Some great cards

It is really hard to say which one of these would be my #1 favorite...

On tosi vaikea nostaa tästä joukosta yhtä korttia ylitse muiden...

No hurries, no worries

I have enjoyed the most relaxing morning for a while - and this card that just arrived reflects my current mood perfectly.

Tämä aamu on ollut ehdottomasti rentouttavin, josta olen hetkeen päässyt nauttimaan - ja tämä tänään saapunut kortti kuvastaa tämänhetkistä fiilistäni täydellisesti.

Happy Friday the 13th!

Hyvää perjantaita 13. päivää!

Fairies by Lia Selina

I love these little fairies by Lia Selina, but don't receive them in the mail that often... Last week I had luck and received TWO totally unexpected. Thank you, ladies!

Rakastan näitä Lia Selinan keijuja, mutta niitä ei kolahda postiluukusta kovin usein... Viime viikolla minulla oli kuitenkin tuuria, ja keijukaisia saapui täysin odottamatta peräti KAKSI kappaletta! Kiitos, tytöt!

Coffee time?

 

RR card from the USA

Which one would be your cup of coffee?

Mikä kupillinen maistuisi sinulle?

Books are better than reality!

Would you agree?

Oletko samaa mieltä?

Here's a little selection of postcards that made me smile this week - have a sunny weekend!

Tässä pieni lajitelma postikortteja, jotka saivat minut hymyilemään tällä viikolla - aurinkoista viikonloppua!

Enchanting cards

There's something magical about these cards, isn't there?

Näissä korteissa on jotain taianomaista, vai mitä olet mieltä?

Wiscombe and Her Majesty

I received this colorful bunch of wonderful cards today - what a delight! I'm a big fan of Martin Wiscombe's retro posters - and cards showing royal people aren't that bad either. Thank you so much, Andy!

Tämä värikäs joukko tupsahti tänään postiluukusta - ihanaa! Olen Martin Wiscomben retrokuvien suuri fani - eivätkä kuninkaallisia esittävät kortit ole pahoja nekään. Kiitos erittäin paljon, Andy!

Wednesday puppies

These fluffy cuties landed in our mailbox yesterday.

Nämä söpöt karvapallerot tipahtivat postiluukusta eilen.

Quite English mail

These have arrived lately; lovely British humour and a precious Jane Austen card. Oh, and take a look at that monkey stamp! Those are the coolest stamps I've seen in a while!

Nämä ovat saapuneet lähiaikoina; ihanaa brittihuumoria sekä kaunis Jane Austen -kortti. Ja katsokaapa tuota apinamerkkiä! Nuo ovat ehdottomasti siisteimmät hetkeen näkemäni postimerkit!

Tapas and other nice cards

Lots of nice, incoming cards! Especially the tapas card made me long after all the restaurants in Madrid... "calamares fritos" and "croquetas de jamón", mmm.

Tässäpä paljon ihania, saapuneita kortteja! Varsinkin tapas-kortti aiheutti spontaanin kaipuun kaikkien niiden ihanien madridilaisravintoloiden pöytiin... "calamares fritos" (friteeratut mustekalarenkaat) ja "croquetas de jamón" (kinkkukroketit), mmm.

Sunday and cards

This has been a lovely week - and so have the cards that have kept pouring in. Hopefully the next week will be at least as sweet as this has!

Ihana viikko takana - ihania ovat olleet myös kortit, joita on sadellut postilaatikkoomme. Toivottavasti tuleva viikko on vähintäänkin yhtä aurinkoinen kuin mitä tämä on ollut!
