Christmas Card Swap R4

Received my 5th card today, from @LovelyMiss . One of her beautiful christmas trees. It is absolutely lovely as is the sentiment there in. Thank you very much. Just one more to come. They may be after the holiday, but no less appreciated!

Ok everyone,
I’ve double and tripled checked. Here is what I show as still outstanding.
I think it’s time to do resends now, it’s been 6 weeks, so probably if cards haven’t been received by now they are probably lost or damaged.

@LovelyMiss - your card hasn’t been received by @Immaculata
@LuckyDog - your card hasn’t been received by @Immaculata
@Silky_Bee - your cards haven’t been received by @geekgirl, @Tapestry , or @LovelyMiss. edit to add @AIMR

If I’ve made a mistake, let me know.

Hi, A slight correction to your last post. I received my last card from @Immaculata last week and posted it to the swap, Friday. I recovered my card from @LovelyMiss the week before, and posted to the swap 10 days ago.

I heard the news of your pet hedgehog. I very sorry to hear the result of the exam. We are all saddened. Pets are a major part of the Family, and this type of finding affect us deeply.

Maybe I worded it badly. I meant that Immaculata hasn’t received a card from you. @Immaculata can you confirm if you have / haven’t received a card from LuckyDog?

I think @Tapestry has the pet hedgehog. I have 4 cats!

I haven’t received from @Silky_Bee either. She has sent to me more than once with other mail and none of her mail is getting to me for some reason.

I am fine with not getting a card until we figure out what is happening to her mail.

@Silky_Bee Try just sending an undecorated, plain, simple envelope absolutely flat stuff inside.

No kidding! You’ve done a great job! I love all the cards!

So few people send out cards anymore! I used to have two or three doors covered in them!

I think I am going to start displaying all the handmade cards each year and just add new ones to the front door. I love seeing them all!

@geekgirl including this swap I sent around 10 cards/letters to the US since the end of October. This included 2 each to @AIMR and @Tapestry none of those have been received. I’ve sent to @Tapestry a couple of times before without issues.

Iā€˜m going to resend and hope it goes smoothly this time. If it’s ok for you I’ll do a digital art print to keep the shape of the mail as simple as possible. I will also use white print the address labels, in case my handwriting might cause an issue.

I for sure thought I had received from @LovelyMiss but I don’t see it posted in the gallery and I don’t see a picture on my phone either. The cards you sent to others look very familiar though .

I put all cards in my LC swap box this weekend so what I’ll have to do is get the box and see if it’s there or not.

that sounds fine. Hopefully all the mail issues will have been cleared up

I think I have indeed not received from @LovelyMiss ! I don’t know why I thought I did. I went through the entire box and even found a card from her and almost thought I found it, but it’s last year’s card! I don’t know why I thought I received it, but I didn’t. It was a good excuse to go through my swap box though! It feels like a treasure chest.

I noticed the return address on last year’s card and it seems you’re from a place that’s on the news all day every day even on this side of the Atlantic. Could that be the reason for the delay? If so resending might not work either.

I also had @Silky_Bee 's envelope in my hand and your handwriting is very clear, it arrived completely undamaged. I don’t understand why so many of yours didn’t arrive while mine did (eventually).

I sure hope mine will arrive at some point, too.

Did you put some air mail or priority stickers on the envelopes?

No, I used the exact same stamps on all cards, including yours.
