'No frills' holiday card exchange signup - closed!

It's that time again, the card exchange signup! We're keeping it 'no frills' this year - just a simple card for everyone :D As lovely as extras can be they can also be very time-consuming, and I know this is a busy time of year for everyone!

(maybe we could do a 'with frills' card exchange around Valentine's Day?! anyway...)

Everyone who signs up sends a card to everyone, and in previous years we've had about 10-12ish participants, so be prepared to send that many cards! If you're still living with your parents, please check with them to make sure they're okay with other people getting your address.

If you'd like to sign up, please send me a PM with the subject Card exchange and your mailing address! Please be sure to include your name as well, unless you'd like cards to be addressed to your Sam forum username.

I'll leave this open for a week and then I'll send everyone a PM with everyone's address :D

Signups are closed and I'll be sending out everyone's addresses at some point today :D

EDIT: PMs have gone out, please let me know if I missed anyone!

Sending my cards out tomorrow. :D

They are the ones I didn't send out in 2013 (plus a few new ones for the people that didn't sign up in 2013). I hope that no one minds. I feel bad that I didn't get them sent out then. :(

Ok I sent mine out today instead of yesterday. We had a big storm hit us and we weren't able to go anywhere yesterday.

Please ignore my horrible handwriting. :oops:

Glad you enjoyed the card, RikkuGirl! Also belated Happy Birthday! ^^

And don't worry about the horrible handwriting, ElvenArcher, mine's pretty well down there too. <.<

Kinda felt bad for Tierasa because she got the worst of said handwriting. :P

*has stuck all the cards up around my workspace, feels the warm and fuzzies whenever I look at them* <3
I love that this gave me an excuse to break out the glitter pens. >3> Everything is better with glitter, yupyup.
Also, you guys all have amazing handwriting compared to mine. |D

I think Retta was the only one who wrote in all of our cards but Rythe's. So only Rythe got to see my handwriting besides my signature. No one's was really bad. Retta's can be, so no issues here. ^^

I received cards from tierasa and Operetta and Rythe before we left, so the rest should be there when we go home - gives me something to look forward to :D

Oh good. Some have arrived safely. I was just a little worried. We(not me personally but people t in utah) have been having a lot of trouble with people stealing mail for the past couple of months. So I was a little paranoid.

When we got back from our trip there was a pile of cards waiting for me, what a nice treat to come home to :D Although we put the Christmas decorations away the next day, I'm going to have my cards up my office but a bit still.. and by 'a bit' I mean 'until next Christmas or forever' XD Thank you, everyone!

Mine left disastrously late, I'm so sorry. TAT


Getting ready to fly to Germany has been madness, I'm afraid. >> I have greatly enjoyed all the wonderful cards, they're up with my reindeer collection still. :3 (I keep my reindeer collection up until mid-February).
