I got my envelop the other day, but have been a little busy so I couldn't post right away. Thank you so much to my secret sister! I love my stuff. I received:


~Two sheets of the 3-d stickers...they are christmas and have mickey on each and then pluto is on one sheet while donald is tangled in lights on the other...very adorable and I haven't scrapped Christmas in disney yet so they are totally usable!

~winnie the pooh christmas stickers by sandy lion

~some silver mickey heads that are swirly in the middle...not sure what they are...but they are some kind of embellishment I am assuming(sorry these kind of embellies are foreign to me, but I really do love them...I am going to do some research and see what I can do with them

~a few mickey head brads...at least I think thats what they are

Thanks so much to my secret sister. I really enjoyed my envelope!

I need to send a big thank you out to my secret sister. I received a great envelope the other day full of goodies. I can't wait to get a chance to use some of my new stuff. I'll try to get on later and post all I got but it included tons of baby stickers and disney stuff. You went well above and beyond.

Thanks.

Oh my poor little bit. My Eldest just received an EXPRESS package. He's not here to open it. Little bit wants to open it for his brother. Wouldn't it be a nice thing to do? Have it all ready opened for Eldest to see when he gets home.

It's killing me too. 4:00 will never get here.


We know it is from his SS because Eldest's name and address is also used as the return address. My postman thought that was funny. It is his count week and he thought we must really like him to help his count out that way.

I can tell you what he got now.
Lots of fun paper
Oodles of ribbon (he had fun pulling them out one by one)
Soccer Stickers
Military Stickers
This awesome military helicopter that needs to be assembled so it is really 3-d-he loves this best
Assortment of brads
Assortment of chipboard shapes
and some chipboard Ws.

He says thank you. He has plans for the elastic ribbon, and I'm afraid it isn't scrap related

 

[StitchIsOurHero]

YAY!!!!! I got my awesome package today!!!

My package was very intriguing!! My address was the return as well as the delivery address. . .and it was typed! Very sneaky, SS!!

Inside the package, I found the coolest note. . .very nice note from my SS who said all kinds of nice stuff, and then let me know that she was being very sneaky with the mailing so NOT to try to track it!! Who, me?!!? So, not only did I love my package, but this makes it extra fun!!

Here's what I got:

K & Company big flowers--They are so bright and beautiful! I love them!
A Pooh pen--It's with my stuff now to take to WDW in a little over 2 weeks. . .I'll write my trip report notes with it!!
A set of sticky notes that are "B"--LOVE THEM! They will go on my desk at school. . .I'm a sticky note fiend!
An adorable green notepad and pen with a "B" on them--they are going in my purse! I know I will use them often!
A set of really awesome hot pink heart brads--they're pink, they're hearts, they're brads. . .does it get any better?!?
A set of Pooh gems stickers--love that bear!!
A set of Inspirables words that say things like "Surprise" and "Celebrate"--they are beautiful!
A rub-on that says "tub time"--can't wait to use that in SIOLB's album!!
And the COOLEST binder clips EVER--they are bright yellow lovestruc ) with pretty decorative blue flowers on them. One will be holding together my trip stuff, and the rest will be put to oh so many uses! I love them!

It was a yuckfest day at work, and this made the whole day spectacular!! Thank you, SS, for all of my goodies, and for the wonderful note!!

We received packages here this week! (and sent some out too!)

DD called me at work and was screaming happy! Her package was padded with easter grass ~ very creative packaging idea!
She got a bunch of eggs with Jolly Ranchers in them. Snowman stickers, holly and poinsettia stickers, jumbo flowers and brads, a Halloween brag book, Disney Princess stickers and Dora stickers. Thanks so much Secret Scrapper ~ she loves everything!

I received a dachshund magnet (DD tried to steal it from me but we put it on the fridge to 'share', lol) and a dachshund sticky pad ~ I think DD was distracted by the magnet and doesn't know I have theses. shhhhhh
I also got a pack of flower brads, some Ariel themes alphabet stickers, velum envelopes, grrovy gell stickers, a really neat tag with a beaded wire dragonfly on it, some Mickey stickers and my favorite ~ Eeyore!
Also a great pack of Jolee's easter stickers ~ the egg hunt is tomorrow (though it's sounds like it will have to be rescheduled due to rain). But I should be ab;e to use them soon! Thank you so much Secret Sister!!!

 

[MazdaUK]

What is Easter grass?

 

[ddavis860]

It's the grass that you put in the bottom of the baskets

 

[marlynnp]

shredded cellophane.... darn! I should have used it in YOUR package!

 

[MazdaUK]

Nope, that hasn't reached us yet as an Easter thing. We've only had the multi-packs for egg hunts for a couple of years. But now most kids get some sort of sattelite TV (which is mostly US cartoon shows) we'll be having 4th July and Thanksgiving any day now

 

[mommy2mrb]

Sorry I didn't post this earlier, but has been a crazy week........Thank you SS for the very cute stuff! LOVE IT!!

I got:

Easter embellishments from Soft Spoken
Princess & dance epoxy stickers from Creative Imaginations
Dance stickers from Creative Imaginations

and two Ghiradelli carmel squares that were eaten right up, like I said it has been a crazy week and the sugar was badly needed.

Thanks again!!
