OFFICIAL Card - Finland

Since joining Postcrossing two years ago I must say I have enjoyed all cards that have been sent to me. I won't deny that there have been a few that have made me think "gee, wonder why they chose that one for me" but nonetheless it has been welcomed into my collection. With that said there are some cards the I really like (read - squealing at the mailbox like) but I wouldn't want to actually say it at the risk of offending anyone who sent me one of those head scratching cards. This is one of those cards that I really like!

Marja lives in Turku, Finland with her husband and pet tortoise. This card she sent me arrived in a quick 6 days and shows the letter "S" and the Finnish word "Sina" which mean "you". Marja gave me a quick little Finnish language lesson as well as an art lesson as the card was designed by Ristomatti Ratia son of the founders of Marimekko. Anyone who know textiles will surely know that name. Marja even tells we she likes to watch the birds as she writes cards. A perfect card all around - great message, great design and a little brain candy for me too - thank you Marja!
