There were a couple cards waiting for me tonight too. :D
T & P had to check out Tracey's in particular.
Peanut had to scan from one end

To the other

And she paused on each one. :D
Tubby, on the other hand, focused on Cirrus.

Then did such a quick scan I couldn't get a pic of it, and went right back to Cirrus. :D

Sorry if I "gave it away" for anybody because I know half the fun of this is the surprise of seeing how the cards are done, but I just couldn't resist posting T & P's reactions. :D
Got another 5! Zippy_Kat, Ally Cat's Mommy, Slick, WolfChan and Neko1.
Thanks you guys!
I'm glad to hear that everyone including the furkids have liked my cards so far.:)
I received 2 more cards today from Barbara and Zippykat. Thanks so much for the beautiful cards.:)
Incase you guys didn't see this is dog general.. My pups loved the kitty smells... especially Simba. He was jumping up to sniff the card. :p http://www.imagestation.com/picture/...a/fa5fff2c.jpg
Oh yeah another two today - many thanks to Clara - beautiful card and Rosemary with sweet Hayley and Mandy xxx
Lynne
Ahem, I was wondering how long it would take before my "secret" got out!!! A fellow PT'er very kindly agreed to mail my cards for me from within the US (I couriered them all to her in 1 envelope).Quote:

Her kindness in agreeing to do this made it possible for me to participate in the swop, as postage from here costs a FORTUNE!!
All your cards to me will be forwarded from my courier service in NY. (Unfortunately I am going back to South Africa very soon for Christmas, so I probably won't get my cards 'till January 2nd - but hey - it will be like having Christmas TWICE :)
Thanks again to my secret helper;) :D
5 more again yesterday!!!!
Barbara--I noticed yours were postmarked Chicago--did you have a "helper" too? Beautiful card!!
Amy--Nebo's pawprint is awesome, and I love the pic on the front of the card!!! Did everyone get a beagle sticker or was that for me because of Abbey;)
Tonya--beautiful card--thanks so much!!!
Cathy--I love the little elf on the front of the card--so cute!!!
and Tracey, oh Tracey--I opened the card in the car (had to stop and get the mail on my way to work), and my husband says "just what we need--more hair!!!!" What a great personal touch!!!!
Thanks so much everyone!!!!
My envelopes had smelly stickers on them--maybe that's what is so intriguing!!!!
I HATE ALL OF YOU!!
I sent out some cards yesterday and felt SOOOOOO
inadequate.......
I keep getting spectacular cards and pics!!!!
I just hand wrote all of mine.....
Next year I am going to hire a monk to do the job....
;)
Actually, Emily, I got a white cat sticker and a GR sticker from Amy! :)
Mine went out yesterday.
Today I got Amy and Ralph's, Tom and Katz, and Julie's.
Thank you for the little 'extra' Julie, its beautiful!
I just love getting the cards. I wonder what our mail man thinks, all of a sudden 50 extra cards in our box that haven't been there in years past :D
We have gotten 18 now. As I drove in today I noticed the mail man filling the boxes, I'll wait for him to leave till I go check again. It is the high light of my day, THE MAIL IS HERE !!!!

Copied from my post on Zippy-Kats thread:
"We tied the knot!
I got my address to Zippy and Nomilynn, so I guess you all know I'm in again. Sorry for not posting to this thread sooner - actually, I just found it! I did post something somewhwere a month or two ago asking about it. I worked soooooooooo much OT this year I was not on the web much.
BUT- we just got in around 4 am this morning from my first two week vacation in over ten years! While we were up in Idaho, we got married! As Dadcat told the family there, after 16 years I guess we're pretty committed! And you know what? It does change the relationship. We both noticed something just a little different. Maybe it's the legality. I think it's the affirmation f how much we truly love each other. I don't know and it doesn't matter. I'm very happy to be his wife.
So again, my apologies for such a late post, and to those of you who get your cards a little late. They will be going out this week, to all of you wonderful PT pals. I guess many of you don't "know" me since I've been off the page for sooooo long.
BTW - Grasshopper put up with her stay at the Holiday Pet Hotel while we were gone (it's a really nice place in Encinitas, CA - the cats have beautiful "rooms" on all the walls of two pretty living rooms) but when I brought her home this morning, she let me know she prefers home! Old ladies, old cats, we like our homes. And now, after our trip, I am definitely looking forward to our retirement home in Idaho. It's so beautiful there. "
Now I'm going to read through this thread, but my eyes are a little road weary so I'll be back later!
And you can count on seeing your cards soon! Last year even the overseas ones got there in a little over a week!
Oh, yes, and I'll carry on the tradition as Grasshopper still has lots of fur to sprinkle on your cards, like she did last year!
Love to all, Ko, Dadcat, and Grasshopper
Congratulations Kohala and Dadcat!!!
We got 3 more cards today deom Edwina's Sec, Ally Cat's Mommy and Barbara's. Thak you all, lots of kitty pictures :)
I recieved 3 cards today. Neko1, Zippy Cat and Ally Cat's Mommy.
Thank you all very much.:D
Duke liked KrazyAboutKatz' card as well. Although he seemed to prefer Storm's. He really did sniff Storm's the most, I just didn't get it in a pic. I guess that's because there was more of it.

And is this a look of pleasure or what? I really don't know:)
http://www.boomspeed.com/dukedogsmom/1205036.jpg
I am loving all these cards! Next year, I plan on having cards instead of decorated typing paper. I kind of feel bad after all the nice cards I've received. But, it was all I could do this time. Now, I know what to expect!
Here is how I am starting to hang the cards. But... it won't hold all 50, this is 20, 19 PT's and 1 from my friend:D

And Emily, I put the beagle sticker on because of Abbey. :) I bought a few packages of stickers and I tried to put ones that matched somewhat up with people's pets...there wasn't a variety of breeds though so some just got cute puppies and kittens. :D
Tracey (KrazyaboutKatz), Angus loved Storm's hair:D He was trying to lick it! The card is adorable!
Cathy (Wolfchan), I would like to know a place where I could find a big enough stocking to fit him in:p

Oh No - does that mean I missed someone ??? DAMN. Gonna have to re-check the list when I get home tonight ........
but .......... I would like to say I did it on purpose :D (but I can't. Must have been having a BLONDE moment!!! )
Michelle, it's not just you ... I just posted your card this morning and saw that I'd put an AIRMAIL sticker on it <blush>. I tried to scribble over it with blue pen, but it now looks an envelope written by an idiot who's tried to scribble over an AIRMAIL sticker ... :o
Miss Meow,
Yesssssssss, Well,.......... OK?
I would like to say I did that too, to you and IttyBittyKitty ......... but I noticed in time and was able to remove the AIRMAIL sticker without resorting to BLUE PEN!
You're welcome! :)Quote:
