Here we go!!! The person I sent to was Nikki!!!!!! Unfortunately, she got her gift late - I hope she got it! It was kind of silly sending to someone who knew who you were, but I fixed that!!! I hypnotized her in an e-mail, and she couldn't remember a thing about who her Secret Santa was!;)

I really had fun doing this! I would love to do another one, but I'm not sure if I can keep up with Secret Sister and Secret whatevers! But I guess I'd be willing to give it a go!

Thanks for hosting this, Nikki - I'm really sorry your package was late, but I hope you liked it!

I wasn't in this group, but I just wanted to say Hi, Nikki. I was your secret sister during the summer - I was the Katrina victim who caused your presents to be late then too. Hope everything is going OK for you. Have a Happy Christmas.

I sent to Bonnie - tidbits!
Happy day-before-your-Birthday! Would you please open your presents now!!?
They're not much, just a little somethings. There is actually another small pack that I'm working on for you, as well as my thank you gift to my secret santa. Whoever that may be!

I was the Secret Santa for Rita (aka Iluvcards). I had a lot of fun thinking up things I thought another stamper might like. My Secret Santa gave me some good ideas for next year, too!

Thanks, Nikki, for getting us all together!

Merry Christmas, everyone!

I will definitely do this again and I'd love to do a Secret something or another, bunny, leprechaun, groundhog, April Fooler, whatever!!!!

Thanks for all your hard work Nikki!!!!

Here it goes...

I was a Secret Santa for Danielle Stoetzer (DaniStamps) from Michigan


What your favorite part about this group was: I enjoyed all parts!!! It was fun making and sending cards and trinkets to my secret santa recipient and receiving them from my secret santa!!!

Are you guys actually interested in Secret Cupid/Bunny? If so which one? Or Both? - Interested in any secret cupid, bunny, etc going forward!

My secret santa hasn't posted that she got her package yet, so I am waiting to say who I had.

I would love to keep playing. We could switch up and do secret cupid and then swith up again for secret Easter Bunny

I was secret santa to Pinkhedgehog - Heidi. It was great fun stalking her arond the boards to get some ideas! I did have to change my location as she'd twigged about the Royal Mail and I was the only one that had England as her location! I so enjoyed the fun even though I am a long way away. I would be interested in doing this again - count me in! Thank you so much for arranging Nikki and Happy New Year to you all.

Lots of love

I can't believe I didn't see this thread until nikki posted the link in the other one! doh!

Please tell us:
Who you sent to:
jdmeeks! sorry my hints were so indecipherable! I am pretty bad at giving hints without going too far so I solved that problem this time by not giving any that made any sense! ;)

What your favorite part about this group was:I loved reading about how so many people stepped up and went above and beyond the simple guidelines set in nikki's initial post. hearing about how everyone got caught up in the spirit of the season was so wonderful! :p of course getting lovely handmade items in the mail is always a joy.

Are you guys actually interested in Secret Cupid/Bunny? If so which one? Or Both? I think it would be great fun! I need some advance prep time because I seriously ran out of it and didn't get a chance to make the scrapbook nice as I had envisioned it when I bought it. maybe just the cupid one?

thanks again to nikki for arranging and playing mother hen to this group!

I sent to waakn, Audrey Knight. She still has one surprise coming from me once my order comes in

I had a great time and would love to play secret cupid/secret bunny/secret everything.

I would be more than happy to help out with it too.

This has been so much fun. Thank you Nikki for all your hard work. It has been greatly appreciated.

My Secret Santa was SkittleBrow in CA (thanks for posting to this forum)! Thanks so much for the Secret Santa fun!! It was fun and I loved my stuff - the scrap book album, stickers, ribbon, cheetos, rottie and organizer were awesome and much appreciated! What a clever idea to hide stuff in the pockets!!!

I'd be interested in participating in any upcoming Secret events!!!

I was the "dirty" Secret Santa as my daughter was whose name I had. Thanks to Nikki I was able to pull it off! Melinda Wingham was mine and I would love to have her again! All of the stuff that she sent me was fantastic!

I was secret santa to Teresa (NurseT). She was out of town until today. Hopefully she will get her box of goodies from the post office and enjoy another round of Christmas.

Secret Cupid/Bunny would be fun.......

Who you sent to: I send to Angela (saden). She already figured out who I was because I sent her a bunch of different clues and she was a good detective. Too good!

What your favorite part about this group was: Being sneaky and trying to find out what kind of things my victim would like. LOL I just love the whole thing, giving and being surprised myself. Thanks so much for thinking of this Niki!!

Are you guys actually interested in Secret Cupid/Bunny? If so which one? Or Both? I would be happy to try both Cupid and Bunny, Uncle Sam, etc.!!

You were an awesome Santa, Teresa! I loved all of the cards and gifts. You are very talented! There's a small thank you on its way to you. I'm glad your traveling went well and you're back home now

Jennie,
It was a pleasure being your secret santa. maybe sometime in the future we'll be secret sisters or something like that. I am so glad you liked the things I sent to you. Thanks for all the kind words.
Have a Healthy and Happy New Year.

Who you sent to: I sent to Marti ( Sianne)

What your favorite part about this group was: I loved that I got to send my cards from two different places- I am from the tropical place that was the subject of my first clue but I was on vacation in NY when I sent the card!
My package was a little late because I had to order a stamp from stampin up and it took a while to arrive but Sianne was very gracious about that!


I am glad she liked everything

AAAAAAAHHHHHHH!!! I had a feeling you were sending the cards from another place!! I figured you had someone mailing them for you or something! Very clever. You surely had me stumped with the palm tree hint! I just want you to know that my little man goes to my side of the bed and stares at the box of little bones!!!! My father in law built him stairs for Christmas and I am using those to get him to use them! He now skips the stairs....waits for me to pick him up and put him in bed...gets his regular treat (just for being so cute) and then stares at yours and then eyeballs me! It's very funny.

Thanks again for everything I just loved it!

I sent to Donna (off_the_wall). I didn't do justice to the game I'm afraid but I still have a few things in my hat to send her to make up for it!!!!

I enjoyed everything about it but mostly I enjoyed buying something for someone that you KNEW they really wanted and would like!! That's always the hardest part for me and the wish lists made it easy! I wasn't too good about the extras as everyone has their own style of those but hopefully she can use everything!

Thanks again for allowing me to join in the fun!
Happy New Year!

Hi Sianne,

I wasn't too good about providing other "clues". I always seemed to be in a rush when I was headed to the post office and could never think of anything clever!

That was a great story about your dog! I sent the treats beacuse I have a dog who really enjoys it when "we" receive packages- he sticks his nose in the box as it is being opened to see if there is anything in the box for him!

Who you sent to: SheilaKyles

What your favorite part about this group was: This was a great idea. I had fun making cards that matched where we were at in the month. It was hard not knowing the person. I'd like to organize something like this for my upline/downline group.
I didn't hear anything from my SS person. So I hope she enjoyed all the cards and stuff.

Are you guys actually interested in Secret Cupid/Bunny? If so which one? Or Both?
I wouldn't do this again long distance. I got the cutest card from my SS but then nothing else.
So I am worried something serious happened to her. I've just sent a prayer her way and gone from there.
