I’ve received a bunch of cute e-cards from various companies, many of them very cute.
Today I received a beautiful paper card from one of our Homemakers writers; the (recycled-paper, soy-ink) card has a plantable paper decoration on it that promises to sprout wild flowers, including some that are native to Canada, such as Sweet William, Columbine and Black-Eyed Susan.

I use e-cards from Jacquie Lawson for about half my list. I can still write a message as long as I want. This year I will send a “warning” message that such a card is about to arrive so that people don’t delete my card thinking it is spam.

I think it’s because cards mean “I took the time to think of you” that a tree-unfriendly, snail-mailed card seems more satisfying (for we dinosaurs). And that’s even though I *know * that choosing an ecard takes just as much care and thought. It’s an odd phenomenon!
