Yes, ladies, you don't have to tell me about the thick embellies, and going over the line of demarcation for the binding!!!! Many of you transgressed, but it all worked out fine!!  My bad was: I forgot to tell you I'd be rounding the outer corners to help prevent dog-earring later... It's amazing what a Corner Chomper can cut through!!  I'm telling you though, these books are gonna knock everyone's socks off!! You ladies did SUCH a terrific job!!  Can't wait for you to see them. I really hope Susan will share it on the Blog, cause you all deserve it. If the Holiday one is even half this good, it will be stunning!! I just want to get the first one bound and mailed before the next pages arrive. Seriously, the vanity in my guest bathroom is covered with boxes of pages and covers!  I'm afraid I'll get them mixed up if I have both of them in the house at the same time! Gail |

I will, Cat, just as soon as I get one together and figure out the postage. I think we'll be able to use the same $ for the Holiday one as well, unless some of you ladies are sending in tons of pages!! Gail |

Yes, I broke the rules, too. I had good intentions...I swear. But, you know, when you get on a roll, and the creative juices start flowing, and you get excited, and you need just one more thing to make it perfect, and then one more thing...well, you know...  Glad it all worked out, Gail. I will try to do better on the holiday pages. ;D (Well, just as soon as I get started...hehehe.) Christy |

YAY!!! They're all bound and ready to be mailed. If I do say so myself, we did a wonderful job - it's a beautiful book I think we'll all treasure and use!! Sorry the binding took a bit longer than I anticipated... Should hit the post office on Monday. Can't wait to get started on the Holiday version!  Gail |

Gail - don't forget to let us know how much we all owe you for postage/packaging, and binding supplies. Maybe we should all just order gift certificates - that would drive Dani bonkers probably huh??? 11 different gift cert codes??!! LOL Can't wait to see them - I'm dieting until they arrive!!!! |

I'll give you all PMs with your shipping charges later today... You don't owe anything for the binding - it just took 1/2 of a strip - less than 50 cents, so consider it part of my contribution to the book, ladies!! Gail |

Cat, you're so sweet!! It's my pleasure to do this! Ladies, shipping is as follows: Barbara - already paid Cindy - $11 (sorry hon, that Smash Book is heavy!) Everyone else: $7.83 If it's easier for you, you can do PayPal to my husband's account: sksuttonMD@cox.net Or send payment with your Holiday pages if you're participating in the next one... Whatever works for you! Thanks for participating!! The last few should go out this afternoon.. to you all! Gail |

I did the Paypal payment, too. It's just easier! Thanks again for doing this, Gail. I can't wait to see the books! I am sending you a big lime-green velvet lined shoebox - full of pennies and nickels. I might even part with a couple of euros and loonies I have! I figure it WAY more exciting than boring ol' PayPal!!! I mean think of the cute piles of coins you can make!!! LOL! |

Gail, I got my package today. *OH*MY*STARS*!!! This book is simply incredible. I just love all the thoughtful details. Each person's page was so different and as I turned the pages, I just kept saying, "0hhhh!" Such beautiful work Divas!

Okay, now I'm really resenting the fact that California is so darn far away from Virginia! You Divas will be cooking away, while I am still stalking my delivery guy!  |

Chocolate? Did someone say CHOCOLATE? |

some of my embellies weren't real flat either 
I'm afraid I'll get them mixed up if I have both of them in the house at the same time! Gail
