Have mine all constructed. Have the addresses and inside greetings printed on labels, and actually got 30 cards into envelopes and ready to go to the post office with me tomorrow.

I shipped out the last ones on the list! I’ve been working on the cards for several months knowing how busy I’ll be at the end of the year with work. It was very relaxing to just sit and craft while binge watching/listening to something. This is something I look forward to every year!

My internationals are all mailed. I hope they arrive. DH took them and they all cost the same amount. I thought the postage would vary based on country? I'm going to sign and put the rest in envelopes this weekend to mail right after Thanksgiving!
I've received 2 so far and love them both! Participating in this makes me so happy!

Global letters are all the same price! Whether you’re mailing just across the border or half way around the world. It’s a bit crazy, but convenient. The global forever stamps are round and have a few very cool designs.

I’ve taken care of the internationals on the list because who knows how long they’ll take?! I’m guessing between 3 and 5 weeks. Let’s hope so. I’ll get onto the domestic cards soon. I had grand plans, but I ran out of steam this year. I’m using some digital printables instead of crafting or designing my own digital painting, but I know you guys don’t judge. And I’m pretty happy with how they’ve turned out so far. Keep it simple, get it done! Conquering my perfectionism.

I sent my nephew a card in UK a few weeks ago. It took a week from the US. We were both surprised.

I have finished about 35 cards, so will mail out internationals tomorrow. Loving getting these done and forcing myself to craft. It's been a long year with no mojo.

I've gotten 2 cards done - just 2. Due to DH's illness, I'm not going to be able to get everyone a card.

I did a little photo session this weekend and got cards ordered. They should arrive in about a week, and I'm ready to ship them out. You're all getting holiday pictures of our dogs decked out in Christmas attire.

I can do it. I’ll see if Jessica can mail it out. I just sent Jessica two label files to distribute - Word and PDF format. I standardized a couple addresses (abbreviations for states/provinces) and sorted by country and then last name, but otherwise it was the same info included this evening. Thank you! I'm going to try and print it out tomorrow!

Quoting myself to mark the time - I have had 2 international cards arrive in the UK and Portugal. They weren't on the Pea list, but I sent them out at the same time as my pea cards, so hopefully this means people will be getting them early rather than late.

I need help! I am trying to print the labels and it is not working!! I am using Avery 18160 labels which are the same as the 8160 and 5160 labels but the addresses aren't printing on the labels properly! I have no idea why. I usually just open the file and print it. I am using the labels that @gemini_jen created for us. I am so frustrated with computers right now. I had issues earlier with printing out some digital images and I am just over technology today LOL! Any one have any idea whay I am doing wrong?

I mailed the internationals last week and have sent some out almost every day starting last Wednesday.
Thanks to the P who suggested leaving my stamp order with a check in the mailbox for the mailman. Makes life so much easier!

I have all my cards ready to go - stamps on, addressed - but I think I'll wait until Monday to mail them. I ended up making 8 different designs. It was so much fun. I haven't paper crafted in over a year so it was lovely to get back to it. I am receiving a few cards every day in the mail!!!

I sent out 40 cards last night so far. About 5 people have a story written in their cards about the mis adventures in doing holiday cards. I ran out of my 25 cent stamps to add to my postage to send the USA cards . Will stop tonite and get more.
Next batch and hopefully all the cards will go out Monday. I have received quite a few already myself . I have chosen not to open any yet until after Dec 1.
I hope everyone has a great Christmas and holiday season.
