Ikea Bird


So I got a set of bird-related cards like this at Ikea. I think they're meant to be framed, but I immediately thought postcards! I love them

The recipient said birds were her favorite animals, how perfect!

Malibu to Germany

US-3071983

Miss Susanne from Germany likes beautiful landscapes, so I sent her a little piece of Malibu:


She has sent over 1900 postcards in the past 4 years. By comparison, I have sent 33 postcards in 3 years. I am impressed!
