Vancouver 2010

In honour of the upcoming Winter Olympics in my favourite city in the entire world ... I have compiled a series of Vancouver/Canada/BC-loving cards to express not only my joy at their coming, but the entire city's!

These kinds of cards are everywhere, and being a die-hard fan of both Vancouver and the Olympics, I think it's marvelous. Vancouver is wonderful and everyone should know that--so what better way to spread the Vancouver-love than to send someone a card? So that's exactly what I did. :) The last one (which didn't scan very well because of the pin, sorry :S), is also from the Regional Assembly of Text, which I am definitely going to have to hit up sometime--soon!

Birthday Boy

I know, I know. I, the self-confessed card-addict who spends 90% of her free time wandering through stationery and card shops, struggle with this too. It is indeed quite difficult to choose cards for men. But, on occasion ... you find something indescribably perfect, universal and appropriate for every single man out there: a rotating card from The Regional Assembly of Text, Vancouver born and bred card company, ingenius in its simplicity.

Now, what guy wouldn't have a giggle about this--the truth comes out.

Genius. Sheer genius.

A Very Belated Happy New Year

Very sorry for the inattentiveness... but I hope that everyone had a good start to 2010! I mean, I certainly did ...

...mostly because it began with a BANG in NYC! I seem to be there a lot these days, and let's be truthful... I love it. I really used to think that New York was only second best to London, but I am starting to realise they are not competing with one another--they are just beautifully, wonderfully different.

Especially when it comes to museums. I adore the British Museum, but the Met is undeniably incredible in its own right. Plus, they both have really good postcards, right?

Well ... there's a brief snippet of my hiatus in New York. I'll keep the cards coming, I promise--especially since there's another big, commercialised card holiday up and coming: Valentine's Day.
