Sand Lizard, UK Stamp Card



Royal Mail issues some fantastic sets of stamps and often these are printed on cards too - as the value of the stamp itself is rather high, I will probably never have it used on the back, but this postcard is a wonderful addition to my lizard collection :)

As I have returned to postcrossing recently, this also meant joining different tags and RRs on the Postcrossing forum site. There are three (if not more) favourites tags, which means you get to tag the last person in the thread if you have a postcard from their album of favourites. Alas not much has changed since I last tried to participate - most people don't favour view- or tourist cards, which means its tough for someone from a country like mine where such cards are prevalent...In the last couple of months of stalking I managed to tag - twice. In return I was tagged by Rachel, who not only sent me this card but adorned it with such a great selection of stamps - many MANY thanks!

Hagia Sophia Mosaic, Turkey



This Comnenus Mosaic, located on the eastern wall of the southern gallery of Hagia Sophia, Istanbul, dates from 1122. It represents the Virgin Mary with the Child Christ in her lap; on her right side stands the emperor John II Comnenus, holding a purse as a symbol of an imperial donation to the church. On the left of the Virgin is the empress Irene, wearing ceremonial garments and holding a scroll.

Thank you Ezgi/melodia_ for this card from my favs, and the excellent heart-shaped stamp :)
any reason its upside down..?! lol

NI Multiples - Breakfast / Cheese

Breakfast


Sheep Cheese

I feel so lucky when i can tag a NI card! These are often offered as a special trade, and more often than not i have nothing to offer in return :(  Which is why i dont intend to actively collect these cards, sadly. For now i am happy to get an occasional card which represents something that i really like - in this case a fancy breakfast and yes CHEESE. :)))
When i finally get to travel to France i think i'll suffocate in cheese and wine :D

Thank you Greets for offering;
And thank you Sanne/Blue79 for tagging favourites :)
