So when this envelope arrived for me from Jo this morning it caused great excitement.... and even more when I found a wrapped parcel inside.
I wasn't disappointed... as this was the wonderful postcard wrapped up inside...
Which opened up to reveal a beautiful butterfly. What a super interpretation of my theme of revealment and concealment. Thank you Jo... I love it!
I had to send a postcard to Jill this week, whose theme is windows... so I chose to stitch a "Room with a View". You can see more of the postcards swapped this week on the Postman's Knock blog... despite problems signing in and out of blogger... leaving comments....
and not to mention the blimmin' spacing which I still can't sort out no matter how much I play around with the html!
Love what the postman brought you, it's beautiful. You postcard is such a great idea and great fun, love it!
ReplyDeleteGina, what a wonderful surprise the postie brings, better then the dreaded bills!!
ReplyDeleteThe signing in/out on blogger is a current known problem, found via the Help a solution which worked for me - clear out your cache.
I'm glad now that I didn't choose Blogger,although I'm sure Wordpress will probably have plenty enough glitches of its own! Love the postcards - they are so beautifully thought out.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful postcards and ... Jo ... if you are reading this I have tried to leave comments for you on your last couple of posts including the one you have just posted about your butterfly but there is no box for me to complete so will pop back tomorrow or Monday x
ReplyDeleteJo's cards are beautiful aren't they Gina? They're like owning miniature paintings. I also love what you did for Jill too. Every posting brings out better and better ideas from us all. Lesley
