Squeals! An enveloped filled with flowers and cacti! Not actual flowers and cacti! Notecards, of course!
One of my new “flower sisters,” Phyllis R, sent them. When she asked for my address a week or so ago, I thought she was planning to drop a postcard in the mail. I didn’t expect an envelope full of her beautiful photo notecards, so you can imagine my glee! If you’d like to see the full photos, just click the image above to access the Flickr album. [I even added a card Phyllis sent for Easter].
Remember the last post when I talked about how easy-peasy it is to make postcards from your own tree photos? Well, guess what. It’s that easy to make postcards or notecards from any of your photos.
Anyway—Phyllis’ package gave me an idea for a weekend giveaway! A snail mail kit!
I will randomly select someone who comments below and send her/him/them a mini mail kit consisting of a set of notecards, postcards, postage stamps (if in the USA), and a few tuck-ins and/or stickers. My goal is to unload some of my excess stash. Kidding…maybe. 😉 Seriously, I want to encourage you to send more snail mail because personal mail equals connection, and we need connection now more than ever!
Soo…don’t be shy. If you have nothing to say, simply type “snail mail” in the comments section, and you just might be the lucky winner.
The giveaway ends Monday, June 13 at 11:59 p.m. (Central). The winner will be announced Wednesday, June 15.
Good luck!

Sorry. That last comment should have said, “A lost and wonderful firm of communication.”

Whether sending notes, letters, or postcards, it is a meaningful way of communicating that has gotten lost in the technology age

I love your idea! I was thinking to send some younger cousins stamps, paper and a pen in hopes that they’d write back, we’ll see how it goes.
