My secret santee will be receiving three separate packages spaced out over the next week because online shopping is silly
Ive heard mine was on its way... so I’ve been excited checking the mail every day here and now I’m afraid it’s gonna come to my school address after I’ve left for a month and I’m gonna have to wait until January to get it.... c’mon mailman, don’t let me down!
Woohoo! I can see that the one I sent a few days ago arrived for my santee today. Hope he/she likes it 🙂
Now, now...
HOLY CRAP!!!!!!!!!! I LOVE IT SO MUCH!!!!!!
I’m actually speechless this is amazing. Thank you so much @Vombatidae
I'm glad. It was a "wild" drawing compared to what I normally do. I thought you'd get a laugh out of it. Glad you're anxiety is over since you have it now! 😀
FYI - she loves red pandas (clearly) and divergent.

It’s so perfect!!!
to be fair I do have anxiety over basically everything, so I hope I didn’t make you feel bad!! I love it!!!
It just took forever because I could only work on it after work and it is a cross-hatch style so all linear lines. Looks better but takes more time. Glad you like it 🙂
Hahaha I appreciate the effort. I’ve basically been parading around everywhere saying “GUYS LOOK HOW COOL THIS IS”.
I started 2 other ones - one super natural and one Harry Potter and I just ran out of time.

I am in awe 
That's gorgeous!
omfg its amazing!!
Yay yay yay! It arrivedddd! Thank you Santa for the bath goodies! Can’t wait to relax after my last final tomorrow! 😍
Could I hire you to draw a picture of our dog for my son? Like for real, I'd love to give that to him as a birthday present (mid-January).
PM me and we can talk. 🙂
@Vombatidae, you are amazing!
Oooooh I see one package was delivered to my secret Santee, hope you enjoy 😏
I'm going to be obnoxious here and say it's a lot more hard work than talent. Anyone can become talented if they don't give up.
I don't make a living as an artist because I'm talented, but because I worked my bum off to learn and am still learning.
I shall get off my soap box now.
Same
Wow do I feel unworthy! I was once deemed the "mother-effing khaleesi of gift-giving" but that one is truly impressive - well done @Vombatidae !

Thanks guys, but definitely, as @nohika said, more hard work than anything. In this case, more hand cramps. Besides - most of y'all got into - or even out of - vet school and I have yet to accomplish that (here's to hoping!). We all have skills, no worries.
Onto other gifts- what else have people gotten? I love Christmas time 😀

The bulbasaur!!! 😍
@EngrSC you are welcome and that was the last one! Merry Christmas!
You’re awesome! The animals are loving the treats (they’re a bunch of fatties) and I will most definitely be wearing both shirts on the regular!
My Secret Santa gift should be sent off today or tomorrow. 🙂 It will be two separate parts, which is sad because I wanted to make one pretty package. Alas I don't have the time to get something shipped to my house, then wrap it with the rest, and then send all of that out.
Second part has been successfully shipped. I shouldn’t be trusted with the tape rolls at the USPS though. Cut my finger while trying to tape the box so now I can say I put my blood into the making of this present
Sorry Secret Santee. Puppy emergency/illness has taken priority. I have the stuff for the gift, and just need to get it shipped.
THANK YOU @Karabiner13! This is all awesome. 🙂 The popcorn is, as promised, amazing!
Winston helped open it.
We got...
Cookies (that I didn't take a photo of)
Karabiner-family-recipe caramel corn PLUS the recipe to make it myself
These awesome quilted ornaments...like seriously, you made these? They are so cute!

And that's not all! Winston got three toys, which he loves.
A unicorn...
A crinkly owl...
And a raccoon! (He's rolling on the floor with it)
He keeps running from one toy to the other. Thank you so much!

Gift shipped and should arrive early next week!
I'm happy to see at least SOME of the dinosaurs survived the trip intact! The second part looks like it arrived today, so depending on your apartment mail situation, you should have it soon!
yay Winston!!!!! He’s so happy!

My Santa thought Gail was a cat...oops!!! [emoji23] I'm sorry I wasn't clear - I assumed everyone knew Gail! But that's okay, Gail loves her stocking either way and I will donate the cat goodies to a local shelter 🙂
I also got a cat throw & a really pretty cat shirt - I love everything so much!! Thank you!!
edit: sorry the pictures are sideways, I uploaded them from my phone and I'm not sure how to fix them!

Probably because you have a cat in your avatar and not your Doggo hahaha
Thanks Santa! Will definitely be enjoying this today! Was so confused why my Amazon package was a day early and not in an Amazon box 🙂

Side question, was the box sprinkled with catnip? Because my cat is losing it right now haha. And yes I did just dig in to the mints, don't judge me...
