Love & Crime

Two collage cards on the subject of love and crime

Whimsical Alterations

A card from a Taiwanese postcrosser depicting a fisherman who has caught money, snacks and fruit along with fish.

 A Russian postcrosser purchased this card from an unusual store that combines a free library and lecture hall. She altered it by adding a few stickers and word bubbles.

A sweet card from a postcrosser in Japan. She explained that her favorite shape is a triangle. The alterations are the flying bread. She explained, rather mysteriously, that she does not bread being thrown into her house. I am not familiar with this practice.

Caffeinated

This heavily altered card has rose petals, coffee and sugar enclosed. Amazing it made it over here with just one stamp!

Inside and Out

Here is fun altered postcard from a Dutch postcrosser. She drew and cut out the woman and the cat so that we get a view of her from the front and behind. This alteration was made on a card with just the two windows. 

More Sheep

Sheep stamps from my mom!

CNY card from Susan

New Year card from Tomoe

A sheep handmade card from a Dutch postcrosser

Wonderful stamps and cards on the Year of Sheep (or lamb or ram or goat). I am glad to receive these wonderful cards on this year's zodiac beast.

Two Favorites Sent

I have treasured this card by Carmen Lomas Garza, a San Francisco artist. This is a painting of a healer curing an earache. It was mailed to a postcrosser in the Netherlands who is a physiotherapist.

This card was in a pack of movie cards I picked up at the White Elephant sale in January. It's going to a young woman in Poland who asked for a Marilyn Monroe card.
