Happy Mail! What better way to celebrate one’s birthday, than by retiring.

That’s what a family friend did recently when he retired after 30 years delivering mail.

This card was created using Concord & 9th’s Mail Drop die and stamp set. My husband wrote the messages on the letters since I did not have any stamps that would provide the sentiments we wanted in the small space we had to work with on the letters.

Inside I used an older Stampin’ Up “Happy Birthday” stamp.

I used the mailbox lid stamp from Concord & 9^th’s Mail Drop stamp set on the envelope flap.
