I am so sorry that it has taken me so long to post this!! I receive the most ADORABLE card last week from KristiK thanking me for setting up this Secret Santa group.
Thanks so much for the card Kristi!
( That is kinda funny about your daughter, I will be 23 on 12/31..)
Sorry, it's taken me so long to post a thank you - but here goes! My Secret Santa sent me the cutest card, and the most puzzling thing about it is - it's supposed to be clues to her!!!??? It has a tag, it's a pocket card, it has a buckle on it, it has embellishments on it - AHHHH - I'm not getting it!!!! I'll have to think on this some more!;) I love the card, though!!! I can't wait to try to CASE it! Thanks so much!!!!!!

I recieved a card from my Secret Santa the other day. It's a beautiful card made from a paper bag. This is the first time I've ever seen one of these, I'm going to have to try this tecnique. Thanks Secret Santa!
Thank you VERY much and God bless you to my Secret Santa for the beautiful card!! I'm sorry it took me so long to thank you -- I've had a sick family for the last week, and we are still working on recovering! But the card really made my day -- it was just the pick-me-up I needed right now!! :p
I wanted to thank my Secret Santa, too. I have received a beautiful card and a neat decorated vellum cover for a votive holder. They were very nice surprises!
P.S. I noticed the Bismarck, ND, postmark. My family is from ND originally, and I was born in the small town of Cavalier!
I want to thank my Secret Santa for the very nice card that I got in the mail today. I am going to have to get that set, I see some really cute cards made with that set. Thanks again and have a SAFE and Happy Thanksgiving.

Wanted to tell my SS thanks for the card (I didn't peek!!) I rec'd a great Leaves Awash card using very nice watercoloring this wk while we were out of town for a family funeral. Thanks, I trully needed a 'pick me up'!!! When this is all over, remind me (as I am getting old and forgetfull) to tell you abt the leaves awash roller, your inspiration and my consciencous! Kristi
came back from a 10-day vacation and found a WONDERFUL birthday card from my SS in my mailbox!!! it's so cute and beautifully stamped! thank you so much for making my day that much more special!
Well, I have you ALL beat!! lol :razz: I got a PACKET of cards from my secret santa!!! Thank you SOOOO much! They are beautiful!! Whoever you are, you must be the best out there!! I need to know how she made them!! They are like watercolored or painted, or something!! SO beautiful!! I don't want to give them away!!! She even did them in my favorite stamp set designs!! And she sent me some SU brads!!! Thank you so much. I have been showing them to everyone!! I really needed a pick me up that day & you did it!!! :smile:
It was so exciting comming home from a long hard day of "CHRISTMAS SHOPPING" and finding the most adorable card from my secret santa. I love that set. The colors and stuff that you used are great together.I have been looking at ordering that set and the punch, now after seeing the awesome card you made I will have to def need to order both. Thanks for making my day!!!!!!
I noticed you live in Austin, Texas. I was born and raised in Fort Worth, Texas and used to go to Austin alot. What a fun place.
I'm desperately wanting to choose something for the person I have that she wants/needs/loves. Unfortunately, I can't ask her directly. I'm betting others are in the same position. Would it be rude of me to ask everyone to post their wish lists? If so, please ignore my post, but if not, please do -- it would sure help me out a lot!!
I guess I'm the only one awake! Oh well..........I will post MY wish list DeeDee and maybe it will get other's to follow! Mind you this will only be a partial list because I'm a brat and my list is even too long for Santa!!
Happy Hearts on page 33
Adoring Hearts Wheel on page 81
Leaves & Swirls Wheel on page 81
Special Day BG on page 86
Delicate Dandelions on page 131
Wonderful Weaves on page 170
Weathered BG on page 176
Something else fun would be the Small Plaid Maker!
Ok there's mine! Now pipe up everyone after you have your coffee!!
I think it's a great idea to have a wish list!!! Mine is easy!;) Any kinds of embellishments - and they don't have to be SU! I love ribbons (mainly solid color ones) and brads!!! Those are my favorite embellishments, but not the only ones I use. I'm totally open to new kinds of doo dads to put on cards, so basically whatever you want - is wonderful!!!
Thanks so much to my Secret Santa - hope that helps in the hint department!!!;)

I wanted to say a big thank you to my secret santa (from Santa Ana, CA??). I received two cards from her this week - one had the coolest embellishment in it.
Both cards were wonderful and brightened my day. Both include clever sentiments dropping clues along the way. I am still; however; clueless about who my SS is!!!!

I think StampinDeedee had a great idea encouraging everyone to post their wish list. I know I would love it if the person I have would post hers. It would make it sooooo much easier to chose something special for her. So Please everyone make it easier for all of us and post your wish list!
I would like to have Best of Cluck pg 95 Farm Fever pg 105 In full bloom pg 130 Agless Adornment pg136 Elegant Greeting pg 185 Word Window punch pg 218 or any type of ribbon or embellishments
And hope my Secret Santa posts hers and give me some ideas.
In the meantime, here's mine....
Any Rich Regals cardstock and/or ink, as I only have Handsome Hunter and Night of Navy
Ribbons, brads, eyelets or any other embellishment (non SU is fine)
Easy Elegance (pg. 18 of the Winter mini)
Sweet & Sassy, pg. 137
Wonderful Words, pg. 182
Regency Romance novel(s) to help survive tax season, which is just around the corner
And, if my Santa is an SU demo, anything she thinks would help inspire/prepare me, since I'm signing up on April 17th
Thanks to all you Santas out there, and Happy Holidays!
My Secret Santa Rocks!! Sorry Santa I didn't have the thread subscriped to. My Santa has sent me 4 awesome cards and is the bestest Santa in the world.
I am going to read through all the posts later to catch up on what I have missed and get a move on.
I am a lot under the weather today so I am going to go lay down until the blahs pass me by.
Here are a few things from my wish list. But keep in mind that I am very easy to please. So, here goes. Twill Tape, Embossing Powder ( any color except Gold, Silver, White or Iridescent), Brayer, Forget-Me-Not Keeper (pg. 234), Notched Corner Punch, Farm Fever, Under the Weather, Bitty Boos Too. Okay, that's it. I hope it helps. Good luck everyone & thanks for suggesting this.....Rita
That was a great idea Deedee!!! I have filled a few direct requests for wish lists (via PM) but this will be so much easier! Thanks!!
I receive TWO things from my secret santa yesterday! One was a gorgeous card and the other is this really cool tag pocket book. The book had three recipes in it, I can't wait to try them! Thanks!!
