Lovin' My Antique Postcards

I have shown you numerous examples over the last two years of what I like to do with my antique postcards. Framing them is still a favorite. Here is one of my most recent examples. This lovely birthday card in a frame with aqua rhinestones, and a matching brooch make a lovely pair, don't you think?
And I have also been making greeting cards with some of them to sell in our booth:
A few more:
And I always display them with my holiday decor. But I also love to just plain admire them any old time.
I think they're all beautiful.

  5. Old postcards are one of my favorite things. So far I keep them in a big photo album where I can view both sides because there is so much charm in the writings. Twyla
