I hope you had a wonderful Christmas and are ready to celebrate the beginning of the new year with a bang. :D I've been meaning to post your final gift(s) but I've been out and about due to the holidays. A couple of things are in the works and should be ready for you soon. If you haven't seen them yet, please check out the icons I made for you on December 24th. :D I had an awesome time creating gifts for you this season and I hope that I've been sneaky enough. I also hope that we can get to know each other better over the next year. :)

For today's gift, I've bought you 2 months paid time for your Livejournal account - goingooo. :) Have fun!

Love,

Cherrie aka Jovie Elf

Hi Leia! :) I'm on my way out the door but I wanted to get this posted so you can have some gifts from me on Christmas morning, or whenever you get a chance to look at these. If you've already got the big envelope I sent you a few days ago in the mail, then you probably already know my identity - if not, you'll get it soon. :D This isn't your final gift, but probably is your final *icon* gift, but with me, you never know. Hehe. Anyway, enjoy and Happy Christmas! ♥

How are you today? I hope you're doing great. :) Christmas may be coming ever closer but one thing's for sure - much more is in store for you. So sit tight, grab a cup of hot cocoa (with marshmellows!) and enjoy the visual treats below. *hugs*

Manipulations

Sorry about Minerva, but I couldn't "photoshop her out" without making the picture look weird. Just think of her as an extra layer of "protection". :P LOL.

Icons (9)

Wallpaper (1)

Headers (2)

I made the first header today; you can never have too much Snape. Am I right or am I right? ;) I thought you might also like to grab the Love Actually header too, so I included it as well. Click on them to retrieve them in full. :)

Buttons/Codes (40)

Christmas is fast approaching. I hope you've been a good girl this year. :D Santa's still watching, ya know. ^^ Here are six more icons for you to use (or not use!) at your leisure. :) Enjoy! More gifts to come tomorrow soon.

Today I proudly present you with two wallpapers featuring the verrrrry *attempts to roll her Rs* foxy Matthew Fox photoshoot in Men's Journal. In case the first one doesn't make sense at first, think of the graphic as a palm tree on an island. The lyrics on the second one only make sense (sort of) if you think of the big graphic as a pinwheel and his arm as the stick. I have 'tested' both wallpapers on my desktops and I think they're error free. :) If you find anything though, please let me know and I will try and fix it. I'm sorry for not including more gift items today, but I am feeling under the weather after an exhausting week at the workshop. More to come tomorrow - stay tuned, Leia! *squish* :P

P.S.: The Kenobi icons are slightly different; one has a texture on top, one doesn't. :) I like them both.

We're so glad that you liked your first gift. It warms our hearts to know that you appreciate our 'slaving away' (but we love making you gifts, we promise!) to produce what we hope will be acceptable gifts for you to enjoy. :) The following icons have arrived for you fresh out of workshop - careful, they may still be hot to the touch. ;) (Not sure whether or not you like Elmo, but the picture was nearly begging to be made into an icon! ;))

YEE HAW!! It's going to be an absolute treat being your Secret Santa. I'm psyched about the whole thing. I've seen you around the boards and I think you're a very sweet and friendly person and I'd love to get to know you more as time goes on. Anyway, since I'm super busy with getting ready for my Christmas flight and all, I've enlisted Jovie Elf, one of my most prized helper elves to deliver your gifts this holiday season. Don't you worry, I'll still be popping in from time to time. :) If you want to talk to either of us (questions? comments? special requests?), we can be reached at jovie.elf[@]gmail.com or you can simply reply to any post. Santa has his own email address, but do you think I'd really risk giving it out here? Putting your info out on the internet is very risky these days and ya know, one can never be too careful! ;)

Your photobucket account will be the same as this livejournal.com account, so if you want to see everything, go ahead and check that out here. Each time we post something like a big package of codes or something, we'll email it to you or leave a link to a zip file in that post so that you won't have to spend time too much time clicking and downloading. :)

We see that you like the Snape/Trelawney pairing and want to attempt to write something for you. Do you have any ideas for short drabbles? We're very rusty as far as writing goes, but who knows, we just might be inspired to cook something up. ;) Alright, here's what you've been waiting for....

Here's your first present. It's the manipulation featured in the above note. Not bad for an amature pic manipulator, hmm? :D

Don't fret, there's a lot more to come when we're a lot less tired. Ta Ta For Now! :D

Sincerely,
Santa & Jovie ♥
