We got postcards too!
I got beautiful seashells from Nina (perfect, perfect, thank you)....and from little man a gorgeous moment of serenity that will sit on my desk and give me a momentary break now and then. I love this game! Scoote got one card, too....but I'll let her share later. In the meantime, we'll just say that I'm gloating! We also have a couple new additions to the list! I'll get those together and PM folks later.....Outlaw, your mailbox was full again...so if I can't get them to you before I leave, I'll mail you a copy snail mail. Our next cards will be from the Bahamas baby! We leave Monday!

Beautiful Postcards!!
We got four today!! And they are as beautiful and unique as the people that sent them!!
Jo and Scoote, What an amazing picture!!! (And idea! I LOVE this!) I've decided to make a collage on one of the walls in the computer room! Thank you! Sunshyne & TC, *Laughing* Too cute!!! Brought a huge smile to my face!! So glad the weather is beautiful for you!!! Enjoy your travels!!! Thank you for the sweet note!! LittleMan, Your postcard took my breath away! That building has a million stories to tell, and it's beauty is amazing. Thank you for sharing!! Nina, What a perfect postcard for me! My beautiful neice is Japanese, I will save this postcard for when she is older...perhaps in a scrapbook for her! Thank you so much! We will be sending some from our hometown next week and Cherokee, NC the week after! July will bring the family reunion in Ohio and the fall will bring a trip to the beach! Jo & Scoote, I hope you have an amazing time in the Bahamas!!

So as Jo said we got postcards today...I only got one,but it was such a cool one(thanks Little Man that was an awesome pic). I figured Ninas just got separated in the mail so altho i initially bummed i realized that when we get back ill just have one more than Jo(now IM gloating )
anyway this really is a cool idea and im glad its going so well and that everyone is loving it. ok im off to eat some s'ghetti and stalk ppl....hope everyone is having a great Sat night! |

Hard Say'n, Not Know'n
Postcardians: What do you think of BFP postcards?
I came up with the following design ideas: (all to be used with appropriate permissions)
The post cards could be a fundraiser medium and/or a scholarship medium. A post card of June's stink eye alone, could pay for someone's airfare to Little Rock... I pitched the idea of BFP postcards to Medusa. She would like to know what folks would like to see on an official set of BFP postcards. OK folks...think of ideas and weigh in. Who knows, we could even have a postcard design contest We need consensus on design ideas...which I am sure we will arrive at in a relative sense after 1181 posts about, permissions, copyright infringement, disclaimers, legal ramifications, transparency, size, font, color, tone, spacing, alignment, general appropriateness, equitable geographic representation and cultural sensitivities around folks who may be offended by postcards... or for whom postcards induce general fright and/or explosive diarrhea. If necessary we can ask admin to install, by popular vote, a team of physicians to be consulted prior to mailing. Yours in postcardville, Outlaw

After a fun-filled weekend, we are back from Pensacola. I can't believe that I managed to get all the postcards addressed and mail out yesterday before we left!
I got the list of the additional people that joined in the postcard fun AFTER we got home, so I don't have any Florida postcards to send them. But, I'm sure that I can find something to send them from around these parts We did come home and find beautiful postcards from Jo & Scoote, Wil and Nina. THANK YOU! I look foward to seeing many more from all over! |
