Special Event Pictures from the 6th Anniversary Birthday Swap!

Jul 31, 2010

    1. TheFontBandit, it was me who sent your items. I'm so glad they got to you safely and the items fit! Iris is beautiful!
       
    2. Sorry for the delay in posting pictures . I was away at Gen Con and then I had company over last week . I didn't get time to post pictures. So here they are. I had a blast doing this swap and thank you so much Truffle for putting this swap on. You did an amazing job.

      If you guys would like to see it you can find it here~
       
    7. Thank you so much! I was able to find the Etsy shop, but my detective skills were unable to find you on DoA. :sweat Thank so SO much! I love them all, and they're all absolutely perfect for her!

    9. Kya everybody got such lovely gifts!!!!!!!! I still need to receive mine I'm so excited about it ^^!
       
    10. There was no DoA username included to thank for this, BUT! I got in my swap presents today! How lucky--just as I sent mine off! :D The presents are completely gorgeous, I just love all of it! There were cute candies for Mint, a little bear bag to hold them in, a stuffed cow, who along with his bear, Terrance E. Bearington - Earl of Beardom, is now name Sir Calidell Moorise - Duke of Cowdom. :D Included was also a cute owl, Mr. Owl now, and for me, lots and lots and lots of delicious candyyyy... ¦D Its like you knew I was on a sugar craving streak this week! &#9829;

      The best part however, was the clothing! An entire outfit, of a white lace shirt with bunched lace and tie piece at the chin, a vest, pants, a hat, and even a jacket! :D My other dolls are so jealous! And they were all so beautifully done, so, pictures~!

      [​IMG] The detail of the whole outfit was amazing! :D

      [​IMG] Chaaaa~ &#9829;

      Thank you so very much for the wonderful gift! You've made me and my doll so very happy! :D Mint says thank you very much, and he loves all of his gifts and the animals are all safe and sound in his room. :3

    12. Thanks goes out to Siria and Clover for the wonderful items we got over here~! Fidelis has already put to use a shirt and the necklace. And don't worry, the backpack has been kidnapped by a bunny rabbit intent on making it part of his new outfit. Though it might change a little. XD

    26. Today I got - I mean, my lovely Alice (a KDF Hodoo boy) got :lol: - an awesome package from the lovely Jemjoop. An enclosed label read: "for Alice: something to keep you warm & thought you might like a friend." Inside was a cute top with a scarf-style belt, and a teeny wind-up robot!

      As soon as he was wearing his new top, Alice decided to introduce himself to the teeny robot. Alice looked at the robot...

      [​IMG]

      ... and the robot looked back ...

      [​IMG]

      And since nothing dreaful happened, there was a small hug!

      [​IMG]

      Alice: Look what I'VE got!
      Hehe, I think they're friends already :) And Alice just looks adorable in the top!

      [​IMG]

    33. Sugar's swap gifts arrived from An Xin and Takuma! Here she is enjoying them with a few of her Pokemon. She got a lovely hat to keep the sun off her face while training on sunny days. She insisted on wearing it immediately along with a fun and colorful necklace in some of her favorite colors.:) There was a wonderful handmade cell phone that Bulbasaur promptly borrowed so he could call all his large extended family. Skitty grabbed the cute little asian kitty to take a ride with her on Sugar's skateboard. There was the tiniest little Pikachu ever who jumped into the center of Venusaur's flower for a ride. And an adorable little sheep (Sugar believes this to be a very young pokemon Mareep and has already fallen completely in love with her.) Sugar was also very excited about the lovely hand-decorated note that came with it...especially the part that said she was super-cute!:lol: Thanks so much An Xin and Takuma!

      [​IMG]

We are absolutely thrilled with them!

    41. Quat received his goodie box on August 20 and immediately ran off with the spoils. I finally caught up with him today.


      [​IMG]
      RRRRRRRRRROOOOOOOOOOW!!!!!

      Whatcha got there, little guy?


      [​IMG]
      Oh this? This is a really, really COOL ball of yarn that Mikan and her human Tenshi sent me in the swap package!! It’s GOLD… and it sparkles!



      [​IMG]
      And it’s MINE.
      That is definitely cool. What else came in the box, sweetheart?


      [​IMG]
      CATNIP. *__*
      Woah. Dude. Better hide that from the big felines in the house…


      [​IMG]
      No kidding!! Well see, the note that came with the box said that this was to calm me down if I get too excited playing with the yarn. But…hehehe… please don’t tell her that catnip makes me frisky! *blush*
      Ok, we’ll keep that between us. But hey, what’s that you have on?


      [​IMG]
      This is MY very own outfit! Look at it! A soft and fuzzy t-shirt and an awesome pair of overalls!
      Hey those are great! It looks like they fit you perfectly, too!
      Yep, they do. Now I can prrrrrowl in style!
      Now just a minute, you tomQuat. Didn’t you forget to say something important?



      [​IMG]
      Oh! Yeah! Um, Thanks Mikan! Thanks Tenshi! These are really nice things you sent — oh and I almost forgot all of the orange ribbons, too! Baakay says she likes those (and the big felines do too, so she hid them for now [​IMG] ) I really like everything a lot and this is my very first outfit that is all my own!
      Thanks again!
      and a PS from the Baakay – these are wonderfully made overalls and T-shirt too. Love ‘em! Thanks from me too!
       
    42. Wow, what cool kitty gifts! And Quat the Sanskrit "to bear young" Quat? (I still like Come Quat;)

      It's amazing how well that outfit works on him size-wise--that's a challenge to fit long-distance. And my favorite gift has to be the ball of yarn, though! :)

      What a cutie!
       
    43. Leenikins and I got our gifts from MareOfNight and Eraknight11 this morning! They are very lovely and we're so grateful. Here are some photos of our girls enjoying their wonderful presents.

      [​IMG]

      [​IMG]

      [​IMG]
       
    44. Yey! Thanks for the pics Mercredi and Leenikins! I am glad that everything worked out and I hope you enjoy! I thought it was funny that my husband and I got a couple to send to!
       
    45. Many hugs to Menolly07 and Ziggy who knitted me, ahem.....The Doctor some wonderful swap presents :)

      He's been feeling down lately after regenerating into a resin lifeform. His head ran off to Buff for some prettying while his body lounged (.....naked - who'd of thought the Ood would takes so long to launder a suit?) around the house, he can't find the TARDIS and worst of all, someone mussed up his hair!

      [​IMG]

      Hmmm - where did this come from? Lets look inside!

      [​IMG]

      D'oh! Not more of these things - I thought the Addipose went home!

      [​IMG]

      Moar presents! And and Addipose photobomb :P

      [​IMG]

      A Fourth Doctor scarf! Tom Baker was always my favorite - how did you know Menolly :aheartbea

      [​IMG]

      Feelin' Groovy....

      [​IMG]

      Oh noes! I look away for just a minute......How am I going to untangle you!?
       
    46. The pictures are SO cute, Baakay! I'm glad you and Quat like the stuff and I'm REALLY glad it fits! I worried so much about that. This is why I can't do commissions XD. Also, can you tell I was raised with dogs and not cats? Guess I should research what catnip does before I go off running my mouth ^^;.
       
    47. Catkin's gifties came from me, actually. ^^;; I'm so glad she liked them, though!
       
    48. Piper received a present in the mail today!

      [​IMG]
      You mean this whole box is for me?

      [​IMG]
      It's bigger than me!

      [​IMG]
      Can we make these now?

      [​IMG]
      Such a pretty card!

      [​IMG]
      Ooooooo pretty paper. (Notice the pet ENHANCED photo ;))

      [​IMG]
      Thank you who_la_hoop for all the prezzies and the candy, even tho Mom is eating all of it. :x

      [​IMG]
      Jaws also enjoyed the opening, there was one stray packing peanut that didn't stand a chance
       
    49. Mu Shu, Im so jealous of that mushroom! Its sooo cute! XD
       
    50. Because Tom is AWESOME!! ^.^ After I sent everything I thought to myself, "Darnit! You've been working on Fimo tiny food crafting. You should have made a broccoli pin!" The adipose photo bomb cracked me up. Actually, I basically squeed my wee heart out over him holding the amigurumi adipose. <3
       
    51. That is adorable...I love the hat. ^^ Like Moonyen's amigurumi too, the tiny ones are really cute....
       
    52. Today we got our swap gifts from Miss Carrion.
      They are absolutely adorable and I can not say "Thank you" enough :)

      [​IMG]

I might have to find a fresh plant to put inside, sadly I think the moss inside didn't make it =( The ocarina is also awesome... she can't wait to "serenade" her uncles Haru and Kai with it <3

      [​IMG] [​IMG]
       
    57. Here some pictures of the gift I resived. It is so awesome.
      [​IMG]
      [​IMG]

      Thank you so much Psywave. Kira and I totaly love the gift.
       
    58. I'm really hesitant to post this, but after seeing all the wonderful gifts people have received, and knowing what I sent my swap partner, I feel that I have the right to speak up.

      I'm totally disappointed in what I received from my partner. I entered my Fairyland Soso tiny. I didn't expect to get clothing for her because she's so small, but I was expecting anything other than what I received.

      I feel that my swap partner totally disregarded her profile and sent the cheapest thing she could find. I didn't expect her to spend a lot of money, but there are so many cute, inexpensive props/accessories out there to choose from. If she didn't have the funds to buy a decent gift, then she shouldn't have joined the swap.

      I'm sure she received/will receive something nice from her partner.

      To start with, there was no card or note, nothing to tell me who the gift was from. I feel there are two reasons for this. One is that she didn't care enough about the swap to bother with a note, or that she was ashamed of what she was sending and didn't want to me know who she was.

      I feel that she put no thought or effort into the swap at all.

      What she sent was some hair clips and a bead necklace, both of which are way too big for a tiny. That's where the lack of thought or effort comes in. She should have known that the scale was all wrong. The flower hair clips are as big as my doll's face! She would have known that if she'd bothered to pay attention to the size.

      I don't feel that I'm flaming her. I just want her to know how disappointed I was at receiving her gift.

      I hope that if she enters another swap, she'll pay more attention to the kind of doll she's buying a gift for and purchase something appropriate.

      Since I don't know who she is, I couldn't PM her, but I hope she reads this and gives it some thought.

      I feel that she knows she took advantage of the swap just to get something nice for her doll.

      Please don't flame me for speaking my peace.
