Teas

Another vice of mine is tea. I like it better cold, since it's so humid in Houston most of the year. This card has many different types of tea, along with some coffees.

7 wonders of the world: the great wall of China

I have two goals while swapping cards: one is to get any mosque cards or religious temples (funny given my views), and the other is to collect the 7 wonders of the world. So far I have about 3-4 (I will have to send myself Chichen Itza while i'm in Mexico!)  Hopefully I get to meet or talk to someone in my missing countries and countries that have the wonders! I got this card from a swap a few years ago. I believe this person was collecting cards for his girlfriend for her birthday. He was kind enough to send me one of the great wall. Thanks again!

Magnet card from China

I received a lovely card from a chinese opera - and it is a magnet! Very cool, it is a lot lighter than I thought it would be! It is very flexible and does indeed stick to the fridge. Very cool card to have in my collection. Thanks, Irene!

Big swap from China

Happy Wednesday everyone!

Today I got a wonderful surprise from Haomin from China. He has a HUGE swap album and I was able to pick only 5 regular cards and 1 3D card from his swap album, although i'm tempted to swap more now!

From left to right, I forget the cartoon, Shin Chan postcard, Chinese communist postcard, panda bear, and cartoon london postcard. 

Another 3D card for my collection.

Commemorates the 90 years of the communist party in China. This is a view of Tiannanmen Square. 

First 3D card from China

Happy Friday everyone!

TGIF indeed! My mailbox has been happy all this week, so I am grateful for that! Today I received a card from China thanks to a friend in Singapore. He had someone send it to me with beautiful stamps, and it was well worth the wait. This card commemorates 90 years since the founding of the Communist  Party of China, which is still the ruling political party. Thanks, Du!
