So did I! My mum dropped some mail off early this morning and there were three cards.

Thank you Karen and Paul, Amy and Sara. The cards and pics were just gorgeous.

Amy, how did you get the 3D on the front of your card? It's so clever :)

[Felicia's Mom]

Thank you Adore My Dogs.:) I love your card.:D

[kohala]

Thank you, Adoremydogs - what a sweet card!!

Last night we got some spirit finally and I got all the cards up all around the bookcase!! It looks soooooo festive, Dadcat is cheering up and shedding his Grinch suit!! Of course, a good report from the doc helped, along with a quick chat with his Dad who has been moved up to Northern Cal.
It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas!!

Now if I could only figure out how to put a Cheery Christmas-y signature in - :rolleyes:

It's called Crystal Laquer. It's a liquid you put on by hand (REAL fun with 40 cards lol) and it dries clear like that. I found it at a craft fair, and I believe there is a website you can order it from.

Aww Amy, thanks for the time and care you put into our cards. I absolutely loved it!!! Its so pretty and creative :)

[krazyaboutkatz]

I received 2 more cards on Christmas Eve. Thank you Delidog (Nicole) for the cute card. I can't believe that you were able to find a card that had 3 cats on it that look very similar to my cats. I just love it. :D Thank you Crikit (Tracy G.) for the cute card with the adorable lab puppies on it. I love this one too. :D I'd also like to thank everyone again who has sent me a snail mail card or an e-card. I love them all. :D I hope that everyone has had a great Christmas and will have an even better New Year. :cool:

[kohala]

I received three cards today ( I didn't get to check the mail Christmas Eve): Crikit, Deli-dog and Mollie&Mike. Thank you, it was so fun getting cards on Christmas Day!!

Hope yours was full of fun and love!

[Cataholic]

I wasn't good, and didn't post each and every time I got a card. So, this is a general thank you.

It meant so much to me to have all my PT friends surrounding me at the holidays! I read each and every card many times over, and got several comments about all the cards!!! It was one of the most fun parts of the holiday season...rushing to the box to open up all the envelopes, and then enjoying the pictures are words. What a totally cool way to celebrate!!!! I am already looking forward to next year! Let's get the list going now~

Here is to a Happy, Healthy, and Humane New Year.

In Peace,
Johanna

[Miss Meow]

That's so true Johanna. One of my Christmas highlights has been getting a phone call from mum: "You've got some mail here" and I'd drive over asap to see if I received any cards! Everybody put so much effort into their cards and they're treasured by our household :)

[kohala]

Your card arived today!! Thank you, it's so cute!! See, I told you cards after Christmas keep the holidays alive!!! One question - how do you keep the catties away from the ratties?

[krazyaboutkatz]

I received 3 more cards today. They are from Wolflady (Karen), Luckies4me (Cassandra), and Sammi (Mollie). Karen, thank you for the funny card and wonderful letter. The pic of Marius is too cute. :) Cassandra, thanks for the cute card that you made. Mollie, thanks for the cute cat card. The cat reminds me of Sunny. Also thanks for the cute pic of your dogs. :)

[delidog]

Yes, I guess that I am also guilty of not updating each time I got a card!!!! but you all know who you are!!!!
I thank you all....you all made the Holidays more special for John, myself,the Deli and Joey......
Sorry, that mine were a little tardy...I work retail...and have had not a moment to myself...going into X-mas I was working some days 7a.m. till midnight...very tough hours....so once again, I apologize if some are late...But I wanted to make sure that everyone got one!!!!!

Happy Holidays!!!!!!
Nicole

[jenluckenbach]

They don't touch the ratties, they are scared of them. :rolleyes: :p

The cats will sleep with the big fellas, but they won't go near the small kittens, they are terrified. They would never even consider harming my ratties, cuz they know they would be in trouble. So they get along really well. Did you not see the picture I posted awhile back of River and Bandit? Those two were in love with eachother. I guess my cats are just weird. Mystic sleeps with the racoons and is friends with the quirrels too. They groom eachother, it's very weird but so cool!:D

When the cats were kittens, they were around rats, hamsters, degus, chinchillas...pretty much every type of small edible animal, lol. So now they see them as friends and not snacks.:)

[luckies4me]

I am sooooooo sorry that my cards are messy and not much was written in them, please except my apology!:( :o

I was in such a hurry to get them up on Saturday and my hand was killing me! It hurt so bad. I would have wrote them sooner but I had absolutely no time to myself to do it! I promise they will look much better next year. Please forgive me. It is hard because I have Dylan here all day and Dan worked til 9 PM every day last week, including the weekends. I still hope you enjoyed the cards though, as it did take me awhile for the design.

By the way, the little cute mammal in the bow......that's my hedgehog Speedy, lol. Not a RAT! Just thought I would clarify, lol. :p


I will update this list later with which cards I have already recieved. :)

[anna_66]

Thank you Nicole (Delidog) and Karen (wolflady), they were both great:D

I know why her hand hurts.....She wrote all 29 pet names on the envelope with the address!!!!! and the envelope was not super-sized or anything, just normal sized. Thewy all thank you.
I also got from Tracy, Smudgde and WInter. Was that Smudge's own signature?
And Nicloe, Delilah and Joey, Now, I can't play favorites, but that card was the greatest thing I've ever seen. The back of the cats on the back of the card, very great.
Thank you.
And I know that I have missed a couple, and I apologize, but I am working on a bad cold right now and can't find the energy to double check who's is who's. Sorry.

[Miss Meow]

I got cards from Karen T and Laurie B yesterday. Thank you! I am amazed at our postal service; they delivered on new year's day :)

[aly]

Another big opps on my part!!!!!!!!!! I was just counting the leftover pictures I have and I have too many :o :o :o :o :o I double checked every card to be sure there were pictures but I guess I'm just out of my mind. Most of you should have them but there may be one or two skipped. So if you don't have pics of the dogs and one of the cat in my cards, just let me know and I'll send them!!!!! (If you want them that is).

Also, a lucky 4 of you will see your cards were ripped open and taped back shut :o I got paranoid and had to make sure there were pics in there. Hehe. I'm not a flake I promise. The sickness is making me go out of my mind.

Well I sent out the cards this past week, so they should be arriving this coming week. SORRY AGAIN! I feel SO bad.
