My 9th postcard

This envelope has been the biggest so far & the most colorful! Inside the envelope a postcard from Corrine Gilman at Dosfishes (blogroll) all the way from Massachusetts, US. (I shall go back at the weekend & add to each post where the other 8 postcards have come from) 

Along with the postcard are lots of bits & pieces, which is naughty as I only sent a card! But you can still smell the coffee in the packet!





 This card is astonishing as it's not a card really but a little accordian book.

It has a ribbon wrap









It has a back



and a front

It says live happier - I will, I am




It says Happy Birthday to me



I am speechless.

Thank you

Hi Emma, I got your lovely message and I will be emailing you (soon). I hope I'm not too late to do the swap and that you can still fit me. I haven't been too well and at the hospital a lot so not much at all is getting done this end!

Sending you very best wishes

What a fabulous 'take' on the postcard idea, and lots of delicious bits for you to collage.

Corrine rocks, remind me to do a trade with her!
I love the one you sent me it sits on my bureau with Lorna's and they totally are in the same color scheme as if you two collaborated.
