The Tap Stamp

A few times recently I have seen on people's blogs this weird and wonderful stamp from Spain.  On card 2462 (shown on my clock postcard blog as No.15) from Eva I recieved it.



It reminds me of the pictures of the Dutch graphic artist, M. C. Escher.

Two more Findus cards

2347 - From Monica in Sweden:-


It is Findus, it is a cat, it is reading...  Where on earth am I going to file it?

2350 - From Eva in Morocco.  This card meant a lot to her so it was very kind of her to part with it.


2336 - Stamps from Ukraine

I have featured stamps from Ukraine before and have received many more than I have blogged about.  But I had to mention this one -  Katya often sends me minaiture sheets and this is one of the nicest yet:-

Clocks


I have decided to collect postcards and mail art of CLOCKS during 2015. They can be clocks in any form - I bet there is a clock postcard in your collection of cards to send. So any will be gratefully received and will be posted on a blog specifically devoted to clock cards - see here.  




If you haven't corresponded with me before please feel free to e-mail scriptorsenex at gmail dot com to ask for my address. All cards and mail art received will generate a card from me to you so if we are not regular correspondents please put your address on the card. 
Thank You!

Findus



2188 - It was Monica, my Swedish friend, who introduced me to Findus the cat and his owner Pettson. (Can cats have owners?  I think not!).



Since then I have had two more (2279 and 2293) from Susanne.




Aren't they delightful.
