Facebook groups

Another quick post... I mentioned that I belong to a FB group (actually more than one) and I thought I might tell you a little more in case you are interested in joining some fun ladies online!  These are both closed groups and you must request to join, but so well worth it! The admins are fabulous and actually belong to both groups.

One is Scrapbook Friends and More. This is a site that is filled with fun and inspiration. They have a monthly swap and exchange and also challenges. They have mini classes like Quilling and they have game night on Tuesday which is always a ton of fun. They just had a traveling crop in May in Tennessee and people went from all over the US. I was not able to go because of finances but I am definitely hoping to go next year. They have not picked a spot yet, but they try to pick a place as central as possible. The members are so much fun and always posting such inspirational projects. This is the group I am making a wind chime for (a different one from the one I posted below).... have never made a wind chime but that is one of the great things - they like to inspire us to make new things :) They also have sales posted from the various craft stores, tutorials, discussions about tools and such, just a ton of good things to help you be a better crafter and they are FUN!

The other is Creative Swappers. This is just what it sounds like... lots of fun swaps! A lot of the same people belong to both groups and we have way too much fun :) We have a "color swap" every month where the color is chosen and then you sign up for what you want to make in that color. I have made 24 pink stick pins for June and 26 red, white and blue stick pins for July. You don't have to make the same thing every month, I just happened to be in a stick pin mode so that is what I signed up for :) We also recently swapped vintage tags/cards - I can't wait to get mine in the mail! Lots of fun swaps going on in that group. This group is newer than SFM, but they are working on having a game night also. They post several new swaps each month and you always have plenty of time to finish them.

So go join, but only if you want to have TONS of fun sitting in front of you computer :)

Hugs and Blessings,

Becky
