klingon 10 Posted December 15, 2010 Share Posted December 15, 2010 Japanese traditionally seem to go pretty wild over New Year Cards. Some people I know even send them to a few people they hate. Some kind of face/politics going on I think. I'm wondering do young people send them as much? Wonder if the tradition will die out or just become electronic. Link to post Share on other sites

Chriselle 158 Posted December 15, 2010 Share Posted December 15, 2010 We do about 300 every year....but about 3/4 of those are pen business related. We also send out about that many for summer cards, too. My wife writes out a unique message for each one... Link to post Share on other sites
Jynxx 4 Posted December 15, 2010 Share Posted December 15, 2010 Wouldn´t be proper without a handwritten personal message. Some actually do it in Brush and Sumi ink. Link to post Share on other sites
