作者: claichan    時間: 2010-2-5 10:34     標題: Card making

Are you gals, the card maker, interested in coming out once and maybe we could make some cards together?  We could rent a room at a community centre, share the rental cost (probably $5 or less) bring our tools in to share among us, exchange some new techniques we learn....  
作者: fibbi    時間: 2010-2-5 10:46

That's a good idea, but not this month for me....I am going to HK la..
For tools... I guess I should bring out my big plastic carton box! haha
作者: claichan    時間: 2010-2-5 11:02

I was looking at Killarney community centre... the smalles room (max 30 ppl, which is really good already) is approx. $20 per hr.

Rainy is going out of town too!  I'm away next week, so ha~ definitely can't be Feb then.  March?

We can welcome those who are interested in making cards with us but have not at all started yet.  I have prepare some make-and-takes....
作者: Rainy    時間: 2010-2-5 12:03

Finally to have my lunch break now! ><

It's a good idea, claichan. I will be away...... to HK (like fibbi) this month and yeah~ Hopefully I can find some good stuff in there .. akkaka

Are you guys ok with weekends though?  I'm working 9-5 every day and don't drive
作者: Rainy    時間: 2010-2-5 14:04

I have the weirdest schedule ever! I work every weekend.... never free on weekend =P
作者: smt    時間: 2010-2-5 17:46

I've no experience in card-making... But after seeing all ur creations I wanna try try.
May I join???
作者: IcySugar    時間: 2010-2-5 22:30

mi 2 mi 2 ... can I join... can I join? haha... xP
作者: fibbi    時間: 2010-2-6 01:07

Of course more people more happy la!

I get off pretty late though...like 7-ish...
Hm...
作者: 草莓妹妹    時間: 2010-2-6 02:27

I would love to join.  But this month can't.  Can we do it in March?
Usually, I'm fine on Fridays evenings or Sat.  But NOT Sunday!
作者: claichan    時間: 2010-2-6 13:55

Yeah more people more fun!  Maybe for those who are new to card making and don't have any supplies/materials to share can bring some snacks or drinks (maybe, not necessary)

Hm...Can't do weekday nights...
I was thinking 2nd or 3rd Sat morning of March.  Rainy, you are working all weekends?

Fibbi, do you mean 7-ish weekdays or weekends?
作者: claichan    時間: 2010-2-6 14:16

I'm researching on location too.  
Let's vote:
Killarney?
Richmond Cambie Community Ctr?
Minoru (library)?
They all have meeting rooms that have 30 sitting space with tables.  approx. $20 each hr.
Or I could try and cal:
Burnaby Eileen Dailly?
Oakridge library?

Please let me know at least 2 locations you can go so it would be easier for me to find a location. Or if you can go to any of the above, that would even be better

Maybe you can try calling Burnaby Main Public Library (the one near Metro).  That might be a good and big place.
作者: claichan    時間: 2010-2-16 17:05

I'm back from holiday but I guess few are gone these 2 weeks!
I'll ask Burnaby metro, 草莓妹妹, but are the other locations ok for you?  I don't mind metrotown but some probably live in Richmond and prefer somewhere closer to them, that's why I proposed Killarney, in the middle of Bby and Richmond....

Since few are gone, I'm propose last Saturday morning of March (Mar 27) so we could finalize this date when they are back.
作者: zuesel    時間: 2010-2-17 12:14

If you girls like, i can book my community room for you for free. So there's no time limite. I live in burnaby.
set a date and let me know. but i not experienced so I won't participate but just watch you girls.

Zuesel, could you please check if you can book the availability of the room?

Gals, please reply to this if you are interested and state whether you are available on both days, one of the days, or none of the days.....

Hope that works.
作者: fibbi    時間: 2010-2-26 12:34

作者: claichan    時間: 2010-3-26 09:35

I'm thinking probably I won't bring too much stuff.
since there are not many of us, maybe I could instead bring some of my cards, some inspiring magazines, and chat a bit, oh and snacks!
Coz  I don't think I can make cards without bringing tons of my materials unless I have time tonight to prepar and pre-cut paper.....
But since I promised,  I'll bring my cuttlebug anyway.
作者: fibbi    時間: 2010-3-26 09:53

Probably some of you can bring some markers? I want to see how the daiso marker work...

I'll bring Cuttlebug embossing folder, nastabilities die cut, copic paper, paper trimmer, perfect pearl, flower soft, some card/paper stock, stamp, but if you could bring your own ink pad ('coz I don't know what colour you want), then we can at least make some card to go?
作者: claichan    時間: 2010-3-26 11:12

I'll definitely bring my stampin' up marker set.  I need to learn from you on how to use them.

作者: Rainy    時間: 2010-3-26 11:28

作者: claichan    時間: 2010-3-26 11:50

作者: 草莓妹妹    時間: 2010-3-26 12:05

It was nice to meet you all today!  I had FUN!  Thanks for Claichan, our organizer, Zuesel the host (I luv ur place!), Fibbi our snack sponsor.  haha^^  I've learned lots of new techniques from all of you.  Especially, with the spellbinders!  Hehe....

When I got home after the gathering, I played with the spellbinders right away!  After few scars on plate B, I didn't worried about it anymore.  But it's weird that I don't hear those crackling sounds anymore....  WERID!

Next time or next round, Zuesel should teach us how to make those amazing miniature things and 攝影技術.  Your pics looks so pretty!

Or maybe we should also have a craft gathering once a month!

    I tried it to colour the on the stamp image. Pretty good to me. But blending-wise, I still like my copics. Depending on what you want to use for la.
作者: claichan    時間: 2010-3-29 11:25

We were already talking about next meeting!
I had an idea while going home, maybe we set a theme for next meeting and we'll actually make some cards...
we had such a great nice chat and discovered that our ideas are so different from each other!
We suggested next meeting to be in May (last Sat of May, maybe) and you gals could come to my place (up to 6ppl including myself).
