Happy Valentine's/Post Card Swap Day!

Happy Valentine's Day everyone! I'm not a huge Valentine's Day girl in general, but this year, the holiday was made much sweeter by Sian who organized a wonderful February postcard exchange. I received wonderful post cards from Karen of Random Reflections, Jo of curly scrapbooker, Melissa of Daily Life - Bits and Pieces and a lovely card title "rules are made to be broken" from someone whose name I couldn't quite decipher (Cylie, maybe???).  I love them all! Thank you so much! Were you in on the swap? Have all yours arrived yet?
This is the post card I sent out to my recipients:
I hope they arrived safely and that you have a love-ly day!

It was a lovely idea wasn't it? I've received 5 out of 6 now, they are all very different and all brought a smile to my face.

Very beautiful ... and I much appreciated the one you sent me too, and I wasn't even on your list. Especially thoughtful as it was one of your photos I had particularly admired. Thank-you!

Melissa said...

What a lovely card! You always come up with great still lifes. I must try it sometime. With knowing that I'd be away for the month I decided to opt out of the exchange but I'm hoping Sian or someone else organizes another one.
