Postcards from Romania and Germany


Two castles in this blog post! 
The first is an offical Postcrossing postcard 
from Romania 

I love this view of Corvin Castle

"Flowers' clock"
(set of 6, 2013)
Each stamp combines the image of a flower with
a clock from the Nicolae Simache Clock Museum in Ploiesti.
The time on the clock tells us when this particular flower blooms during the day.

About mail and a butterfly


I received two envelopes today! 
One is a Swap-bot swap from Germany,
two bags of tea for my mom, but I had the 
pleasure of finding them in the mail. 

The tea smelled really sweet by the way

This is a letter from my pen-friend Kasia.
As you can see, the cat was curious and ended up on the pic too.


And this is a butterfly made from German
flower stamps. I never thought it would come out
so well, I am really happy with the result.
