Imagine this........all the addicted ladies together talking about SU and how we had not received our free goodies for doing the surveys for SU......

DING DONG the doorbell goes......a lady had a SU box for me to sign......I thought it was a duplicate order from Jenny then opened the box......was puzzled......then the realisation dawned on me....MY FREEBIES....and how great that we were all together to see and share the excitement LOL....

Cardstock loads of, 2 spot inkpads, 12 yes tweleve marker pens !!, 3" diddy envelopes and cards, a whole reel of gorgeous pink organza ribbon, a butterfly punch, goldy yellow twine, magic mesh and a stamp set....BUD BASICS

WOW amazing all this FREE for answering 4 surveys !!!

I also got my order from Jenny so I am in SU heaven.....typical that I am going out tonight so cannot play just yet !!!

Hope all you other girlies got your goodies to please please share if they are different LOL

Christmas 2007

PHEW...my cards are ALL done and written and all sent apart from the people who I will be seeing in the next week or 2........
My friends *The Addicted Ladies* and I make cards each week when we get together.....and I have been keeping them all for reference LOL.... so over the last 2 years I have accumulated over 100 cards so I decided ( not lightly ) that this would be the year I would use them :) as I need the space that they occupied......I have pics on the PC so its not like they are lost to me forever....and time moves along...your thoughts and ideas and likes change so.......there you go....they have been put to good use.......
