MAKE A BOX - MAY 2011

All ready to go must remember to take piccies in morning

Yes, stamped and ready to go to the PO.

Oooooh, lovely jubbly.

My box went in post this afternoon.

Received a fabulous box from Maria this morning. Love the colour and image on it. Many thanks Maria

Don't forget the piccies girls. Either the maker or the receiver can take them. The gallery is ready.

I need my "receiver" to photograph it because it was when I was camera less as it was broken. Thanks!! xx

...and hopefully my 'receiver' will be able to take a piccy, as I managed to delete the one I took .

glad it got there ok Cynthia, not the most practical thing to send in the post, and glad you liked it too. I have a picture if you want me to put it up.

I had to post mine on Saturday as I told my recipient and it doesn't seem to have arrived yet!

Well mine was posted yesterday First Class and doesn't appear to have arrived; let's hope RM deign to deliver it tomorrow!

Mine went First Class too Tina.

It came this afternoon Cath. Thank you, it's really lovely.

Just waiting for mine, Tina's and Cynthia's to arrive then.

Fingers crossed mine will come tomorrow. Had no post whatsoever today

Boo Hoo! Sad little brightsider here today because the postie has just been and no box in the post again.

well I am over the blooming moon! My postie has been and ive hit the jackpot here.... I have received THE most gorgeous box ever, its so lovely and sturdy and with a divine little key and lock on the outside and a proper catch and is quite the best made box I have ever seen. of course its been divinely decorated too and is in glorious teal and chocolate colours AND its full of galaxy, my favourite.

Have been forced to test the galaxy and make sure it has travelled alright, yes even after my large lunch i found room for it.

Oh thank you a zillion, this box is so lovely, and I am so lucky that i got Lorraine sending to me and also feel a bit guilty because the box i made is nowhere near as good as this, not in the same straosphere.

Thank goodness I joined in this one, which i nearly didnt. I LOVE it.

shall i take a picture of it to put up Lorraine, to make them drool or have you (your photography being streets better than mine, so if you do have we will use yours eh). WAIT till they see it. WAIT till mum sees it (doubt it will have galaxy in it by then but I know mum wont begrudge me it).

Lorraine, you are sooooooo talented.

My postie has just been with a pile of post.
I have a lovely box from Cynthia, and I love what you have done
with the inside piece. Very good and love the colours.

Did you take a photo Cynthis ?
If not, I will do one in the morning as I need to charge the camera.

Glad you got Lorraine's Mia as we all know how lovely her stuff is! I am jealous ... and you keep a square of that Galaxy for Mumty otherwise it will be another trouser button!!!!!! xxx

I did take some but need to get them on computer to check they turned out ok. Glad it reached you safe. Our post was also really late today.

Oh, you didn't like it then Maria?
I'm so glad you did and I remembered from wayback about the Galaxy so popped a few bars in for you.

This has been the best swap ever (from my point of view!) and there is utterly no doubt which wins best in show here!

Shall we take it then that Mia was pleased with this one Lorraine!!!!

Mmmm- not too sure about that !!!

I started getting excited as soon as I saw the writing on the package... then i checked the postocde, which was written TEENY to try to evade me, but by then I was alreayd cock a hoop as since when has Lorraine ever sent anybody anything that wasnt utterly fab?
