Look at what my aunt found while going through my Grandma’s things.
A box of all the cards I sent her over the years! (Can’t believe she saved them all.)
I tried to put some red on the cards I sent her. (Red was her favorite color.)
It’s kinda neat to see how my cardmaking has changed over time. (And how Grandma kept cards that I thought didn’t come out very good.)
Remember when House Mouse was popular? Still love these guys.
I made her a whole bunch of Texas themed cards when we first moved here.
Remember these Hero Kids? Too funny!
I love sending out Christmas cards. (Tried to come up with something fast yet clever since I usually make a bunch all the same.)
Thought I’d end with some Easter cards. (That All Night Media rabbit on the left was one of my very first stamps. I still have it!)
Sending a card really is sending love, isn’t it?
Hugs,
So fun and special! :)
Yes, yes it is. :)
Awwww, this is so sweet! The gift that keeps on giving :)
Oh Lisa!!! I love this box of love! And it is it’s own special box that she kept.. just of you!!!!!!
Sweet.. makes me want to send out a ton of cards!
What a wonderful post, and what a wonderful thing to discover. You must have been the best granddaughter ever. x
Hi, Lisa! What a wonderful treasure! Both for your Grandma and for you. So terrific to see how you touched her heart … she is still with you and sending hugs! Fabulous story! :-)
Aw…super sweet! Love that you get to see some old memories! So precious!
You should have these displayed in Lisa Spanglers card shop/museum :)
Such a neat box of memories…
Simply heartwarming! It makes sending cards so worth while. Thanks for sharing!
Absolute LOVE…trips down memory lane..that is what LIFE is all about…my college roommate also showed me a stash of my cards she has saved over the years too! Little treasures filled with LOVE.
I’m so glad you shared this special post with us…that box of cards is a testament to a wonderful relationship of love. How blessed are you to have had this kind of love in your life!

Very nice Lisa we are very proud of you. Keep up the good work. Love you
It really is, Lisa! I love that you shared this with us. I know your cards meant so much to your Gran and I’m sure she loved each and every one of them! Continued hugs being sent your way. . . .
Thanks for sharing these cards. Your father’s comment on your blog today made me tear up. It is exactly what my dad always said to me. He passed away a week after Father’s Day last summer (2010). He always thought my cards were special, too.
This is so very special! Thanks for sharing!
What a treasure, Lisa and a reminder of your special bond. I have 20 years worth of letters and cards from and to my grandmother and I will always cherish them.
Yes, I do believe sending a card is sending love. What a treasure to find the box. Sorry to hear your grandmother passed away. I’m glad you were able to spend time with her in Ohio. I no longer have any grandparents and it’s a feeling I still can’t get used to.
This is truly a box of love. I’m so sorry to hear about your grandma, but so grateful for you that you had her in your life. You are very lucky. Hugs to you as you move through this time.
box of sweet memories. thanks for sharing, Lisa!
