These two kittens were photographed and them added to some roses. They look like the photo was cut and the cat was placed in and on top of the basket. Then made into a postcard.
In this blog I wish to share postcards from my collection with others, as there are many different catagories of postcards. I also will share what I am currently selling on Ebay. I like selling, buying and trading postcards. The Plus in the title is for the handcraft items I make and collect. Also for all the ephemera I collect.

My first twisted flowers
This is done with a long strip of fabric (here I used hem binding) twisted it and sewed to a background fabric. It really is a flower. Would look good on a floppy hat. I do need to practice and get better looking flowers, so I will twist away. I am learning this technique and other embellishments on
www. craftsy.com. They have some great classes.

And there the corn in many a sack

2 Cats decided to adopt us.......
I heard a meow on the deck and found a rather large calico kitten. She was a little skittish but looking for a home. Soon a black kitten showed up. Before I knew it they had a big dinner, lots of water and places to hide under the deck. I thought well I need mousers but they are on their own as far as survival. We have wild life and a busy highway. If they are still here in 3 months I will get them fixed.
They are so cute and a lot of fun but I wonder if they were dropped off on the highway. We live near the SPCA which is often closed.
Spotty and Blacky
Such a cute Calico kitten
He is so Frisky
Our 25 year old cat Little Killer is glad of the company
Joey is not so happy with the new editions to our family. Lets hope the bears, raccoons, Bobcats, or Mountain Lion do not get them. Or that old Highway!!
My previous post has Cat postcards.....must have known that they were going to show up.
