Secret Sister (for the holidays)- Sucessfully Completed!

[MazdaUK]

I'd get a sub to a magazine, or else an idea book (I like the Becky Higgens Creative Sketches books as they are not over-fancy) to give her some ideas, plus some flowers (primas) and brads as they are great for adding something to a page without taking it over Very important when you're new! Or make some element packs like the colour swaps - also very good for stopping all your early pages from looking the same

Thank you to my Secret Sister - my package from ACOT just made my day!!!!!!

I got a bunch of Bo Bunny "Love Bandits" (oh my gosh, those raccoons are so darn cute!), as well as chalk inks (in gorgeous colors I've never seen, I might add) and Laundry Line paper and ribbons (my favorite!)



Thank you soooooo much - this was awesome!

I love it when surprises arrive Now where's that postman.......

I'll be sure to mail my December package early so my SS gets it in December

 

[MinnieGarden]

Thank you Secret Sister! My package arrived today filled with tons of goodies - a super cute frog punch, ribbon, brads, primas, stickers, an 8x8 DCWV stack, snowmen, and bath bombs! I'm sure I probably forgot something, but everything was amazing! A great end to a Monday.

What's the earliest we can send out our December gifts so as to not reveal too early? What do you think, Rebecca?

I think any time after Thanksgiving would be fine- I would like to have all the 1st round packages confirmed before we send out the 2nd. Right now I need confirmation from either they sender or sendee on 3 of the packages. Either by pming me they sent the package and when or a post here that the package was recieved. I know there are a couple still in transit but 3 packages I am unsure about. I planed on pming the senders today but got caught having to pass oin some sad news to church members instead (a past pastor passed away last night). Soi I will work on checking on things tomorrow.

As far as I know mine hasn't arrived (I'm at work at the moment) - not sure if my SS knew about the time lag.

I'll send my second package tomorrow - it takes a good week or more (I don't want to leave it to after Thanksgiving as that's too close to the last Christmas mail date and the queues will be murder) So my SS may get it early - or maybe not

That is fine! I know yours takes more time. I also know yours is on the way- your secret sister didn't realize the lag time but you should have it before our Thanksgiving(according to delivery information). I also know they are going to try and take that into account for your next package.

Dear Secret Sisiter~ WOW!!
Thank you for the AWESOME green package that arrived just a couple of hours ago!
I recieved 5 packages of different types of brads
2 types of felt fusion
alpha fabric tabs which will look really cute on GS pages
a tube of fun green fibers
the prettiest package of Christmas brads
and a Hobby Lobby magazine. We are supposed to be getting one close by us but the only one we have now is an hour away!
Thank you very much Secret Sister!

 

[MazdaUK]

Ooooh! I'm all excited now! I thought it had arrived when I got home but it was magazines (I'd been waiting for Scrapbook trends to arrive and they've resent the 2 issues I should have had).

If my SS ends with a Thanksgiving instead of December package I apologise in advance! But I'd hate for you to get it AFTER Christmas - you'll see why

 

[DisneyIsTerrific]

My package was waiting for me when I got home from work today!!!! Thank you Secret Sister!!!! It was a wonderful package and just made my day. I love the colors of Core-dinations you gave me and you are correct in that I rarely buy "girl" colors since I have a boy, but I do love them and will definitely use them for me!!!! So, I got a bunch of core-dinations papers, lots and lots of stickers (princess, fall, scrapping, drama, etc.) a bunch of fibers and ribbons, and a chipboard castle book. I love it all!!!!! Thank you!!!

 

[MazdaUK]

My SS came up trumps with a fantastic package from ACOT including big decorated brads, a tin of chipbaord pieces, glitter brads, chalk inks and other bits perfect for boy pages. Thank you so much!!

And I'm postal with my reveal

 

[rlovew]

Awesome that means the first round is compeltely recieved. Feel free to send your reveal packages as you have them ready!
