The Twilight Saga


I thought it was only fitting to post these cards today, since tonight at midnight the 3rd movie of the saga will premier. I'm excited to go see 'Eclipse', but have to wait until the week-end to go, because of work. I definitely love seeing Edward and Bella together!!!!

I mentioned in my profile, that I'd love to have some cards related to the 'Twilight' series and I received some really awesome cards in the mail this month. I'm so happy to get them, because I haven't been able to find them here anywhere.




This card I received not only once, but 3 times, wow. I was so happy to receive them. It just made my day to find them in my mail box. Even though I have more than one, each one of them is very special to me and many, many thanks go out to Sheila from Portugal, MarianneJS from the Netherlands and Maija from Finland. Hugs to you all and thank you so very much for thinking of me and sending me this awesome card. I looooove it! They all sent me this card for the June RR. What great fun!!!

The 1st stamp is from Finland and a really cool one and also the postmark.



This one is from the Netherlands and has 3 wonderful stamps on it.



This one is from Portugal showing a big avocado. Great one!




This really awesome card of Bella was the very first one I received for the 'Twilight' series. I looooove it and it made me very happy. Thank you so very much to Katie for sending it and bringing joy to my mail box. It was for the May RR. Katie is the host of the Round Robins and has been doing a wonderful job and I really enjoyed joining each month. I received some really beautiful, gorgeous cards.



This last one shows the Cullen clan in the high school cafeteria. It's a scene from the 1st movie 'Twilight'. It's a wonderful card and many thanks go out to Svenja from Germany. I looooove it!

Thank you to all of you for sending me these cards. You've made me very happy!!!!



I like this cute little boat stamp and also the flower stamp.

Vietnam




I received these two gorgeous cards from JoinHanoi for the May RR. Thank you so much for these beautiful cards Jo. Hugs! She always sends such fantastic cards. I love them!



This beautiful place is called Ha Noi. Oh, I'd love to take a leisurely stroll through those beautiful gardens. It's such a lovely place. I love the pink blossoms and that great bridge. Wow, what a breathtaking place.


The stamps are so beautiful too with all the colors on it. Really so pretty!




This is Ha Long Bay. It would be awesome to take a boat ride through there enjoying the beautiful scenery. Vietnam is a really beautiful place and I hope that some day I can go there, but for right now, I'm enjoying the fantastic views on these lovely cards and dream about going there.



A really beautiful stamp on this one too. I love the colors and the detail of the picture.







Wellington, New Zealand


Wow, my first card from New Zealand and a map card at that. I love the characters on this card. It's such a fun card and I love it and it's a great addition for my collection. Wellington is the capital of New Zealand and it looks like it'd be an awesome place to visit. Yeah maybe some day!!!


Thank you so much to Loopydog for sending me this wonderful card for the May RR.

Love the stamp too. It's like another postcard view on a stamp. Beautiful!




Myrtle Beach, South Carolina


Yeah, it's finally Friday and I'm off this week-end. I'm sooo happy to have 2 days off for a change. I really need it, because I'm just totally exhausted.
Right now, I'm at Panera's enjoying a coffee mocha and a bear claw pastry. Love those, yum!!! It just feels good to be out and not have to worry about having to get home and get ready for work.



I've decided to show this card. It's a real fun, colorful card and I love it. I've been to Myrtle Beach before and it's an awesome place with lots to do and the beach is really nice too.
A big 'Thank You' goes to atotalnobody for sending me this great card for the March RR.

Alligators and Crocodiles



What an awesome card! I totally love this card. Not only does it have alligators and crocodiles, which I love, but it's also my very first Nouvelles card and they are really sooooo cool!
A big 'Thank you' goes to Perfecta from France, who sent me this amazing card for the May RR.

The card shows all kinds of species of alligators and crocodiles from different parts of the world. It's just perfect for me!!!





Here is the stamp and a very clear postmark from a postmark machine, which luckily didn't damage the card.





Crocodile




This totally awesome card came from AJ-Person of Finland for the May RR. I absolutely love this card! Thank you sooo very much Anne for sending me this cool card!

A few years ago I went to a place called 'Alligator Adventures' in South Carolina and they really do jump out of the water like that. It was really amazing to watch. I loved it there! I guess people would say I'm kind of weird, but I find them (alligators) very fascinating. They're such cool, amazing creatures! LOL.




I love this Aurora borealis stamp. It's awesome!
