Ideas for card craft beginner

Here's what i think we should do:

It's a bit similar to round robin actually. I could send a envelope to someone. They would take maybe 3 things from the envelope, then put 3 things in for other people. Then it could be passed on from person to person, and that way we could all try using different materials.

Why dont we all participate and try something new?~!

Like that idea.............that way we all get something that maybe we haven't got that we can play with.
The only other thing I can think of is doing 'swaps' where once a month, (just an example) we swap bits and pieces we've got that we maybe don't need anymore and pass them on to someone else...............does that sound fair ?
Must admit I like the 'round robin' idea though.

I think the swaps are good, but the round robin way, everyone can have a choice of items. I have loaaddds of stuff i dont need and i would be more than happy to give it to the needy:)

It does sound a good idea the more I think about it. See what everyone else thinks.
