Delivery Two at Postman's Knock

Delivery two

at our postcard swap at

Postman's Knock



This is what I made for

Joanna

her theme being

Collections / Collecting

The caption reads,

' Millicent liked nothing better

than an afternoon

sorting her

button collection'

I used buttons from my old button tin,

a page from an old dictionary

& image from

La Mode.

I hope Joanna likes what I made her.

We are having such fun,

twelve of us 

sending a postcard we have created 

from their chosen theme

to the person below us on the list,
every second Friday

until we have worked through the list and all

have received a set of twelve unique postcards.

My theme is

Angels

and this is what

Chrissie

made for me

Isn't this fantastic ?

I love the colour scheme, the textures

and above all the humour...
the mad hairdo & odd sized eyes !

Thank you so much Chrissie

and thank you again

to all involved in this fun swap.

Postman's Knock

I have joined a postcard swap

here

which involves twelve of us making a postcard

for the person alphabetically below us on our list

based on their chosen theme.

All twelve of us post our cards on the same day.

My first card is for

Jill

whose theme is

Windows.

My card is supposed to represent  looking  into a window

on a whitewashed house in Spain.

Geraniums in terracotta pots on the windowsill

beaded fly curtains

old worn frames

and lace to keep cool

in this hot place

I used to live in Spain

and though I hate to see caged birds,

many houses in our village had them

so I have included one.

I found the vintage book at a market

while staying in Barcelona.

***

I rushed to the door when the postman arrived this morning

and

this is what

Jane

made for me.

My theme being Angels.

A beautiful Angel

printed onto specialist paper

so that the light shines through

like a stained glass window.

The gold is so rich against te darker tones.

Simply beautiful.

Jane photographed the image while on holiday

in Blanchland Northumbria.

The gold edging  frames it beautifully.

I'm so glad I chose the theme Angels !

Thank you Jane for my lovely postcard

and thank you to the organisers of

Postman's Knock

for all the hard work.

It's a lot of fun.
