A fellow blogger (Ally at everyday miracles) has included me in a lovely project - to hand write a card, post card or letter and send it real mail. A novel idea, given how much we rely on email today.
I have looked longingly at the lovingly crafted cards and envelopes on Ally's blog, and today, joy of joys, my own beautiful card popped through the door.

There, amongst the boring stuff, was this lovely iced biscuit post card, designed by Ally, and sent all the way from Tasmania.
Ally, I take up your challenge. I have made my post cards and one will be on its way to you by the end of the week (I'll post a pic once Ally has enjoyed her surprise).
In the meantime, a blogger more local to me at Christmas Pie Crafts, is running a card-making competition with the theme 'flowers'. I love photographing flowers, and have documented my year in flowers, so I have several dozen to choose from. I have been designing cards this afternoon, and have become thoroughly lost in my projects. I hope to submit an entry to Jill's competition. I particularly like this 'With Sympathy' design using one of my photographs and a quote from the Prayer of St Francis of Assisi.
