Ugh. So I didn't budget correctly. And I'm not going to be able to send out my package until July 5 or 6 (with the holiday on the 4th, I don't know if my check will be delayed or not). I hope my swapee isn't mad!! But keep in mind - this gives me more time to add items! XD

This project...in a way I am attached to it because of the work I've put in, but I won't be sad to see it go, because I made it for somebody else and I want it to make that person happy! :D

In other news - I received my swap gifts from msstitcher! Picture! :D

I adore everything in the package. EVERYTHING!

There's really nothing like personal, handmade gifts to cheer you up when you're feeling a bit down. Thank you so much msstitcher! <3
:yahoo: :yahoo: :yahoo: :yahoo: :yahoo: :clapping: :clapping: :clapping: :clapping: :clapping:
So glad you like them. And I am really sorry that the card is on normal paper but my cardstock was packed :banghead: I was hoping to do the layout of the card as another sampler type item but I am glad you liked it. Also Tnitnetny I see how you came to that conclusion! Lol, definately think that you and BMH are the hardest, not because you arent both lovely, but because you are both too talented! :wiz
So so glad you got it thought and that I checked because thanks to the idiots at Virgin Media we won't have the internet or a phone line for 2 weeks so can happily go on an internet holiday knowing they got to you safe and sound xxxx :wave:

*sigh* same here! I'll be sending my gifts on Monday at the very latest when I get paid as I'm down to the very last of my cash at the moment and postage to my swapees' country is upwards of $50!

We are having some fires here in Wyoming also, but nothing as bad as Colorado! My grandparents were actually evacuated for 48hrs in the southern part of Wyoming. Definitely sucks!

On a brighter note, I received my gifts! It didn't come with a note, by the persons name and me searching a bit, I think they came from CapnAllegra.

Here is what I received:

An awesome Supernatural pillow!

Hi everyone! I've been away for a long time (or so it seems to me :nod ) and I want to reassure my swapee, I didn't forget about you! I will send my package on Monday, I'm still working on my gift and it's going to take several hours of stitching still. I really hope you'll like it! :D

I'm really impressed by all the things everyone did! It's amazing! You guys are so creative, I wonder where you find all your ideas! :blush:

According to my list, it was CapnAllegra!

Lovely gifts! My sister enjoyed the Supernatural pillow :)
