cards and family activities. If you wish to send cards to the Night Owls just make and send to whomever you wish on the Night Owl Contact List. No Lists or Rules for this one. Merry Christmas!!

TWINS!!!

So my daughter found out she's having twins. WooHoo!!! First ultrasound pictures - she let me have them. She's 15 weeks pregnant, and I've started their book already. How obsessed and excited is that? So, here's the first page.

Ok, so I did a lo with items from one of our swaps. Hubby got GREAT pics of the fireworks, and Diamond took great pics of me and hubby. I also got a pretty good shot of hubby. I used Pam's twinchies to decorate this fairly simple lo. What do you think?

The second shot - below - is with hubby's pic lifted up and the journaling inside. I stamped a few images, colored them in with stickles, and applied glossy accents over the top. I also laminated the top half of the "card" because it's the part that won't be in the page protector.

New stuff

Thanks for supporting me in my recent quest to win the desk. I don't think I was successful, but I am a winner nonetheless...I have some of the best friends a girl could ask for and I love you all!

A Birthday card recently made. Paper is DCWV from the Blossoms and Butterflies stack. I used watercolor pencils and a glitter pen to bling it up!


A card for Tuki! She is such a sweetie, so when I sent her the owls I had to do her a card too!DCWV again!!! Gotta love that paper!

Tuki's owls...the first one is patterned paper with CB embossing and inking.

This owl's background is done with alcohol ink....the picture really doesn't do it justice at all! CB and inking as well!

A wedding shower card for Charisa! Her shower was last Saturday. Dazzling Diamonds, glossy accents and wet embossing on this one!

Thanks for looking! Love you all!

October Monthy SWAP

Hi Friends,
I've finally decided on the theme for our October SWAP, and I'm sure you've all figured it out since I was asking who has Cuttlebugs, etc... Anyway I want to host a Embossing/Die Cut SWAP. It'd be great to get some embossed sheets from folders we don't have. If you don't have embossing folders or the ability to emboss then send out die cuts you can make. Which ever you prefer. Have fun and let me know if you have any questions. As with the other SWAPS send all to me with SASE and I'll sort and send out to everyone on the list. PM or email me if you'd like to be in this SWAP. I know it's a bit in the future so no rush.
