I got a late bundle of cards today, too. My sister hadnโt picked up the mail in a week. papercrafteradvocate, your card is here! Thank you! All the rest were from Canada or overseas. cycworker, yours arrived. basket1lady, yours too (and I LOLโd ... I have that 2peas die, too ... I might copy your Christmas card next year if you donโt object). Those are the ones I remember people asking about. I think the others were from Canada but I donโt have them in front of me ATM. Iโm still dribbling out cards one or two at a time.  So sorry! oh, jameynz, yours arrived, too (postmarked December 1).  Thank you all! |

I know you don't. I am just a believer that we're meant to learn from crappy things that happened. Your outgoing President has reminded me to not take for granted respecting diversity, honouring people's traditions/heritage/beliefs . |

Hi Girls I've asked for this thread to be un-pinned, so hopefully that will happen in the near-ish future.ย If youโd like to save this thread to refer back to next year, please make sure to bookmark it.ย Thanks so much to everyone who participated. Making cards this fall, and receiving them from you in December was a bright spot to the end of 2020! |

I received 3 more cards this week.
Heather from Ohio
papercrafter adovcate from Ohio
And fellow Canadian cycworker
They may have taken longer to get to me but I got them! Though Cycworker, not sure what route yours was taking! I can't read the post date because it looks like it was done twice. Weird. Though I know you were posting here awhile back how you were worried if they'd get to their destinations.

I want to apologize to you all for not getting my cards out. Some things happened that took my time and energy and unfortunately a small issues around 1 of the things became a bogger issue again on Tuesday. We love all the cards and messages and my DD took a few to pin in her room (some of the animals ones!). You brightened my day and made me smile. And I am forever grateful for that. The last 2 months have sucked, a lot. But hopefully one of the issues will no longer be an issue now!

papercrafteradvocate Thank you so much for going the extra mile and re-mailing the card that didn't go through to me the first time! There is something very sweet about receiving a holiday card in March - such a dreary time in the Northeast. I don't know why it didn't get to the destination the first time, as you addressed it perfectly, but I guess the post office had other plans. Anyway - I loved it and was thinking it looks like a lovely Starbucks Christmas peppermint hot chocolate. Thank you!
