TBT: Dreaming about paradise...French Polynesia

Every Thursday I'm looking back at a card that I received in the past

Today, I'm sharing with you this card from Tahiti, French Polynesia

On my card, you can see Mo'orea, which means 'yellow lizard'

French Polynesia consists of over hundred little islands 

in the South Pacific Ocean, and Tahiti is the capital

French Polynesia is known all over the world as a popular honeymoon destination

I'd be very happy to visit such a breathtaking island for my honeymoon :)

Stamps with special sea-snails on them

It's true, they really are from Tahiti ^^

Do you like it too? Where would you go on honeymoon, if money was not an issue?

Would you choose a paradise like this too?

Thanks again for this postcard Sarah, it's one of my favourites! :)

3 postcards from Italy

My aunt and uncle visited Rome, Italy last month

and brought me 3 colourfull postcards :)

 

About 5 years ago, I visited Rome too and I loved it very much (especially the ice cream! ^^ )

Who else has been there already? :) What did you like the most about Italy?

What to do on a lazy Sunday... :)

 Yay, it's Sunday!

Time to sent out some postcards to people all over the world :)

Here's my pink 'bag of Happiness', because whenever I open it, 

I know I'm gonna do fun stuff :)

So what's in it?

First of all, of course, my collection of postcards

I go shopping for cards every 2-3 months, because it's a good excuse

to visit a big city or have lunch with a friend :)

I usually buy my cards in a small souvenir shop in Antwerpen, which is close to my hometown

The man who sells cards already knows me... A while ago he brought a box of old postcards for me,

that I could have for free! 

He's such a nice man and I can't even think about buying my cards elsewhere :p

I know that Belgian postcards are not really 'special', because it's not a so-called rare country

But... we do have attractive things! ^^

Last year I took these free entrance tickets for the Atomium and Mini Europe (great 

touristic places in Brussels, capital city of Belgium) and I like to add them to the cards that I send

Another thing that I like to add are small chocolates, wrapped with paintings of old Belgian houses

Yummy! ^^

Finally, I use stickers and pencils to decorate my cards

Last weekend I've bought some washi-tape too, the first tape shows paintings of camera's

and the other tape says: 'Enjoy the blue skies'

Colourfull stickers, flowers & cats & stars

My washi-tape! ^^

Now I can't wait to go back to my postcards again :)

How do you decorate your cards? How much time do you spent on it?

How important do you find it to receive decorated cards?

Have a nice Sunday! :)
