Please help me find the mystery sender of this beautiful card!

Dear mystery sender,

🌷

Thank you so much for the beautiful art card (little gnome walking through flowers/flower bed) I absolutely love it! Your cute decorations made it even more special. Unfortunately I couldn't find your username on the card so I can't thank you properly by tagging you. If you sent me this please leave a comment or send me a DM so I can give you a proper thank you!

Dear u/overlander1410,

🪼

I absolutely love the cute australian creatures card. Thank you so much for the card and all the extras too! Also thanks for sharing the cassowary fact and answering my question! I remember seeing a video that went viral of a zookeeper being attacked by a cassowary. And honestly, the smooth toadfish is just too adorable to be dangerous. Thanks again! Have great day!

Dear u/A_languageEnthusiast,

🐈‍⬛ 🌹

Thank you so much for the beautiful postcard of the cat and roses! I also loved the little note about Matcha and Mocha. Thats real siblings there! always fighting one minute and making up the next! Thank you for sharing that with me! Have a lovely day!

u/Maladi3_ - Thank you so much for my Saturn & Hyperion postcard. The dinosaur stamp is awesome, unfortunately his tail was bitten off in the mail sorting machine (or by a stray postal workers that has a thing against dinosaurs)

That pillow sounds soft and comforting. I SWEAR I have seen one of those before, but maybe it was your perfect drawing of it that put a phantom memory in my brain. And yes, I have no doubt that YOUR pillow is better quality than the stuff they are putting out now. Nothing is made like it was back in the day! My most prized possession is Wuggums, my stuffed dog. It is currently on my daughters bed. She loves him too which warms my heart 🦕

u/FriendNo2136 - Thank you so much for my ADORABLE baby fox card. Im pretty sure your profile has been deleted and that i am typing this into the void, but I still have to say that you or my OCD will keep me up all night. The global forever stamp was funny btw. Oops is right lol. 🦊

u/havocpuppy444mail - Thank you for your letter. The picture on the front is crazy. Where did you find that at?! I couldnt stop looking at it! Im sorry to hear about the issues you've been having. The food thing is ridiculous 😒 We have been buying a turkey every 2 weeks for the last year and eating A LOT of turkey sandwiches! That and pasta & soup! I want a giant steak! I swear if a cow walked through my yard he'd better walk quick!

Im sorry too about your kitty. I actually volunteer with a cat shelter in my area. WE HAVE SO MANY CATS! we havent taken in very many ourselves in the last 6 months. I'm going to send you a DM and get a little more info from you, and if you would like me to try I MIGHT be able to help. 🐈

u/Neither_Amphibian600 - Thankkkk youuuuu for the beautiful bird card of the black capped chickadee. It is so so pretty! I love original art printed cards so much. People have such talent and its nice to see that there are still creator's out there making the world brighter. It has a place on my wall of cards for sure!

I loved the story. My little one is staying with grandma for a couple of days (to give me some much needed time to clean the house lol, she is so messy lol) but when we pick her up tonight I plan to read her the story and ask her what she thinks it means. I love old stories like that, they really do teach a lot and everyone can interpret them differently. Thanks so much for writing all of that out! It was really thoughtful 🦢

u/rand_ston - Thank you so very much for my "Advice from a Polar Bear" card. Honestly that is some sound advice!! Live large, be thick-skinned, appreciate long winer nights!! Yep, those are definitely things we should all be doing!

PS: my daughers favorite stuffy is a white bear named white bear and so the card is hers now lol she has it next to her bed and it is being well loved 🐻‍❄

u/A_LanguageEnthusiast - Thank you dearly for my little ghost card! She looks so cheerful 😊 Your prized possessions sound amazing! Octopuses make the best stuffys! They are so darn CUTEEEEE!!! And the bride of Chucky dolls is hilarious! Those movies will never get old! 🐙

u/Thebunshouse - I love my Nightingale card so much! Its funny because when I first saw it I thought it said the name of the town I live in. It seriously is a beautiful card! I will be hanging it on my wall of cards, and it will make a perfect addition! As for favorite birds I would have to say mine is the Mockingbird. We have a family of Mockingbirds that live in the bushes outside. They have been there since we moved in after my oldest was born. I believe Mockingbird can live like 5-7 years (i might be a little off on that) but that is avout how long we've been living here, and they have their own little personalities. Ive watched them have babies and ive bonded to them so much (although when they start singing at 3am I want to beat the bush with a pool noodle lol) 🐦

u/PostcardRingsTwice - MY ANGLER FISH IS AWESOME!!!! She looks so vicious and yet so adorable at the same time! She is really into that book. It was a perfect choice of book for her to read. "The little Mermaid" lol and the look of awe on her face is priceless! Thank you so much for taking the time to draw that. Its really neat! It shall be attached to my wall of cards for sure! 🐟 + 📖

u/msmamapug - Thanks so much for my fossils postcard. I searched your username and I cant find a profile for you under it, so I hope this finds you. That does sound like a weird dream 😆 ive dreamed about ex boyfriends before and then woke up flat out disgusted lol then look over and see my husband there, snoring all cute...and a sense of relief floods my body lol 👰

u/no-zebra-9339 - Thanks so much for my wave photo. That is such a cool shot! I had ZERO idea what i was looking at so im very glad there was a description on the back lol. I have had a pretty good day. My youngest has a bit of a cold and she is sneezing on everything...eww.. i plan on disinfecting everything today and taking lots of vitamin C... i dont want any part of that lol 🌊

u/Visual-Tea-3616 - Thank youuuuu for my hand-drawn Halloween card! That is so cool, and u/Sammmanthax346 did a fabulous job! My favorite part is the bats in front of the moon. They are awesome! I love that you use a typewriter! The long lost art has been all but forgotten and it warms my heart to see people are out there still enjoying it (and allowing others like myself to enjoy it as well) 🦇

u/YarnivorousPlants - Thanks so much for beautiful card. Im guessing it is some kind of fungus? Its really cool to look at nomatter what it is! As for the gift suggestion reading material is never a bad decision and Limericks are the best of all! I might would put it in the bathroom. He goes in there a bunch 😆 probably to get away from wild maniac children running wild in the home lol, he could use a good laugh 🍄

u/anomarex - 😄 🤣 😂 Thank you for my ye' olde' tidings of good cheer lol. I love it. It is everything I was hoping it would be and more. HUZZAH!! lol... the dragon is flippin' cool too. He looks so fierce. This card most certianly put a smile on my face. Jist sitting here writing this, looking at it STILL makes me smile. You are awesome! Thanks so much for taking the time to make that for me! 🐲

Thanks to u/babyratgurl for the personal movie recommendations. I'm really excited!

u/rare_cranberry_7861 I absolutely loved your handmade envelope! And thank you for all the goodies and the letter! I will write back once work calms down a bit :)

u/AceusErin - thank you for the farmland wildlife card! as a bird lover I'm very happy to see the amount of feathered friends. definitely my favourite category of animals. to answer your question, I haven't given proper wildlife/bird photography a go as they move too fast! we're known for our beautiful native birds as well, but I might need a better camera first haha. hope you enjoy autumn (my favourite season!) and have a great weekend <3

u/dlnll - thank you for the ferris wheel postcard! I'm really hoping that you didn't actually get stuck on top and it was all a bad dream haha. you have very nice handwriting by the way - I'd love to know what type of blue ink pen you used. it's been a pleasure doing this exchange with you, I hope you enjoy your froggo card when it arrives :) have a great weekend ahead!

u/ppelippippam - thank you for the WPD meetup card! I'm honoured to be your first card to this part of the world. I also have a younger cousin that's like a sibling to me, we actually met up for lunch today - we don't talk all the time but when we do, our conversations turn into four hour 2am phone calls. I think it's very nice to have cousins like this :) I'm very excited to send you back a card - please anticipate! hope you have a great weekend ahead <3

Hello. I have 4 postcards left. Any takers? Leo is my 14 year rescue shih tzu. He was heavily compensated for wearing costumes.

Thank you for sharing about hydrangeas. They are very popular in Japan and I have two plants, both the color of the stickers you used. My blooms also lasted such a short time so maybe the sentiments that they are all show and no substance is accurate.

Hello!

Looking for someone active and responsible because it will be your mission to get this little TPC to its home!

u/sirenoftheriver - x2 - oh wow! thank you so much for the amazing birthday card envelope. I am blown away. I love all the purple things inside. You are so kind. The WAX seal is amazing. I love the fall stickers and the postcard and I’ve never seen the magic the gathering card so that was pretty cool to see. I’ve heard about it a lot before but never actually saw any artwork or cards. The way you decorated my envelope with all those cool stickers was amazing too. you also have one of the coolest names I’ve seen in this sub and Reddit in general. Thank you, thank you thank you.
