When you’re waiting for your swap package to be delivered and the tracker hasn’t been updated all day!
I’m primarily a papercrafter, and I didn’t make my card for this swap, so…
I’ve been stalking Canada Post pretty much constantly, but…one of my packages arrived at its destination today, so have faith!
I feel some swap anxiety about mine too, but everyone is right, we shouldn’t worry. Everyone has agreed to send a little good thing and assuming we’ve all done that, to the best of our abilities, then we’re good. If someone decides to spoil you with some extra’s that’s very generous of them and something we should enjoy, not feel guilty or anxious about.
I know I sent a lot to my partners. I had not done a swap in a long time so was very excited to send goodies. Part of that was my anxiety going ‘are you sure they’re going to like that? better add something else’.
Hey, not everyone enjoys making cards. I took great pleasure in picking one out from my card stash.
@thanate’s package arrived yesterday but I had to wait for daylight for pictures. She sent an amazing tiny rabbit plushie and some absolutely amazing miniature cameo ribbons to use with my dolls. I am over the moon with my package!
One of my dolls (who shares my obsession with rabbits) immediately stole the bunny and named him Pinkie.
The bunny is darling!
Beautiful Lati. It helps me see the scale of the bunny too.
It’s a 6x8”
That bunny is super sweet!
I have received from @fluffypants! She was an amazing swap partner and She’ll receive Monday if she hasn’t already (tracker says it was out for delivery).
Photo time!
Check out these awesome cat portraits of my little fur babies! I think I’ll mount them above their feeding station in homage to the orange cat earlier in this thread and the little shadowbox kitty!
Super sweet extras! Candy and chocolates, and the cutest little cacti stickers and note book!
This swap has been awesome! It’s my first one back, we moved sites in the middle, and it just makes me more stoked to keep swapping!
Thanks @fluffypants! I love it!
I got the most wonderful package from immaculata today. The treats were these yummy stroopwaffels, so good! And some old Toney postcards and this lovely lip balm.
But the main thing she sent was this awesome crow cross-stitch. I love it!! I love everything about it. It’s amazing.
Swooning over the rabbit and craft-studio card from @thanate! The cat portraits are super fun. And nice crow cross-stitch, too. What a great swap!
The embroidered bunny is fab-u-lous! That is an excellent concept.
Kitty paintings! And personalized too, adorbs.
That crow, wow. So special.
I love the kitty paintings and the crow cross stitch is so cool!
Averia sent the most perfect swap package! We apparently both love to be surprised, and all I can tell you when I opened the package was HOLY FLYING HIPPOGRIFF, that is amazing!!
What?! My own Ravenclaw banner to proudly display for all to admire? Yes, please!
The perfect embroidery on the banner is utterly insane. It is flawless! And amazing! Did I mention flawless? I’m in utter awe of my new Ravenclaw banner. Thank you, dear Averia! I have been studying your teensy stitches in hopes of learning something…they are truly impeccable!
Thank you for the delicious chocolate too. We ate it while playing Harry Potter Labyrinth and it must’ve been good luck because I smoked them all.
Just wow! The stitching and the entire banner is so lovely to look, er, stare at!!!
This gallery does make me appreciate the thoughtfulness and talent of everyone…such a variety of things that make us smile and feel happy…
Those painted kitties…the embroidered crow…the tiny bunny!..the boatload of blue crochet home helpers (scrubbies!!!)…the leaf mug rug…gorgeous pouches…tiny non-killable succulents…the most coveted Tardis (I want!!!)…
The zombie display is also great (huge WD fan)…
That banner is perfection!
That banner is glorious!
