Hi Sweet Secret Sister, I have been gone over the weekend (got to meet Mary Jane and when I came home today I had a Wonderful surprise package from you. You made me the cutest little book/journal I have ever seen. It will be so cute in my Scotty Camper - I'll leave it out for all to see. I haven't decided what I'm going to use it for yet - but it will be "fun" whatever it is. Loved the notecard also - you are sooo talented and special! Can't wait to "meet" you! Great big hugs, Ruth

I've been feeling so pressured doing too many swaps and I am trying hard to catch up so everyone will be happy with me. Sorry, for the delay. But, to smooth everyting out my dear secret sis has done it again. Her last gift was my favorite butterfly themed cards and stickers in a silk bag. The card she included brought me to tears. It was like she's known me all my life and had the best motavational words for me to help me keep positive to beat this cancer. It was perfect timing. Whoever, you are you'll be in my heart forever.

I love my SS. I was having an absolutely HORRIBLE day. My replacement at work came in late, making me miss my bus. So I sat at the bus stop for 40min, get home, no mail. Then the mailman came and my SS gave me these beautiful handmade bee earrings. LOVE THEM thank you SOOOOO much! The card was so sweet too!
City-bound for now! Looking for my little piece of heaven...

Hi Sue.....my SS posted once....but nothing 'bout pkg's. Will do confirmation thing w/PO next time. Hope this isn't a "hard lesson learned" for me, by not doing. Don't usually do, when sending daughter stuff....and gets w/o confirmation slip.
Thanks for checking...you are super!
Hugs & Blessings, Lori

Hi Sue, Is there anyway you can check to see if my secret sister has received her package, letters and cards. I do not see any post from my secret sister saying she received anything, nothing from her. I am only concerned as she lives outside the United States. Thanks so much.
Hugs, Debbie #1582 |

Secret Sister:
I want to let you know that after reviewing the postings I realized that I had not acknowledged receiving your package.....So cute - I put my little bird house in my sewing room. I found a spot for everything.
Thank you. I am sorry that I did not post this earlier.

OMG, OMG, what a surprise was awaiting me at the post office this morning!!!! I KNOW I have the BESTEST:) SS of all. In this large box held a beautiful ribbon bound, brown paper, Notebook that is so beautiful inside and out....AND then I pulled out this absolutely gorgeous altered box full to the brim with scrapbooking supplies. The box has sea glass from England as part of the embellishments, as well as beads, butterflies, brass lock and corners. The inside looks like the metal decorative ceilings that old buildings used to have, the entire thing is a work of art!!! I can't wait to get home and take pictures and put them on here so everyone can see it and be jealous:) LOL....just kidding...I know everyone's stuff is great and beautiful!!
THANK YOU, THANK YOU SS.... You are the BEST

Well, I got another wonderful package from my sweet SS. She sent me a pretty blue note pad with my initial on it and two of the sweetest embroidered linens,edged in crochet and embroidered in blue. These will match my bedroom perfectly! So will the two wrought iron and glass tealight holders. Little blue tealights. I so love them. Thank you to my secret sister. Looking forward to finding out who you are! Of course she sent along another beautiful card too!
