Birthday Grams 2013!

My next birthday gram is leaving quite early for Mary, as I am moving soon, I wanted to get it out to her asap otherwise i'd be super late- and I hate being late! So its in the post. Should be with her in 1 week.

Hey everyone, I've been checking the board.
@Sally can you confirm that you've recieved from Lisa. I think we can establish that the birthdaygrams from Mary and Joss have been lost in the mail.

I have been thinking about how to deal with lost birthdaygrams. I don't like asking people to resend as its not their fault that the postal system has failed to deliver. Therefore I was thinking of 'mopping-up' as the close of the board. i.e. I keep track of the number of b-day grams that everyone recieves, any that go missing we will share out between us. What do people think of this idea?

That sounds like a good idea. Lauren would you post a pic of what you've received. I love seeing what others have made and I've totally forgot what I sent. Thank you

Aww I hope mine to Sally didn't get lost. If it did I can resend since it is in the same country. I sent Lauren's a few days ago (since i wasn't able to send before my trip) and Mary's should be sent by Monday.

Also, Mary and Sally's showed up today! Pictures soon.

@Lisa is the item you sent in the picture that Sally posted? I thought it may have been there (I can see 5 cards in the pic) but Sally forgot to say she'd recieved from you.

I'd love to see pictures from Lauren and Lisa please! Its been a little while now..
I dont mind how lost birthday grams our dealt with x

I am having issues with uploading pictures. I will as soon as I am able. I will update with a message on what I got so far later today. My apologies. I am getting ready to leave for Arizona to move my sister back to Michigan. It has been a crazy summer! Also I got a package from Libby today!

Hey, ok these are a bit late.... I recieved Hayley and Arty Kitkats on my birthday and more recently so I thought I would wait and put them up together,
Hayley sent me a rose brooch (left) and Arty Kitkats (right) a bag charm and earrings x

Pamela sent me some lovely tea, and Rawr Rawr owl earrings x

Here is my stash off Libby, a vintage style card, crochet earrings and a little drawstring bag

and the last one, from Sally I got some lovely shells, seaside themed charms, a crystal necklace and some tea.

Mary also sent me some shell earrings, unfortunately the shell was broken in the post, but I will make something with the beads

Thank you every one
I have sent out Lisa's and Mary's will be out Monday

I have made it to Arizona. I wont be able to check my mail for 2 weeks. BUMMER!!! However I will be sending Mary's card out by Monday.
I hope Lauren's gets there soon.

Was it broken?! Awwwww (( My fault I guess, I should've packaged it a bit more, but... damn!

I'm running a bit behind with Marys but should be sending out early next week. Thanks Lauren for the pics. Its cool seeing what you got - that pumpkin spice tea looks yum
