A sweet vintage card


I've been cleaning out boxes in a closet and was stunned to find that two of them contained old correspondence, including unopened junk mail from 1987!  I'm sure the person who placed them there in a "stash & dash" moment never expected to leave them there that long.  One of the boxes contained mostly Christmas cards, including this sweet one.

The cardinals and chickadees at a snowy window feeder are so pretty.  I love this card.  It is small and simple but so New England-y.  It tells a story.  Hope you have enjoyed seeing it, too.
