Time spend with a friend...

One of my favorites postcards are those related to drinks, especially red wines.

I just love this simple & beautiful picture with wise words ("Zeit, die mit einem Freund verbracht wird, ist niemals verloren"). That means "Time spent with a friend is never lost". That reminds me of another saying: The most precious gift you can give is YOUR time because you give a piece of your own life that can never be taken back.

The card came with two very lovely stamps:
The 62 Euro-Cents (2013) shows a glass of wine featuring Southern Styria, one of the Austrian Wine Regions and Sauvignon Blanc wine variety.
The 80 Euro-Cents (2015) is one of Europa stamps with Matador wooden toy construction set.

Thank YOU, Marianne !

Just a reminder

Today's mailbox was full with Postcards (12). And this one reminded me how beautiful life is and how important is to cherish every single moment of it. "Don't forget to be awesome" is made by Studio INKTVIS (2013) and printed in Netherlands by TheCardCompany. I got it from sanniekru, a Belgian forum user in a RR exchange: Belgium x World #216. She was kind enough to browse my huge favorites collection and see a copy. Thank you very much.

The stamps are awesome, too.

The 0.02 eurocents depicts  Bécassine des marais (Watersnip) by André Buzin, a Belgian artist who paints animals and flowers. The stamp has no date. Perhaps from 2003.

The other one, the 2€, is part of a larger collection of European Writers and show the portrait of the famous French writer Victor Hugo. The design was made by another Belgian artits, Jan De Maesschalck.

Thank You, Sandra !
