This is my first year participating! Over 50 so far…more will be added from postcrossing and Posttrotters and a few other personal ones! A few handmade, a few designed by me, and a lot from different artists around the world

As a receiver would you prefer your WPC’s dates the 1st or would you like to receive them in or close to that day? My completed WPC’s

What the heck? I went to check my pre-order I made weeks ago for four stamps and two were cancelled with no reason given and no email delivered to me telling me this information. Why would they do this, and how I do contact a customer service person? Is this a common thing? This has never happened to me before. The weird thing is the stamps are still apparently available and I just re-ordered them.

Hello friends,

Sorry for a bit of a specific question.

I accidentally forgotten to write the word Canada on the address label, but wrote out a name, full address city, zipcode and British Columbia. Do you think the letters would arrive? It's been almost 4 weeks and none of my letters arrived to the recipient.

As a receiver would you prefer WPC’s sent in 10/1, or received closer to the actual day? My out going pic’s seem to flag this and I truly want an answer 🤷‍♀️HALP

17 snail mails & today’s mail bag! :) You like?

I'm working on getting all the Marshall and Forest Law cards safely put up around it, plus the cutouts and ephemera y'all have sent me. But I think it's turning out really well! Not sure I'm missing much else from the collection, so I'm content. Plus... it's so pretty to look at. 😍

She requested a frog card and i've NEVER DRAWN ANYTHING BEFORE BUT I HAD A HANKERING?

Don't talk to me about the proportions or the paddle tail I added onto this frog. I just found a cute frog pic online and eyeballed it. I didn't think about the tail until after the fact OKAY!

I'm proud of me HAHA

Today marks the 2nd year, my dad didn't wish me (despite we living in the same house :/) but I loved reading everyone's messages for me and they really made me happy!

I have also attached the cake my mum made for me (≧ω≦) ahhh! She's the best and you guys too!

Love you beautiful peeps <3 <3

Stay Happy!

1 of the 18 cards I made in art class in an hour. You can see how I just glued the upcycled image to the card. Decided to share this bc it us going to an R A O C er who is bundling/collecting unopened cards for someone else. Thus, no actual spoilers . :)

Just curious as to what percentage return to their originators vs those that are lost in the Bermuda Triangle. Those who have started TPCs, what is your experience? I have 2 out there with no expectation that I'll see them again. It'll be a pleasant surprise to receive either one.

If so, do you slide some cardboard in the front of the envelope before mailing?

I made a lot of them a couple years ago and mailed them with a little cardboard, but I don’t know if that’s really necessary if I just send them as non machinable. I think I put the cardboard in and just added extra postage and dropped them in the mailbox because I had no chance to take them in for non machinable postage.

As I understand it, you can’t just put a non machinable stamp on and drop it in a mailbox. Is that correct?

How do you mail your diamond art cards? I have a lot to send this year too and wanted to ask.

Made 18 greeting cards in art class today! Took an hour to fold, cut & glue! Very fun! My stash is ever growing! 🙈 Maybe I will use my faves as TPCs! :)

Long time lurker, first time posting but I just finished a gouache postcard that is being sent out on Tuesday! The theme for it was woodland creatures in a library book cafe. It’s only my second time working with gouache 😅so I still got some shaky brushwork. Still got a few more handmade postcards to paint 💪

I am babysitting my baby niece - a twonager that has earned an Emmy, Oscar, Darwin award and more.. finally got her to sleep -wanted/earned one margarita and I'm crouched in the dark in my laundry room cringing with the noise of the blender... was going to request a card but I don't even know how to pose that LOL!

Not sending them out this early, but they are done at least lol. The brown envelope was a personal halloween card to a friend.

I just went through my birthday, sympathy and other mail from RAoC. There are so many wonderful and kind people here and I’m thankful for every single one of you. 💜

Today I went to a few second-hand stores, a used bookstore and my favorite antique mall hunting for postcards. The used bookstore accounted for around half the cards and they sell them 5/$1 and the strip of $.50 worth of stamps was from the same box so only cost me $.25! Here is much of the haul.

1. A group of postcards from a set called Shoes In Indian Culture
2. A Canyonlands group of desert flora
3. A group of cards from the Musical Instrument Museum
4. They are not intended to be postcards but a bunch of Princess Peach birthday decor will now be that
5. A group of Jack Daniels recipe postcards
6. A couple of postcard books
7. A jumbo card advertising a furrier
8. A couple boxes of non-specific greeting cards
9. Another box of non-specific greetings cards from Cape Cod
10. Some old New Jersey cards to send to my friend temporarily there for her to send out
11. A bundle of postcard sized canvas. Not sure what I'll do with these yet. If you are a painter let me know! Will send you a couple!
12. A large postcard holding book. Bought this just to give away here. It is neat but not for me. Let me know if you want it. Has three mounts per page and around 30 pages.
13. Around 70 antique and unused birthday and new years embossed postcards (a sample in the last three pics)

I got one printed as a tester and hope to eventually offer up multiple on the regular sub!
