and they're off!
i finally finished my postcards for hulaseventy's summer postcard swap this weekend and dropped them into the mailbox last night. as i covered both sides with designs, i ended up having no room left to write on them, so had to include a note with them. my postcards represent summer showing weather charts (note the "H" - high pressure system), "21" for the first day of summer and the wood represents the logs we sit on at our beaches here on the west coast that roll off the logging barges and drift to shore. yay summer and thanks andrea for hosting this fabulous swap! i can hardly wait to see mine!
