I finally got my cards out yesterday..... phew!

I decided to hang all of my Christmas cards from my beary special friends in my studio around the door frame to my mohair closet. You all are protecting my stash :crackup: ...... and making my room very cheerful. I gave the bears their own christmas tree this year, here in my studio too.... so it's feeling very festive!

Hi All,

I finally got my cards sent out today! My apologies if they do not arrive before Christmas, especially to those outside the USA. I had a few problems with them and the post office. I had to repackage them as the post office didn't like the way they were packaged the first time.

I have received some lovely cards from Joan Lemmon (Lemmon Bears), Melissa Toohey (Honeythorpe Bears), Melanie Clark (Melbears) and Ellen Liss (Ellifolks). Thank you all for the extra special items that were enclosed in the cards.

This is my first TT swap and it was very enjoyable.

Hugs and Merry Christmas.

I don't know what to say....I have received so many beautiful cards from all of you.....I am so touched I really don't know what to say which is so unusual for me!  I wished that I would have joined in on the card swap, and my wish came true  bear_happy

I didn't even realise that anything was going on until my niece came over and began collecting the mail, each day nearly all the mail was for me and I had to install her as my little secretary to open up my cards lol, then we started competing to see if I could get as many as she did from her class mates lol.  something wasn't right lol...I usually get around 8 cards tops haha

Anyway, a few days ago I realised something fishy may be going on, so I put on my detective gear, trench coat, dark glasses and hat, big boots and gloves and magnifying glass...and interrogated Dilu  bear_tongue  tehe.   Di and Ellen thank you so much for being so thoughtful...it has been so much fun and so so good for my spirits...when I found out I told my family and my sister was in tears...we all love you all!!!  :hug:  bear_wub  :hug:  I feel so special and loved...

Thank you all again.....I know this Christmas is going to be a joy no matter what, I really feel happy  bear_grin  mwah 3574a49fd52c15a4ea27d94a909cb6da.gif
