a piece of my heart

One of my favorite things is hand painting cards. 

Why spend so much time on one card? 

From a businesses perspective it makes zero logical sense. 

To me...

It's a hug in an envelope. 

It's time. 

It's something unique, just for you that no one else has. 

It's a piece of my heart expressed on paper.
