I've received summer greetings from Mail Art Martha!
The card on the top, called Rios de Colores (Rivers of Colour), was inspired by a swimming pool tile. She reworked it, and turned a crack from one of the tiles into some very cool-looking figures.
The card on the bottom features "a bit of summer madness" with a cat on a roof, a crow in a tree, and some shiny golden men on their balconies.
She also sent a cartoon from the adventures of Ali Khat and Vermina the Rat, which I'll post in the Group for Cat-Lovers.
More summer greetings from Katerina! I like that clock face sun with its pretty rose. Those sea creatures are sparkly, which I wish that my scanner and camera could capture.
We're still enjoying summer weather here in Northern California, too, and it usually lasts until late October. I love it!
Glad to see "ORANGE" has arrived, thanks, Fleur, for posting it xxx
We really do not have Halloween in Greece (well except for "stuff-to-buy" from a "JUMBO" kids toy store)...but I like autumn, and pumpkins, etc. The pumpkin rubber stamp is from Vizma in Australia, so I always like to put it to good use :-)
I've been sending out winter (and holiday) mini-postcards, and here's one of the cards from this series. I love the yellow winter aconite flowers on this old postage stamp.
Here are some more seasonal greetings from Katerina! I live near Oakland's Chinatown neighborhood, and the upcoming Lunar Year of the Boar is a big deal indeed.
This lovely card also honors the "Winter Season Trees." Thanks!
I've received some more "Lunar New Year" greetings. This postcard is from Tofu, and I love the way that he matched the card stock to our new U.S. commemorative postage stamp!

And the inside of the card, with some stickers and seasonal greetings in a variety of languages (including Greek). Cheers!
