Happy Leap Day!

 It only comes around once every four years and it only makes the year a little bit more exciting. As Phil said in Modern Family, it is like having an extra day within the year. I spent mine at home but I had a blast working on an exciting writing project and sending out postcards to friends abroad. 

However, I came across one fun way of celebrating this year's Leap Day. And it's literally through leaping! At the Flickr Blog, shutterbugs from all over the world participated in doing jump shots just to testify to the fun extra day we all get for 2012.

 Let's all jump for joy today.  

Valentine's Day.

Frankly, I am not a big fan of the mushy holiday. Rather, I am a big fan of hot pink envelopes and handwritten love letters. Valentine's Day is the only day during the entire year when sending out cards and letters is reasonable and legit. 

Here are the postcards I made for the kids at Send Kids the World. I've grown fond of sending them cards and notes knowing that this simple gesture brings them a smile. Last Christmas, I was searching the net of a pen pal for the holidays as it was my first Christmas alone and away from my family. So I came across Send Kids the World and Post Pals, two sites dedicated to bringing the world to these loving kids, one mail at a time.

Happy Birth-DAVE to you.

He is the number one fan of all my dreams and ambitions yet he is also my most dreaded critic. Happy birth-DAVE to you!

I did a little spin on the words for the greeting. Using my rubber letter stamps, I labelled his presents, cards, and even made a festive treat for our office to celebrate the day. Dave was surprised when he opened the door to the office and found the colorful surprise hanging over his corner. Yay!
