So :D February is over and I sent out the first poscards^^ Now, as I said in the explanations, this year, I& #39;m using the cards I already have, because 1/ I have them 2/ budget reasons (and I& #39;ll probably soon be out of a job, so even more reason to o.o)
Now, sadly, I have a lot of cards but a limited numbers of sets :( So it& #39;s gonna be a bit repetitive, and I can& #39;t match each card with each person very much :( I& #39;m very sorry about it, so I& #39;m trying to make an effort on presentation :) Anyway, here goes~
~ Cards sent in February 1/4 ~
Art by Beatrix Potter, of course^^ and you& #39;ll see a lot more of that.

More from the Alfons Mucha set :)
And while I& #39;m still a bit sorry to not choose one card per person, I must say, I& #39;m having a lot of fun sticking things together. I like sticking things :& #39;D

Note before I forget: some of these cards were not *physically* sent yet. I figured it was a good time to send things to people so I still stuck them together and wrote them, but while the postal system is still working (at least in my country) after the confinement was instaured
I thought it would not be fair to give too much work to the postal workers that are not protected enough. So the latest cards that I "sent" were actually sent by pms, as photos.
So I& #39;ll send actually physically send them when the world gets safer again

I didn& #39;t have more of "The Tale of Peter Rabbit" (though I have more Beatrix Potter) for the bookmark, so I used the cover of a pretty notebook I finished, and bought from @hotarujaejae

I& #39;m sorry to say: none >< While I do roughly plan out when I& #39;m gonna send what so I don& #39;t get overwhelmed, I still only write and send cards when I actually *want* to. This month I& #39;ve felt a bit too numb for it, sorry :(

But I& #39;m less numb now, so I should get back to it in July :) I don& #39;t know whether I should physically send them yet ? I& #39;ll decide later... but I& #39;ll start writing them again^^
Also, I want to adress a thing that was pointed out to me this month: it& #39;s true that this thread is very, well, white. Because I& #39;m using cards from big cardsets, the same artists keep coming back, and yeah, it& #39;s all very white.
Promise, 2021 will be more diverse, as I get back to sending individually bought/chosen cards. I have a lot of them l can& #39;t wait to send :)

I& #39;m not sure who the art is by. It& #39;s a Mako-themed Asahi card set. I got it as a pretty gift (people seem to somehow think I love stationnary, no idea why).
Messed up a bit on what cards I used ^^" But the person still seemed happy, so yay.

For the rest now: as previously explained some cards weren& #39;t physically sent because covid and all. While the crisis isn& #39;t passed, I did start sending cards physically. As promised, I& #39;m adding a little something in the enveloppes.
Anyway here goes:
~"Cards" sent in July 3/4~
They& #39;re little "booklets" (?) I& #39;m making out of scraps of paper left from making enveloppes. At the end of the year everyone should have gotten a card and a booklet.

Some will get both at the same time, some will get them separately (this year was a mess), but that& #39;s the plan.
They& #39;re not exactly perfect but they& #39;re fun to make (though I did prick my finger a few times, haha).
And that& #39;s it for this month :)

In the next months, because I& #39;m doing the "send the cards I previously sent via dms" thing, there are gonna be more and more "booklets",

and less and less cards. I& #39;m not sure it& #39;s very interesting ?
That said, I started this thread last year to showcase the artists whose art I send to people, and this year, because of the reasons

explained at the start, there have been not many artists showcased, so one could argue that the thread was less interesting from the start... Oh well.
