VINTAGE POSTCARDS~

I will be posting a collection of the Vintage postcards I picked up from the Vintage Paper Faire & the Antique Faire I attended within the past month or so.

Here are some lovely Asian postcards. I especially love the postcard with the 3 girls (the damaged card) wearing the colorful kimonos. They are sooo pretty.



The other set of postcards I found are these awesome Vintage Hawaiian postcards. As most of you know I am a native Hawaiian gal and I couldn't pass these beauties up. It really made me smile when I found them as they bring fond memories of my childhood growing up in Hawaii. Especially the Sea Life Park postcard. As a kid we used to take a lot of field trips to Sea Life Park. It was a great place to visit. I'm not sure what it's like now or if the park still exist. I will probably hoard these postcards. I don't know if I'll ever find some like these again. LOL!

MAIL ART SENT VIA SWAP-BOT~

Just wanted to share with you what I sent to my partner for the mail art beginner's swap I joined via swap-bot. I created this in between calls while at work. LOL!!!

HAPPY FALL~HAPPY MAIL DAY!!!

Hello Friends!!!



Happy Fall to all of you!!!! Gee... I really can't believe that Fall is upon us already. My has the time flown by. I love Fall though as it is my favorite time of the year. The smell of the crisp air, the bright autumn colors, with a bit of Indian Summer. It's nice to have cooler nights and not so hot days.

I have been trying my best to get caught up with various things I have written down on my to do list. I'm slowly getting back on top of everything I intend to do. I made 2 YT vids which you can take a peek at if you like HERE. I have done quite a bit of shopping over summer so I have more vids to upload. I hope to get more posted soon.

I'd like to share with you some wonderful mail I received.

I received some belated Birthday goodies from my sweet friend Jacqueline. I love everything you sent to me. It was really thoughtful of you to think of me. Thank you sooo much!!!!
