The Twelve Days of Christmas ~ Due December 30th

[TrinaLD]

12 Days of Christmas landed with lots of love in my mailbox yesterday! I'll leave I-trader and rep shortly. I love each and every one of these cards.

[TrinaLD]

Okay, I left all of the rep points. Some of you might be confused since I mixed up a couple of names and cards and then tried to correct and said the wrong character but the correct number. I must have sunshine brain this morning. Time for a walk outside.

I will treasure these cards for a very long time!!!

[LuAnnP]

MaryAnn I’m sorry your wait has been so long! We’re getting there... only two envelopes to go.

Before I knew that all these ladies were going to volunteer to make a special set for you, while I watched and waited for your envelope to arrive, I was working on a special cross-stitch gift for you, so I’d be sure you’d get something lovely in the mail too, just like everyone else.
These inchies and bookmark will be enclosed with your returns. I hope you will love them. And I hope to be sending them very soon.

These are SO lovely! Thank you for sharing the pictures with all of us!

[Suzi]

My cards arrived today! I love them all, and I will leave my feedback as soon as I am able.

[Marie]

Thank you LuAnnP.... it was a labor of love.

Suzi, hurrah!!!! I’m so glad! They’re moving slowly but they’re moving. I’m very happy that you love your returns!

[Marie]

Nothing new here today....

[dsign49]

Mine came today and will leave pints and iTrade tomorrow. I haven't looked at them yet.

[Marie]

That’s great news dsign49. I’ll m glad they’ve made their way home.

[plumhill2001]

Yee-haw! I was getting worried, but here they are! You guys all did such a phenomenal job on these cards! I'm proud to own them! I'm off to give points! Thanks, Marie, for working so hard on this!

[Marie]

MaryAnn you have waited patiently... and way too long! I will be mailing your envelope out on Monday. There are only a few cards left to arrive and perhaps they’ll come today or tomorrow. But I’ll be mailing out to you on Monday regardless. If any arrive too late for that mailing I’ll do a second one later. I want you to get your returns!!! Squee! Fair enough?

[xstitcher]

Thank you Marie and everyone who has helped get me a set of cards. I truly appreciate it!

I am good with whatever you want to do. I don't mind waiting longer but you mailing Monday is good, too.

I wonder what has happened to all those cards? My 12 and 3 from the angels as replacements. I hope someone is enjoying them. It would be a shame for them to be long gone with no one seeing them.

[Marie]

That’s so true... I can only hope that yours are making their way back to you, and the others will arrive here soon.

[EatSleepWriteABook]

I haven't got my returns yet but am looking forward to it!

[Marie]

Hopefully soon EatSleepWriteABook! ... and everyone else too....

Also, according to Informed Delivery, your card for MaryAnn is supposed to arrive today! Just in time for her Monday mail out! yay!

[TrinaLD]

So that crazy mail is still kind of crazy. I just received returns from MN in 3 days!!! Go figure. By the way, has Xstitcher's cards shown up yet? I say yet because I believe!!

[xstitcher]

I still have hope, too, TrinaLD.

Also for the angel cards Monray28 sent for me.

Maybe the post office has something against the middle part of the USA!

[Monroy28]

Maybe you will get my cards when I get your cards.......uuggg

[Marie]

It all looks so awesome together! I’m very excited for you!!!
Do you love them????

*NOTE: I had Monroy28’s day 3 as part of my returns and have enclosed it to complete the set. When it arrives here eventually I’ll be able to replace it, and will forward the day 2 that should be included with it. But just in case it is truly lost I’ve added a day 2 of my own creation. MaryAnn you’ll get a full set all at once, except for day 12 which is already with you.

I think I’m more excited about your returns than any of the others because of all the love that went into them. This swap has been a frustrating, and beautiful experience. Squee!

PS: Special thanks to those who sent extra postage to help out with mailing, both for MaryAnn’s set and fr the original swap returns. HUGE blessing! <3 Now let’s all send travel blessings as they fly!
