Definitely a emailer.
I am an emailer, but I do love me some snail mail! I still get a little excited when the mail truck comes each day!
E-mailer. Could I possibly have an edge since my name is Kendall and I hardly see other people with that name?!?!
I’m an emailer–but because I LOVE to get snail mail still, I make sure to send snail mail out to others, too!
i love to snailmail but dont do it often enough
Definitely an emailer. However, if I had cute stationary like that, I just might switch to snail mail! ;)
I’m an emailer! But I LOVE this stationary. Nothing like a handwritten note to make my day.
A little of both! I do send more e-mails than snailmails though.
I’m an emailer for daily correspondence, but I LOVE to send cards/handwritten notes for birthdays, get well wishes, etc.
Well, I would have to admit that I often do send out a quick note to loved ones through email. But, since moving further away from family I have fallen in love with snailmail! I’m currently reconnecting with a friend from elementary, yes elementary(!), that’s now in school in Costa Rica, through letters. It’s great! I average about 3 letters out a week to various people, I think it keeps you grounded and is kind of a self-help therapy to slow down for a good 30 min!
Love the products–it would be fantastic to win :)
Both! I email friends, but started mailed cards to my kids’ grandparents.
When it’s something important like sending thoughts of sympathy and prayers or birthdays or special occasions I try to snail mail…(and oh she has some beautiful things to help me do that!! But really I email all the time to my inlaws and friends.
Emailer, it’s practical. But I do love to send and receive traditional mail it is a lot more personal.
I’m definitely an emailer, but when I want to make someone’s day…. I like to snail mail them something fun. Usually my sisters get those packages. :)
Emailer. I keep thinking I should start snail mailing again as cards and letters are so nice to receive – maybe time to actually follow through.
These are so cute!
I’m an e-mailer for all the day to day stuff, but for important things like thank you’s, birthday’s and other special occasions I always use snail mail. There is something special about getting something beautiful in the mail. E-mail can’t replace everything. :)
I’m addicted to email BUT a huge believer in sending handwrittten thank you notes!
I email for my day-to-day correspondences, but ONLY do hand written for thank you’s, birthdays, etc. I am a huge fan of written hellos, so the mailbox can surely be happy w/ notes too!!!! (i am a fan of Perideau on facebook!)
I have to say both! Depends on the occasion and who.
I email more often, but I love sending and receiving snailmail.
I am a little of both. I email for the quick stuff, but I love sending out real stuff in the snail mail!
I’m an e-mailer, but I do love writing with pen and paper—especially a fun green pen on paper that inspires me. :o) Perideau has some wonderful designs!
I am definitely an emailer, and that’s mostly because I hate my penmenship and can’t write in a straight line!
I wish I was more of a “snail mailer”… maybe some stationary would inspire me!
emailer who loves snailmail!
I used to be a snailmailer. I probably would become one again if I had stationary with my name on it (Kama) as I never have. I love getting both real mail and e-mail though!! :)
I am in love with personal stationary. Emailer :)
I email because it is timely but I love sending really letters, thank you cards and notes in general. Thank you for this opportunity.
I love snail mail, but prefer email…it’s so convenient!
I’m an emailer for everyday tasks, but I still use snailmail for personal correspondence.
Emailer. Way cute stuff!
I would love to be a snailmailer if I had time but alas I’m an e-mailer.
Email all the way if I’m the sender. But I do so love to receive the snail mail!
typically I’m an emailer but I will always send a thank you note via snailmail!
I’m definitely an emailer, but as a cardmaker too I have to be a snailmailer also! lol These cards are REALLY cute!
I use my e-mail every day. But I’m still a big fan of using snail-mail for birthday cards and invites, Christmas cards, or sometimes a thankyou or hello. Getting a piece of mail in your hands is like receiving a surprise gift. Big fan.
I’m an email’er by day, and a snail’mailer by night (I love sending friends & family snail mail!!)
A little of both. I email for the day to day stuff and try to snail mail for the special occasions.
I’m an emailer. :)
Both! I write my grandparents about once a month and I still write letters back and forth with my best friend from 1988! As convenient as e-mail is for quicky-notes, I love receiving letters, decorating envelopes and paper, using special pens… it’s a little bit of magic.
Both. Email for quick questions and catch up and snail mail for birthdays and holidays and other special occasions. I love sending people cards — there are some really really funny ones. I’m the crazy lady in Hallmark laughing to myself as I read the Shoebox cards!
PS, I just became a fan of Perideau on FB!
definitely an emailer
An emailer, although I make a lot of cards…I rarely send them! Need to get better at that!
Email for me!
I’m both, I love sending handmade cards in the mail. :)
an e-mailer!
Email and Snail mail – i guess it is rooted in the race to the mailbox that took place between siblings when i was a kid and there was no such thing as email! I still have a lift in my step on the way to the mailbox!
Both day to day stuff is email. Snail mail for birthday’s, holiday’s, thank you’s etc.
I do both. While I’m more of an emailer, there’s nothing like receiving a card in the mail to lift your spirits!
I’m a facebook fan of Perideau.
I am a emailer kinda Gal.
Oh man, email all the way. But I still can’t help getting a little excited when I check the mailbox and see something other than a bill in there…
Super cute!
I’m an emailer. I lack patience.
I do both. For short, informative notes I use e-mail. For longer missives or those notes that are full of heartfelt sentiments, I use snail mail. Paper is the only way to hold on to deep feelings!
I am both, but prefer snailmail.
I’m 80% emailer/20% snailmailer. Think of the postage I save!
I’m a snailmailer for sure. Thank you cards are always out right after Christmas and birthdays. And I looove personalized stationary– I think they make the best gifts!
I am totally a snailmailer–love giving someone a reason to walk to their mailbox:)
I LOVE that stationary!
I used to be a big time snailmailer. Now I am more of an emailer, but it sure is nice to get snail mail cards and letters, isn’t it? I try to make sure I am still doing some of that :-)
I’m an emailer who loves to receive snail-mail. I’m trying really hard to be better about sending things out in the mail to my friends and family though!
I am a fan on Facebook!
I’m an emailer for quick, everyday stuff… but I’m ALWAYS a snail mailer for thank you notes and special occasions. I know how excited I get for a “real” mail and I hope other people do too! :)
I usually email, it’s just faster. But I love getting a letter in the mail and I try to send special things to loved ones when I can by snailmail!
I’m a fan on facebook!
Ooooo… a bit of both… but if I had more time in my days I’d be more of a snailmailer… I love writing, sending and receiving cards and letters!
I heart snail mail :)
I definitely am best at emailing, but do love to send a snailmail note when I have the time!
I am an emailer for work, but love sending personal notes via snail mail. Adorable stationary! I think I am going to go spend more than I should be buying from these sites now!
I love the modern, elegant designs. They are so cute! I love sending thoughtful notes to friends and family almost as much as I love receiving them.
Both – email for quick stuff, but snailmail for meaningful things…cards, notes and special messages.
definitely an e mailer…all though I hand make cards for my friends, I just deliver them by hand too, a. I hate going to the post office and b. I never have stamps.
I’m a fan of Perideau Designs on FB.
I love me some snailmail, but of course use e-mail too!
i’m more an emailer, but i make cards and enjoy snailmailing too.
I’m more of an emailer… but I LOVE snailmail!
I’m a facebook fan!
I am an emailer but there is nothing like getting or sending a greeting card via snailmail.
I am an emailer, but I still love getting mail via snailmail. I try to make a point to send some srot of snailmail to my niece and nephew every now and then. :)
Emailer- but i LOVE to get mail via snailmail…. Its just more exciting than getting an email. But email is much quicker…
email but i do admit, i love getting a cute card in the mailbox with my name on it!
I’m a snailmailer when there is an occasion. I wish I was better at sending those ‘just thinking of you’ kind of notes. My MIL does such a good job at this – she sends a note to my daughter every single week, sometimes twice!
I am an emailer, but like most of the other people, I love to get snailmail. Everyday my daughter asks if she got anything in the mail, and though I don’t ask anyone, I secretly hope everyday when I walk to the mailbox that there is something exciting in it for me :)
Emailer. But I love paper, so I often buy cards or stationary and hardly ever use it. I need to change that.
i’m an emailer but have been returning back to snail mail more often. i’ve realized that snail mail is like a small gift to whomever receives it.
Definitely an emailer.

I am both……who doesn’t love getting something in either mailbox!
I’m definitely an emailer, but I love to receive snail mail.
Emailer. But I wish I were a snailmailer. It’s so fun to receive letters. I’m just lazy, I mean busy. :)
What a great giveaway! I’d love one of those kid’s prints! I’m much better at emailing — so quick and easy and it get’s there right away! I love getting “real mail” though so I wish I was better at that!
I do both e-mail and snailmail. E-mail is very efficient, but is there anything better than receiving mail? :)
I’m an emailer, but every once in a while I get to feelin’ froggy and send real mail – especially thank you cards.
I’m an e-mailer and a snailmailer! I still love sending cards, especially invitations and thank you cards in the mail. It seems so much more personal. :)
I LOVE snail mail! A friend of mine from high school and I have decided to be pen pals because there’s just nothing quite as much fun as getting something in the mail that isn’t junk mail or a bill. :)
Emailier – I will gladly give up my phone for it.
Emailer–with the occasional snail mail for special occasions.
I think i am both an emailer and snail mailer. It all depends on who the recipient is. I know that my aunts and mom love when i send them hand written notes especially if i am enclosing pics of the kids. They don’t use internet and never have so anything i send them must be SNAIL MAIL.
I also have relatives in Cuba that i love sending hand written notes in cute stationary. Since they have no access to pretty stationary i usually send them a sheet or 2 of whatever paper i am using.
Great shop! I love the Curry Family Tree Stationery. I mostly e-mail, but use snail mail for birthday cards and Holiday cards. Thanks!
I love the personalized owl! I am an emailer but we snail mail to both of our children’s birthfamilies.
Umm…so I tweeted (wrote like a status update on facebook and hit submit)…I think….I have been on twitter for like 2 days and am not really sure how it works or if I am doing it right :)
I love email, but it will never replace the real thing!
For me, it depends on the occasion. I’m typically an emailer, but for special events, like birthdays, I like to stick something in snailmail… I think it’s exciting to get fun mail on special days!
I’m mostly an emailer these days, but I just got three new penpals so I’m in the market for some new stationery :) I’m loving Perideau Designs, thanks so much for sharing!
oh yeah and I followed on twitter (@AshleyReale) as well as becoming a FB fan…Yay!
I am a snailmail lover! I use email for its ease, but I try to write one letter every day.
I’m an emailer, but I love to receive mail so I’ve been trying to write more.
More emailer but with some snailmail to spice it up
Would love to win.. and am an emailer
emailer, but I am always happy to receive mail that’s actually for ME instead of junk mail or advertising circulars.
I do a little bit of both. Snailmail is more fun though!
snail mail!!
I pefer snail mail. But also rely on email. I love the kid cards! Cheers, Rika in Utah
Mostly an emailer, but I love sending snailmail for special occasions!
I mostly just email but send a fair share of snail mail too.
I do both…but I definitely prefer the old fashioned hand written letter. It’s so much more personal and a dying art!
I’m a new follower on Twitter!
Oh and I tweeted about the giveaway!
Oh and I tweeted about this giveaway!
I’m an emailer but I love snail mail too. I just don’t do it very often like I should.
I do both generally email unless really important!
I definitely email more often than snailmail, but I try to at least send out birthday cards to people via snailmail. I know I love getting things in the mail!
I became a fan of Perideau Designs on Facebook
I am mostly an emailier, but I do snail mail for Christmas Cards (I like to handwrite the addresses to, as well as a note in each one and a pic of our family), as well as Thank You cards and birthday cards. There’s something nice about sending, and receiving, snail mail. It just seems more … thoughtful.
I’m mostly an emailer, but still love getting snail mail too!
I am an emailer, but still like to sent snailmail to special people. I also look forward to the little truck with mail because I like to get it!
i have a weakness for beautiful paper and stationary. love it!!
I’m both! I don’t get a lot of snailmail, but I love sending it!
I am a little of both. It depends on the message. It is oh so nice to open the mailbox to find a special little handwritten something.
I am an emailer. However, I love receiving mail. I literally run out when the mail woman drives away. Also, my mother in law writes letters and notes and I love that so I do make an effort to be a snailmailer. Not just for thank you notes but just to say hi!
emailer, these are so beautiful!
I actually don’t send many emails. And I love snail mail!
Typically an emailer, but with stationery that cute, I would certainly change my ways! I love, love, love those owls and giraffes!
Snailmailer – I am old fashioned!!!
An emailer, but a sucker for personalized notecards, and these are awesome!
Hi! I definitely send a lot of snailmail, but don’t often have time to make my own notecards, so would dearly love one of those beautiful sets!
I am mostly an emailer and sometimes a snailmailer. I would LOVE to have some cute cards for the times when a personalized note is more appropriate than an email.
I’m a little of both. I mail birthday/anniversary cards to friends and family…but I e-mail everything else.
I am definitely an emailer.

I do a bit of both. I mail bday cards, but I email everything else!!
I’m an emailer, but love to receive snail mail. I guess I should send more!
I am major e-mailer! Very seldom snailmail.
Emailer, but I do love to get snail mail letters!
Definitely an emailer, but I would love to get snail mail. I have totally been wanting some personalized stationary and that would be awesome.
I’m a little of both. Snail mail is extra special when sending to family and friends.
I became a Fan of Perideau Designs on Facebook!
I Tweeted this giveaway and follow too. Thank you! :)
Snail mail for the kind touches that should never go away-thank you notes, announcements, invitations, love letters. Email for everything else!
I am an emailer, and a snail mailer once a year for sending a valentines day card.
Love the snail mail. There is just something about the post office and chosing which stamp design to purchase!
Oo, I really hope I win, these items would be ideal for our new modern home. I’m an everyday emailer, but LOVE getting mail and have been having lots of fun with letter writing with my 4 year old lately as well!
Emailer, definitely an emailer.
These are so beautiful! I’m an e-mailer.
Totally gave the wrong e-mail address! Round two…
email for day to day correspondence but def snail mail for special occasions
I am an emailer though I’ve been known to snailmail on occasion.
Just became a Faceabook fan!
Hi!
I am still an old fashioned snail mailer as I send lots of cards and letters. However, I just LOOOOOOVE the convenience of email, too!
Norma
Oh my.. that stationery is gorgeous! I am an emailer mostly, but I love to send a hand-written note here and there! Who doesn’t love to get snail mail?
I am a fan on facebook!
Emailer… but I do LOVE to have my use my daughter’s artwork to make cards from her for our family and friends. How special is it to get REAL mail, and a homemade one at that?
Both! I e-mail for everyday things, but thank yous and letters to my kids’ grandparents (from my kids) definitely need to be snail mail!
I am both an emailer and a snailmailer! Email is best for efficiency, but if you want to send a sweet message or make someone feel special there is nothing like snail mail. I LOVE receiving a note or card in the mail so I try to do that as well. And you definitely can’t replace a thank you card with an email.
This stuff is fabulous. Gotta check out this site!
Both! I email the boring mundane daily stuff, but for lovely things ,I still send snailmail. My Aunt in England loves to get “proper mail” as she puts it , from the states. We try to make the paper fun. Once we pressed flowers onto paper & then drew Fairies (flowers were their skirts).She loved it!
Would love to win & send some of these wonderful papers to her!
I’m both depending on the situation.
I’m an emailer about 95% of the time :)
Thanks for the giveaway!
I’m a little of both, but with gorgeous stationary like that, I would say I’m a snailmailer!
Email….yep definitely email! But then again, I do love a pretty card and paper crafts are sooo much fun!
these are adorable! I love stationary and love to buy even though I am an emailer and don’t snail mail enough.
I’m an emailer, but I love getting snail mail. I really need to make an effort to snail mail more and return the favor, especially with cute stationary like this!
I’m an emailer!
I email but also have several friends and older ladies that I snail-mail! There are so many pretty things to choose from. Thanks for the opportunity!
I love e-mail and her designs are gorgeous! Thanks so much for offering this giveaway!
I am an e-mailer for all the quick day to day stuff, checking up on how things are going, sharing recipes or even sharing great blog links , but I love to send encouragement and lift me up notes to folks via snailmail. I am a “sucker” for cute notes!!!
I have a hard time throwing any way that I receive personally.:) Bridgett ‘s stuff is really cute.
I’m usually an emailer (even our wedding STDs and invitations are going out online), but I always snailmail my gramma! I send her a postcard about once a week (I live in Hollywood, so there’s lots of fun stuff to send). She loves it!
Tweeted and followed @perideaudesigns. If you wanna check (or follow for fun!), check out @psuklinkie.

This is a lovely product. Little things like this are a great way to treat yourself!
I e-mail a lot, but always use snail mail for birthdays and thank yous. I would REALLY love these cards and spread the word to my friends!
In general I’m an e-mailer, but I do love to recieve snail mail, and I love to send snail mail for birthdays, holidays and for thank you’s.
e-mailer for sure!
I prefer snail mail but I don’t send it out as often as I would like.
Neither, I’m a caller.
Mostly emailer. I still LOVE sending and getting snail mail, because most of the time if someone took the time to send snailmail, it is well worth it!!
I am an emailer for quick things, but will send out thank yous in the snailmail.
These designs are so adorable! I love the simplicity of them.
I am an e-mailer for sure, but it is always fun to get a card in the mail from someone.
I like email for instant gratification, but am a big believer in snail mail – it’s just so much fun to get mail other than junk mail and bills!
I became a facebook fan too :)
I use email for most stuff, but snailmail for thank yous. I love this stationary!
I love snail mail, but I usually only do it for birthday cards.
Both. I prefer snail mail for cards, invitations, etc., & I will purchase&mail those things for pretty much any announcement or event I can think of. But email is a necessity, too.
I tweeted this giveaway, & I am now following @perideaudesigns .
I became a Facebook fan of Perideau Designs.
I am an emailer, but I love snailmail given and received on beautiful paper!
I’m a bit of both but I do prefer snail mailing and try to do that more often.
Corinna
Emailer, but would become a snailmailer with this cute stationary!
I’m an emailer but still love to snail mail invitations and cards to special family and friends on a regular basis. I also became a fan on FB.
I am a emailer but on those special occasions a snail mailer!
Snail Mail Postal! There is an excitement that brews when you have “real mail!”
Awesome giveaway. I am neither, honestly. I aspire to be a snailmailer though
