I just got one back, too. From KY... could it be same? Address wrong? MN for mine. Just re-addressed it, stuck a fresh stamp on it, and keeping fingers crossed that it makes it to her! Well you could be me LOL. I got two back because I forgot to put stamps on them. Duh |

I sent mine out!
I sent to everyone on the list, including all international.
I was sad to see a few names not on my list that mentioned they were joining/participating. It’s hard to be so hated/disliked at Christmas!!!
I’m sure the bulk of them will arrive before Christmas, with possibly exception of international, but they’ll get there.
Thanks for another year and grateful to those who sent any my way.

I was sad to see a few names not on my list that mentioned they were joining/participating. It’s hard to be so hated/disliked at Christmas!!! I'm confused. The same label list went to everyone. There were two versions, but the only difference was the list for international peas has USA under all the US addresses. The domestic list did not have that line. As for the list, I hate to admit how many times I counted and recounted all my outgoing cards trying to figure out why I was missing one. After about the 6th time it dawned on me that the "missing" card would be the label for myself. Please tell me I wasn't the only one to do that!   The cards are still arriving and I am really enjoying them all. So many creative peas out there! |

I remember several years ago in the exchange, one of the peas admitted that she had mistakenly sent herself a card 😆 |

Loving all the happy mail that has been gracing my mailbox the last couple of weeks. Mine all went postal yesterday so they will be heading to everyone soon! I prefer to think of it as extending the holiday season rather than to be late at sending them out  |

Sorry for unnecessary drama (I’d delete my post but it’s been copied/quoted) I’m a bit sensitive this week, had a work “friend” throw me under the bus and then not be included in work activities, which hurt my feelings. |

I did find it but I don’t see Elaine! Elaine wasn't on the list I received to make labels from, so it appears she didn't sign up this year. At least not for this exchange. |

The wonderful cards I've received have really brightened my holidays! I hope next year to make cards; I've really gotten some stunners!

I mailed my last few cards yesterday morning. I apologize to anyone that receives their card late. I made most of my cards and really enjoyed it but seriously underestimated how long it would take. I’ll definitely start earlier next year!
Thanks to everyone that sent me a card - I love them all.

I’ll definitely start earlier next year! Thanks to everyone that sent me a card - I love them all. I’m sitting on that bench with you. I thought I chose a simple design, but I was so much busier this fall than I had anticipated. The good news is that I started on next year’s cards today! We move back to the States in September and I know there won’t be time next fall. And I’m not sure what is going on, but Elaine is on my list. |

She also wasn't on the sign up list that was forwarded to me. I have gone over the lists, both excel and word labels, with a fine tooth comb and can't find her. |

I have gone over the lists, both excel and word labels, with a fine tooth comb and can't find her. Well, now I’m worried that I pulled last year’s list. Off to check on that! ETA: Son of a NUTCRACKER! That's exactly what I did; I used last year's list. Mother forking shirtballs. I just did a search in my email and last year's email was the only one that pulled up. I typed "2 Peas Card Exchange" and only one email came up. This year's email is titled "2 Peas Holiday Card Exchange". I'm so stupid--I knew that a list of corrections had gone out, so there should have been at least 2 emails that came up in my search. Well, I guess I'm not done. And yes, they will be terribly late as there isn't any APO mail going out until Monday. I'm so terribly sorry. |

I knew that I wouldn’t have the time. My apologies! if I could have, I would have. Michy did not leave me off the list. 🥰 |

The questions about you and someone saying you were on their list had me really worried I had screwed up. Wishing you and your family a very Happy New Year! |

I’m so irritated with myself. |

I've done a lot of these lists, labels and directories over the past 20 years and know things can happen. That's why I was so concerned. Didn't want to be kicked out of the card exchange the first year! Hope that you have a Happy Christmas and New Year in Belgium. |

I bet many of the names are the same!!!!! 21 names are different. I was up until 2am figuring it out. We are going to Paris on Sunday, so I’m not sure I can get 20 remade in time. I may just do a new design and call them New Years cards. At this point, they won’t be there until mid January as it is. What irritates me is that I knew my label had that note about the postage and I didn’t notice that my list didn’t have it. I was watching tv while addressing them and thought I was so clever not to write out my address. Ha. The joke is on me! |
