Happy Mailbox

I received these two postcards in the mail . The Gandhi one was not from India which I would have guessed but actually from Finland from a young lady from Postcrossing www.postcrossing.com .
the other postcard came from the Netherlands. I have loved Winnie the Pooh since I was a little girl and first saw this ginormous (might not have been as big as I thought being a little toddler things are not always as big as they appear lol) Winnie the Pooh in the Kids clothing section at our local Sears store. So I was quite happy to receive this from another Postcrossing member.

Town Image Postcard

My most recent request from Postcrossing was to send a card showing images from my town.  Well, my town is too tiny to have a post office or postcards of it's own, so I went to the next town.  It has a very lively tourist trade, thus it was easy to find a card to send to Belgium.

Year of the Dragon

This wonderful Year of the Dragon card is on it's way to a lucky Postcrossing member in Taiwan.

From Down Under

This wonderful card and stamp arrived this week from Australia.  PostCrossing is a fun place to belong and play.  Love there line that tells me how many times my mailbox has been happy this week.

Black History Month - Giveaway

 

I was at the post office yesterday looking for some Year of the Dragon cards and found this wonderful Black History Month one.  It's an image of Canadian Baseballer Fergie Jenkins, issued 2011 02 01.

Do you want this postcard to land in your mailbox, then leave a comment and I'll be drawing one name to win the card.  You can elect to have it sent to you or to your favourite baseball fan.  International entries encouraged.

Fabric Postcards ready to Mail

In between my bigger sewing projects I have been working on a few fabric postcards.  They are all made with trimming from when I was cutting pieces for my quilt.   I plan to send these to authors whose books I particularly enjoyed reading.

The scraps for these postcards are from my most recent project.  I am still working on the quilting of the border, though that should be complete in the next few days.  I don't have a photo on my blog yet, sorry.  I can tell you that it is very bright and colourful.

Valentine Received

This wonderful Valentines card arrived from Estonia yesterday.

I'm guessing that this stamp indicates that it is in celebration of the Year of the Dragon.
