It's not even my birthday yet, but I am blown away by the number of cards I have already received. My mailbox was filled multiple days in a row! I'm especially touched by people who just had my address on hand still and thought to send me a birthday card. It's gonna take a while to get to all the thank yous. Thank you so much!

u/MaeveTheBrave Thank you for the very colorful "Happy Birthday" card! I love how you decorated the inside with stickers! I love the little unicorn. Thanks for the stickers for me, too. The star with little stars in it is my fave

u/alluu3 Thank you for the black balloon "Happy Birthday" card! I love the contrast of the white and colored letters on the black background. Your little ghost joke was so cute. I might be stealing that :)

u/heymorganm Thank you for the "kitten city" card and for wishing me a "purr-fest birthday!" I love all the cats! The little string of flags you made from the washi tape that matched the washi on the envelope is so cute and I love the washi pattern, too.

u/tigerlady13 Thank you for the black birthday card with the candles on it! I love the little gifts washi you used to decorate the inside. Thank you also for the flower sticker, bonus postcard, and ephemera, and your sweet message

u/melhen16 Thank you for the handmade washi birthday card! The color combos with all the pinks is lovely. Thank you also for the absolute explosion of kawaii stickers! I think my favorite is the little dog wearing a beret and holding a plate of pancakes

u/hexagonalrainbow Thank you for the "Crap Chronicles" postcard! It's so creepy; I love it! I am always happy to take weird cards off your hands lol. Thanks also for the bonus nacho postcard and one of your snail guy stickers :)

u/wetsocksinyourbutt Thank you for the super cute raccoon birthday card! I saw a raccoon the other night when I was leaving work and I had a moment of thinking "omg I forgot these are real animals that just live among us!" It was a little magical. I love their little people hands. Thank you for the sweet note, ephemera, pop rocks, and tea (which sounds so delicious after I translated it and realized it was "strawberry cheesecake tea" and not just "cheese tea" lol).

u/travel4me22 Thank you for the birthday card with the adorable birthday hat! Love the screaming cat on the envelope. I always enjoy the 3D elements on your cards! When I first started in RAOC, you sent me a card with blue hydrangeas on it and it was so intricate and gorgeous and texturally amazing! One of my favorite cards of all time

u/birdiebennett You have outdone yourself, my friend! This envelope was so thick, it felt like receiving a full legal brief. The card is amazing; I love the cats and I love the 3D fuzzy balls on their party hats and all the different cats on the envelope. All the thoughtful bonus items are so wonderful. These skeleton and flower stickers?? GORGEOUS. This bonus skeleton card and fortune teller postcard? AMAZING. These shiny Halloween stickers and spooky cutouts? SO COOL. Is it Halloween yet? I can't thank you enough, you did an amazing job :)
