“The cutting room floor”

  This group is for individuals who would like to swap die cuts in a round robin fashion. These swaps generally move slowly as many people handle the package.


  Once all slots are filled (From 6 to 8 people) The moderator will put the names in a hat and choose the person who will start off the swap. All names and address’ are kept by the moderator and will only be released to the next person in line.I do not keep address’ from one group to another. This is done mainly to protect identity and privacy.

  This swap is designed for individuals who own a steel rule die cutting system, such as Wizzard, Accucut,Big shot, etc., Cricut and electronic cutters swap in the Criketeers.


Acceptable materials to cut from:


Chipboard (clean)
Manila
Card stock
Metal- (not sharp)
canvas






Size of die cut What the “Starter” will be cutting initially.


Large 6″ or larger Cut six sets of three different dies


Medium 3 to 5 ” Cut eight sets of three different dies


Small <3″ Cut twelve sets of three different dies


** NO light weight pattern paper please

 Take out as many or as few items as you would like. Keep the package for a week or so so you get all out that you would like to have. Once you have pulled out what you want, replace it with the same or similar size die cuts, the same number for each that you removed. These replacement die cuts should go into the package inside a zip type baggie with your name on it, the name of the die and the size.


  When preparing die cuts, please keep pets and cigarette smoke away from these items. We all love our pets and some of us enjoy cigarettes, however the person(s) who receive the swap may not feel the same way. For example I am so highly allergic to cats that her eyes swell shut and she has trouble breathing. Many people find cigarette smoke smell to be offensive.

  If you are looking for a specific die cut, please contact the moderator and she will try and find some one with the die and arrange a one on one swap.

  If you are unable to provide a postal confirmation code, do not join the swap. Every person in the group is required to send the package to the next person with this information posted to the group.


  With any group, communication is key. Please “friend” the moderator. With ANY group swap you participate in, please make sure to follow the threads so you are on top of any changes.
 

  Hi Friends, you have to check out my favorite online group!  Your Paper Pantry. Click HERE!

  I had such a good time making these. So you just asked well, Loretta, what are these?

  They are actually bags to store what ever you want inside, like socks, lingerie, etc., You make three and get three different ones in return.  I actually plan to store some of my laces and trims in the ones I receive back.

  I messed up the first one I tried so I started over.  The sewing process was very simple, just a running stitch with the machine.  I embellished some with trims, ribbons and flowers from my stash.  It was a great opportunity to be able to use up supplies I would otherwise be hoarding.

 Speaking of hoarding, I will be co-moderating the stash diet challenge on Your Paper Pantry as well.  I hope you will check it out.  It is only $12.00 a year to join.  That is only $1.00 a month.  Well worth the fee.  Great people, fun swaps and new stuff to try and do every month.

  Stamp Happy, be a blessing!
