Thank so much for all the birthday cards, valentines, and others listed here! I was in tears at the post office, and had to compose myself before getting stamps. You all really made my birthday, and February, very special. As promised, I will be responding to each birthday card that lists a return address, but I can be slow. Just a warning! You can see all the cards here, plus cat cameos: https://imgur.com/a/yMYk7f6

u/6Literally6Satan6 Thank you very much for the calico cat birthday card and cute stickers! My day was indeed full of love and joy. I hope you are doing well!

u/krismiss44 Thank you for the gold embossed birthday card and stickers! Love those stickers so much! I did have a wonderful birthday. So nice of you to think of me.

u/BoredValk Thanks for the cute llama birthday card and really nice message! I'm going to take you up on your offer as soon as I get a chance. I hope you are doing well!

u/Ceri_Monster Thanks for the Corgi birthday card! Corgis are so great! I agree that lonely birthdays are especially difficult, and I appreciate your encouraging message.

u/lonelytwatwaffle Thank you so much for the beehive birthday card, tea, and excruciatingly cute stickers. Very nice to hear from you. Hope you are doing well.

u/skylineprophets Thanks for the macaron birthday card and all the cool stickers and note pages. Have been thinking about learning to make macarons, so your card was super timely!

u/CapnCobbler X2 Thank you very much for the trout/sea life birthday card! I really liked the little fish scale charm you included. Great line from that Brautigan poem, too! The whole card is a pretty perfect variation on a theme. Thanks also for the fish tag card! Super cute! Glad you liked the puppy valentine.

u/krebslovesfiesh Thanks for the lovely chatty postcard! Don't think it was a bad move at all to make your first RAoC post a request. So many people on here love sending cards! Also, I'd describe the weight of the paper as impressive, not unnecessary. ;)

u/soxgal Thanks very much for the affirmations birthday card! Thanks also for the stickers! Glad to hear you are getting good weather. The weather here is perfect right now!

u/imeldamail Thanks for the bird/flower/frog birthday card! Very pretty! Love the coloring sheet and stickers. You are officially the first to rickroll me via card, lol.

u/kimmylubs Thank you very much for the hand-drawn pig birthday card! Very cute stickers, too. I did actually have fun-filled birthday, thanks! Hope you are doing well.

u/powelale000 Thanks for the girlfriends postcard! My username is a reference to both pinto beans, pinto horses, and to something else that will remain a mystery! It is hard to believe that RAoC has gotten so huge. It had just hit 20,000 when I joined...

u/wafflish Thank you very much for the cake-themed birthday card! I really liked the stickers and the washi you used. I use that same washi on birthday cards, actually. Great minds think alike!

u/lou_lee42 Thanks for the pig birthday card! My birthday cake did not have frosting actually, but if it had, I probably really would have eaten it first. :P Feeling like making cupcakes piled high with buttercream now! Cheers!

u/shady-lady68 Thank you very much for the cute chocolate valentine! Maple creams are pretty, good, it's true. Hope you had a very happy Valentine's Day, and hope you are doing well!

u/negsan-ka Thank you for the party hat birthday card! The stickers and washi you used are extremely beautiful and complement each other very well. I did have a lot of cake on my birthday, so it was a pretty good day!

u/ksbuni Thanks for the flamingo for friendship birthday card! Really love the washi you used. Can really use some love and good vibes, so thanks for sending both!

u/CrochetCatsCoffee Thanks for the owl birthday card! Fun fact: Owls actually hate me! ;P They want to eat my chickens and I won't let them! It is so, so nice of you to offer a cake. I bet they have great cakes where you are.

u/writeen Thanks for the "Calm Waters" birthday card! It is truly beautiful. I did not have tapas on my birthday, sadly. And I don't know martial arts, so no bankers were kung fu'ed. Sad times!

u/SunnyBumBebe X2 Thanks so much for the birthday card and valentine! Thanks for the cat magnet, too! I actually have many animals and like both dogs and cats, so you can't go wrong. Thanks for your kind words! Cheers!

u/LeeElla Thanks very much for the fairy birthday postcard! Glad you liked the New Year card, and I'm glad to hear it was one of the first you received! You will be hearing about my birthday soon. ;)

u/talkingroses Thank you for the dog and cat birthday card! Thanks for the washi samples and extremely cute dog and cat stickers, too! I did have a very happy birthday, so thank you for sending happy wishes!

u/IllegalCrow Thank you for the golden retriever and monarch birthday card! The card's sentiment is extremely kind. Your card made me very happy, so just keep being yourself, too. Thanks again!

u/soft_distortion Thank you very much for the cat birthday card! Great scratch n' sniff stickers, too. So coconuty! And such cute washi! I did treat myself, as a matter of fact. It was a pretty good day! Cheers!

u/2dogsintheyard X2 Thank you very much for the two birthday photo cards! You are very talented! I really love both the monarch butterfly and the Clydesdales. Monarchs spend summers with you, and winters near me, by the way.

u/velocityoflove Thanks for the cheesy shark and Luigi valentines and Luigi sticker! Really like the sea green note card and envelope. The wax seal is a nice touch, too. Really hope you are doing well! Cheers!

u/ckralo2 Thank you for the embossed rose birthday card and cupcake and bunny stickers. They almost look handmade--did you make them yourself? Thanks for celebrating with me in spirit! Very kind!

u/DrFroggie Thanks for the bear on a bicycle birthday card and the succulent, goldfish, and gem stickers! Thanks also for the encouraging message. I did take some time for yourself. Be sure to make time for yourself, too!

u/Xarama Thank you for the butterfly and tulip birthday card! Love the butterfly sticker! I did have a birthday filled with cards, and I think I will remember them very fondly for years! Hope you are well!

u/Ankaiza Thanks so much for the hand drawn card! So impressed! You must have put a lot of time into drawing all my favorite things, and I really, really loved the cute puppy with the cake on its head. Cheers!

u/atlanticsun219 Thank you very much for the gift tag birthday card! Really love the bright colors. I did have a great day, and also did take some time for self-care. Hope you are taking time for self-care, too!
