For many years, my shop followed one simple idea:something for everyone. For almost 14 years, I created postcards in many different styles, moods, and themes. Cute and serious. Colorful and minimal. Illustrated and photographic. The goal was always the same: to make sure anyone, no matter their taste, could find at least one postcard that […]

(and why they work year after year) Choosing a postcard for Postcrossing often has very little to do with how beautiful the card is. Most of the time, the real question is much simpler: will this card actually work for this person? After years of packing orders, reading profiles, and sending postcards myself, I’ve noticed […]

Last week I received a special email: a note from Postcrossing congratulating me on my 17th anniversary with the project. Seventeen years!
