  4. I am mailing this card to my Dad. I just left after a 3 week visit. We live on opposite coasts, and I think he will enjoy the surprise in his mail box.

  5. Thank you for the beautiful colour inspiration and sketch. Your DT samples are gorgeous. I went with the colours for my card. This card will be mailed tomorrow to my friend Taunya on the occasion of her blogging anniversary but mainly to provide some encouragement as she's been feeling overwhelmed lately. The card is sealed, and the envelope is addressed and waiting by the door, ready to be taken to the post office, which is closed on the weekend or I would have already mailed it.

  6. I wanted to send a story I wrote to a friend, so I made my card for her. I made it narrow enough to fit in a business envelope, but I was still able to make the sketch work! Thanks for the challenge!

  7. I will be sneaking this card in my husbands lunch box tomorrow. I have been super bad this year and didn't give a card to him on his birthday or on our anniversary so this one is a perfect Love You card...

  10. Hi, my card is going to my friend Margaret cos lately we just don't seem to get to talk. I think this will be a nice surprise and much more fun than an email. I really enjoy that you ask people to say where they are sending their card and why. I read all the comments. Sometimes I get ideas or reminders of someone in a similar situation that could do with a little happy mail. It's a pity not everyone is taking the time to leave a comment. I think this really makes your challenge unique and special. I am loving sharing the joy. Thank you. Hugz
