Special Event Pictures from the 6th Anniversary Birthday Swap!

Jul 31, 2010

    1. I didn't expect so many people to get their presents so early (and to be opening them!). Please post a few pictures into this thread when you get your gifts to thank your generous gift-er. :chocoberry
       
    2. Swap DoA Birthday gift received from PoeticSoul


      Yesterday, my Mum went to the post office to take a parcel.
      I was not allowed to open it yesterday just because it was too late and my mum want me to sleep.
      So this morning, I wake up my mum and I open the parcel
      There is a beautiful pink paper I put around me .. but my mum said to me that I had to check more carefull inside the box because : paper is just paper !
      I discover beautiful handmade sleepwear with red color (my favorite color) and with asiatic fabric !
      wow !!!! I hadn't sleepwear till now : I'm soooo happy
      [​IMG]

      Don't you think that its fits me perfectly ????

      [​IMG]

      Inside the box there is also a beautiful kimono together with wonderful pillows !!
      from now .... I will make beautiful dreams I'm sure !!

    3. wooow those looks so beautyful on her ! :)
       
    4. She looks dashing. Great job on the kimono, it looks real neat and professional. :O
       
    5. I confirm that everything is just perfect !
      Hama sleep all the day with her kimono on her new pillows !
       
    6. Aww so pretty!
       
    7. I love that outfit. It's real nice~!
       
    8. I'm so happy that Hama likes her new sleepwear. She looks so lovely in it!:)
       
    9. That's so cute and the extra pillows so convenient!
       
    10. I can tell he's excited.....

      Gideon received his lovely swap present this week. Azurielle sent this wonderful black velvet cape for him. It's lined in a smooth and silky silver fabric - total luxury!

      [​IMG]

      It was a neat coincidence that Gideon had recently been dressed in a new Edwardian costume - and as fate would have it, the colors coordinated splendidly. The cape is the perfect accessory!

      [​IMG]

      It's taken me a few days to get his picture wearing it, so he's NOT very happy with me.

      [​IMG]

      However, he is perfectly happy with his present!

      [​IMG]

      One more shot - thank you so much, Azurielle!

    40. I got my gift yesterday, but had to go into surgery. I managed to snap Seb (who couldn't help but rip all the wrapping off in a hurry) playing with his new toys and in his new little shorts (which he desperately needed, by the way).

      [​IMG]

      Seb says a very big thank you to Collin who sent him the gifts and I thank Tiarah very much for such a great swap <33
       
    41. Seb is so adorable <3

      To be perfectly honest... I think Collin was a little jealous about the toys ;) XD

      So glad to see he enjoyed his gifts! (and I hope your surgery went well) ^_^
       
    42. Finally got around to taking pictures. These were taken this morning before work XD;

      Mimi already trying on the new hat and diving into her new stuff! (Had to cut holes for her ears. Hope that's ok :3)

      (Sorry for the huge pics. ><)

      [​IMG]

      See?! (I noticed the "Read card last" note after I opened the card, but I didnt read the whole thing till after. I think I must have opened the box upside down... derp.)

      [​IMG]

      Elise loved the picture of her! And The whole outfit and wig look great! <3

      [​IMG]

      My fairy/minimoy has a beautiful new fairy dress!! The word 'stoked' doesn't even begin to cover it.

      A beautiful necklace! It says "made with love"... I can tell.. :> It also has what I believe is a tiger's eye on it!
      [​IMG]

      A book, with a faerie on it, natch, and a bottle of fairy dust! Because no good fairy is complete without a good bottle of face-clogging fairy dust... Srs businss, yo.

      [​IMG]

      And the best part... well.. besides all of it, which totally rocks...

      She has wings now... *wibbles*
      [​IMG]

      Somebody's happy!
      [​IMG]

      It came with a really beautiful card, with a 3-d effect on it, and was signed by a bunch of names, ending with 'Pearl'.... But no username! Who could it be?! :P
      [​IMG]


      THANK YOU!!! (seriously, though.. proper photoshoot totally imminent... :P)
       
    48. Awesome outfit Gennii Drominda! The wings are fab and the whole leafy flowy skirt look is just what every Fae creature needs!
       
    49. Puff got such lovely gifts from Baakay and Quat. I actually made a 'birthday box opening' thread, but this was my favourite of the photos I took:
      [​IMG]

      A happy kitty writing her thank you note in the midst of chaos wrapping paper and ribbon was my second favourite of the pictures.
       
    50. [​IMG]

      Clover would like to thank Krowbar very, very, very much! I had a busy week, so I've just got arround to posting this. We received our gift on Monday of this week. Clover got a lovely new dress, an awesome hat, some fish & flowers, and a new friend : Stella the Unicorn!
       
    51. Porridge got her swap present the other day, and she was very pleased! Please excuse her lack of faceup, I wiped it after some smudging, and then the weather packed it in and so she hasn't gotten one back on yet!

      But here she is with her gifts:

      [​IMG]

      [​IMG]
      Here she is with her new Re-Ment set (she got the danish one, she is very pleased!), her Chicago Magnet, and her Chicago White Socks bat (which she has named her 'Monster Beating Bat'). And of course her gorgeous new romper! She loves it sooo much, and has informed me that she has to be made more rompers!

      [​IMG]
      She also got a gorgeous laser cut Chicago glass sculpture (she is pleased, I have a big one of a Rose that it can sit next to), a big box of stars (one of her favourite things in the world is stars, she was very pleased!) and some gorgeous flowers to put in her room when we get it set up.

      Thankies sooooo much TerraNoir - from me and Porridge!
       
    52. This was due, but I would like to say thanks again to Bliss for being such an awesome Birthday Swap partner. My Allienor could not be any more happier. ^___^ So here's the pictures I owe to Bliss.

      [​IMG]

      "I never expected the present to be wrapped up like this.. Or put into a box like so. ;----; It is so pretty!"


      [​IMG]

      "Oh wow, all these for me? T_____T"


      [​IMG]

      "T___T Oh my, I'm so touched. So many items. And all my favourite color too, from the box to the items. So thoughtful."


      [​IMG]

      "Thank you so much, Bliss! I love each one of them!"
       
    53. :) Allenier looks so lovely! No problem I enjoyed it and I'm so thrilled to see your girl so happy!!!!!

      Thank you so much for the lovely picturessssss :D!!!!
       
    54. Silver Identity that box is gorgeous and would love to see a close up of those shoes that are looking beyond awesome!
       
    55. Please excuse my fail pictures, my camera decided to die halfway through even though I just charged it this morning. D:< So I didn't get pictures of everything. Arg. Please also excuse her lack of wig. XD

      SmoteyMote and her darling Cey mailed me and Marley lots of cute things! Amongst the pretty pretty hot pink and lime green tissue paper, there emerged a sky blue chinese takeout box (which, of course, did not contain food and shouldn't anyway because it's much too pretty)! And inside this container, there was a nice little rose-adorned jewelry box, a brand new colorful blanket, four bright necklaces and a little kitty charm! Also included was a handwritten note from them both. <3

      [​IMG]
      Kitty charm!

      [​IMG]
      The sky blue necklace! There are hot pink, lime green, and indigo ones, too. :)

      [​IMG]
      The blanket! I set Mr. Kitty Charm down right there and forgot to remove him for the picture. :doh

      Thank you so much, SmoteyMote and Cey! n___n Me 'n Marley will have lots of fun with these. <3 <3 <3 :D
       
    56. Eee! I'm so glad you like it!

      And what a super cute hoodie too!
       
    57. Here is a photo of Iris with her swap gifts!

      [​IMG]

      She got a pink beret, rainbow scarf, cute little amigurumi bunny, and a blue star pillow! All so cute and perfect for her! My partner signed a real name, but not a DoA username... so I don't know who to thank, but thank you so, so much!!
