I still remember when Facebook Chat was introduced and I thought, "I'll never use this." Fast forward to 2015, and that's the way most of my friends and I connect, even more than texting.
I was recently sent 7 cards by Hallmark Canada to participate in the Love, Hallmark 7 Card Challenge. Figuring out who to send the beautiful cards to was easy, in a world where everyone texts for an address to put in their GPS, it was finding out where to mail the cards that proved difficult.
The 7 cards came from the following collections:
Hallmark Signature Collection: Sending a note to show someone you care never goes out of style! Spread the love to family and friends and a select the card that suits them best. Signature Collection cards are available from $4.99 - $8.99 each.
Hallmark Shoebox: Know someone that needs a pick-me-up? Share the love by sending friends and family their daily dose of funny with Hallmark’s assortment of Shoebox greeting cards. Shoebox cards range from $2.99-$3.49 each.
Hallmark Gallery: The Gallery collection is a line of beautiful blank cards, allowing you to personalize each message. They can be sent for a special occasion or just to say hello. Gallery cards are available for $3.99 each.
I sent most of my cards out last week and have been receiving texts and Facebook messages of thanks. As I was writing in the cards, it really did feel good to show some of the most important people in my life they are worth my time, effort and a couple of stamps.
One lucky YYZ Bambina reader will also take the Love, Hallmark 7 Card Challenge! Enter via the Rafflecopter below by September 20th to receive 7 unique cards to send to the important people in your life.
