The Importance of a Card

 

An online friend recently lost her dad. After her period of mourning was over she  was back online and expressed how moved she was to have received so many expressions of sympathy.

 Most of the messages were in the form of emails or posts to her Facebook wall. But the most precious and heart warming messages were those sent by mail either in the form of a card or a letter.

She is an email person and never sent a card to anyone. All of her well wishes or condolences were always sent by email.

She went on to explain that there was something  very special

about having gotten those cards and letters in the mail.

As strange as it sounds there was a form of healing that took place

when she held those cards and letters in her hands.

She came to realize how very special these items are

and told us how ,unlike the emails,

she was going save these cards and letters as a keep sake.

Her hope is to someday take them out and read them again. She knows that they will continue to comfort her

An email is quick and easy...but a card or letter is more difficult. It takes time and thought and conveys to the receiver that you took the time and you thought of them.

As I create my note cards I am thinking of the person who will send it and the person who will receive it.

There is an unspoken bond between me and the sender. How so? In the process of creating I give a piece of myself. I express through my art.

Likewise the sender also gives a piece of themselves. The message they write  reveals the thoughts and the sentiments of their heart.

There are some of us who have lost loved ones . We have only their memory. Sometimes if we're  lucky we have an old tattered

 birthday card or a short note they scribbled and sent to us.
 

It's not just a piece of paper...it's a memory, an object of deep sentimental value.

I firmly believe that the written letter or card speaks to the heart better than any email can. An email can never replace a tangible handwritten note that can create a memory and remains behind long after we are gone.
 

I  would love to hear from you. I am interested in what you have to say

because  it's important to me so please  leave a comment and let me know what you think about the topic of sending cards. 

Looking forward to hearing from you.

Until Next time.

Welcome to My Blog

 

This is my first blog post. I'm not going to give you a list of materials followed by instructions on how to create a card. NO! My blog will be my thoughts about art, life and correspondence .

Drawing and any form of creativity is my air, my food, my drug of choice. It was and still is my passion  and my life. Every day I must find time to draw even if it was just to doddle.

I am not an expert on art. In fact I have really never studied art with the exception of an art history class I took many years ago as well as an adult watercolor class about 2 years later. But just because I never studied art in college does not mean that my talent for creating is any less. I believe that I would have been exposed to more art forms that would have helped me unleash this energy I have over flowing inside of me.

I often wonder what my life would have been like had I pursued art. What would have been the forms of art that I would have mastered.
 It is what it is! Instead of looking back and wondering what if, I want to look ahead and say "I'm ready and here I come."

I spent a life time living my life raising children, earning a living, being a wife just like the rest of the world. Inside of me there was a earning to get back to what I loved the most which was to draw, color  and play just like I did when I was  a child.

I decided not to linit my art to a canvas or an art journal but to create mini forms of art in the form of notecards,greeting cards and stationery sets.

So here I am! I have lived more years than I have left and I am determined to make the love of art and creating  Mynotecards a central part of my life.

I believe in the power of handmade creations and the joy they bring to both the creator and the receiver. 

With my passion for art, I ensure that each card is a labor of love, resulting in a high-quality, exclusive piece that will make your loved ones feel cherished and appreciated.

A handmade card  or hand written note is note just a piece of paper; it's a memory,an object of deep sentimental value.

A tangible handwritten note can create a memory and remains behind long after we are gone

 Art is the music of my heart. It is a song that plays within me. The melody that I play is not heard by one’s ears but rather seen with one’s eyes. My art is the song of my heart, a tune whose notes only I can hear in the stillness of the night and in the midst of the day’s chaos.

Come with me on this journey.
