I'm humbled and thrilled by the amount of mail I've received this year - thank you everyone for your birthday wishes!

u/on1oman1ac Thank you for your tiger-donut-gumball machine postcard! You always have the most amazing card subjects! Was this a card you got from Taiwan? I definitely was surrounded by lovely food, tea and people for my birthday so your wishes for me came true <3

u/CaptivatingApple thank you for your Koalas of Australia card, imagining a human scream coming out of them is certainly surprising! Its gotten a bit cooler and I hope you're enjoying the rainier weather.

u/Sable__ Thank you for your nature themed card with the lovely gold and orange themed washi and stickers on the writing side - loved that you even coordinated the colours of the writing ink and stamps used!

u/mtlbigdawg thank you for your card combining two of my animal loves - a lynx and raven!! Loved the full spread with the message when I opened it - it being custom printed for me meant a lot :)

u/thecaledonianrose Thank you for your wonderful words of wisdom for my special day! I do struggle with sweating the small stuff a lot, so these will be words to remember.

/u/daeneryswon Thank you for your handmade card using all my favourite colours of blue, teal, and silver, and the embossing was a lovely touch!

u/ghostchild25 Thank you for the absolutely stickerbombed card of a baby! It was such a bright, happy and nostalgic surprise when I opened it!

u/doppiedoodle Thank you for your grey textured card with the book ink stamp and blue and gold washi! I enjoyed that you made a specifically non birthday card for me :)

u/robusto_esplendido thank you for your Children's Art Card - it sounds like the thrift shop you got it from does such meaningful work, and I'm glad it was rewarding for you :)

/u/ninajyang Thank you for your birthday balloons card with matching envelope in my favourite colour! Eating amazing food with friends and family is my favourite part about the birthday occasion for sure.

u/canameow (x2) Thank you for your Chihuly Garden and Glass and the cat pouring tea card - the number of tea stickers you managed to include are utterly delightful! I did enjoy my low key birthday - definitely want to squeeze in some time with nature and a stationary store soon PS. Love the lil lucky day unicorn ink stamp on the envelope too!

u/zenshark33 (x2) Thank you for your flying dino card and cat riding dinosaur with a backdrop of exploding volcanos card- these are so epic and entertaining as always!! Thanks for the affirming dinosaur washi as well <3

u/snuffles125 (x2) thank you for your axolotls and glittery crowned robin card - both are so cute! I really appreciate the address labels and botanical washi too :)

u/alluu3 (x3) Thank you for your birthday wishes, cheesy joke (made me smile!) and the San Fransisco cards!

u/FeistyBlizzard Thank you for the long distance celebration via popsicle card and stickers! Writing all these thank yous definitely have me feeling surrounded by great company :D

u/todayisfab Thank you for your book card and bird stickers! To another year around the sun indeed!

u/birdiebennett Thank you for your card with the lion peeking from the bushes shouting "Oh Hi There!" - such fun! You have such lovely lettering on Happy Birthday in my favourite colour too :) Thanks for the animal stickers!

u/littlemermaidxx Thank you for your golden hearts card with one teal heart, love it! The alpaca with cacti stickers were so cute too :D

/u/56thorns (x4) Thank you for showering me with cards on my birthday, with everything from US stamp history, puffins, a cheetah and garden window!

/u/monetmonkey Thank you for your For the Love of Tea loupaper card! I especially loved the blue and gold foiled teapot and teacup washi on the envelope - do you recall where you got it from?

u/silvertlc Thank you for your birthday card, I never knew there was happy birthday shaped confetti! Appreciate the stickers as well, especially the corgi!

u/Peonynote Thank you for your happy birthday card full of birds on cacti! Enjoyed the owl and woodpecker ink stamps within as well.

/u/batcaved (x2) Thank you for your two quote cards, so thoughtfully selected and written as always, these always have a special space in my collection. The address calligraphy as always, is beautiful, which is all the more hilarious that singpost has managed to postmark this upside down - ie the bottom left of the envelope, missing the stamp entirely.

u/mentlegens I literally gasped when I saw your handmade card - oh my gosh, I love the lil corvid having a relaxing soak in a ravenclaw coloured cup of tea!!! Wow you have such artistic skill. I recognise the chopstickroad memo art inside too - delightful :D Every sticker you sent was up my alley too, but my favourite was the warmly dressed fox cradling the teacup in their paws <3

u/StephanieTay (x10) A thousand thank yous for your awesome generosity and showering me with not one, but three envelopes of goodies, from cards, to tea, to stickers and very lovely choices of Malaysian stamps, they were all such a delight to look through with charming and unique designs. You've more than made my day with everything, and definitely made a happy memory for me with all you sent!!! Thank you so much again.
