Ive allready had some PMs about what people are sending. :) Yum Yum :) they are lovelly

[tree_saw]

this sounds like a perfect swap foe me..please can i join

teresa

[wssla00]

absolutely you're on the board :)

[Wisher]

thanks for adding me sarah - looking forward to this one!

[wssla00]

im just ordering now! Mines coming from the US so i want to get it in good time

[scrapjax]

Can't wait see what everyones sent at the end!!! Great idea for a swap!

[wssla00]

OK i am going to be naughty and let you know what i have ordered even though all the rest will be a suprise!
OK i have bought enough to share round the group.
czech moulded glass leaves
heart saying stickers like love heart sweets
10 gold star charms
10 gold moon charms
10 tiny thermometers
Yay all a little different!

Anyone wants the website PM me. :)

[toothfairytrace]

could I please join this one?

I can do a tin to alter filled with wooden discs for everyone? How does that sound?

[Wisher]

oooooh sounds lovely - i hope you are in my group!

[Wisher]

I bet it is the three differnt colour website lol

If so ...i am glad you have said what you are getting cos that is where I was going to go!

[wssla00]

lol yupperoony that is the best place :)

[Skippie]

Ok possible dumb question here sarah...but I just have to ask :blink:

Are we purchasing £5 worth of embellies and they're going to only one person (like a direct swap, via you) or are they to be split into 10 equal bags for everyone to share?

It's late, that's my excuse and i'm sticking to it :lol:

[wssla00]

lol me too. Everyone who has pm'd me are splitting into ten equal bags but whatever gets sent to me will be divided up into the group of ten so ill make it work by hook or by crook lol

[Skippie]

Great and thanks for clarifying that :wub:

you're doing a great job hun, I'm sure it'll be a great success :D

[wssla00]

Thank you Anna lol it is quite exciting :)

[Skippie]

I'm quite excited for you too :lol:

I love swaps :D :wub: thanks for doing this one :D

[wssla00]

me too. not a prob i love the suprises you get in them!

[Wisher]

sorry if this spoils a surprise but to avoid duplication from THAT site:

I have ordered (for each person in my group):
Cowgirl charm
Bunny Brad
Trio brad
wordcharm - metal
friendship tag (girly)
holiday domino
mini compass (girly)
snowman, christmas tree and pirate mini playing cards (selection)

yum yum

[Skippie]

:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

[tree_saw]

i am in your group anna!!

[Skippie]

Yippee :lol:

[Sky-blue-pink]

I would really love to do this - so could you count me in - Am I right that this means that we can go a little bit towards the 'altered-ish' area?

[Wisher]

I would really love to do this - so could you count me in - Am I right that this means that we can go a little bit towards the 'altered-ish' area?

well I have lol - it looks like sarah has too - hope we are in the same group.

[wssla00]

yep we can indeed. your name is so apt marie! ive added you to the list. That is some list of stuff wisher! lol aah well at least its cheap.

[Sky-blue-pink]

For anyone not wishing to go international there is an excellent supplier of similar stuff - also cheap - either no or very little in the way of P&P and fast service, oh yes and FREEBIES with you order - at least I got some!!!! PM me if you'd like to know!! (Not so much of a name connection this time tho'!!) lol

[AJH]

Thanks so much for that fab link Marie - great site!

Have ordered my bits and pieces , is it best to post here what we're getting or just leave it as a surprise ?

xx

[wssla00]

some people have let me know so ill keep those as a suprise but if you cant keep it a secret like me lol then you can post here.

[AJH]

Ooooooooo shall I keep it a surprise then ! I guess it doesnt really matter about doubling up etc as this is such a varied swap.
xx

[tree_saw]

mine will be a surprise cause i'll have to go out shopping in a few weeks when i have some money.....

[wssla00]

theres no rush we have a month anyway. Claires have some lovelly stuff as do poundland actually. Im such a bargain hunter. I got loadsa stuff a couple of weeks ago in my poundshop it only cost me 4 pounds! And in claires atm they have 15 charms for a fiver on their sale items! I got loads! well 15 lol

[leeann21]

heya :D i havent a clue what i am going to buy yet but i will think hard :D

[wssla00]

lol its quite fun looking you know. I think it reminds me of when i was a kid and had a little stocking to open first at christmas filled with things like dominoes and cards and balls and the like. That was the best!

[wssla00]

wow that is such a lovelly site! I have bookmarked it! :)

[wssla00]

OK guys we have some lovelly things coming through... If you want to post what you are getting ill add it to the frount page so you can see the stash growing!

[Wisher]

OK guys we have some lovelly things coming through... If you want to post what you are getting ill add it to the frount page so you can see the stash growing!

I have changed my mind on my stuff....*taps finger on nose* so disregard my previous post. If anyone is deperate for the stuff i mentioned it is available from that three coloured US site! lol

[wssla00]

i have just been approved for another swap it is a 6x6 page kit swap if anyone wants its here http://www.ukscrappers.co.uk/boards/...ad.php?t=99950

lol not a prob a womans perogative to change her mind i have done that many times today :)

[Lynne W]

just saying hello, so I can bookmark this thread. No idea what i'm sending yet, have to go shopping!!! :D

[wssla00]

lol great welcome! :)

[AJH]

Im sending the following (all unaltered) each bag will have the same sort of mixture:

clock faces, guitar picks, few bottle caps each and some clear coloured small discs.

Thats what Ive bought anyway but will have a rummage and see if I have anything else I can add from my stash.

Hope these are OK for everyone.

xx

[wssla00]

They sound great :)

[Skippie]

OK...I'm getting angry with myself....have just bagged up 10 seperate bags of things up, each with a mixture of embellies....then re-read the first thread! Am I packing 10 bags to be sent to each member in the group or one bag of goodies to be sent for one member ?

OMG I think I actually asked this last night...new excuse, but genuine. My Fibro is really giving me gip tonight :(

[wssla00]

10 bags are great :) but if you want to just send it in a lump then ill sort it out. not a prob

[Skippie]

:wub: you are one in a million and even though I'm sat here in pain you've just made my day :D

Was worried about it only being for one person and the poor so and so ending up with hundreds of things :lol:
I have sorted mine into 10 different bags :)

I can continue with my quest now....farewell fair maiden :lol:

oh and ta muchly :P

[just_gilly]

flipping 'eck you are gonna have a right headache Sarah when you get all the stuff, I better rethink my stuff cos I was just doing one package, I'll piece together 10 smaller ones now, will have amongst other bits and bobs, some altered slide mounts, decorated bottle caps, clips, poker chips, mini dominoes

[wssla00]

Not a prob ill organise it all and make up any deficits from my own stash so everyones equal. If its easier for you if you just want to sent the postage stamps i can get jiffy bags from poundland so it saves you having to send that along side your swap to save the weight.

[just_gilly]

you could probably reuse the envelope/jiffy bag that we send the stuff in, if we send our name and address on a bit of paper or something to stick over the top.

[wssla00]

Thats a good idea :) Im so dozy today

Everyone say hi to my adodtpee Audrey (Poet Crafty) she is joining us for the swap

[Wisher]

Hi Audrey

Great to have you onboard - welcome to UKS

[Poet Crafty]

Oh ho Sarah - I am keeping it all a big secret and hopefully a nice surprise for whoever gets the stash ! I am soooo excited !!! ::)))

[scrapjax]

Can someone PM me the three coloured site??? I've got some stuff from a UK site but want to have a nosey at this other one now!!!

[wssla00]

All done although looking at your avatar i dont know whether i should have lol

[wssla00]

Aah Audrey there are some lovelly things people have been buying!

[AJH]

Hi got some of my goodies in the post today but although I spent over the £5 they didnt look much so I will buy some more bits to send. I know I said clock faces in my message but I did mean watch faces incase you all thought I meant something HUGE !

xx

[wssla00]

lol not a prob i just coppied and pasted! Ill ammend for ya :)

[scrapjax]

All done although looking at your avatar i dont know whether i should have lol

:lol: I know, but its for a swap so it doesn't count surely!! ;) :lol:

[wssla00]

Aaah ok ;)

[toothfairytrace]

Hi Girls! I was looking through my tins this afternoon and once I split the wooden discs between them there will still be space....I got a bargain on some round (unused!) beer coasters so will add a few to each tin as well to bump it up a bit! I have gone over the budget but got the tins & coasters in bulk so don't mind adding on!

This swap is such FUN!!!

[Skippie]

Good Morning Sarah, I've left a link to your swap in my team thread and I hope you don't mind? :)

[tree_saw]

morning ladies

[wssla00]

Oh no the more the merrier! Im glad you are all enjoying it! that sounds lovelly tracey.
Morning teresa. How are ya today?

[Moonstone]

[wssla00]

[wssla00]

My you are organised! lol ive ordered but am just waiting for the stuff.

[scrapjax]

Can you add me to the other group as well please??

[Sky-blue-pink]

Even tho' I've been telling the world about the wee Scottish site - I've actually ordered my stuff form the OTHER site - too do with colours etc - couldn't resist the name strangely! ;-))

Could you add me to another group too please?? - its too good an opportunity to miss out on - means I can go back and check out my recommendation again.... :-)

A quick question - I know we need to stay below the £18 level to avoid being stung with duty - could you tell me what amount that is approx in dollars? My exchange brain isn't working tonight - how long does the stuff usually take to arrive???

[wssla00]

Ill add you all :)

It is 31 dollars 60

[Skippie]

OK all bagged and ready to send :)
Keeping mine a secret though, this ok hun?

:unsure:

[wssla00]

[Skippie]

[wssla00]

You are all so organised! Great ill expect them through....but knowing my postie ill have to go and pick them up.

[honeypip]

Righty Ho!

Went to a Garden Centre at the weekend and found they now have a large craft area and some goods reduced in the sale, to boot :D

I have bought a large jar of "artistic quality glass mosaic tiles lightweight for all craft projects" in various shades of blue, so we should all get quite a few. Apparently they can be altered too, although I haven't tried this. Also found some spare bottle tops for altering that I can include.

Hope that's ok - if so, I will be bagging and posting them this week.

Getting excited now! :lol:

[NELLIS10]

Can you put me down for metal dragonflies and butterflies that you can colour with gel pens. Plus a few other goodies.:D

[Wisher]

they sound lovely AND whoopee you are in my group lol

[wssla00]

Oh me oh my there are some lovelly things coming up..:)

[Lynne W]

was thinking of maybe some playing cards and stuff to alter them with. Does this sound ok? (Only thinking, mind, could easily change my mind if I something else good!! :D)

[wssla00]

That sounds really lovelly :)

[wssla00]

I got a great parcel for group 1 from Alison Lee! :) I have to pick up some parcels from the post so maybe some will be for this!

[NELLIS10]

Sarah I'll be posting mine tomorrow. Can you update mine to show I'll also be sending a CD to alter for everyone.:D

[wssla00]

[wssla00]

[wssla00]

[Poet Crafty]

It's the Newbie one again just back from London town. How much is postage btw?

:rolleyes:

[NELLIS10]

Sent my goodies to you today :D

[honeypip]

Have posted mione today :D

[Phoenix Tears]

Will be posting off tomorrow, I've had here ready for ages but what with work and other stuff, it went right out of my mind, but with any luck you should have it by Friday!

[wssla00]

Its looking around the £1-£1.50 mark depending on your gruop!

Got some yummy things again in today :) Im back so any queries ill be back as usual from today :)

[wssla00]

Group 3 is only six people so if you just want to make up six bags that will be great :)

[Wisher]

oh flip!! I just posted nine bags for group three! Sarah could you share the stuff in the three extra bags into the others if you know what I mean.

oh and btw - these are VERY unusual embellies lol - I have had lots of ideas what to do with them, when you get them you will see what i mean lol!

[wssla00]

Lol yeah not a prob! :) Got some lovelly stuff from Karina from group 3 today :)

[NELLIS10]

Did you get mine yet?:wacko:

[wssla00]

not yet but im sure itll arrive tomorrow. Im in till about two tomorrow so i can make sure im in for the postie

[NELLIS10]

It's quite a heavy parcel so I hope it arrives OK? :(

[wssla00]

I recieved a parcel from Just Gilly today but i still havent recieved yours natalie... i wouldnt worry yet though... my postie is a lazy man and he takes a few days to get round to posting things. If i havent recieved it on monday then i will chase itup with the postie. :)

[NELLIS10]

Ok! :d

[leeann21]

right sarah i know you have mine as you got eh page kit but i was a dork and didnt put an envelope with postage, i appologise and will send it on :)

[wssla00]

Lol not a prob dont worry tho. :)

[wssla00]

recieved some more yummy embelies today :) Group 1 is getting VERY heavy lol. Group 2 i lighter but that is because good things come in small packages i would say :) Group 3 is getting full too :) Every time something new comes in i just get all excited

[AJH]

Hi there

Just to let you know that I sent my goodies to you yesterday so hope they get to you soon!

xx

[wssla00]

Im sure they will.... my postie must think iim a shoppahollic... well i am but... lol

[wssla00]

OK shamelessly promoting my other swap.... an ATC kit swap. Here (http://www.ukscrappers.co.uk/boards/showthread.php?t=102290)
Perfect for your new embellies coming out soon :)

[NELLIS10]

have you still not got mine? i'm panicking now!!:(

[Wisher]

group 3 stash sent today - this is seriously unusual stash lol - there is a prize for the most original idea using this stash that I have sent...answers to the gallery please...lol (not that I want to scraplift at all !! lol)

- seriously though there is a prize available if you want to accept the challenge! I have a 2 other judges who are not from group three!

[wssla00]

they havent yet... Its ok though dont worry if they dont come check with the PO and if they cant help then ill add some cd alterers stuff to it

[wssla00]

LOL im up for the challenge

[NELLIS10]

If they still haven't come by the end of the week I'll try and get more stuff off to you, but there won't be as much as I sent. There was a CD to alter, bottletops, Pegs, Dragonflies, Butterflies and a few other bits and pieces. Really disappointed it's gone walkabout!:(

[Lesley136]

Sorry folks - I had to go away unexpectedly and have just got back. I was going to send all the same thing - but is everyone sending a mixture- not sure if I'm doing this right. Will go and get some more bits so they are different if thats whats meant to happen.
Lesley

[Wisher]

lesley - I urge you to just send what you have - it is part of the fun - I am really enjoying the surprise element of this swap

[Phoenix Tears]

Don't worry, I sent all the same, unusual brads, and I thought you would want more that one so each person gets about 6 I think! Its so hard to do it for a fiver though, mine went up to six but could easily have gone twice as high!

[Sky-blue-pink]

Hiya - it's been a frantic couple of weeks the last two of term and I've been away for a few days so I've not been on here much.
Having recommended the scottish site I ended up being lured into ordering from the multicoloured one, however I then got an email on the 19-3-06 to say it would be 7-10 days before my order was posted - 16days later - nothing - I've just emailed them to chase them up.
I think I'll probably do an order from the scottish site plus a couple of bits I've collected along the way but just to let you know I haven't forgotten...

[wssla00]

Not a prob guys. I understand the probs of the prices ive spend way over the fiver on each groups im in but its cool :) and the probs of posties. Honestly natalie its not a prob. Ill chase it up this week but im at work till friday and i can do it then

[wssla00]

Hi guys i was wondering if you cold let me know if you had posted yuor stuff and what post it went and if poss if you remember what day im not chasing you dont worry lol. its just i want to chase up my lazy postman who hasnt delivered post in the last few days so i need to make sure im actually expecting things lol

[wssla00]

Also Gill did you send a second package for group three or was it all in the first package you sent... sorry im being really dozy tonight lol or else ill have to hit my postie over the head lol. Homocide life on the streets lol

[toothfairytrace]

not yet....but it's the 17th isn't it??

I'll need to send mine in a box I think!!

[wssla00]

lol its quite late on anyways. Its just my postman likes to sleep instead of posting. Like my jury service for example. Grrrr so i just want to make sure hes not putting them on the van and then driving them back again

[Sky-blue-pink]

I haven't posted yet as at least half my stuff is now on the way from the states - but it should arrive in the next few days and will be forwarded as soon as poss!!

[wssla00]

Not a prob :) recieved yours today gill, but the postie had opened it. Mayb hes a secret scrapper.... All seems to be there though so thats good.

[NELLIS10]

Mine has defintely gone walkabout then...that is such a pain in the ****!!!!:(

Will try and get something off to you this weekend. Can you send me your address again?

[leeann21]

right just to let you know i will not be on muc hfor the next week as alll our belongings are moving tomorrow and we have to stay in a caravan for a week i can however use my mates puter but not often

[wssla00]

Ok :) enjoy your move

[wssla00]

Natalie guess what came....? Your embellishment stuff!!! lol :) at least it arrived saftely

[Fluv]

Mine will be in the post to you today, hope its not too obscure for you ladies, it reminded me of holidays, lazing by the pool......Oops wrong swap im not in this one Blond moment

[NELLIS10]

Oh thank goodness...did you like it?:( :huh: You don't sound so sure!:wacko:

[wssla00]

Oh no it was lovelly :D Sorry love ive not been well today with my asthma and my mind is on my breathing :(. They are beautiful! Just meant that i was glad the postman finally got their finger our :) I was jealous of the DF brads they are SOOOO Nice and im not in that group :( Aah well your group stuff is growing big now :) its all so exciting!!!

[Sky-blue-pink]

I had my package through the post from the american place that has nothing to do with my name what so ever - I'm amassing stuff in a bag and it'll probably be ready to go out tomorrow at the latest!! There's also some other 'stuff' that I've hoarded along the way - hope it's all ok!!

Hope you're feeling much better soon Sarah.

[wssla00]

Thanks Marie
I have just had a PM from a newbie looking to make this her first swap. Does anyone in group 3 have any problems with that? I allready have some stuff through but i can add to it in group 3 and divide the stuff over 7 is that ok?

[Wisher]

graet - i sent enough for 10 anyway lol!!

[Sky-blue-pink]

No probs - I can soon put in a few more bits!!

[wssla00]

Good Good :) I knew i could count on ya :) Anyways more for you too :)

[wssla00]

right ignore that she has pulled out

[Poet Crafty]

I haven't forgotten about you guys - I am just waiting a final delivery and will post it tomorrow !

Fingers and toes crossed !

Poetcrafty

[Sky-blue-pink]

I just missed getting your addy Sarah (probably by seconds) before I had to get off to the PO with some other stuff - but I will get my parcel off first thing tomorrow - it weighs a ton and has the odd very unusual bit in it too!

[wssla00]

Great :) Recieved a package from moonstone this morning :) I was very cheeky and got the harry potter one for me in my group.

I was looking through the packets and i must say that everything that has come through is absolutely wonderful you are all such great swapees.

I do however have to let you know that some people arent sending enough postage. There is so much stuff coming through in each group that one stamp wont cover it. So all people left to send it i would say it will cost at least a quid postage. Any extra and i will put back in your packs.

I just wanted to share a few suprises and teases for you as well... i wont say what groups they are from there a a mixture from all groups just to keep you guessing but here are a few tasters of what are in the packs

Altered slidemounts
embossing rulers
big dominoes
clock parts
altered cds
dragonfly brads to colour in
guitar picks
tea cards
fish
fabric embellishments
pants
playing cards
charms
bottle caps
erasers
board books
stickers
to name a few things that have come through

[wssla00]

ive been quite criptic with a few things havent i? :) You will love it though check the page before for a few important bits of info AND a few clues for what is coming through

[Moonstone]

Glad the parcel got o you ok :) I'm so looking forward to this swap, definately my favourite swap so far!

Michelle

[wssla00]

Good Good :) Hmm its all so yummy

[NELLIS10]

I want to know who sent in the pants...and are they in my size!!! :lol: :wub: :wacko:

[wssla00]

They are teeny tiny the borrowers size pants they are well good :lol:

[honeypip]

Ooooh, getting excited about this now! :D

[wssla00]

:lol: I think most of it of mine is going on ATC's

[NELLIS10]

I wonder if I can slim into the pants I'm getting...:lol: :wacko:

[Sky-blue-pink]

My stuff went off first class today so you should get it tomorrow! I'm getting excited about the goodies that will be on their way back - Perhaps we should have a group ATC swap to show what we've done with all the amazing stash!!! lol

[wssla00]

yup that sounds good :D

[wssla00]

Hi guys i havent heard from a few swappees which may slow down the completion date for the swap im not worried about the people who have said they are posting this week. it's just the people i havent heard from... sorry guys. I will chase them up later in the week just to check everythings ok if i havent heard from them so it can be completed on time. Sorry for the delay guys i will let you know asap when i have any more info

[wssla00]

Recieved sky blue pinks yummy stuff today :D

[Sky-blue-pink]

Glad you like it! I'd like to see what people are going to do with one or two of the bits - In the end I split what I'd got between the 16 folks in groups 1 and 3 so some people might end up with two lots of more or less the same thing - (tho' there are some differences) Hope that's ok!!

[Lesley136]

Sent mine off today.
Lesley

[wssla00]

Oh the stuff was great :D

Thanks lesley :D I cant wait to see!

[wssla00]

Let me know when you recieve it. Im going to do your feedback ratings this evening

[toothfairytrace]

Sarah - I hope I included enough to cover postage!? I was unsure - as my box was a fair bit to post but I should think the return package will be lighter?!

[wssla00]

righty ho you should have a rating now. :)

[wssla00]

Dont worry i cant remember lolol it went out today and i just put on the stamps and added any extra to anyone who needed it. Its not a prob so you should all get it tomorrow lemme know

[toothfairytrace]

I included £4 so I hope that covered it - will send you more stamps if not - don't want you to be short!

[Sky-blue-pink]

I've just had a lovely time sorting through the parcels that arrived this am, thanks for some fab goodies - I'm going to be having lots of fun - I can tell!!

Could the person who sent the 'Shell' playing card tell me where you got it from please - I'd love a whole set!!

Anyone who had received a thickish plain white suare thing - it's a special stamping surface that takes ink really well and can also be scratched into!!

Thanks again Sarah for a great swap!

[Lesley136]

Just back from a few days away and got my parcel!!! It was so exciting looking through all the lovely goodies, thanks for the wonderful swap.

I sent a shell playing card but it was a one off - I got a mixture of 10 playing cards and that was one of them. I'll find the site later and PM you, maybe they have more of the same to send.
