Belarus: Wolf and Rabbit from "Nu, pogodi!"

Today's postcard from Belarus.
The characters are from a very popular (even still) Soviet cartoon called "Nu, pogodi!".

Thank you, Boris!

Malaysia: Children of the Stars

A wonderful greeting card I got with the Birthday swap package from verlustangst, Malaysia.

The Children of the Stars

This month I already did quite a number of private swaps, so really have to slow it down not to go bankrupt.  

On the "sending soon" list are two big item swaps - with Japan and Holland, so I'm not accepting any big item swaps till mid-March (if I won't decide to do big tags instead). Also I have to send 4 envelopes with teas (and there will be more coming for the Teas RR), so small item swaps (even if I'm greedy) are being put on hold for now too (unless I get some very good offers).

So far I'm concentrating on postcard sending - will be sending 4 private and currently 2 official this Monday. Missing Countries request is always open for offers.

Croatia: Slavonija

Received a card with no ID today - well, that's a first. Hope I'll get to know who's the sender soon.

Today's card is a multiple view from Croatia showing some very beautiful nature views and also men in traditional costumes.

Thank you!

Russia: Kotovasiya

I really love this cute series of postcards from Russia.
I'm not a big fan of animal cards, but what's bad about funny drawn cats living their lives mimicking real humans. :]
My very first Kotovasiya card.

 Thank you Olya!

Ukraine: The 100th official card received

So, today I got my 100th official card and it came from Ukraine!

Thank you!

And I also hosted a lottery for the handmade owl card, giving away two written and stamped.

The guess of the 100th official sent - the Netherlands!

#7 hellocc - 1
#14 estrambotica - 2
#26 Ami10 - 3
#30 bogdanovskaya - 4

And the winner is: bogdanovskaya (Spain)

Congratulations!

 And the 100th official received - Ukraine - didn't get a correct guess, so I'm giving it to one random participant.

 And the winner is: Hiena (Lithuania)

Congratulations!

I believe I'll have the picture from time to time, so also open for swaps.

My first handmade card sent

I decided to draw a card when I had nothing that matches the recipient's wishes. And it turned out to be my 100th official sent postcard that went to Netherlands. Made with a Japanese ink brush pen.

Lithuania: white and blue

And this is one of the cards I got in my post today.
By the way, a card from my favorites list.
Thank you very much!

Japan: New Year Greetings

Three cards I received as new year greetings from Japan. You have to admit it, Sanrio does a damn good job producing cute cards and inventing cute characters. Who's your favorite from the Sanrio characters? I love cinnamoroll series.

UK: Winnie the Pooh

Love this Winnie the Pooh series. The cards have matching stamps as well.
Thank you!

Belarus: Boar

Got this card from Belarus today.
A cute card with something very interestingly strange that I can't really describe.

France: Cats

A Cat and Frog card by Steinlen.

Netherlands: Looney

Made my day! :D
Thanks, Thea!

Netherlands: Three monkeys

The three monkeys from Eeke, Netherlands.
One of the people who has almost the same hobbies and interests as me.

Germany: Red Cat

A red cat that looks like our dormitory one from Andrea, who wants to become a cat in the next life.

Finland: Cat

Received this cute cat right at midsummer from a place that is 220 km away from the arctic circle.
