Anime love!


I just noticed these beauties never made it to my blog!
Time to set things right
I got them all in one swap

Two postcards from the Netherlands


These postcards fell in my mailbox today
I am really happy because both roses and horses are
personal favourites!

This gorgeous rose came with several Christmas stamps
but that's for another post


 The horses were a "just because" card from 
a fellow postcrosser, I love it.

Collecting Christmas stamps


USA

The Global Holiday: Silver Bells Wreath International Forever stamp (2014)
was created under the art direction William Gicker. Michael Owens designed the stamp and constructed the wreath, which Sally Andersen-Bruce photographed. Angelica Dennis created the bow.
I love the cancellation too! 

Poinsettia Stamp
classic holiday stamp with the bright and cheerful rendering of America's favorite holiday flower, the poinsettia.

All kinds of mail things


This tea was a resend from a swap I did via Swap-bot,
the card arrived, but the envelope was open and the tea gone.
The sender of the swap was so kind to try again.



This Christmas card arrived via a Postcrossing group
on facebook I am a member of. Look at the cute envelope
and extra stickers! 



And of course I also made some Christmas cards.
Hope that they arrived safely.

A great surprise in the mail!

I am back! Took some time off but now I am ready for 2015!
The first mail I received this year was a total surprise.

Not the best quality pic, but I had to be fast. Why? 
Well, the cat paw gives you a clue...

I got this great package from Nancy in Switzerland!
She hit the random button on Sendsomething and got my address,
lucky me! 
I got lots of chocolate, cute magnets, tea, 
a nice coin purse, a short story, a pretty pic
and a sweet Christmas card and letter.
The stamps are amazing too, but more about those in a different post.
