So far this is my favourite postcard :)) I love it because:

  • it is a turtle card,
  • the turtle is cute, and
  • the turtle seems to be in a hurry – I don’t remember the turtle to be in such a hurry, not even in the race against the rabbit *winks*

Anyway, I received it from Christina, who also happens to be a blogger, but her blog is in Dutch :(

OOoo la la..

I received this card from Katarina, a 20-year-old Swedish girl who collects postcards with a city or landscape or architectural motif. The card, she says, shows the various views from the city she lives in, Stenungsund, together with 23,000 other inhabitants.

Yesterday afternoon, I received an envelope containing a short hand-written letter, a postcard and a hand-made card from Auli, a 44-year-old grandmother from Finland. Yes, she’s only 44 but she has a granddaughter aged 4!

The postcard, she says, shows a typical summer lake view in Finland, which is also dubbed “the Land of 1000 Lakes.” Which reminded me of the “Land of Big Roundabouts with Long Names” post that I had written but accidentally deleted *sniffs*

And she made the flower card herself, with a little help from her copy machine, which I assume is a printer :))

And since she took so much trouble to make the pretty flower card, I will send her a surprise postcard in return. And no, no prizes for correctly guessing what card I’m going to send her *winks*
