Traditionally people send New Year postcards (年賀はがき）in Japan. Some are hand drawn or include art work or family photos. So it was nice to do something similar for Christmas. Also postcards were simpler, quicker and cheaper that full blown cards.

Christmas Postcards
So most of the mail I sent in December was in the form of postcards. These went out to friends, family, previous postcards swappers, pen pals and IGers. The cutting and sticking and glue and glitter was fun and totally brought out the Blue Peter kid in me. I think it is something I will try and do annually.
