Happy Easter!

Happy Easter to all of you, who celebrate it, 
and Happy Spring to the other ones!


This is the Easter card I sent to Ivana.


I decorated the back side with a big light colored egg over which I could write.

Edvard Munch in Snow


I made this card to Miwa from a picture which I took in Oslo, Norway, in February, when there was the opening of the Nordic World Ski Championships. The center of Oslo was then full of fantastic snow sculptures made based on the paintings of the Norwegian painter Edvard Munch. The sculpture on this picture is based on his painting "The Sick Child".


I made a foldable card, and used on the backside a picture of a snow sculpture made based on Edvard Munch's painting "Scream". 


I felt this simple envelope decoration made by silver and gold metallic stamping inks was suitable for the snowy delivery.

WAR IS OVER!


This very interesting looking "WAR IS OVER!" letter arrived from Bruno in Brazil. 


He also sent me a bunch of this beautiful Le Petit Prince paper. 
He had used a cute tiny paper clip to connect the note papers. I love the paper clip, I've never seen this small! The red one in this picture is the one he used, the one on the right side is a normal size paper clip to clarify the scale.

Letter to Bruno


This is my latest letter to Bruno. 
I decorated the note paper with black and metallic ink pens. 



To the envelope I used black ink pen and metallic stamping ink directly from the stamp pad.

Xu Wei


Hsin-Yi sent me this beautiful postcard of a painting by a Taiwanese Ming Dynasty era artist Xu Wei.
I love traditional Chinese way of painting and like this card very much.



The Taiwan Museum stampings are marvellous and the whole card backside layout really lovely.

Thank you very much Hsin-Yi!!
