I get so stressed-out by the perceived necessity to send out Christmas cards (which I almost never succeed in doing) that I have never even considered the concept of New Years cards. This post, however, has changed my mind. Maybe next year, instead of stressing over the Christmas cards I’m destined never to send, I’ll just focus on a nice, clean, refreshing New Year’s card. Thanks!

we try to do new years cards each year but this time around the flu knocked us out so ours are late. We are actually still waiting for the to arrive!

I also thought it was interesting how subdued and nuetral the Japanese cards are compared to their global counterparts, which tend to be flashy and loud.
