Take a minute to smell the flowers when you send this special card to someone this Summer. Let them admire the beautiful cherry blossoms and soft colors with the simple words of encouragement. Also, it’s always special when you let them know you are thinking of them. Hand made cards probably mean more today than they did ten years ago because technology is so much easier.
