Pansies and Angels -Guest Heart Thursday

This is a beautiful postcard, but it reminds me more of Springtime, than Christmas.  Of course you can find hearts in the petals of these lovely pansies.  I love this artist.  What a joyous departure from the norm.  VERY cool.

Have a whimsically Merry Christmas!

A Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year -Postcard Friendship Friday #197

 

The kitten with the pink ribbon on the left reminds me of our special friend Toez the Polydactyl Cat when she was a kitten.  I've always welcomed cats as friends.  There's something special about their independence, capricious playfulness, mischievous personality which pulls at one's heart strings.

When Toez (otherwise known as little tiny keekat) deigns to come and sit upon my lap, all on her own--it just melts my heart.

I'm hoping for SNOW tonight.  Happy Postcard Friendship Friday!

A Cart Full of Hearts -Guest Heart Thursday

I had a hard time finding a Christmas card with hearts this time around--so I settled for this cutie with his cart full of hearts.  I just love the background of trees, pond and beautiful sunset.

Have a beautiful rest of the day!

The Little Drummer Boy

I have loved the story of the drummer boy since I heard it as a child.  When I was in high school we sang the drummer boy song in choir.  And of course at that time, there was a darling "stop motion" Christmas movie we watched on television this time of year.

When I was a little girl the beauty of the Christmas story, as told in the Bible, held a beautiful romance for me.  Santa Clause was all good and well--but my heart was held by the story of the shepherds, angels, magi, Mary, Joseph and baby Jesus.  This age-old story is still lovely to my heart.  

Though there likely was not a drummer boy who gave his song as a gift, I have always loved stories centered around the birth of this miraculous Child--imaginative, beautiful and inspiring.

Merry Christmas!

A Merry Chrismas -Postcard Friendship Friday #196

Merry Christmas to you!  Isn't this the cutest little child.  Those jammies look warm and comfy--and see how she is treasuring all of those Christmas goodies?

I adore this artist.  You'll be seeing alot of her in the days ahead.  By the way, I will wish you happy holidays--but more than that, MERRY CHRISTMAS!

Peace and Prosperity -Guest Heart Thursday

Today is Thanksgiving.  Here in American we celebrate family and harvest.  It is a time when family and friends gather and share the blessings of our lives.

Many of you do not live in America--therefore on this day of Thanksgiving, it is important for me to tell each of you that I am thankful for you.  I ask our Creator to place upon you a blessing of peace, joy and prosperity.

Have a blessed weekend!

Cordial Thanksgiving Greetings

Hahahaaa--this gives a whole new meaning to the idea of dressing the turkey!  Have a fabulous day!

Happy Thanksgiving!

This is by far the strangest Thanksgiving postcard I've come across.  It is beautifully drawn with lovely colors and printing, but oddly enough, these two pioneer children seem to be frightened because of the arrows in those pumpkins.  The poetry doesn't seem go along with the picture either.  Perhaps the children are being protected by the hand of the Almighty?  What do you think?!

Hearty Thanksgiving Greetings -Postcard Friendship Friday #195

 

This is the second postcard of a lovely Indian maiden with her contribution to the Thanksgiving feast.  What a beautiful young woman--and so accomplished!  I am a smidge Native American, so I find these wonderful postcards honoring Native Americans to be especially delightful.

I wanted our friends from Russia to know you have been missed.  I didn't see you dear ones for some time and felt worried.  I'm glad to see you are back.

Have a lovely weekend and Happy Postcard Friendship Friday!

Turkeys on a Fence -Guest Heart Thursday

What a lovely scene.  Here they are, turkeys on a fence--settled in for the night. sharing their adventures, I'm sure, of how they avoided being caught for the Thanksgiving table! 

You are probably wondering where the hearts are in this beautiful postcard.  On the right hand side at the fence line near the first gathering of cornstalks, you can see a little red flower in the shape of a heart.  (grin)

Have a lovely weekend, and Happy Guest Heart Thursday!
