Two Thank You Cards for Shower Hosts?

I was planning to send a thank you card to my shower hosts specifically for throwing the bridal shower for me and include a gift card as a small thanks. (I did give the hostess flowers on the day of, nothing too crazy, just a nice grocery store arrangement, so that's covered.) However, all of them also gave me shower gifts, and it seems strange to me to include a thank you for their gift along with a gift for them. 

Should I send them two separate thank you notes--one for the shower, with the gift card; and another for the shower gift? That seems like it might be a lot of thank youing, so I'm not sure if I should just stick with one card. Advice, please! (And thank you.)

ETA: I don't mean "a lot of thank youing" in that it's too many cards to write--it's not. But they might feel like it's a lot of thank you cards to receive, one right after the other.

  • I did day-of hostess gifts and then I sent a TY card to each hostess, thanking them for the shower and their shower gift.

    [QUOTE]I think one card is fine, especially if you've given them TY gifts for the shower already.

    <div>See, that's my conundrum--I have not yet given them the TY gifts for the shower--I was going to mail them with the thank you card.</div>
  • I sent flowers to the co-hosts of my shower with notes thanking them for throwing the shower for me; I plan to reiterate my thanks for the shower AND for their gifts with one thank you card for each of them.  I agree that two separate TY notes for one person is unnecessary for the same event.
