谢谢你指出legen不幸成为d. With email becoming our prime mode of communication, it’s easy to default to typing a message instead of writing it out. But there’s just something special about receiving a handwritten note in the mail. So if you want to show your relatives just how much you appreciate them, I propose we bring the thank you cards back on trend! As you watch the holidays approach with the expectation of gifts and hospitality, DIY these 13 thank you cards that will get you ahead of the gifting game.

Stamps are a wonderful and easy way to decorate a card. Whether you buy a set of blank ones to decorate or make your own from scratch, your loved one will enjoy finding a lovely stamped card in their mailbox. (viaClear and Simple Stamps)

你更of a dyeing person? Then you should know that you can totally dip dye paper. Make a set of matching stationary as your thank you cards this year… and make a set for each of your family members too. (viaPoppytalk)

No one says no to a little sparkle. Using gold paint and glitter to make these gilded notecards will be a winning idea, especially as a thank you for all the wonderful Christmas presents in store! (viaCamille Styles)

Get the kids in on the card-making fun with this notecard DIY. Let them use their brushes to splatter paint all across your cards. Once dry, fold in half, write on the clean side and mail to a friend. You can make different colors to match the time of year. (viaElizabeth Anne Designs)

Washi tape is totally one of the best new crafting mediums. For this card, cut out your thank you and place a washi tape striped piece of paper on the inside. The words in front will suddenly get a big bang. (viaSimply Kelly Designs)

Before you throw away your fabric scraps, have you ever thought about decorating cards with them? Using a simple stitch on your sewing machine, you can carefully attach the pretty fabric to the front of the card. They would make lovely Christmas gifts too. (viaA Beautiful Mess)

I couldn’t leave out a watercolor thank you note! By using your best calligraphy on a white piece of paper with liquid frisket first, you can watercolor the heck out of that card and in the end, still have a lovely white word or phrase on the front. Brilliant. (viaDamask Love)

Speaking of watercolors, painting with them make a pretty picture as well! Try a geometric pattern or something a little more bold that will become fridge-worthy until next Christmas. (viaCalico Skies)

Fabric isn’t the only thing you can sew onto a thank you card. Break out your stash of embroidery thread and get stitching over a pencil drawn pattern. This card decorating method can take as long or as short as you like, depending on how complicated your pattern is. (viaFlax and Twine)

Isn’t this banner card adorable? The little flags are made from washi tape! You can change up their pattern with the occasion. I’m thinking a set for birthdays and a set for Christmas and a set for spring. (viaDecorator’s Notebook)

Yes, we’re thinking about watercolors again. But a watercolored card is more a work of art than mail. Careful though. When your recipient gets their gorgeous card in the mail, they’re going to ask you where you got them… which means you’ll need to make extra for gifting. (viaAlmost Makes Perfect)

I’m kinda in love with this marbled stationary and you should be too. Just steal your man’s foamy shaving cream, grab your food coloring and get to making a set of thank you cards like no one’s ever seen. (viaHonestly WTF)

You ought to know by now that every paper crafting post ends with a printable. Some people really are too busy to make their own thank you notes, but they would still like to send them. Thank you Internet for having tons of printable thank you beauties so even the busiest of us can send mail. (viaDelia Creates)
