Sorry about the photography of this tall card...they are always a photo challenge for me. This card went postal in July just like yesterday's...it went to Ivy over at My Asian Heritage. I wanted to highlight the Ginger Blossoms dp and what better way than a tall card?I've noticed a trend in people talking about all the cards we make...just sitting...not going postal. I typically make cards with someone specifically in mind but I certainly have a pile just waiting to go out snail mail. What do you all do with the cards waiting to go to a new home?
Happy Thursday!!!!

I have sent cards to soldiers, and I have been a chemo angel. Those are two ways to use cards.
Happy Thursday, Amy
As a side note about going postal...one of my cards I made for my friend to celebrate out trip to the coast in July...I made it a month out and promptly mailed it...it arrived 6 weeks later...now that was a distance of 250 miles...I could have walked it to her!
What's up with that?
I do the same, make cards for someone particular in mind but have a hard time to part with them =( but i sure need to send them out =)
I made very little to send out. I have a small family and my friends are limited too.
I'm thinking of selling them. Dunno, that Etsy thing. But not sure. Or craft fairs closer to the holidays. But I live in a small town, not sure if people will want to fork out $3.50-$4/card. It's like gas money right there.
I've donated some too but I make a lot as you know just because it's fun.
I sell a lot of my cards so they go to my box at work or into boxes that I'll take to the two stores that sell them - but I also stand some on my hutch for a while as I like to look at them right after I've made them!! and I also keep some home so I can actually send friends and family hand made cards when I need them!
