daily chat

[#1]

This is the place to just stop by and say hello. If you are new, please intoduce yourself and if you are a team of one (currently) do some encouraging self-talk!

I'm Daveda, the beach combing papermaker who loves to create team treasuries, but doesn't have any members! lol

Aloha and welcome

I did so many other things yesterday that I forgot to chat.
One of the best things about yesterday was new member and now having enough members to make full team treasuries. The link is in the treasury convo.

Have a fabulous Wednedsay.

Hi everyone!
Thank you for allowing me to be a part of your team! My name is Chanae, my sister and I have just started our own Wedding Invitation business. We hope to be able to add to someone's special day and to make it a wonderful memorable event for low costs. Hope to get to know all of you!

[TheWhatNaught]

Greetings to you Chanae, to your sister and to the rest of the All or Nothing team.

I have a question to ask, just wondering, why did you join and what do you expect to get from this team?
Sounds more like two questions! lol

Please respond even if it is IDK. I used to try to engage students in casual conversation. Sometime six years old are tongue tied with adults. Im hoping you wont be tongue tied. There are no dumb answers or wrong answers to my questions. But as with former students even, "I don't know" with shrugged shoulders is better than no anwer.

I'm wondering, as most captains do, what direction this team should take.

At this point I'm looking to all of you for a touch of guidance. Thanks!

Remember it's All or Nothing!

Most teams are based on mutual interests, regional or promotional.

Hi, Cap'n Daveda,

I joined and remain for these reasons:

You invited me. I love the support, encouragement, activity, treasuries, communication style, and explanations. You give 100%. I am content.

~May all of us, as members, support our cap and participate in this team~

(And, where have I been, some of you might ask? lol As I shared with our cap, my monitor went on the blitz. Someone was kind enough to give me one. 'I'll be back this weekend.)

I see your team, cap, as instructional and promo.

Suggestions: Pinterest,, instructional Etsy blog articles, contests.

Thank you for your comments, Jc and an official welcome to Il Corvo from SF. I have a son that lives in Mountain View, not that far from SF!

Jacqueline, thank you for being you! I appreciate your honest, knowledge base and insights.

Additional comments under new topic: favoring. A private thread.

Aloha and happy Friday!

Hi, captain, newbies and "oldies" alike, lol

My ever so wonderful monitor story, update....lol

I have been gifted with a monitor from my church. It isn't set up yet. I'll try to visit on Monday. I am thrilled!!

Oh, I guess I'm already visiting, though it's a few minutes. LOL

Good morning everyone!!

It's going to be another warm day here in Southern California...I've been having fun with an online Art Journaling Class...I may use some of my pages to make cards for my shop, or even make art journals to sell :) have a wonderful day everyone!

Blessings,
Sheila

[TheWhatNaught]

I'm a bit delayed in my daily chat, I hope no one is keeping track.

First, Sheila, I look forward to seeing your art journal cards and listings. I think it is a wonderful concept and I personally have been a journaling fan for years.

Now for the welcomes: from Florida we have Tracy and Jenna! And from California Rudy & Raudel! Welcome to All or Nothing! I am happy that you have joined our team.

We are a small team and I encourage you to start discussion threads.

So glad you joined All or Nothing!

Aloha (-.-)

[Former_Member]

Aww thanks Daveda for that lovely introduction.

Hi everyone I'm so pleased to join the team, I know I'm going to love it, because everbody's so friendly. I'm really looking forward to getting to know you all.
I'm a newbie on etsy, I joined in July and I'm busy trying to make things to fill my shop. I've been dabbling in crafting most of my life making things like greeting cards, sewing etc and only really got into making jewelry about 2 years ago. I made a lot of jewelry last year but left most of it with my friend in the UK, she sells at craft fairs. So I'm really having to start making everything from scratch again.

Best wishes to you all x

Hello everyone, and thanks for the comps Daveda!

I must go on record as saying...."I really wish I could say Aloha."

Wow, I am in incredible company in this team. Hello everyone, I love all of your work.

I am your recycling bin stalker. Sadly, the pickings have been slim in my area. I guess I am stuck with canned beer drinkers. : (

If I am not stalking recycling bins, I am using coupons to buy clearance items at local craft stores and hitting the flea markets.

I don't consider myself an artist. Had you asked me 20 years ago if I would be doing this, I would say you were crazy. I am more of a visual designer, because I can't even draw. Sooo, the crafting is a journey of learning for me.

Oh....and I tend to be verbose.

I am on a lot of treasury promoting teams. While I enjoy creating T's, I like to do at my inspiration, so I am not pro T making enforcement.

I promote my T's on FB and Pinterest and whatever team I am doing it for. So, I am not a front page seeker. I would rather promote someone else's T because the way I see it, my creation is in the T, so I should promote.

That's about it about me that you can't find in my profile etc.

I look forward to working with all of you and thank Daveda for taking on this adventure.

Cheers(instead of Aloha)
Carole

[TheWhatNaught]

Carole, thank you for this wonderful get to know you into. Personally I like verbose! I also like rhyming and humor.
