Collecting the States - 5 - Connecticut

Another postcard that a nice Postcrossing person sent me when I messaged them mentioning I still needed the state. It is a great postcard for me, too. I love lighthouses! It is the Saybrook Breakwater Lighthouse. It was built in 1886.  Here are the stamps that were included:

9 - Postcard from Japan

Isn't this impressive? I got a message on Postcrossing from someone in Japan wanting to do a direct swap.  I said yes of course! I love the postcard she chose to share. I have some other postcards from Japan, but not a lot. It is a place I would love to visit one day. This is a gorgeous example of it, that's for sure! Here are the stamps:

Collecting the States - 1 - New Mexico

One of my projects for 2012 was to collect a postcard from each of the 50 States of America. I am very close to completing this project! I thought I would count down and share what I have received/have from this project.

This is my postcard from New Mexico. It was sent through a direct swap on Postcrossing.com. I messaged people that lived in the few states I still need and asked them if they would want a postcard from here in exchange for one from there.

Here are the stamps:
