Simple Swap Brag Thread

Squee, I get to brag first!

I found a box waiting for me today when I got home. It was from the lovely Clones_rebellion.

The next package I opened contained this cute lunch box set.

The box came with a note:

"I bought this when the Lion King was still in theaters! I never used it,
but I've kept it for over 20 years waiting for just the right thing to do with it!
When you said you love the Lion King I knew I've been hanging
on to this box just for you!"

I can't even tell you how taken I am by this gift! I still have shivers going down my spine. The Lion King is my all time absolute favorite movie ever, I've seen it I think around 30 times by now, and it never gets old. Thank you so much Clones. And look at the design on the other side of the thermos! So adorable!

Color coordinated so soft ponies! And Skippity Doo came with her stand wich is awesome, because I've been meaning to get one for reference (maybe I can make some more now that I know how they should be like. )

What a box, what a box! Thank you Clones!

Wow! Lovely box ~ those so softs are just so gorgeous! Congrats!

[buttonso]

What a cool swap idea- I hope I can participate next time it comes round (if you guys do it again!)  I look forward to seeing what you guys all get!!

The story behind that Lion King set is pretty amazing. I love how the box was loaded with chocolate. And those so softs are totally lovely--they can be hit or miss, which can make sending them tough, but those three are beautiful! Congrats!

How wonderful to have held on to the Lion King lunchbox set for all these years, and find a perfect home for the.

Wonderful brag and beautiful SS ponies!

That was so nice of Clones_rebellion!   . I had that same lunch box and thermos as a kid.     The flocking on those so-softs sure is nice after all the years!  And those curls on Fifi...WOW!!  Congrats!

My turn to brag! My daughter was home sick from school today (ear infection and ruptured ear drum!), so it was a rough day, to say the least. .....enter my swap box from Raspberry Brulee! Warning: pic heavy hee hee

DD helped me open the box, which was jam packed with goodies and the most fun, sparkly, packing grass!

Raspberry Brulee included a special gift for my daughter, based on my calling her my 'little spitfire'! (You can tell she doesn't feel good, and has a fever, poor thing) She was so excited to be included, that was so extremely thoughtful of you <3

Raspberry Brulee wrote that she included stuff for DD so that I could open my gifts in peace hee hee
Here's a Mrs. Cake (one of my absolute favorite characters!) patch--gorgeous, and I think I'm going to frame it right on the card in my craft room

Thank you so, so much Raspberry Brulee--it was a wonderful, SPOT ON box, and I am eternally grateful for your kind words and kind gesture for including my "little spitfire"

Your new ponies are lovely and the Ursula mini pop is absolutely incredible! Congrats on the lovely new goodies.

[SunPony]

Ooo, the Lion King lunchbox is most awesome! 

Congrats on two great boxes you guys!   The ponies all look beautiful   

[achab1984]

Congrats! I love Lion king and remember that lunch box and mug!

[kiwimlp]

Two great boxes so far. Love the pony patch! I've never seen one of those before. 

[aquamarinemolly]

Awww!!!! Yaaaaaaaay CoonhoundBetty I'm so glad that package arrived on a day when it was needed, I had so much fun putting it together. You've got great taste in ponies, and one super cute kid!

[Vintageg2]

Wow these boxes are amazing!
I look forward to take part in a swap sometimes (when I can meet up the criteria!)
It is really great to see all the joy they create

[Artemesia's Garden]

Lovely to see! Sorry your little one is ill CHB, I hope she is on the mend...

[wlyteth]

I got my box today from SunPony, and it was a blast to open!

I took out the card and when I turned it over I gasped so much! It was a beautiful picture of my ponysona Sonnet Scroll! I can't wait to find a frame for it so I can hang it in the pony/craft room.

Next I opened this wonderfully flocked Magic Star! I just had to pet her for a while she was so soft and clean and had amazing hair. I restrained myself after a while so I wouldn't mess her up She also came with a cute pink bird brush (pictured later) which I think is her original!

Sorry this one came out so blurry, I didn't notice til I uploaded it and she is already assimilated into my Rarity army. I love turning her upside down so the glitter moves around.

I was really excited to open this one! A very minty Merriweather and she has a cute ribbon on her tail! Her hair is so soft and the symbols are perfect.

Group shot of everything. I had never tried that flavor of Toblerone, but its now my favorite! I forgot to photograph the other extra I got? SunPony also gave me a pack of cards for the MLP CCG and in it I found a shiny crystal Rarity card which is also joining the Rarity army.

Thank you so much SunPony for the lovely box and the very thoughtful card. I loved all the things you included from my posts, I hope that one day we are in a swap again and I can make a box for you!
