Postcard Project

I just finished writing the last postcard, for now... And what fun this is. It was a challenge to write 39 postcards, and keep the content fresh, different and hopefully interesting. It was even more of a challenge to start a conversation with someone I've never met before. And rewarding to catch up with people I know.

I have to say, the postcards were a lot of fun to make. Several were hand picked for specific people based on the message on the front. Several were just random and fun. But all were incredibly therapeutic to make. Many hours were spent sitting at my dinging room table, poring through magazines, cutting out words and pictures and pasting things together. I felt creative. I had fun creating. So, thank you to all those who signed up. I appreciate it. And hope you do, too.
