u/seriouswalking - my official holiday exchange card! thank you so much, it's a really beautiful card and i appreciate the extras and the santa hat food stickers :) i'm so glad you have good memories to cozy up with - similar here - i wish my extended family got together more regularly like the old days so i have to rely on memories for now

u/random_ness - thank the lord you explained this satellite dish holiday themed postcard because i was squinting at it like "what is even happening? what IS that round thing in the middle?" it's a pretty poor illustration of a satellite dish covered in snow lolol. absolutely bizarre, right up my alley, thank you so much :D and loved the shiny silver holiday washi too

u/melhen16 - thank you so much for the cute kids illustration card. loved the vintage holiday stamps (as always!)

u/powelale000 - ahh your handmade alien card makes me happy whenever i look at it. the little alien is so cute! thanks for sharing about the book you ae reading, i think it's a good exercise to think about worlds other than our own

u/relax455 x 2 - thanks for the underwater meta card with your illustration, very cool. that's funny about your neighbor having the mega lights up - you enjoy riding that wave and not having to put any up lol! thanks for the extra goat postcards i will share with a friend

u/PinkPengin - whaaaaat this card is SO COOL, did you make it? it's a thank you card with brown wood texture background paper and then an embossed glittery leaf and some gold shimmery framing. it's very very nice and i'm so glad your son enjoyed his mail, that's awesome. <3 meow to the kitties

u/doggotoast - oh cute, this little handmade card is so sweet. did you make a lot of them for your offer? it looks like the kind of thing that would be fun to make a ton of - a few papers here, a few stickers there :D good luck eating all the holiday foods! hah

u/tinawebmom - thank you for the handmade holiday card, it's so colorful and happy <3

u/likablelobster - thank you for this lovely reading and books themed postcard, it is much appreciated! reading has been such a comfort to me, over the past two years especially, and i loved hearing that you went on a book buying trip. i just finished "big swiss" which was a hilarious and unique novel!

u/comingtogetyoubabs - thanks for the lovely witchy fox postcard, it's great and unique! cool stamps too <3

u/dumbbitchjuice14_ - thanks for the fa la la llama card covered in amazing winter stickers inside and containing more amazing stickers for me to use. the pipsticks pink/orange/yellow suns might be the coolest stickers i've seen in ages - i am going to have a hard time using those. you did a great job selecting!

u/mynameiscandycain - i love this sea birds card and your intro sentence "i'm not sure how often you interact with sea birds" lol that could really lead anywhere :D i actually grew up on a great lake so i am very familiar with seagull habits. also, to your story about french fry stealing, this is the best washi tape i have ever seen and i can't bring myself to buy it cuz shipping from australia to the states is ABSURD but look at how glorious it is! i've wanted it for many years!
