Handmade from Sweden with cats

The same Swedish pen pal who sent me the fabulous Swedish postal museum postcard also sent me this handmade card. The textures, layers, and glitter are lovely, but I think the cat stamps are my favorite part!



Here's a closer look at those awesome stamps.

Swedish Postal Museum postcard painting

A pen pal from Sweden sent me this amazing postcard of a painting by one of her favorite artists, Hans Arnold - and the building depicted is the Swedish Postal Museum! How lovely.



It also featured these excellent stamps! I don't get a lot of mail from Sweden, so they are extra-special.

Does anyone else marvel at the different names we have for countries than they have for themselves? That always intrigues me. Germany is Deutschland, Sweden is Sverige, Finland is Suomi, etc...
