Many seem confused by the term "paper party", and others seem to feel, well, unsure as to whether their particular paper crafting specialty would be accepted by others in attendance.  Let's take a minute to clarify.  

By "paper party" I mean quite simply a party with paper, and all that makes playing with it fun!  We have scrappers, stampers, (scrampers too!), cardmakers, and even some who are into altering just about anything.  Since the term "crop" seems to define a scrapbooking party where only scrappers are present, it seems like an inappropriate term for our little events!  We get together for many reasons, here's a few reasons to love these parties...

Because:

1.      We need space!
2.      We need a break from our usual responsibilities!
3.      We love to see what others are doing, and what new ideas we can "scrap lift".
4.      A little husband bashing is good now and then!
5.      We need space, lots of space!!
6.      We need to giggle!
7.      We need to borrow each others tools!
8.      We make friends who share our passion!
9.      We love to pig out on M&M's and any other chocolate at the party!
10.     Oh yeah, we need space for our stuff!

Ok, so now that you know what you've been missing, it's time to make sure you don't miss out again!  The next Paper Party is January 11 & 12th!  Show up Friday night at 6 PM at New Sharon Baptist Church (NEW LOCATION for this party!).  Set up, eat dinner (included), shop (mini store with new arrivals for your shopping pleasure), see what your neighbors are up to (and see what ideas you can use yourself) and get started enjoying your creative time and your SPACE!  At midnight, go home, but leave everything where it is so you can come back the next morning (8 AM) to spend the day doing more of the same!  (Eating, Shopping, Talking, and Having Fun!)  Lunch, snacks, and drinks are included on Saturday.  The party lasts till 5 PM, so you have plenty of time to take it all in!
