This week's mail

I've been quite busy this week to do daily updates. Anyway here's what I found in my mailbox this week:

2 TAGS

-Christmas Tag from nedra (Onti in Finland)
Finnish greeting: "Merry Christmas and Happy New Year"


-Valentine's Tag from chimoy (Martha in Florida, USA)


Private Swap from Renegade_Cavalcade (Marie in Canada)

Marie picked up this card during her visit to the Philippines over the holidays. The card shows Magellen's shrine, cross, & the Lapu-Lapu statue in Cebu, Philippines. I'm so happy to receive this card, because I visited these sites last August when I was in the Philippines with my family.

And here is the 2nd batch of Birthday wishes for my daughter!
Special thanks to:
-huppu68 (Kirsi in Finland)
-Nowaglas (Jocelyn in New Mexico, USA)

My daughter's birthday won't be for at least a few more weeks!! I'm holding all the cards until then so no peeking beforehand!!! ;-P I am expecting to receive nearly 25 cards total! WOW!

Birthday cards for my daughter

About a week ago, I posted a thread requesting birthday cards for my daughter & in return we would send out handmade cards or CA postcards to "thank" postcrossers who send my daughter cards.

I got such an overwhelming response! So far we are expecting cards from 22 kind postcrossers! Wow! She will be so excited! Her birthday isn't until mid-February, but I decided to make a request early to allow time for mailing overseas.

At any rate...I've already received 3 cards in the mail addressed to my daughter! :-D I am holding onto them until it gets closer to her birthday....so you will have to wait to see scans of those! As for the handmade "thank you" cards......because we got such a huge response for these.....we will start preparing those as early as this weekend. I will try & scan those as well before I mail them to their recipients so I can share them here with you!
