It's a shame people don't send more mail, a card is the quickest way to brighten someone's day, especially when it's a cute one. The one you sent me at Christmas was so lovely and this one is just fabulous, too! Julie is obviously very talented.<br />xox,<br />CeeCeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08822990898186192908noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3551650242422472428.post-29469250010944486652014-01-23T12:26:18.514-05:002014-01-23T12:26:18.514-05:00There really isn't a way to equate the feeling...There really isn't a way to equate the feeling of a good ole fashioned hand written card or letter in the mail.
