Son K brought these seasonal treats from his workplace recently, it's fun everywhere at this time of year! I am happy to say I got some Christmas shopping done yesterday and have started on my Christmas cards. After doing cards for so many years what's happening now is that my friends' kids have moved out in some cases and it's difficult to decide what to put on their family cards. Some of the kids are even living with partners. A couple of people have changed addresses and haven't bothered to let people exactly know what their new addresses are. I buy one international stamp for $2.50 every year to send to an aunt living abroad. Of course, I lost it and had to buy another one. It may show up at some point. It was the tiniest stamp too.

Christmas is soon here! I don't send cards anymore, but perhaps I should...
We stopped sending cards a few years back. Sorry you misplaced the expensive stamp.
Those sugar canes look great. I don't send out cards anymore, my folk are all far away, and it is just too costly. Hugs, Valerie
I send my cards late and generally only to those that also send cards.
I have the same problem with cards. And now that both my daughters have moved out, it is tricky for me sending cards out and for people sending cards to us. I used to sign as family and people who send 'to family'. Now we're all confused. LOL...
Only one stamp? Well, I;d say you are lucky then! :)
My wife got an Airmail (that's at least what we call it here in the united states) to send her friend (who's from Minnesota and living in Japan) a Christmas card.
The photo is lovely. How sweet of you send Christmas cards out. I never did get in the habit...
It is the time of year. Exciting and lots of fun, but sometimes a little crazy too. Hope the stamp shows up. You could use it in your art.:) Hugs-Erika

Those candy canes are always popular - and colourful too!
I have got my cards but not written any yet, I may start this weekend!
Postage can work out quite expensive can't it ...
All the best Jan
