Maria’s chosen postcard theme for this weekend is Patterns & Prints.
Flickering through my postcrossing cards from last year, some “owl patterns” stood out for me:
From Russia, April 2016. Card printed in Finland.
From France, May 2016.
From Czech Republic, June 2016.
From Finland, June 2016
Whoo-hoo there… Are you an early bird or a night owl? 
I’m neither, really. More like the owl on the right, both in the early morning and late in the evening!
Postcards for the Weekend 50: Patterns & Prints
France and Finland are my favorites. The french one looks embellished! But maybe it is just a very realistic painting.
ReplyDeleteGinny, some of the details on that card are printed in "gold", to which the scanner does not do full justice :)
DeleteOwls, definitely one of my favorite critters.
ReplyDeleteSame here, Janet :)
DeleteI love all of these, I used to collect owls, for many years. but now have none. but I still love them..
ReplyDeleteSandra, I have owls on my "favourites" list on Postcrossing; which is why my collection keeps growing... :)
DeleteI love all these owls (a favourite of mine, as well). I forgot to post something for this weekend.
ReplyDeleteOwl is a personal favorite! I love that postcard from France. Very nice embellishments on those two.
ReplyDeleteI've been investigating my hordes of post cards collected (ie not thrown away) over the last many decades. It's something I've never really looked at before for some reason. I'm glad that I've kept them though.
ReplyDeleteBefore I joined postcrossing, I just "kept" a lot of cards rather than "collected" them, too...
