This picture reminds (kinda) of (old) Quebec City, Quebec - here in Canada. Which incidentally is where my husband proposed to me. (Quebec- not Belgium).


Thank you very much for the pretty card! I love the buildings!

I really love the mix of the new and old in this postcard.
Also I was thinking about how probably not one of the individuals in this card know that they are on a post card. How weird is that? I wonder how many images of me are out there? Me walking around in someones photo, inevitably doing something unflattering.

Isn't the sky beautiful in this photo?


Beautiful card Marcelina~ and what a beautiful name you have too! Thank you!

Photo of: "Pegasus" at the Old Red Museum of Dallas Country History and Culture

"This Pegasus was originally built for the 1939 World's Fair in New York City as a symbol of the Magnolia Oil Company, now Exon-Mobil. It was later moved to the Casa Linda Mobil gas station, just east of downtown Dallas, and eventually moved to the Old Red Museum's main entry."

I really do like this card- although I am not going to lie- it took me a minute to see "Pegasus".

This card brought back memories of my grade 12 advanced English class (that's right- advanced). We made a video presentation of some of the Greek Myths. If my memory is correct, it was pretty terrible. We "acted" it out useing Barbie dolls and various other action figures. I believe Darth Vader played Hades. If nothing else it was fun and we did get an "A". I actually REALLY got into Greek Mythology for a little while after that- anyway- that's what this card made me think of... yet another thing to add to my pile of 'lame' interests..I swear it gets longer everyday.

Oh. And this card had Simpson stamps on it.
I am pretty excited about that.


Thanks Auroa! I love the card and the stamps! My first card from Texas I belive!

Photo of: Penguins!

A beautiful card with beautiful stamps!

So, nothing like a bunch penguins on a frozen tundra to remind me that winter is barreling towards us. *sigh* I am SO NOT ready for mittens. Summer was so short this year here in Nova Scotia. I would argue that we really only had a good solid two weeks of "real" summer weather. The rest of the summer was, in my opinion, dreary, wet and dull. Oh well- husband and I did manage to squeeze as much summer fun in as we could.
If nothing else the cold weather at least makes me feel less ridiculous about knitting...which reminds me....I really should finish that blanket.

Thank you so much for this very very pretty card! I also love the stamps!

What a pretty card and a lovely letter all tucked into an equally pretty card (also of lambs)!


Thanks Adry! So pretty and so thoughtful! I love the little letter you wrote and the pretty little card you tucked it all into! Very unique! Thank you so much for telling me a bit about where your from, I love learning about other places!

I Used To Think I Was Pretty Cool....

...and then there was 100 post cards in my collection and I thought self, "that's a lot of post cards".
Yes..it is a lot of post cards....but I have met people with many many many more. People with so many cards that there collection would easily put my measly 100 cards to shame. But I mean...come on...100 cards is a lot especially when you realize I have only been collecting since May 2009.
All in all I'm pretty delighted, though to be honest, I'm a little worried that Ill turn into one of those "crazy collector" people. But then I realize that I have no where near enough spare time for that, and besides, I also have my stamp collection...so yeah know...that keeps me pretty bust too...(ahem)....

Well, here they are in all there glory....
YEAH! 100 POST CARDS~~!!!!~~~!!!


Oh...also I gave the blog a slightly new look to celebrate~!
(mostly because I was sick at looking at the old design,,,)
