It was my very first piece of mail address to all to me! And, it was a super cute, kid themed Christmas card. I was so thrilled and touched that she did this for me and ever since I've liked sending cards.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3753791058334220460.post-15916981665645469742010-11-17T21:34:05.359-06:002010-11-17T21:34:05.359-06:00I do love to send cards.

Everyone in our family appreciates it, especially since most of our family lives in different states.Heather @ Life, Gluten Freehttp://www.lifeglutenfree.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3753791058334220460.post-81621049866401131492010-11-16T23:13:11.750-06:002010-11-16T23:13:11.750-06:00You really make some good points.

I have decided that even though it will cost more I am going to stick to writing out cards (store bought) and posting them and I am getting my kids to do the same. I hate the thought of them not knowing how to send mail in this digital age.<br /><br />Thank you so much for commenting on my Christmas blog. It is so lovely to meet you! I look forward to following your blog-it's lovely!<br /><br />Best wishes,<br />Natasha,Natasha in Ozhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17975487981963489572noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3753791058334220460.post-20680570383958125392010-11-16T22:46:47.289-06:002010-11-16T22:46:47.289-06:00WAY COOL!

I'm not sure if I am ready to go digital. I'll have to think on that one a while,but i cant wait to see what you come up with!Amberhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14764617502943414144noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3753791058334220460.post-26475503525184442782010-11-16T22:01:03.820-06:002010-11-16T22:01:03.820-06:00Kathy~

We are definitely a lot alike:) I think you may be the only kindred spirit (besides my mom:) I know who sends out as many Christmas cards as I do!Lora @ my blessed lifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05579408092425311320noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3753791058334220460.post-61241372548816741792010-11-16T20:08:43.899-06:002010-11-16T20:08:43.899-06:00I swear sometimes that you and I are twins who wer...I swear sometimes that you and I are twins who were separated at birth! I too hand stamped my own cards the first yrs of our marriage - and yes, I colored them and put a lot of time and work into them. But in the past few yrs I've done typed letters with printed pictures - keep it simple as much as I can! In the past few yrs our list has grown to over 100 ppl and it def is getting very expensive. I'm torn, I want to keep mailing them out but don't know about the cost factor. I'll have to think about it ... =)Kathyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15075552196699769073noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3753791058334220460.post-85763353317433403192010-11-16T15:20:01.905-06:002010-11-16T15:20:01.905-06:00Hi Lora!

I do a Christmas letter and try to tone down on the hokey-ness. :-)<br /><br />But you are right -- it costs quite a bit nowadays. I may consider the digital route myself. thanks for the tip!Ellenhttp://bluestockingbelle.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.com
