I saved all my cards for Christmas Day because I had read someone else doing that. It was so worth it!
It was like I spent the day with new friends I haven't known and old friends. I wanted to open the cards everyday, but in the end it was fun to open them all at the same time. (What I should have done is started a thank you post as I opened them....next year). But it was so nice to just sit back and virtually spend some time thinking about so many of the RAOC community all over the world!

Thank you all!

u/justalilpatience I love the magical city scene! It reminded me a little of the tree in NYC. The stickers made me smile too!

u/cdnmtbchick That little black puppy is so cute! Best wishes in the new year to you too!

u/dwrfstr Thank you for the tea! I am excited to try it.

u/TigerLady13 My holiday was actually amazing. I think I like low key by myself!

u/K3Marissa I am trying to make the best of this weird year! Thanks for the stickers!

u/TangyNectarine Summer! That is funny because there was recently a record for a high temperature of 57. It felt like it was summer in December!

u/LeeElla I spent quite a while trying to figure out the card and couldn't figure it out. As I sat down to write this, I figured it out! Now I need to figure out why the lion seems to be crying.

u/theethrowawaynumber8 Nothing but time this season, LOL! I have lots to keep my busy! The stickers will be put to good use in more offers!

u/dyanthis OMG, the foraging and kayaking sounds fun! I enjoy days out in nature! The card was such a sweet picture!

u/skylineprophets Aww, the little hedgehog! Thank you for the stickers!

u/feellikebeingajerk What a fun card! I absolutely love the spices of Christmas baking! And with the weather lately our state is really a hotspot in more than one way!

u/turkishtacos OH NO! I forgot about this card. I have Story 2, Section 1. I meant to post this and spaced it out! I will message you!

u/carleen1210 Great RAOC sticker! I had stickers that matched your card! And the wax seal came out perfect!

u/FallingFeather Weird to think about travel. I don't know when I will feel safe enough to travel! And that is so weird, because I currently do not have any animals so I can just go and travel. I know, it makes no sense. 2021 should be for year to get back to having a dog. Thank you for all fun surprises! Too bad about the fortune fish telling everyone they are fickle! Maybe it is too old of a fish! I def will spend some time checking out the lists!

u/trooperlite What a fun card! I am so glad you liked my city. I do think its a pretty cool city!

u/tashsmash That stamp is cool! It has some interesting symmetry going on! Enjoy your summer!

u/littletinysister the bookmark is super cute and the little narwhal smile is sweet!

u/walkinnature The ducks were amazing! They made me so happy to see them. Its pretty common to see lots of mallards in any body of water around here. I hope to just get out and walk outside every day.

u/ReinaKelsey Oooh, spiked egg nog sounds perfect. Have you hear of Tom and Jerry's. It might be similar to spiked egg nog. They are sooooo good. I have been sipping on homemade hot buttered rum here!
