u/mouserat: firstly, omg i love your username sticker. it's so cute! Having baby quail in your backyard sounds so cute. My friend loves to bird watch too, and they have a nice bird feeder right outside their kitchen sink window. Such a great way to make washing dishes enjoyable haha.

u/useful_skirt_4305: Thank you for the postcard! How was the rooftop restaurant you tried? The last time I was at a rooftop restaurant kind of thing was at a restaurant that I applied to work to downtown. They had 5 floors--the first, fourth, and fifth floors were actually operational, the fifth being a rooftop dining area. Part of the training included food running. Turns out that they made the food runners walk up 5 flights of stairs to deliver the food. I quit after that.

Hi all, I’m trying harder to lock in and start cooking more at home, with recipes that are relatively easy but still tasty!

I’m working on doing better with budgeting, and one thing I have to cut down the most on is eating out. Lord, it steals so much of my paycheck. Nevermind the convenience though haha.

I’d love to hear from you guys about your favorite everyday recipes. I want to build a repository that I can pull from and start meal planning with! This will help (:

Thank you in advance!

u/no-condition5102: thank you for the card with a watercolor work of yours!! I’ll send one back soon (:

u/aztec111: tysm for the Friends cat themed card and the wax seal stickers. Did you make those? They’re so beautiful! I love the card too 😭 it’s so pretty and abstract. I had to take a second look to notice it was Friends theme washi tape.

u/radiant-ad-3038: thank you for the spongebob postcard!!! My 2026 has had a mix of interesting things happening, but it’s mostly been amazing. Coming back to RAOC has been so delightful.

u/canameow - thank you so much for the hammie card and the cat postcard!! Your furboys seem sooo cute! My little girl, Ginger, is such a rascal. She definitely is loving, but plays hard. I have a lot of scars from her little claws LOL. Also, RAOC is SO wholesome. It feels like I only took a short hiatus because the community is still the same pleasant place I remembered it to be. I definitely still love happy mail as well, and am trying to get my friends into it!

u/pupslace: tysm for the card and stickers!! When I saw the MD stamp you put on my card, I gasped! It's perfect!

I got a PO Box!! I’ve always wanted one and I thought it’d help me to get back into the carding/hand lettering hobbies. It’s a great motivator so far.

I’d love to have a little po box welcome or warming with happy mail!! If anyone wants to send me something to break in my po box, please let me know (:

it's been almost 7 years since i was last active on this sub, so let me reintroduce myself (or simply introduce for all the lovely members who don't know me).

hi!! my name is cass, aka dapuddingthief or pudds. 8 years ago, as a lonely college freshman, I started sharing my love for carding with the people of r/RandomActsofCards. i was active until my mental health started stealing away any motivation i had for my hobbies. life got busy fast and before i knew it, 7 years passed. i was really depressed in those 7 years! but now i'm getting something called dTMS for major depressive disorder and HUZZAH~! i am now off of work for the next 3 weeks (certain, up to 8 weeks leave pending though).

so i thought, why not try carding again?

here's the offer btw for those who think tldr: i want to send some handmade cards (will most likely be something hand lettered or a silly doodle, lmk what you prefer???) out to start things back up for me. if u remember me, pls say hi in the comments so i can send you something too !!

with lots of love and gratitude, cass (ur semi-local pudding thief)

edit 1: tysm for all the love!! for now, i won't be able to take on more offers. I'll be back sometime soon with a new one, but for now i'll be working on these cards for all you lovely people. if you know me from 2019, feel free to chat with me though bc I'd love to catch up!

i have so many prints in my collection that i have no wall space for. what are some creative ways to use/display prints?

i’m thinking of getting a big binder to display them in like the artists do to showcase their work. i like this idea, but i don’t want to have something that feels like a print photo album (only seeing the prints when you sit down and look at the album).

does anyone have any suggestions or ideas?
