Yesterday our "gang" gathered at our house to make valentine cards....

Interesting fact....all things that are "made in China" can not be purchased in China. Here are a few things that would be very easy to find in the US but are not available here...

• blank note cards
• envelops for note cards...(side note: I finally found some envelopes at a Japanese store in the mall on Sunday...I went back to buy them on Monday...they were all gone. Poof!
• pads of decorative papers for scrapbooking and card making....the package I brought from the US says MADE IN CHINA...but I can not find a single one for purchase in Shanghai
