Christmas Cards

 Do you still send Chris6tmas cards?  We may be old fashioned, but we still send out Christmas cards every year.  It provides a way to stay in touch with friends and relatives you hardly ever see - or in our case that we never see!  It always seems like a personal way to put some meaning into the holiday season.

This is the card I'm using this year.  It's by an indigenous artist, Alanah Morningstar Jewell, in her 'Winter Rest' series.  I purchased these from Ontario Nature, an organization that has provided a Christmas card for sale as long as I can remember.  I joined while I was still in high school, and now I'm a Life Member.

And a Happy Thanksgiving to me American readers!

  5. I send over 20 cards every year. They might arrive at Easter, but I'll still be mailing them.

  6. I do too. Even from Arizona! However, not sure if it is worth the cost this year with the strike on.

  9. Beautiful card. And thank you for the Thanksgiving wishes, we all have a lot to be thankful for -- some of us for every day we can still walk upon the earth and marvel at its wonders.
