Recipe Swap - OFFICIAL DETAILS

[AddictedScrapper]

If you signed up for the recipe swap here are the final details. Majority vote was for "Family Favorites" so we'll go with that for this round, we can always do another swap for deserts after this one if anyone is interested.

There are 39 participants so we will end up with 39 new recipes!!!!!!

Someone had mentioned doing the cards into 8x8 vs. 6x6 so we can do photobooks out of them so in that case make up ONE 8x8 recipe card of a family favorite recipe. In addition to sending me that one 8x8 card, resize your image and send me a 6x6 as well for those individuals who want it smaller. I will then zip all the 8x8 cards together and send them to those participants who want that size and will zip all the 6x6 cards together and send those to those who want a smaller card. This will save time for those who want a smaller card from having to resize all 38 recipes.

So, here's what to do:
*create a 8x8 single sided recipe card (design and recipe is all up to you) PLEASE PLACE YOUR NAME (and SSD username) SOMEWHERE ON THE CARD
*save it as a jpg 300 dpi, image quality 10 or higher, name your file the recipe title that you choose plus 8x8 (so for instance, "mac and cheese 8x8")
*resize your file to 6x6 and save that one as well as a jpg 300 dpi, image quality 10 or higher, name your file the recipe title plus 6x6 (so for instance, "mac and cheese 6x6")
*email both files to me NO LATER THAN OCT. 15th (I moved up the due date since we don't have to print and assemble and mail them all - if someone doesn't think they can meet this deadline please let me know).

**You can email your cards to aprilisabelle AT gmail DOT com**

Respond in this thread if you are interested in doing a second swap for holiday baked goods and if there's enough interest in a second swap I'll get it together!!

Looks great, and yes I would love a baked goods swap.

[stayawake]

I've got a chicken and dumplings recipe my family (including my little ones) LOVES (they even eat all their vegetables in this recipe - which NEVER happens!!! *LOL*)
but if someone else is doing that, I've got a pile of others too. Wow. How am I going to choose just one recipe?!

[AddictedScrapper]

Ohhh I love Chicken and Dumplings, I'd love a great recipe!!!

[digideb]

I'm still in! I'll be doing my homemade calzones!

[HeatherStokes]

GREAT! I will get started on this asap.
CAN'T WAIT - Thanks for organizing this!

[scrapperjade]

I am so excited! I might work on this today, so I make sure I don't forget, lol!

Can it be any family favorite (a dessert)?

[Angie4b1g]

Woo hoo!

I'm in for baked goods, too! I'll build an entire SSD cookbook library!

[AddictedScrapper]

Let's keep this one more "meals" than desserts and then anyone who wants to also do desserts can sign up for the "baked goods" one.

Rachel

[nesser1981]

It doesn't have to be, although it's encouraged, but it can be any products if you don't have any SSD ones that work

[brooke22]

Ok what happens if the family favourite IS baked goods? Do I do this one or the baked goods one?

[AddictedScrapper]

I was originally thinking of family favorites as being a meal, but if your only family favorite recipe is a baked good then that's ok. You can sign up for the other recipe swap in addition to this one if you have another recipe.

Im sure I can think of another Family Favourite. I wouldnt want to have the only non-meal in the bunch!

[wildblueeyez]

woot! sounds good..... I'm in on the second one too!!!

[scrapperjade]

Okay I finished mine! It was actually really hard for me to do a non-photo layout! Can I upload it here as well as email it to you, or do you want them to remain unseen?

[AddictedScrapper]

WOW you're quick Keep it a surprise, just email it to me!

[Angie4b1g]

Is your email here and I'm not seeing it? LOL

Mine is ready to go

[AddictedScrapper]

Click on my user name and then there's an option to email me through there

[Kat Stokes]

How do I add the links to my recipes in the e-mail? I don't see any way to link them...

[kscwgirl]

you have to upload them to somewhere... 4shared or box and paste the link in the email box.

[Kat Stokes]

Okay. Thanks Sara!!!!

[wildblueeyez]

Bringing this back to the front page - 'cause I forgot about it!!!

[AddictedScrapper]

Thanks for the bump LuAnn!

Kat - I didn't get yours, can you try resending it. My email is aprilisabelle AT gmail DOT com. I'll email you back as soon as I get them

[AddictedScrapper]

Just bumping as a reminder that the deadline is approaching.

Also, If you sent your cards and you never got an email back from me saying I got it then I didn't, please try resending and PM me when you do so that I can look out for it. Thanks!

[brooke22]

OOOPS... I think its safe to say I forgot! hehe
I shall do it when I get home tonight.

[brooke22]

I just emailed you my LO.

[AddictedScrapper]

Thanks Brooke!!

[Kat Stokes]

Did you get mine this time April? I think I sent it on Sunday morning.

[AddictedScrapper]

No Kat I didn't, not sure why I am not getting them from you. I check my spam mail too. Can you upload it to a file share site and PM me the link? Hopefully it will work that way. Sorry.

[ColleenSwerb]

Oy, I forgot. I need to dig up my recipe. I'll do this tonight I swear!

[Kat Stokes]

Okie dokie! I just sent them to you directly through my photobucket account. If you don't get them this time I will try to figure out how to use 4shared and upload them there.

[digideb]

I've got mine done, I just need to email ya!
