Do we wait until we receive all of our cards? I made individual cards but I know some people made a batch. I don’t want to spoil any surprises for anyone. Do we just use the blur feature?
I know some cards will take longer to receive than others.
I can’t wait to start decorating with my cards!

You’re very welcome! I took a class recently to learn how to use a calligraphy pen and ink to make holiday designs - this was a branching off of the technique we learned. Of course I had to buy new supplies (inks, etc) - such a hardship!

I got a lovely card today from @Tapestry - just the thing to brighten up this dreary, drizzly, frigid day! She included some fun extras too. Thanks Jen!!

I received cards from @AIMR, @Immaculata and @wittychild today.
All are so beautiful and were directly integrated into my holiday decorations.
From Immaculata
From wittychild
From AIMR
@AIMR wrote happy holidays in German on the back of the envelope. And @Immaculata’s message was completely in German. That really made my day! Thanks to both of you it’s so personal!

It’s nice to be able to practice German! I had five years of German in school, I read Kafka and Goethe, and now I can barely put together a card. I can still understand spoken / written German but it’s more difficult to write or speak it myself.
Also, in my brain Christmas is forever associated with German Christmas markets and with this record: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4PsXV3X1N-k In the older generation, German music and TV shows were very popular.
