Such a sweet idea..I bet as she gets them they would be great sewn together to make a wall hanging and eventually a quilt.

I hope to find a neat box for her parents to save them in but did send a plastic plate holder so she can "display" one each wk...son says she moves it from here to there all over the house!

those are so sweet!!! i think i'm going to have to try my hand at a few of these. my daughter loves material so maybe i can use some of "her stash" to make something for her to carry around! thanks for the wonderful ideas and photos.

They are so cute.
Do you send them as an actual postcard or do you put them in something else?

I put these into envelopes so they will not get soiled and also I have been adding a lollipop and some stickers but you can mail as a postcard but need to have them hand cancelled and they require a regular stamp not a postcard stamp.
