Belarusian Easter Postcard

I know Easter has been gone for a while now, but I'm eager to post a few things about this postcard received in Holiday Card RR (E55/2). It shows a colored kulich (a spongy yeast cake that is traditionally baked for Easter Sunday in Poland, Belarus, Ukraine and Western Russia) and dyed red Easter Eggs, near a white blossomed tree and willow catkin branches.
The text "Са Святам Пасхi!" (which means Happy Easter in Belorussian) is written in golden color, the same used in the folk motive on the right.
The Postcrossing stamp (designed by Inga Turlo) was issued in 2014. The Letter N is equal to the surface tariff of a postcard abroad Belarus. More information about the stamp can be found either on Belpost site or on Postcrossing blog.

Thank you, Alena !
