Christmas Card Exchange 2018...........

8 years ago

It's that time of year again! I know I'm not around a lot, but if you are all interested again this year, I will organize the card exchange again. I promised I would do it as long as I can, even if I'm not here often.

So, If you are interested, post here, so I know to look for a message, then send me a private message. Microsoft has locked me out of Word so I am now using Open Office. Sometimes I can still open things in Open Office that I have saved in Word, but I will not promise that I still have any information from past years. For those who are new to the group, and would be interested, here are the rules.

Christmas Card Exchange 2018
For those who are joining us for the first time, this is how it works. Send me a private message with your user name, real name, snail mail address, and email address. I will copy and paste your information into an Open Office word document. On November 22, I will divide everyone into groups, depending on how many sign up. I try to only put 10-15 in a group, preferably 10. It just depends on how many sign up. Once I have divided everyone into groups, I will email each of you a copy of that list. You will find your name. What ever group you find your name in is the group of people that you will send cards to. After you have sent cards to them, if you so wish, you may then send cards to anyone else, or everyone else, on the list that you would like to. Please try to have your cards out by the end of the first week of December, so that we can all enjoy the cards we receive all season. Thank you for your participation! Have fun!

    Thanks, ont-gal!

  • 8 years ago

    Thank you Ont_gal for helping Phyllis. I have added Phyllys_mn and Wanda _VA. My computer has decided it will pick and choose when I can connect to any web site. I have found a couple of work arounds, but they don't always work. I can read my email on my phone, and frequently do, but I don't want to open the card exchange emails there and transfer them to the file in my computer, as I have dyslexic fingers! I am afraid I will get something wrong. That's why I copy and paste every year. Thank you all for your patience with me.

    Sephia_wa has joined us! Thank you.

  • 8 years ago

    I think it would be nice to get a card from members here. Sending you a message.

  • 8 years ago

    Abbisgram, thank you for participating this year!

    Any one else interested?

  • 7 years ago

    I would have loved to, but seeing some of the previous ones shown before, I am too intimidated. They were all so lovely and looked handmade far as I remember. I am also not good at writing anything but “Best wishes”. I hope some of you will post pictures of the cards.

  • 7 years ago

    Iris, please don't be intimidated! The cards can certainly be purchased. No need to make them. That is just something I started doing about 30 years ago. And I quite often don't add anything but signing my name. I have never been good with words. Which is why I often only read, not comment on most posts. Please do join us! It's so exciting to see what comes in the mail each day!

  • 7 years ago

    The cards are lovely, but the exchange of good cheer is the best part of the Xmas card exchange. Most of the cards are not handmade. Iris, do not hesitate to participate.

    Tami, let me know if you need more info from me.

  • 7 years ago

    Happy2b, I don't have your email address, so if you could send that to me, that would be great! Thanks.

  • 7 years ago

    I sent the email address to you via the message tab on houzz. Let me know if you get it.

  • 7 years ago

    Got it! Thanks

  • 7 years ago

    Five days left to sign up if anyone else is interested!

  • 7 years ago

    There are about 11 of us signed up.

  • 7 years ago

    My cards won't be handmade, Iris. Handmade, purchased, sentimental, funny, religious, traditional, I like them all. It's the spirit of the season. I hope some more people sign up.

  • 7 years ago

    Ok, count me in. Tami, I will message you my info.

  • 7 years ago

    Abbisgram, well said! Thank you, Iris, I received your message. We now have 12 of us signed up. I hope more can join us.
