Rak Chit-chattery

Good Afternoon Ladies-

I am so excited to get this group going...I just know that we will truly enjoy sharing and getting to know each other.

I have worked with RAK groups before but still each group has a learning curve as you meet the needs of the group. So please if you have suggestions or questions just pm or post your questions to the thread(s) provided in this forum. (this thread or the Q&A thread).

[ddobson]

I think it's a great idea!

[craftymom]

Are we just going to list things we have to RAK? or are we going to do a PIF (pay-it-forwar) or Wish RAK like did?

I've done both, and even helped at one time moderating over a forum.

[stampin-sunnychick]

For the moment...

WE are simply going to send RAK's to each other...Cards mainly...and if you wish...small things that will fit in an envie.

TFS the deets on your experience with RAK's...I may need some help later. SO, I may call upon you at a later date if you are interested.

Be patient...as we get the group acquainted and running smoothly. Once everyone has joined up and the group grows a bit...we may branch off into some other options. Just wanted to take it slow to start with.

[stampin-sunnychick]

Thanks for the support Daniela!

[heidi baldini]

i've never done this so i'm a bit clueless lol!

[craftymom]

Then are we going to do an address list?

[stampin-sunnychick]

Yes, there will be a list once everyone has a chance to sign up...I posted that I would need you to copy and send your information to me via pm. I can re-post that information here as well (in just a bit).

I will be emailing RAK Member Information to you and not publishing on this site to keep us all safe! :)

[stampin-sunnychick]

An RAK Group is one that sends out Random Acts of Kindness via snail mail. Either by sending cards or small gifts. The key is that this is done completely by random and to surprise the recipient. It's just another fun way to support and share with your creative online friends.

HTH

i've never done this so i'm a bit clueless lol!

[stampin-sunnychick]

I almost have all the information that I need for the EIS RAK Group email list...It will be in your inbox as soon as I gather the last bit of information.

Thanks for your patience! :D

[Dianna]

Thank you, Tracy, for your patience with us!

Not all of us (and I'm definately speaking about me) know what the heck we're doing. We're along for the ride and can't wait to get the wheels turning!

[debbiedee]

I'm so excited to get to work on this. This is going to be fun! Thanks Tracy for setting this up. :)

Dianna, I;m w/ you!!!:confused: you all just point me in the right direction lol!!

[stampin-sunnychick]

Hi Ladies-

I think I have finally gathered most of the information I need. Most definitely enough to get us started. I am putting the finishing touches on the Excel Sheet now. You should receive the list in your email inboxes by tomorrow am.

If you can't open it let me know and I will send it in a different format. Thanks so much!!!

P.S. I randomly chose 3 people from the list of ladies to receive the first "Happy Mail" from me...wonder who that shall be? :winking:

[Peg]

Sounds exciting. I can't wait to receive the list and send out some happy mail.

[heidi baldini]

oooo, I love getting FUN mail!!
What a fun idea Tracy!!

[ddobson]

I don't have Excel :( Word document will be fine or any other format.

[debbiedee]

Tracy, I didn't get anything in my e-mail if you sent it this morning. I can open Excel.

[Ching]

I can open excel...so send away. :) Looking forward to this. Its going to be a lot of fun.

[stampin-sunnychick]

So sorry girls...I am going to try to get this finished up tonight (*crosses fingers*)...I have only one more to add...then copy and send both formats.

This week I'm a bit MIA with VBS being immediately after work...after VBS it's pretty much about bedtime.

Please be patient if I don't have the energy to pop in tonight. Thanks so much!

[debbiedee]

no problem! I remember crashing every day after teaching Bible School when the heat is 90-100 degrees and the humidity is 200%! Ü

[stampin-sunnychick]

YEAH! It's done and emailed. Please check it for accuracy as my eyes feel like there's super glue in 'em (the contacts have got to go). Let me know if you need anything.

HAVE FUN!

[debbiedee]

[Dianna]

[Norma Kennedy]

[debbiedee]
