This idea came to me from the Secret Santa that we hold every year on Elftown. I'm wanting to somehow find a group of willing participants who don't mind sending a little holiday card joy to somebody across the world, country, state...universe even!


<img:http://elftown.eu/stuff/snflakebuljit.gif><img:http://elftown.eu/stuff/snflakebuljit.gif><img:http://elftown.eu/stuff/snflakebuljit.gif><img:http://elftown.eu/stuff/snflakebuljit.gif><img:http://elftown.eu/stuff/snflakebuljit.gif><img:http://elftown.eu/stuff/snflakebuljit.gif>


Here is the list, sign your name and any preferences:
1. [wicked fae mage]~I celebrate Yule, but am in a Christmas household. No preferences for my card.
2. [*Phoenix*] ~ Christmas!
3. [Silver Moon] Same as [wicked fae mage] but I prefer Yule
4. [moira hawthorne] Yule all the way... be naughty
5. [Ravendust] ~ Same as [wicked fae mage] :3
6. [Lirerial]---> Same as [wicked fae mage]!!
7. [Rook.] ~ I celebrate Christmas because I am a proud Christian :)



This wiki is now closed and I am shuffling the order of the participants for us to all make our uber cards! :0]

But I'll end sign up on the 16th and you will receive your assignment then and you can play around with your card until you're done, hopefully Kwanza (26th) will be the end of it, and next year I'll start it earlier.

Holiday Greeting Cards

Username (or number or email):

Password:

2009-12-13 [Skydancer]: Hmmmm this is a good start. Of course also trading mailing information to send snailmail and that can help too.

2009-12-13 [wicked fae mage]: Yes, from the willing participants since some are leery in general about giving out personal information on the internet.

And creative people who don't mind mailing a few cards to others is another requirement.

2009-12-13 [Skydancer]: :) true, hmmm happy naked yule elves dancing around a yule tree or a yule fire... with drumming. :D

2009-12-13 [wicked fae mage]: Yes! Or even a nice Rudolph drinking cocoa for the Christmas celebrators ^.^

2009-12-13 [Ravendust]: aww, cute ideas guys :p

2009-12-13 [wicked fae mage]: Yeah, we're bouncing ideas so far until my other buddies that I've invited get on.

Feel free to invite people you think might be interested if I can get this idea off of the ground.

2009-12-13 [Skydancer]: nods :)

2009-12-14 [wicked fae mage]: Ooooh, or maybe just a nice Elftown message with a card or picture in it, perhaps an email?

2009-12-14 [Silver Moon]: we could make cards

2009-12-14 [wicked fae mage]: How would you want to deliver and receive it though?

2009-12-14 [*Phoenix*]: I would love to get a card in the mail, but I wouldn't want to give my address out. Gotta remember that little fact.

Also...naked could be an issue. It would be an issue for me if I received a card with naked elves on it... >.<

2009-12-14 [wicked fae mage]: Well, if we say make a list, you could specify that you're Christian, thus celebrate Christmas and you'd rather not have naked elves.

[Skydancer] is known for working with nude models and turning women into faeries and elves since both are supposed to be nude, and I believe he celebrates Yule as well.

2009-12-14 [*Phoenix*]: That would work the best. :)

2009-12-14 [wicked fae mage]: Well, we can just do it and if it interest somebody else we can let them get added to the list.

If you don't want to give out your address we can just give the cards via Elftown. Sound good?

2009-12-14 [Silver Moon]: we could send the cards in a message to them

2009-12-14 [*Phoenix*]: oooh. Does sound good with me!

2009-12-14 [Silver Moon]: I have done that for my brother's birthday card, just attach it to one of the messages and you can send them

2009-12-14 [wicked fae mage]: Lol looking at the changes I'm quite the trendsetter xD

2009-12-14 [Silver Moon]: i invited a ton of people

2009-12-14 [Silver Moon]: I want to give the cards through elftown that way we can put it in our profile too

2009-12-14 [wicked fae mage]: We can do that.
But note that no freaking out because of drawing versus writing.
Remember that most cards have a nice poem or saying on the inside, so writing is quite accepted.

2009-12-14 [Silver Moon]: that's fine

2009-12-17 [*Phoenix*]: So what's the big hype about yule? How does it differ from Christmas?

2009-12-17 [moira hawthorne]: since christmas stole everything from yule ...not much... but as a pagan I dont celebrate juesue birthday... what Id like to ask the christian is,.. why dont you? bake him a cake give him a present its his birthday you say you are celebrating... why steal all the pagan traditions?

2009-12-17 [*Phoenix*]: How do you know I don't? Just assume that I'm a fake traditionalist? That's very rude.

2009-12-17 [Rook.]: Sign me up for this. It's abrilliant idea :)

2009-12-17 [*Phoenix*]: OOOOoo! Hurray to meet a fellow Christian, [Rook.]!

2009-12-17 [The Dizzy Raven]: Hey!!! I'm a christian too! Don't forget me! rofl! :P

2009-12-17 [James_Wolf]: Ello.

2009-12-17 [wicked fae mage]: Hello

2009-12-17 [Rook.]: Hello :) *curtsies* nice to meet you all.

2009-12-17 [The Dizzy Raven]: Nice to meet ya 2

2009-12-17 [Rook.]: :)

2009-12-22 [moira hawthorne]: when are we giving the cards we made?

Here's mine! lol and thanks [Rook.]

2009-12-24 [wicked fae mage]: Awesomeness =D

2009-12-24 [*Phoenix*]: Thanks!!!

2009-12-24 [*Phoenix*]: I don't really know anything about Yule so I went with what you said up above and this is the result. I hope you like it! Happy Holidays, [moira hawthorne]! If it isn't "yulish" let me know and I'll come up with something different. (Don't hesitate to ask!)

<img300*0:stuff/aj/179797/yule%20card%20to%20%5bmoira%20hawthorne%5d.jpg>

2009-12-24 [wicked fae mage]: Awesome-ness! ^.^

2009-12-24 [*Phoenix*]: Thanks! We have a fiber optic tree and I took a picture of some of it and messed with it a bit and this was the result!

2009-12-24 [wicked fae mage]: I love those things. They're the holiday lava lamps xD

2009-12-24 [*Phoenix*]: lol. Me too! My mom calls it "my tree." I also have fiber optic dolphins!

2009-12-24 [wicked fae mage]: Nifty. Never saw one of those before.

2009-12-24 [*Phoenix*]: It's pretty awesome. I shall take a picture for you! :)

2009-12-24 [wicked fae mage]: Yay =D
I'm gonna be gone most of today...so Merry Christmas to the Christmas celebrators.

2009-12-24 [*Phoenix*]: Give me a minute and I'll have them.

Thanks!!! This afternoon I'm heading over to my dad's house for Christmas, tomorrow's my family's and I'm going to my grandma's to hang out that evening, and then Saturday is the huge family get together. :)

2009-12-24 [wicked fae mage]: Sounds like chaos and somehow fun :)
I'm doing errands and running on caffeine, maybe stopping in on the Christian family for a bit if they're home...

2009-12-24 [*Phoenix*]: It's fun because I don't really do anything. It's not like I'm doing something every minute. It's actually really relaxing. :)
Coolio. Sounds like fun. Doing errands here would be a bad day. We've got snow and then freezing rain and yickyness!

2009-12-24 [wicked fae mage]: The snow around here is pretty much gone, but I'm hoping at least for pretty flurries as to my Articuno reference in my mood xD

2009-12-24 [*Phoenix*]: Coolio! We still have a nice layer of snow. I'm going to add a ton of picture I took to my Snow Photos page...I haven't had a chance to upload them yet.

2009-12-24 [wicked fae mage]: I get too cold to enjoy the snow, really *frowns* But it is pretty

2009-12-24 [*Phoenix*]:
<img200*0:stuff/aj/179797/1261636375.jpg>

<img200*0:stuff/aj/179797/1261636573.jpg>

Ta-Dah!

2009-12-24 [*Phoenix*]: It is pretty, but I understand...I hate being cold!

2009-12-24 [wicked fae mage]: It's awesome! I think I want one...of Flareon being carried by Articuno in its claws =D

2009-12-24 [*Phoenix*]: That would be cool!!!!

2009-12-24 [moira hawthorne]: wow [*Phoenix*]its huge!! I mean HUGE! its bigger than my desk top.. had to skink it so it fit and the whole thing showed... thx you. I dont know if Ive ever seen a fiber optic tree... i thought it was fireworks... we have a real tree... and a kitten playin with all the decorations... he is kindda weirded out b/c he cant help playing with the tree but he kepts getting yelled at so now he is a bit skiddest... the whole living room/main floor is too full with too much new stuff and its all stuff he wants to eat play with break tear apart.. ect...

2009-12-24 [Silver Moon]: Has anyone finished mine?

2009-12-24 [wicked fae mage]: Kittehs are naughty little creatures...but they're cute =D

2009-12-24 [moira hawthorne]: oooh he is very cute... but I dont want him to get hurt by breakin something or eating something he shouldnt

2009-12-24 [wicked fae mage]: I <3 Kittens.
I have 2 grown up calicos...one that was found at a few weeks old and the other who was given at a few years old...and they're naughty little things.

2009-12-24 [moira hawthorne]: since they are calicos... i will believe that!

2009-12-24 [wicked fae mage]: Yes, yes. *sighs*
And they both manage to sleep with me.
Keeping me up with darting around the room, knocking stuff down and then trying to be cute.
But they have cool markings xD

2009-12-24 [*Phoenix*]: Sorry about that. Ya, I messed with it a bit and faded and stuff so it doesn't quite look like the original picture...

Awww. He sounds like a cute kitten. I understand though because I have 4 cats and mine, Morris, we found at my grandma's house and she lives on the lake so he like to drink the water out of the tree stand...They've all learned to stay away from the tree though because we've had them for a couple years...Although my dog was bad! She had a really hard tail and she's start wagging and it and BAM! an ornament would crash to the floor....*sniff* we don't have to worry about her this year...*sniff*

2009-12-24 [wicked fae mage]: *huggles* Animals are better company than most humans and we tend to miss them more, too.

2009-12-24 [moira hawthorne]: Loki's tail (our dog) is a major hazard to nearly everything... at that height... he has taken quite a few ornament off the tree so far... mostly playing with the kitten,... and general happy tail wagging... but Bond CLIMBS the tree and nothing is safe! but it not just the tree the has come under attack... he attacks everything! all the other wrapping and ribbons and boxes and stuff...

eventual he may learn that this stuff tho they only come out once a year are 'no mess with stuff'

2009-12-24 [wicked fae mage]: Sen'jin and Gracey like ribbons >.>

2009-12-24 [*Phoenix*]: lol. Cute, funny, and annoying all wrapped into one! What a great gift! lol!

2009-12-24 [wicked fae mage]: Lol, pets are just uber.

2009-12-24 [*Phoenix*]: Yes sire!!!!!!

2009-12-24 [moira hawthorne]: well peeps its 3am here.. in the frozen snowless north.. I need to head to bed... because Yule is a crazy 2 weeks and I need my rest to keep up to a very excited 9 yr old boy... I hope Bond will come sleep now too and not destroy anything while I cant stop him

2009-12-24 [wicked fae mage]: *grins* I should dress my kittehs up as santas and take pics xD

2009-12-24 [moira hawthorne]: eirikr and i put hats on Bond and Loki... Bond attacked his... Loki just gave me his... 'oh... this again' look

2009-12-24 [moira hawthorne]: bed bed bed

2009-12-24 [wicked fae mage]: G'nights my naughty faes =]
I'll be crawling into the flower to rest myself soon
