[LuckyLabonte]

I got my package from Colleen also! thank you soooo much! they are beautiful! <not sure if we are telling what we got yet or not?>
Funny story about my package..
I had ordered a gift for dh for our anniversary, and it was late coming. I told him if a box came for me to go ahead and open it, because it was his anniversary gift. He called me at work acting really strange and thanking me for his "gift" (which was really my swap package). I couldnt believe he was being so strange <ahem rude!> since it (his actual present) was what he ASKED for. THen i figured out it must have been my swap box he opened instead. So while he loved the items, he wasn't as thrilled about them as I was! :rotfl2:
Colleen you did a great job! and my dd confiscated the postcard right away.

thanks so much!:grouphug:

She made me a beautiful necklace. It is mostly dark green with other coordinating beads. The center is a pewter leaf. What wonderful workmanship. Thank you. I will think of Tink whenever I wear it!!!

[KSDTink]

I'm glad you like it. Making beaded jewelry like that is a little hobby of mine. I made cellphone charms/zipper pulls for all the ladies in our DIS cruise group this last Christmas, it was fun.

[mickeyfan2]

How is everybody doing?

[mickeyfan2]

I got my exchange from Lisa (LuckyLabonte). She made made me a beautiful and functional lime green bag with my initial and name on it. Around the top is some matching fiber.

I forgot to add I also got a cute pink with black polka dot key chain. Do you think I should put DH's keys on it.

[Meriweather]

A floral/butterfly bag and a black and white key chain.

the material used to do your initial was mickey heads, but they didn't show up too well on that size font. :mad:

[kandeebunny]

[mickeyfan2]

Yeah another masterpiece has been sent.


Now there are only two more to be sent.

[mickeyfan2]

I PMed the last three exchanges to see if the last two were sent and the other arrived.

[mickeyfan2]

I just picked up my held mail and there was my exchange. I got a beautiful Pooh and Friends bag made by Jessica (suggies08). Thank you.

[Pooh67_68]

Sounds like this one will wrap soon. I don't think there is mail delivery on the 28th.

[kandeebunny]

I have not recieved yet, and am wondering if the one I sent has been recieved.

[mickeyfan2]

I have not recieved yet, and am wondering if the one I sent has been recieved.

I sent a PM to both your sender and receiver on 5/22. I have never her back from either. I will now sent them both an email. I hope I don't have to resort to a phone call.

[mickeyfan2]

I have not recieved yet, and am wondering if the one I sent has been recieved.

I just got an email from the person who sent your package out. It was mailed 4 days before the due date. I have asked her to email me the DC to see if we can locate the item. I hope it arrives soon.

BTW do you have the DC for the item that you sent? Did is show that it arrived?

I don't think I sent it with DC though I will double check my wallet. I mailed it right before relocating for the summer. If needed I will remake and resend it's not a problem!

No need to resent unless the person gets back to me that it did not arrive.

[kandeebunny]

still nothing here.

[mickeyfan2]

still nothing here.

I will check into this tonight and see about getting it resent to you.

[Meriweather]

Is this completed?
