A magazine I read recently polled their readers to find out if handwritten thank notes are still de rigueur, or if it’s ok to just send email thank yous. \u00a0The results were fairly evenly split. \u00a0Some thought email thank yous were tacky, others argued that at least some<\/em> sort of thank you was sent.<\/p>\n

I like sending and receiving personal thank you notes. \u00a0It’s a bit of work, but hey, somebody took the time and thought enough of me to purchase a gift or do a kindness, so it seems like the least I can do.<\/p>\n

Anyhow, I didn’t have enough cards on hand, and had no idea what I was going to make or do, and therefore was putting off sending my Christmas thank yous this year when I saw this video<\/a> by Jennifer McGuire. \u00a0(Isn’t she the best<\/em>\u00a0teacher?)<\/p>\n

I may have mentioned it before, but I am a sucker for cool techniques. Jenn inspired me to immediately go make my own set of cards \u00a0with trendy chevron borders.<\/p>\n
