I love this beautiful postcard from awyn

Beautiful, the colors, the carved eraser border that also is water rising around that poor woman who is all of us, and whose dress is the same color as that border/water, and contrasts beautifully with the solid gold…

Fragrant-looking collage received from Maree McHugh

Look at all the smells! I can just imagine, but I went so far as to sniff this lovely card, and detected the pleasing aromas of paper and glue. Thank you, Maree!

Received from Rani Goel, thank you!

Received from Bonniediva, thank you!

Great to get a real letter telling me that my last Boring Postcard had special meaning for Bonniediva, what a cool coincidence! And thank you for this delightful collection.

The Boring Postcard here may appear boring at first glance, but on closer inspection, I was a bit shocked to see the school was named after a Confederate general. Really?…

Received from Celestial Scribe, thank you!

It was tempting to throw away the envelope unopened in hopes of encountering the gorilla, but I resisted that temptation. No incidents to report at this time.
