Great brags so far, oh my!!
Mareacooda, you did such a great job on the box you put together for wyndeboo. I have always wanted to visit Maine, but now I really want to go! Great ponies, too -- MO Napper, wow!!
SparklersOasis, your box to MiRaja is also incredible. Starglow and Love Letter look perfect, and check out that huge bag of nummy nums!!
Doedeardarling, I know I've told you before, but I just LOVE your pony artwork. You drew so many beautiful ponies for cassstorm, she's a lucky lady!! It looks like you took some great photographs of Baby AJ and Baby Explorer, too. Fun!
Hee hee... cyberunicorn, your drawing of the pony and the sheep had me laughing out loud! There are some differences, of course, but a lot of the pictures I sent to my partner have a very similar look and feel to them. But I am in awe of the amazing scrapbook you put together, wow. And tsukikakushi, you did a fabulous job setting up your brag photos. I loved looking at everything!
SparklersOasis, what an awesome box from xeevee! The ponies all look gorgeous, and the photo ops are so fun and clever. I didn't know all that about Dr. Seuss. What a cool library!
wyndeboo, I love the box you put together for Mori_LeStrange. I love this box so much. It looks packed with goodness from corner to corner, and the items chosen are so thoughtful. Beautiful photo albums, too. Great stickers!
Last, but certainly not least, Doedeardarling's box from clones_rebellion. Again, wow. Maine, I mean... who knew?
And I am loving all of these incredible scrap books. I admit I didn't do anything nearly so cool for my own partner.
Post Merge: July 07, 2014, 07:26:45 PMI got my box from MikeysGrrrl ages ago but am only just now getting around to posting the brag photos. Sorry if I made you worry, MikeysGrrrl, I absolutely LOVED my swap box!!
Annoyingly, the box got heavily soaked by rain on its way here, so I hope no one minds that I am not going to post pics of the soggy box and damp wrapping.
I was so excited to see that my shopping partner was from Canada. I've never been and it's one of my top travel destinations.
Here are some local brochures, business cards, and a calendar from a historical Tudor-style home called the Willistead Manor in Windsor, Ontario. MikeysGrrrl got some really fantastic photos with the ponies there; it's definitely a place I'd love to see someday. The curb appeal alone is jaw-dropping.

I also got a totem pole keychain, some badges, winter magnets, a distinctly Canadian TY Beanie Baby Bear, a notebook wearing a hoodie (yes, you read that right!), a pen, and perhaps my favourite, a lovely Canada sign that looks like it is carved from the wood of a birch tree, but is actually probably resin. I love this so very much -- thank you, MikeysGrrrl!
Now for the ponies... they may or may not look exciting to you, depending on your pony preferences, but MikeysGrrrl paid close attention to my wish list because they almost all had asterisks by their names. All ponies are as minty as can be and arrived ready to display, complete with tail ribbons! I love all the ponies, although I was especially thrilled to receive Baby Ribbs in my box! He is so hard to find in mint condition, and I have been searching for a LONG time.
