Sincerely,

Remember when people used pens and paper to send messages? Well, the holidays bring Christmas/Hanukkah/NewYears (what have you) cards, and with all the holiday gifting comes thoughtful thank-you notes for those of you who have been lost in the information age. I have always loved sending cards and notes to friends and loved ones, and I especially love receiving them. A heartfelt written note or card means so much more than the emails, texts or even love faxes of our generation. A dear friend has always had incredible taste in stationary (among many other things) and I have tried to take notes from her. Here are a few of my picks filled with holiday cheer, and some that can be used for everyday dankes! Now get to writing, and don't forget the x's and o's.
