What do you all think of this idea????

Doing a punched shape swap???? This is a chance to get some punched out shapes we haven't got already.
Each of us would punch the equiv of 4 sheets of fancy A4 paper and card, and divide it into 5 bags.
Then send to me with a stamped self addressed envelope big enough to get the return 5 bags of punchies into.
Also, include your user name in case anyone needs to know where a particular shape comes from if they want more?

We would each get 5 different bags of punched shapes.
Sizzzix, Kwikuts and other assorted die cuts can be included. All bags to be a mix of punched out shapes and or die cuts.

Put your name in this thread if you are interested.

Closing date will be 6th April, so plenty of time to get this done. Pm me for addy nearer the time.

Hi Bev, so am I???
Jinny there would be an odd bag of stuff for someone??? Maybe it could work?
Well yes I suppose so, it would be quite fun having a lucky dip bag each?????
What do you think everyone, 4 bags of punchies and a lucky dip bag. Like stickers, ribbon, and stuff (don't have to be full srips of stickers)?
Hey Jinny you made a great suggestion there :thumbup; :thumbup;
Poppy.


Anyone interested please add name to the list.
4 bags and a lucky bag. :
yip: :yip: :yip:

Just a little clarification, Poppy :wacko: Are we talking about the teeny shapes from punches or die cuts? :unsure:

Hello Joan

I like the idea of a lucky dip bag because everyone uses different things and.....like the sticky ribbon i got from my secret santa hehehehe its something i had never used before,now i have loads of it and use it a fair bit!!!
So with the ole lucky dip bag you might get something that you have never used before!! :D
Have already started putting odds and sods in a bag :rolleyes: Just cleaned out one craft box!!!!!!

Steve, any size punch will do. I have super duper sized punches down to he teeny weeny ones. I don't have sizzix or kwikuts die cuts, but some others have those.

I just thought it is a great idea to swap punched shapes we haven't got. Plus done in all kinds of fancy paper/card, it will be fun.
Also the Jinny bags will be a great surprize. (Jinny bags as in Lucky dip bags).
Will do a count of members interested in a week or so.
Thanks for joining in to all those that have , so far.

:ta: Poppy :thumbup; Sounds like a great idea, to me :) Of course, the size of bag will need to be figured out for the Jinny Bags :D Might be a bit pricey sending off a bin bag full of bits you no longer use :r :r

Oh I agree Steve, the size of the bag is only to be a small card size C6 , not full but with a few things in it. Like ribbon bits and , in my case, a few freebies from magazines I don't use, like scrapbook stickers etc. Nothing pricy , just useful to someone.

You are so lucky Lesley, the Craft Robo looks brilliant, I dont have a sissix either only punches, I like the looks of that new Xyron though, I could be tempted with that when it comes to the UK but I had better get saving.
