roundabout altereds

A Croatian postcrosser who now lives in Italy sent this card of the Cocos (Keeling) Islands. Though she said she didn't quite get the idea of altered cards or how to make one, she put what looks like torn pieces of a paper napkin to effective use on this one. Good job!

A Finnish postcrosser studying in Germany sent this cool card. She wrote that she went to a card shop for inspiration to make an altered card. She found this newspaper postcard and taped fragments from German newspapers to it. Clever!

These two cards arrived in the same post. A red letter day! I hope the senders enjoyed making them as much I enjoyed getting them.
