I got two cards today. One was from you Cosmic Death. And contained a neato patch. So, thank you sir.

You're not a sir! Don't I feel dumb.

Haha, awe, it's ok! ^_^ Could you post a pic? I forgot to scan my cards before I sent them out, like a right numpty. :P

I received a lovely card from BizarroJoe! Thank you Joe!!! Definitely time to be naughty! ;D

I also received a card and some hand drawn stickers from CaptainBen! :O They are freakin' awesome. I'm gonna post the front of the card and the stickers, but I'll leave the penis nativity scene on the back of the card up to your imagination (for now). lol

Yeah, I think BizarroJoe mass printed a bunch and just mailed em off. Nae must've included them with other cards being sent off.

Yeah, I think you might be right. ^_^ That was pretty decent of Joe and Renae! I'm pretty excited to see the rest of these cards already!

What!?! I was the winner of said lottery!? Omygosh! :)

First of all, it came in some delightful little packaging, made with the same sort of paper used for the card itself, all nice with a little bit of black ribbon. So as I joyfully (and carefully) open it up, the card slides out with ease, and I see the really awesome candy-cane ornament! (which on the inside of the card clearly states (do NOT eat!) The front of the card reads "May your Holiday be As Sweet as you. . . :p At this time I'm feeling really excited about the card, it is SO nicely put together it could be sold under hallmark!

I finally untie the big red ribbon, and underneath that is a blotch of scribbled black marker, with TONS of teeny tiny details in silver pen, and when i say details I mean like realllllll small. This thing must've taken a long time! Theres a stocking that says "you" on it, a candy cane, some mistletoe, a christmas tree, some holly, a candle, stars and little phrases all fit into about a 2.5x2.5 inch spot! Absolutely stunning, and I hadn't even opened the card yet! The picture of it to follow may not do it justice, so I'll have to scan it up later on.

So I really couldn't hold back anymore, finally turn the page and BOOM! its Angry Faic looking right at me, I seriously laughed so hard it was such a surprise! I get to the other side, and it has a cool cutout of a christmas tree with red foil behind it, with diagonal running strands of mini ribbons to boot. The card reads "Dear You, Have a really good holiday! ^-^ - woot! Hope you have a tree or something to hand that ornament on. Best wishes, Cosmic Death" HOLY SHIT Cosmic Death's card!? I felt pretty damn lucky :) Although I don't know if I'm going to use the ornament on the tree, because then I would have to take apart the card!
- - - - -

So given this one of a kind card, I felt I had to share with you all, (and especially Cosmic Death) How awesome the card is, and how great I felt opening it and reading it. Cosmic I can't thank you enough for your hard work on this thing, it truly is special!

I also have to definitely thank BizarroJoe for the postcard too! I absolutely love the style and the quote made me laugh :) It was really nice of you to send everyone one of those!

And of course have to thank ReNaeNae for putting this whole thing together, I think it is one of the best things to come from the art forum in a long time, being able to connect with the other users in a way like never before! Can't wait for the next one :)

Heres part 2 of 2 of Cosmic Death's card, it's outta this world!

My card from the stunningly beautiful, yet fiercely intelligent CosmicDeath. A woman for whom her own beauty has but a passing interest to her. For she concerns herself far more with her... uhh

must get out of hole

...own growth in her craft. In both she shines like the sun. She... she... uh... so yeah, I'm an idiot.

Anyway SCANS!

While she's not the best at drawing, she's just incredible at crafting and putting stuff like this together.

Not the best at drawing? Have you seen her artwork? She's incredible :D
My final exam is today, so I'll be heading home tonight. Hopefully it's arrived at my house by now.

Seeing all these great cards makes me happy that I didnt churn out an average card just to get in on this...

Lol, and here I was thinking she didn't do anything at all. Well, that's a great gift at least :D

Response to 2009 Holiday Card Exchange 2009-12-22 13:09:24


Also, she was sweet enough to get a Christmas card for me. Even though it isn't artist-done, it's still filled with holiday happiness.

What? No. Who did it? I think your art is great. If that's it? And I'm not just saying that because I'm trying to win back points after calling you 'sir'.

Shit, I'm sorry. I didn't notice any of your drawings before being an little bias shit right there. Congrats on making it to the calender, and sorry for jumping to bad conclusions.
