I was following a girl on youtube as she opened the Advent Calendar from Diamond Press last year and I had gotten a die that I had already opened in a previous door, she had a cute bird on a branch die, and you know how I love my birds, so I was quite bummed when I didn't get that. I mentioned it on the Diamond Press facebook group, and a few mentioned I needed to contact Diamond Press and see if there was anything they could do. I told them I would do that and I did.
Meanwhile another girl mentioned a few days later that she didn't really care about that die and she would be willing to give it to me, I thought that was so sweet of her but I told her how I had contacted Diamond Press and wasn't sure what was going to happen there, she said she would send it anyway and if I get one from them I can pass it along to someone else. Meanwhile on my post another girl mentioned the same thing happened to her.
I did hear back from Diamond Press and they said they had one left in the warehouse and they were sending it. I ended up getting two of them now, so I sent the other one to the girl in my post that mentioned she didn't get one either, and I made the first girl a Thank you note for sending me her die and sent along some goodies to her, along with this card using the bird die :)
