What did you acquire for postcrossing?

Today I bought New Year’s cards * - *

I think I’m more happy with them than the people who get them:face_with_hand_over_mouth: :evergreen_tree:

I only just recently got back into postcrossing. I found a few cards from years ago and it was like a switch - I’m back.

So…. I bought some more stamps. Then bought some more cards. Stamps. Some tape. Some stickers. Some more tape. More stamps. Some markers. Some postcrossing id stickers. Some glue. Some more stickers….

I tend to get very involved with my hobbies, and that’s ok. It’s nice to have an interest that brings so much joy.

Some X-mas postcards again.

The one with the owl is kind of a word play. It mimicks the sound of an owl and the Christmasy Hohoho.

The lower one says “… it was the cat”

These Christmas postcards I found yesterday. They are from a label called Janos Angeli. Never heard of them before.

And my last order arrived.

i didn’t plan on buying even more cards, but there are two postcard boxes i’ve had my eye on for a while now and i got a gift card for a webshop that sells them. one of them is ‘the wild cards’. saw some photos on the forum and i’m so happy i bought it. i think it’s quite cheap as well, for the quality and amazing beauty of all the cards.

Well I was on holiday and then I found a cute gift shop and when I went inside it was just a candy store for Postcrossers!

All the brands everyone talks about, just in a physical shop! It was a first for me :blush:

I kind of promised myself to first send out my current stock, so I managed to only buy 8 cards:

I’m also in love with the Gameboy cards, I might have squeed when I found those in a box. My boyfriend was surprised that I bought so many of them?!

Went a bit overboard buying stamps this week but I am running low…got Valentines, Lunar New Years (old & new), some of the last Native art ravens, plus an assortment of low & high denominations. All together $150 USD as I get my account going again.

I ordered Easter postcards so I’ll be prepared when I need them! :smiley: Holidays often catch me by surprise and I’d rather have too many cards, haha.

I had to wait a bit longer for my Christmas presents to arrive…but here they are :star_struck:

Since I’m now using my fountain pens for postcards, I can totally justify buying some more water-resistant and waterproof inks (I like colour :rainbow:)

I love having these illustrations from classic Swedish children’s books.
