u/hippo-party - this final valentine of the year was absolutely my best valentine of them all. gorgeous. your duck is so cute, and the pink sparkly paper, and the 3D raised pieces and the letter stamps, i just love it all and am very grateful. thanks for sharing your creativity. i aspire to make cards this organized and visually pleasing! i got a paper cutter for christmas which has been helping things look sharper for sure.

u/yetanotherblankface - “the best snacks are the ones stolen from someone else. Little bites of love” hee, that is so cute, thank you for the message that i couldn’t resist sharing here. i think i prompted you with a favorite snack comment. i'm happy to have received a creative answer.

u/Bree867 - the meta “postal” themed exchange was so fun. thank you for sending me the lou paper postcard! i used these exact stickers on my postal themed send, haha. super cute eh?

u/Bookworm02 x2 - your puns were great, thanks for the puntastic energy. i can imagine it would be pretty hard to come up with many all in a row. i especially think the postcard depicting krishna’s victory over the snake demon agha is super cool. i think snakes are powerful and feminine and just badass. once i shared this thought with my mom and she displayed such disgust with me. HA.

u/eloquentbrowngreen - thank you for the art museum postcard. i was sure the art was picasso but i learned that it was actually a work of george braque, a name i’m really not familiar with and i’m kinda an art history nerd. fun!

u/KimKimMRW - ok gorrrrgeous card alert, i love it! Thanks for your meta “postal” themed exchange creation. You wrote “i’m not much of a handmade card maker” but my friend i beg to differ. This really pleased me. Also the stickers were all fab so extra thanks for those. keep on keeping on. :)

u/chippydoodoo - omg you are THE SWEETEST thank you for sending a re-do of the getting to know you swap!! you are so proactive. :) when i grabbed the envelope from the mailbox, i thought for sure it was the original lost one, because the back had a very clear boot print on it and was pretty dirty 😂 but everything made it in one piece and i truly enjoyed reading your answers. maybe your original send WAS on the mail truck that fell in the river. oh and the mardi gras medallion thing is super cool, as are the stickers and bits, and the fruit patterned card made me smile. i'd love to write to you again if you don't mind!

u/lonelytwatwaffle - dear jackson klein😼 i do declare you have very nice taste in stickers. I hope you are staying cool in the heat, i can’t believe you get 80 degree temps in early march. i’m jealous. You leave your mom alone and let her have the best time galivanting!

u/CaptivatingApple - ooo thank you for this informative postcard about Salem, MA. you are so right, that is wild how much the street scene looks like a street of today even though it is a photo from 100 years ago. i really like historic homes like the ones picture. nice selection for me, i appreciate your thoughtfulness!
