2007 Christmas/Holiday Card Swap... I got some cards!! YAY!!

[Husky_mom]

lvpets2002: I actually sent a second email with additions and corrections.... please let me know if everyone has that, if not, I should send it right away.......I´ll send you another one right now


also for people interested in having the list : I would like the list bearers to let me know if there is a problem with them having the list, some pters like Karlyb and Cataholic want the list even if they don´t get one card in return, as they are not "officially" on the list, but still would like to send some cards over, if anyone feels to send back to them let me know and I´ll provide the address....

no one in the "official" list is expected to send but if anyone wishes they may do so, but please let me know and I will make the arrangements

Cataholic: please PM me your email or email me your info so I work from there and send the infos both ways around

Isabelle, sent you a PM. Thanks again or coordinating the exchange this year!

Isabel - if you are going to handle this too then I would like the address of anyone who comes in late and asks for the list so I can send them a card in return, like Cataholic and karlyb. It might get crazy for you so if it's easier I can just PM them for the info, just let me know which is best.

It's fine with me if you give the list to them.

Thanks for handling all this for us!

I usually start doing some of them during the Thanksgiving holidays since I get 4 days off. Then I start mailing them on the following Monday. I try to mail the air mail ones first and then the ones on the East Coast next. For some reason the cards mailed to Husky_mom either took a very long time to get to her or she never recieved them. I sure hope that she'll get all of them this year. I also have all of my cards and I bought some very cute Christmas stamps today too. I'm still working on the picture of my furkids that I'll be putting inside of each card though. I always have a lot of fun doing this and I'm sure that you will too.

Does everyone include pics of their pets? Just wondering....

No, it's not a requirement but I always try to do it. I enjoy making a new picture with all of them in it every year and over the years the number of my furkids kept growing but this year it's remained stable but I'm also including my RB Pepper in the picture too. I use photoshop or else there'd be no way that I could get all 6 furkids in one picture.

I always do because I LOVE when I get pictures of other peoples furkids

I hope to get mine out this weekend - I want to get a good pic of Spencer (now that I finally broke down and bought a digital camera! )
I have been working a lot of overtime the past several months and still am, so I may be a little later than this weekend.
I will definitely send pics and a note to all!
I love doing this - perhaps I will convince Spencer to "shed" a little fur in the card like Grasshopper did one year !
Well, looks like I need more computer time - I tried and failed at submitting a pic of Mr. Meow - I'll learn eventually!

[dukedogsmom]

Has anyone possibly written down all the corrections in one place? I don't want to mess up anything. I'm starting to work on the cards now. If they have, can you pm me, please?

[cyber-sibes]

I made out all the card addresses just as they are on our list - and mailed the international cards yesterday.

The postman pointed out to me that you must place the NAME OF THE COUNTRY AS THE LAST ITEM of the address of any card going outside the U.S. to get it there. Otherwise, he said the machines will read numbers as a zip code & it will get sent somewhere in the US. Maybe that's why some of the cards never made it last year?

I just re-wrote the country names at the bottoms, & will keep my fiingers crossed they all arrive.

Now on to the domestic cards...

it may sound crazy but as I have sent everyone already with the list I´m just waiting to see if everyone has it if not then I´ll send it again, no problem....

and as for late joiners, I just need their info so I can send it to the ones that are ok..... but you can do it by PM´s.... no problem there either....

thanks for offerign the help...

Isabel, you're doing such a wonderful job organizing this year's Christmas Card Swap!!!!!!!

I've received the addresses that you have sent out ~ Thank-You so much~

I'm fine with sending a card to any "late joiners"~ I have karlyb and Cataholic's address from last years list. I've added them to this years list~
