Spring Secret Sister swap Received Thread

[lovely scrapper]

Thank you SP for that BIG envelope FULL of wonderful goodies that you sent!

I hope that our hostess here has filled you in on what's been going on in my life right now-needless to say, your envelope of goodies brought some much needed sunshine when I needed it most.

Thank you,
Debbie

Dear my SS:
Thank you for the great package from Bargin.
Dh called and asked me how I had ordered something from on-line, because he had not seen the charge on the credit card. I told him I did not know what he was talking about- he must be losing his mind- I have not ordered anything off line since I joined the BAN.

So, I was shocked when I got home and he was right- I had a package- It could not have come on a better day! Work has been hard because it is close to Spring Break and the darlings are crazy!

So, when I opened I saw:

a bag of Primas- they are all sorted and put away, ready to be used next week when I'm on spring break!
lots of patterend paper
lime green and orange flower eyelets- love them!
Easter die cuts (2- full pages) - love the colors- they will look outstanding in our family book
a Fall rub-on
Christmas stickers
a Santa metal word- it will look great in my Christmas album
and
a birthday photo memory kit- in just the purfect colors for DD's last birthday

Thanks again for an awesome package...
S

OMG I love my secret sister!! I just got an amazing package, I swear it felt like a years worth of holiday's all rolled into one day!



First and so exciting...I got three packets of pre-made scrapbook pages, they each have two 12x12 pages that I just add pictures to, this is so up my alley...One is called Prima Ballerina, perfect for my dancing DD. The second one is for School, which again is perfect as I take most of pictures at school related events!!! The last is Halloween, again the holiday that I take the most pictures of. These are awesome!!!

But wait, it gets better...I got sugar coated adhesive chipboard letters in lime green (my DD's twirl team colors)!
*Metal Picture Plates for family and home!
*Heidi Grace Metal Words (in lime green)!
*Vinyl Letters (Lime Green)!
*Chipboard shapes (lime green)
*Checked green ribbon!!
*Tennis Stickers
*School Stickers!
*Fun in the Sun Pool stickers!
*Pooh Stickers!
*Tinkerbell Stickers!
*Mickey and MInnie Tennis Stickers!
*Three titles - Dark and Devious, Wishes Do Come True (Jiminy Cricket) and Think Happy thoughts (Tinkerbell)!

I received my package on April 1. No April Fool's for me! In it were:

Ghiradelli Milk Chocolate Squares (yummy! I shared with DH)

Two packages of MM eyelets in Watercolor Brite and Watercolor Muted

A Barnes & Noble Gift Card

A cat bookmark. I love the bookmark!! I think it is my favorite thing in the whole package!! It says "Happy is the home with at least one cat." Italian proverb. Since we have two cats, our home is doubly happy!

It reminds me of a cross stitch piece that I did many years ago that said "A home without a cat may be a perfect home, perhaps, but how can it prove it's title?"

Also, I want to let my SS know that I did receive her first package as well. I just found this thread today, so I didn't know to post here about it. It contained many things that I can use for my new granddaughter's scrapbook including:

Assorted pink and green brads
Lilac eyelets
5 sheets of baby stickers
A baby picture frame sticker
MM Mini blossoms
Winnie the Pooh and friends paper cut outs

Thanks SS!!

Thank you Secret Sister!!!!!!! I received a WONDERFUL package from you!

I absolutely LOVE the pink CutterBee scissors. These are my favorite scissors, pink is my favorite color, and since they are pink, DH and DS will NOT use them so these might not go astray!!!!!!!!!!

The Elvis stickers will be wonderful for my pages of DS's play where he was an Elvis Impersonator. The 5 packages of K&Company Boy Scout/Eagle Scout stickers/embellishments/sayings will be perfect for his Eagle Scout pages. The M Designs tropic colored square mini brads and the childhood colored circle brads will be used everywhere!!!!! And, I love notepads. I'm always buying cute ones even though I have bunches and I just love the 2 Mickey Mouse ones you sent!!!!!!!!

Thank you so much for everything!!!!!!!! You did a great job picking things out for me, it's all perfect!

I received an envelope from my Secret sister today and I really love my stuff!!!

I received:

~Large pink buttons by Ka Jinker...never heard of them, but I love them!
~ Disney Chipboard Medley...I've never used chipboard can I just attach these with glue dots or scrapbook glue? They are super cute and I love them!
~ Pink and red flowers with brads (i just started dabbling with these so this was right up my alley...good job!) they are by heidi grace designs
~ Pink book platez by terese collins...again not sure how these work, but I'm going to do a little research. They have brads so I'm assuming I just use those to attach
~ I got two packs of disney stencils One has the fab five and the other is tinkerbelle
~ sheer frame combo by making memories ~very cute!
~real magic disney sticker embellishments by remininisce

~ Finally Some disney stickers. There are a few mickey heads, two hands and two M's.

Thanks so much to my secret sister. I love my stuff and no worries...I am in an experimenting phase so even the stuff I'm not sure how it works I'll find out and experiment. You did a great job..I love it all! I still haven't started my disney book yet so at least I know I'll have some stuff to get me started. Hehe.
