Pink Saturday card

Good day everyone, and welcome to Pink Saturday!

I am joining with Beverly at How Sweet the Sound. Click on the links and see who else is joining the party.

 
This is a card I received through Postcrossing.  What is Postcrossing, you ask?  It is an internet project, where "The goal of this project is to allow people to receive postcards from all over the world, for free. Well, almost free! The main idea is that: if you send a postcard, you will receive at least one back from a random Postcrosser from somewhere in the world."
How it works:
Register, and then:
"1. request an address from the website.
2. mail the postcard to the address
3. wait to receive a postcard
4. register the received postcard in the system."
 
I have received cards from 62 different countries!  The card above is a hand-made card from Desiree in the Netherlands.  It is sweet and pink.  Pink postcards are NOT as common as you may think!
Happy Pink Saturday,
Viridian

August Postcard scavenger Hunt: My funniest postcards

A scavenger hunt hosted by Postcardy.

First, A Ken Brown favorite. My brother was at college living much like this when this card was published - much laughter in the family.

Postcardy says: "My funniest postcards are ones that stand out in my mind from hundreds of funny, but forgettable, postcards. I always remember these."

This next one I find horrible yet funny, and unforgettable. DO NOT scroll down it you are a sensitive soul.

Postcard scavenger hunt

Sent to Mr. Atwood, of Arlington MA, postmarked June 26, 1945.

"Dear Wexie, how would you like to catch all the fish in the picture on the other side? You know of course, that the famous fish company here is the Gorton Co. I suppose us Gortons are all distantly related. What are you doing now that school is over? Oceans of love, Grammy A."

I am participating in Postcardy's Scavenger Hunt #3. I had to search to find a fishy card!
