Don't get me wrong -- I'm a fan of technology. Texting instead of making a phone call, keeping tabs on people via Facebook statuses; I love it. But as technology progresses at lightning speed, I start to pine for The Way Things Used To Be. I mean, people don't even read emails anymore! What's that about? I start to feel like a cranky old lady and I'm only 31!
What I've realized is that despite (or maybe because of) technology's rapid growth, people start to appreciate "old fashioned" things more. Take, for example, a handwritten card. How great is it to get one of those in the mail? And even better -- what if that card makes you laugh, too?
These Gangsta Cards by Farewell Paperie (at Etsy) are the perfect way to let your friend know you're thinking about them; to give them a fun, cheeky surprise at the end of a long day. Made of sturdy, high-gloss cardstock, these notecards measure 3.5"x5", are blank on the inside and perfect for almost any occasion. They can be purchased seperately, but the 4-pack ("Sup Shawty," "Fo Shizzle," "Hey Holmes," and "Werrrd") comes in a cute linen pouch and is only $12.00.
The cards come with bright white envelopes and are begging to be sent to your dawg, shotty, boo, boy, or anyone else you can think of!

Full disclosure: I have a pair of these earrings and love them.So I decided I had to share. It's a new take on the hoop earring, threaded through your ear instead of having a back. I find they stay in better when I'm on the go, and there's nothing on them to lose. The design also gets me a lot of comments, even if I just have my hair back because I'm being lazy. They're a perfect everyday earring with a little bit of flair. 14.50 at Rock Your Wire.
