Valletta, Malta

...and here's another card from a swap with Leena in Malta. It's been SO nice to swap with her, I'm hoping we'll get another chance some time next year. :)



Leena tells me that there are still a lot of these little shoops in Valletta. Apparently the shopkeepers manage to cram insane amounts of stuff in. I'd love to visit a shop like that! The wooden balconies are very beautiful, too, I really think I would take tons of photos if I ever got to visit Malta. :D



The stamp is from a set of 4 stamps issued earlier this year, depicting some of the Islands' natural treasures. This one here shows the Azure Window in Gozo.

Bookshop, Germany

One more official for today. This is another card from a forum member, this time 'elbe' was kind enough to surprise me with one of my favourite cards ever.


DE-755897


This could well be my most favourited received card, too, or at least one of the most favourited ones. So far 38 people have marked it as a favourite! Well, it used to be on my wishlist for ages, too, it's SUCH a beautiful card! For one thing, it's book related and that's always a good thing, plus it also has a bicycle on it, and the atmosphere in the shop looks super cosy. I love the warm colours of the shop contrasting with the blue of the shop front, too. Very nice!
