2009 Valentine's Day Card Exchange

It had puffins on it! Of course I love it. :slight_smile:

Glad you liked it. I picked an assortment of nifty local stuff :slight_smile:

Wow, jsgoddess, just … wow. Maybe you should change your name to foamgoddess?

And thanks also to tarragon918 – I’ve stuck the changable rose/ladybug to my monitor.

:smiley: Stand back and watch me scissor!

More!

Thank you annie xmas, pixilated, tarragon918, and freckafree! Kittehs, philosophy, love-joy-and peace - exactly right for me!

freckafree: Amazing! I love the whole idea and I may never open it! I don’t want to blow the surprise so I won’t elaborate.

More photos to come - my office computer doesn’t want to play nice - I’ll do it at home.

annie xmas, jali, sarai, thank you so much! The cards are really cute and now I’m sort of embarrassed at my lame attempt. I’ll do better next year!

Today’s haul: cards and mementos from: freckafree (I, too, am reluctant to open it), Worm, phall, Pandora and tarragon. It’s cool to get something from Iceland (no pun intended, really); how did you know that I’d love to see the Northern Lights someday. And your poetry was…poetic? I always feel less than clever when I start receiving Valentines. Mine are primarily colorful.

Thanks everyone!!! I’ll take pics over the weekend.

I hope you’ll take a picture, because I forgot to before I mailed them.

And I got yours today. It was, well…sweet! Thank you!

gardentraveler, glad you liked it! (And I hope your postal delivery person was entertained, as well.)

The Northern Lights are the most awesome thing evah’ when they’re really shining, so I just applied that logic to Valentines Day :slight_smile:

And thanks for complementing my poetic poetry… :wink:

WormTheRed’s card got shipped off today. I needed a prototype for pricing the rest of the postage. :smiley:

The rest of you… well, sorry, but I qualified the phrasing on the cards to reflect the fact that they’ll arrive late. Out tomorrow!

And, to those who helped out with the Secret Mission, we’ve been busted. Thank you!

Wooo hooo! A haul of cards today, from jali, twickster, Susie Derkins, Annie X-mas and jsgoddess! Thank you all so much!! And jsgoddess has a special talent for glitter glue (bless her heart!), feathers and spangles! :smiley:

Whee!!! I got my first three today! I am now officially covered in glitter and heart confetti.

Thank you KnitWit, jsgoddess and jali. The Doper crew knows no bounds in the creativity department.

The e-cards are coming in, thank you all! And to freckafree, you have no idea what you started when you led me to that site. I loved it and sent out President’s Day cards to everyone I could think of!

I had the same reaction when I went there the first time, too, thanks to a couple of Dopers who posted the link in the e-card site thread a while back.

Hi All,
I sent mine on Thursday so they should be there at some point.
So far I have cards from Pandora and Annie X-Mas which makes my desk look a lot brighter and happier than usual! Thanks so much :slight_smile:

Got two more today! Thanks, Pandora and tarragon!

Two more today, form rocking chair and gardentraveler, yay! thanks!

I got mine from jali, Pandora, and Avarie537! Thanks, guys! My kids are so envious that I’m getting mail from faraway places!

More from Avarie537 and gardentraveler! Thanks, guys, they are so cute! And my husband is wondering who all these people are who are sending me Valentines.

I can take a picture of mine, if you want.

I should really have taken this week off to be home when the mail was delivered. I’m sure our carrier thinks it’s odd that I get more Valentines than Christmas cards.
And, well, the atypical ones are sure to have turned his head.

Today brought cards from avarie, Susie Derkins, Pixilated, and freespritisi. That bookmark is awesome, by the way, freespiritisi!

Thanks everyone for all the smiles!
