Slow-worm from Finland

This amazing postcard arrives courtesy of Zigu in Finland. But it's not just a postcard - it's a beautiful work of original art. She is so very talented! The back was cute too - with handdrawn stamp and postmark.

This fellow is a slow-worm, and he is not a worm nor a snake, but in fact a legless lizard. I think he's on the hunt for something tasty to gobble up.

Thank you so much Zigu! It's gorgeous and I love it.

Russian Cathedral

The cathedrals in Russia are amazing - they don't look real! This one is in the city called Kizhy and has arrived courtesy of Elvendream. Isn't it magnificant?

It is about 37m tall and a UNESCO world heritage site. I can understand why!

Kazakhstan

these come from Lyubov in Almaty, Kazakhstan. It is rather a beautiful city, don't you think?

Another red ape for my collection. This one from Sumatra.

Russian Delivery

Today the Russian Post came through - two components of it anyway.

The first came from EvgenyN in Kursk

Which included these two lovely postcards of historical landmarks and also a whole bunch of stamps for my collection:



And the second came from Anastasia as part pf the Handdrawn Round Robin I organised.

Isn't it gorgeous?
