I love stationery. I love monogrammed flat notes. I love embossed folded notes.  I love personalized notes that come in lined envelopes.  I have several boxes of note cards that I keep in rotation.

If I need to send a thank you, I use these:

If I want to let someone know I’m thinking of them, I use these:

I love, love, love Design-her Gal!  My first set of calling cards came from there and I couldn’t give them away fast enough.  It’s fun designing a mini avatar that looks just like me.

For those you who received one of those, I hope you kept it.  It’s going to be a collector’s item one day.

Don’t they just make you want to write someone a note?  I might have to tell Santa to stuff these in my stocking. And speaking of the fat man and his busiest night of the year,  there are holiday cards, too.

 So tell me, am I the last of a dying breed? Is the art of letter writing and note card sending dead?  Why don’t you get yourself some new stationery to drop me a few lines and tell me what you think.
