I don't know about you, but I am loving some of the new paper lines out there! No, I don't need paper, but I would like an excuse to buy some The due date is three months out on this to be sure there is time for new paper to arrive. Post if issues So, what is the swap? A page kit! What is in a page kit? 1) journal item (at least 2" x 2") 2) photo mat - with a spot for a 4x6 photo or 2 smaller photo mats 3) 3 Deco Squares 4) Choice item (see sample area of site or some ideas are borders, bookmarks, license plates and more!) 5) Embellishment baggie - minimum requirements: 5 buttons or regular size brads, 1 yard of fiber/ribbon, a choice item(s) and one buy and bag type item from the paper line What do you think? Max group size 8 (to keep the buy and bag item cost down). Lines to be something released at this winter CHA : some ideas are below at the link - then you can click and see the announcements of lines - pick what you like and have some fun. www.scrapbookupdate.com/cha-mega-show-2014-sneak-peeks/I will put a few pics in the next reply - just having computer slow down issues now? ? Participants 1) KMG 2) Ceceparsley 3) Kathi 4) Scraprageous

Lucinda what do you mean by - ' one buy and bag type item from the paper line'?
I was looking at Botanical Tea and there are no' bag type' items

Buy and bag just means buy one of the matching embellishments - chipboard shapes, flowers, brads, etc.. If there aren't any - then buy a few sheets of the paper that is often divided into sections (wallet size sayings and such) and cut out to give each person a few make sense? Karen - yes, once you decide - post your decision. I do not care if there are duplicates - I want everyone to enjoy creating No, I haven't decided yet - giving myself a few weeks to do so (ok, by February 5th)

Remember - it is ok if we all use the same line or different lines. Why the reminder? After sorting two boxes of pictures this am, I ordered the G45 Sweet Sentiments line . I have a ton of photos that this line will work perfectly with. Now that they are sorted I will be scrapping away! Not sure how you order paper, but A Cherry on Top has the 12x12 pack for $17.95 right now . Yes, I almost always get a pack plus the sheets I want.

Lucinda- since I can not really tell from the posts as to who is in and who is considering, can you list the actual signer-uppers in the first post when you know. I just want to make sure of who is getting auction funds. Thanks

Not all are, but Sweet Sentiments arrived last week from A Cherry on Top. They do have the quickest shipping I have found.

Karen, I've decided to join even though I haven't had much time to scrap. It will be good to get something done, get the creative juices flowing. As far as I can understand, we can pick our choice from the site listed. Then we order our paper and have fun when it comes in. Kathi

Kathi - you can get your paper anywhere you want - there is no set store. I just put those links to make it easier? to figure out what the new lines of paper are.
Yes, pick anyone you want, create your items and have fun! I know I am still planning on getting the Elvis line, but haven't found anyone selling it yet.

Question - i tried to find answer on the link that shows all the new lines - but the one for DCWV didn't open. Is 'Summer Magic' part of the CHA winter lines? Anyone know? I was thinking about using that one

I do not know if it is part of a CHA showing, but it appears it is new for 2014. Researching it I saw a DCWV blog where it was mentioned on 1/21/14. Not sure if it is available yet. It is not in their 2013 catalog of products.
Lucinda the ball is in your court

I thought it was new as well, so go for it! Pretty much any new paper works for this swap - not just the ones listed. That page with links - I have noticed some work well, others not so much. Another way to check - go to your favorite site (Bo Bunny, DCWV, October Afternoon, Fancy Pants, Graphic 45, etc.) and check their blogs for the new releases.
