Hello Henk,
ReplyDeleteI wanted to let you know of two things.
First the good thing. the Festival of Postcards White Edition (which includes your Christmas card entry) has been posted here:
http://acanadianfamily.com/2010/01/07/a-festival-of-postcards-6th-ed-white-part-1-vintage-postcards-altered-mail-art/
The bad news is that I've been having technical problems with the post. The link is incorrect and I am for the moment technically unable to correct the post. Anything edits I make cause ALL image links in the post to be lost.
I am going to try to fix this - if I cannot I am sorry and I will publish a special post just about your postcards to make up for it.
