The Great SDMB Spring 2014 Postcard Exchange!

I brought mine to the post office on saturday - due to the unusual format of my postcards, I did not know how much postage was required.

I can safely say that** Lsura **is an over-achiever! :smiley: I received two (yes, two!) postcards from her on Saturday. They are both cool, and quite different (love the bathroom, Lsura!), and are now gracing my living room mantle.

I’m glad you like them - I couldn’t decide between them! I’ve learned that antique stores often have vintage postcards and they are so much more interesting than most of the ones that I find for sale - I picked up a whole bunch of old Soviet ones that I want to put in small frames and hang.

^Great suggestion! I just visited our beautiful carousel and picked up post cards of some of the beautifully carved and painted horses. You’ll be getting one, Lsura, to keep us even! And, I’m ready for the next round. :slight_smile:

Mine are going out today!

Very good. All postcards are due in the mail one week from today. Leave us not tarry!

I received my first card today. :slight_smile:

Thank you JKellyMap for the beautiful mural! (No Spider-Man stamp for me though… . ;))

Oh, and I forgot to add… to all my recipients; please ignore the pre-printed portion of your postcard on the back. I had to improvise a bit to get the effect I wanted and those had nothing to do with the photo on the front. :slight_smile:

I got another one! This one was a very cool card from Lady Grey, all the way from the Netherlands! Thank you!

And yes I do love MC Escher:)

Got my first card yesterday, from Elendil’s Heir! It’s a grand looking theater with lots of marble and red carpet, must be awesome to see a performance there.

raventhief, glad you like it!

Well, piffle! I bought some good cards from Ottawa in February for this round , and now I can’t find them! Will have to hit our local museum.

Yes, indeed. I’ll be there Friday: https://c2.staticflickr.com/6/5054/5499128563_a6cf650393_z.jpg

The good news: I sent my postcards today.

The bad news: I sent the international one with domestic postage.

Good news again: I have more postcards at home! Will resend tomorrow.

Very good, and thanks.

They’re mailed!!

Sort of.

Which means…?

Mine are all away as of yesterday.

One domestic, and two off to the Great White North.

I will let the recipients find out first!

I received card #2 today, a lovely card with a fox and hare saying Good Night to each other. The Butterfly’s Ghost explained that its an expression about a place in the middle of nowhere, and that’s so fitting because that describes where I live!
