My Netherlands friend came up with this idea. She had her stamps printed and now ready to travel around the world. and so, I came up with this project. I name it PROJECT 101: Postcard Stamp.
What is PROJECT 101: Postcard Stamp?
I got fond of stamped and written postcards. Not just written postcards but "helpful" cards: Colorful cards from different countries filled with much information on the back. And with the little help of picasa's collage tool, I am planning of making a series of postcrossing stamps.
Where do I get the postcards?
Most of them are from postcrossing's official card, tag games, and exchanges. I also receive various respond through private email for exchange or just a surprise from someone (like my pals or friends) so you will be seeing some of them here too.
Why am I doing this project?
Just get tired of receiving blank postcards in envelope, and they could be that costly too. Another, I don't have much time organizing envelope swaps often. Learning is one of my top priorities so why not learn so much from my hobby. A postcard or two a week wouldn't hurt my pocket I think.
What topics would I like to know?
UNESCO, Capital Cities, Castle, Traditional Women, Children, Penguins, Aurora Borealis, Mapcards, Landmarks, Mosque, Kaaba, Mecca, Churches, World Languages; anything beautiful.
How do I get it done?
I learned that our local Post Office has a "Personal Stamp" service. You just have to pay certain amount of money (it is quite cheap. i've asked the person in-charged) and they will print you the design you want. Of course T&C applied. =)
Time limit: 3 months
Let us pray that this project will work out!
