Is your daughter in Florida too? Within driving distance? How do you usually go about getting your daughter (you pick her up, or mom drops her off, or puts her on a plane, or.....)? Do you know for sure that they haven't moved or that some "sudden" thing didn't happen back in May to make them unreachable?
Why wait 7 months?????? That's great ammo for mom to argue that you've abandoned the child (since obviously mom is going to claim that your cards/letters were never received). The answer to a court order not being followed is always: to take it to the court. Every time. The court can't and won't enforce orders if they don't know there are violations, and asking for a change in the custody order based on mom withholding the child isn't going to be reviewed in a favorable light when 7 months goes by. If you're not in a position to show up and get your daughter (with a copy of the court order in your hot little hands in case the police are called), you'll need to get to court asap.
