Decorations down…. thank you notes sent… the holidays are over.
Now it is another New Year. A time for renewal, hope, dreams, clean slates, reflections on the past, goals for the future.
For the first time, I “mass produced” a batch of cards. I had many thank yous I wanted to send in appreciation for wonderful friends and family – good times spent together, generous and meaningful gifts exchanged, love and appreciation expressed.
I designed a card I liked that I thought would be somewhat easy to duplicate 15 or 20 times. I’m happy with how they turned out, but the important part was the handwritten message inside – a message of appreciation and gratitude. I love sending thank you notes. They are probably my favorite…. Maybe because they are becoming such a lost art and etiquette. Mostly because it is an opportunity to let the recipient know how thankful I am to have them in my life.
Thank YOU my lifeinbetween.me blog friends! I am thankful to have you in my life.
Cheers & Thankful Hugs,
Jodi



and thank you Jodi 😊

Those Thank You cards are so elegant! I’m sure the loved ones you send them to will just love them! I believe in sending out thank you notes. I know it is a “dying” thing. I still send out thank you cards to my family (children and grandchildren) and they still send them to me. It warms my heart that my grandchildren have learned the importance of Thank You cards. I hope they always remember that even long after I am gone. Good Morning Jodi! I am up at 4:00 am this morning. LOL! Have a wonderful day. ((Hugs!!)) xo

Thanks, Laurie. I rarely “mass produce,” but needed to in order to get thank you’s out timely! And it was kind of fun to do I found – surprisingly! Maybe I’ll work on them all year this year and stash away. Can ALWAYS use thank yous! 🙂
