Okay, peas, I have sent out all my cards, one to everyone on the list, including internationals. I wanted them to be homemade this year, and I think I had enough for about half, but then I realized that most of them had really dark bases and no interior sentiments... and I had no time to remedy that. So this year's are from the store and maybe NEXT year I will have them all handmade.
I've received several cards so far, and it's very exciting, so thank you everybody!

Most grocery stores too. They're probably just going to be plain flags, but it's also probably not gonna be "post office 12 days before Christmas" crazy, either.

I had a horrible and busy day at work yesterday. Customer service can be brutal this time of year. Came home to a pile Christmas cards! Cheered me up.

Happy holidays everyone, and thanks again girls! I'll be honest. Miss (not) organized went to pull up address list on laptop and pulled up last years by accident and you were the first on the list after @leowife and I addressed an envelope before I realized my mistake. Then I thought maybe it isn't a mistake and should send anyway because you've brightened my day more than once so I should returned the favor. So accidentally/on purpose/meant to be. Ho Ho Ho!

Hello Peas!!! I put all of my cards in the mail today, one for every person on the list including International Peas. I have been receiving cards non stop and it’s glorious. I have them displayed all over my living room ❤️ I had to do store bought this year, but next year I’m shooting for handmade. Thanks to everyone for such an amazing experience!

Mine will hopefully all go out by Tuesday! It is much much later than I ever wanted them to go out but I have enjoyed every second of making them and getting them ready as well as receiving every single card from each of you! ♥

I say this every year but I LOVE this swap! Seeing all the cards makes me so happy. (Maybe next year I’ll start earlier and make them crafty!)

Okay ladies, here's the deal... BAN me from ever signing up for the card swap again!!! I am a shame to the name Pea! Last year I was so mad at myself, I think I only got, barely if even, cards mailed to half the list. This year it's a big fat ZERO so far. I'm working late all week because we are off for two days. If work is not done by the time I leave on Friday, I have the kind of boss who expects you to come in on the holiday to finish. And there is no way I am working on Christmas! Then with holiday parties and cleaning and cooking, I know i'll never get them done and sent. 😥
All your cards are so awesome and it's so nice to come home to them. I promise I signed up with good intentions, but now I'm a PeaFraud! I'm sorry!!!!

No one is keeping a list of who didn’t send cards Do not let this bother you!!

Thanks everyone for all the lovely cards. There are so many handmade beautiful cards it inspired me to start working on my cards for next year . I have all my supplies and have a few days off work for the holidays. So card making for me next week. I hope everyone has a very Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!!

Thank you, Thank you to everyone! This is fun! I have been so delighted with every card. When I received any international ones I literally squealed for joy! It literally felt like Santa Claus again! Mine went out later than I wanted but I did manage to get everyone on my list. Also I wanted to make mine but was unable to - DH broke his collarbone and MIL had surgery (I'm the go to caregiver in the family). To anyone who was unable to send any out or to everyone - it's ok! This is fun and I for one do not expect a card from every.single.person. I doubt if anyone does. Happy Holidays and Happy New Year to everybody!
