Postcard from Philippines #1

I remember when I was in elementary, we have a project to buy postcards that feature famous World wonders in Philippines. One of them is the Banaue Rice Terraces or in tagalog "Hagdan-hagdang palayan nang Banaue". It's a man made terraces of rice plantation. The indigenous people called Ifugao made it with their hands and man sweat hard work. I haven't seen this spot for real and hoping to see it someday when I visit back to Philippines.

Thanks Mommy Chris of Mommy Journey, I received my first postcard swap from her when I first started this postcard collecting hobby in April 2011.


New Update, Ed's zazzle store and Mel's new hobby

The feeling of Fall season will start any time soon, so my husband I are planning to do more art stuff indoors. We are productive in this hobby during cold seasons. We enjoy more family bonding outside during Spring and Summer. So yeah, it has been a long time we haven't got back writing in this blog. My husband is busy adding more graphic art to his zazzle store lately. He was so happy to receive his first $50 check 4 months ago so he got inspired in doing online stuff because of that. You can check out his store here: The Thundering legion: Home: Zazzle store.


As for me, I am into postcard hobby which I started this April. I have 40 plus postcards on hand and many more coming. I will be featuring these one by one as I love exploring other places and their beauty. So far I am joining 3 postcard groups online. My profiles are in postrossing.com here, postcrossing enthusiast in Facebook and World in Postcards in yahoo. In postcrossing, you can sign up for free and can automatically send 5 postcards to 5 addresses. In postcard enthusiast, only the moderator can add members there. So be sure to friend her first then ask if you can be a part of the group and start making friends with other members. You can post the available postcards you want to send and the members will be interested to swap with you. In World in Postcards, its my first time to join there yesterday and so far the members are friendly. You have to ask approval of your membership to the moderator. It is for free. And once approved, you can start swapping in their available open polls. I also started an oil painting class in three sessions now and my first painting will be finished soon. I will be joining our local art group's Fall art show this October. So I will be posting my art adventures here soon.
