Fantasy Firebird is taking names for CJ group members

[fantasy firebird]

If anyone's seen and loves Reno 911, the "Grape Slushies" is a great name to go with! Hint: I suppose it only seems funny to those who know what I am talking about. Oh, well!

missed that series!! LOL

[fantasy firebird]

I like the idea of a rock bad type name - how about something like The Creative Divas??

[Lily Lemon]

That would work! Any name is fine with me! I'm more concerned with knowing who our first partner will be as the send date is already determined as in a month from tomorrow! With some of these tough themes, it might take the whole month to do two pages!

[fantasy firebird]

Heck with those themes and me to still set mine it could take a month just thinking about them LOL
ok I'll email you all the info of addresses and get the thread set up. I'll post a link here so don't panic!!

[fantasy firebird]

isisjean - I need your address and email/phone number before I can send out the addresses - please!

With regards to the rotation I am going for the easy version!! Well I find it an easy version lol.
First month you send to the person directly below your name if you are the last name on the list, panic not - you send to the 1st person!! The following month you will send to the 2nd person below you and so on!! I will set out the rotation so there is no confusion.

sounds good to me - i can start bouncing ideas around now i know what i'm doing!

btw: had a terrible day off today - our pc has died and won't boot up, so am stealing time on my daughter's macbook. my son will be sad to hear that his pc will have to come downstairs until we can sort ours out!

[Lily Lemon]

Sounds great, FF! Thanks so much for doing this! I just knew I'd get a tough theme right off the bat so I'd better get to work!

[Lily Lemon]

FF, Can you add this info to the first post for me? Thanks:

Size 8 x 8 . I, too, would love to see "handmade" elements in the pages!

[goodmorningstarshine]

Lily Lemon, I know what you mean about having a tough first page! I must now prepare myself to wax philosophical. What does it mean to me to lead a good life? Do good people do journalling, even when they don't feel philosophical? Who would have guessed there'd be journalling in a circle journal!?!

I love making handmade elements for my pages! As this is my first cj, let me ask, can our pages have chunky elements, like chunky pages? Can we hang fibers off the page? If we were to describe the overall thickness of the pages, how thick would they be?

no sooner asked than done!!

I am glad that we have a good selection of themes, they will certainly stretch all of us!! I had terrible trouble deciding what theme to set I hope I haven't gone too wild!
With regards to chunkyness I think the best thing is if each of us state our preference and I will put it onto the master requirements. Have you all considered how you intend to store the page? My other pages are all in the 8 x 8 scrapbooking plastic folders, but I know that some people prefer to either bind their pages or use rings etc. In my case you are able to fill the pages right up to the sides but if the pages are to be bound the left side would need to be left free. Have a think about this and let me know! If we get all the wants down to start with there will be less confusion later LOL

[Lily Lemon]

I think I will collect them in a scrapbook/photo album for now and decide later whether to bind them. So, backs should probably be neat and tidy with artist info. As far as chunkiness : whatever you want to do is fine with me!

[goodmorningstarshine]

I bought a bind it all. An expensive bind it all. Which I've used. Once. I need to use the very expensive bind it all.

I will be binding mine on the...hmm, I'll change it up and make it the top. Please leave the top inch or so without anything thick; I've messed up some pages trying to shove pages in! And if the backs could be pretty with scrapbook paper or the like, that would be swell.

Right girls pack up your paint, your brushes, the glue (make sure the top is on safely and securely) put those sissors safe, tidy all those bit of fibres, papers and buttons etc - we are MOVING!!! Coome and play at our new home - first there gets the choice of the rooms!!!

I'm not sure whether to store mine in an album or bind them myself - it really depends on what pages i get. If i do bind them it will be on the side like a standard book, so keep that in mind, just in case - other than that i really don't mind. looking forward to working on and receiving a varied assortment of pages.
