tea greetings

I have never seen another postcard in this tea leaf reading series, but I haven't looked too hard. I think I will try harder in the future. I think it's a neat idea and I love anything about tea. Well, not anything, I am picky about the images and tea I like, but I am a fan, for sure. As evidence by my tea inspired Pinterest board.

The postcard above was sent Kansas on Aug 27th, 1908. It was sent to a Mrs Ira Hicks in Los Angeles from a woman named Belle.  Mrs Ira Hicks noted on the top with a pencil that she responded on Sept 13th.

This sweet card above opens up and has a lovely friendly poem inside and is signed by Mabel Mallory.

Today is Postcard Friendship Friday. You can go to the host blog The Best Hearts are Crunchy and visit other postcard blogs participating.

I have been spending a lot of time with Valentines lately. There were a lot of great ones at the Postcard Club meeting on Saturday and I got a good hunk of them. Valentines are just so charming and sweet. It's hard to pass them by. I don't think of myself as a collector of Valentines and yet, I seem to do it.

Here are two I am keeping for myself.

I will be posting more Valentines this week, but please visit the shop to see what's all ready there.
