Post Card from the past


I joined a postcard swap. The swap hostess will bind in book form. Since I have a collection of very old ones, I thought I would use one as my inspiration. You can't see it from the pix but I've used a tiny glue pen and "foiled" around the small flowers, lace and roses in gold. It really does resembles the original. Who is Captain Augustus Butterfield? Why does Rebecca want to be his friend and not his lover? What was their argument about? Who wrote that poem? I'll never tell.

Oooooh! I love reading notes/letters from the past and speculating, daydreaming, and sometime building those tiny bits into full fledged stories. This is pretty!
