swap
I already swapped with Cristina from the Philippines several times and today I found a surprise card in my mailbox. She told me the card is from her favorite stationery store and the card is made of recycled paper.
She also bought a kit to make recycled paper but didn't try it so far.
Thank you Cristina, for sending me this lovely card! Made my day! :)

What a coincidence! I swapped cards with Allen from Canada twice and got his address recently via the official postcrossing process! As a thank you, he sent me two cards along with gorgeous stamps!
The first card is a folded one, showing two owls. The second card is a handmade one with an origami cloverleaf!  Yaaay! Owls and cloverleaf for life! xD
Thanks again Allen! Always a pleasure to swap cards with you!

Isabel from Germany studies art history and Italian and spent a year in Bologna, Italy.
I once added this card to my favorite-list and Isabel and me agreed in a swap. Lucky me, cause I got this amazing card along with two brilliant stamps from Italy! :D
She also wrote a lot, which is as important for me as the actual card (probably even more important!).
Anyway - I was pretty thrilled when I found the card in my mailbox. Hope to swap with her again soon!
Thanks Isabel! :)

Hooray! My very first card from a Postcrossing meet-up!
According to the sender, it was a meet-up in San Diego, California.
The card makes me twice as happy, because it's also my very first Halloween card! <3

She comes a long journey to keep Hallowe'en."
