Mail Received - Vaida from Lithuania

It's been a week of surprises. This one came from Lithuania. The envelope is very pleasing, simply decorated with paper and pencil. But what is inside?

A most beautiful and intricate card in black and white. On a black background there are delicate white dotted lines. A punched round hole contains a small paper disk held by fine white thread. Very nice.

But when you turn it around there is another surprise, another drawing: elegant black lines reminding me of reeds or wild grass or flowers. Now you can see the disk again, from the other side, held by the fine white stitches. 

Vaida, this is amazing, thank you for this surprise!
