I received this nice vintage card from Belgium today by way of Tamara. It features Centenary Palace. Located in Brussels, Belgium. The building was built for the Brussels International Exposition of 1935. In today's times the building hosts a number of trade fairs and conventions. The architecture design is exemplary. I'm sure this is quite a beautiful sight to see.

The stamp used is a butterfly called the Vanessa atalanta. The artist is Marijke Meersman. Released in 2013 as part of the Vlinders set.

Amara sent the above card to Thailand.

Silke requested her card be sent in an envelope. She had cats on her requested postcards so I thought this would be a cute and perfect pick for her from Florida. Sending to Belgium.

Danielle works in a prison and requested jail/prison postcards. I really wish I had one of the Old Jail in Saint Augustine, but I did not. Instead I chose this one of Castillo de San Marcos. I hope she likes it. This one is being sent to Netherlands.

Marie likes vintage postcards. I love this postcard for many reasons. One being the vintage feel it has to it. This one is being sent to Czech Republic.

In the above photo, the striped envelope is going to my penpal Karen in Hong Kong. The Stitch envelope is going to a Postcrossing user by the name of Shen who sent me some really cool things from China so I'm sending some things in return. The pink envelope is the envelope I put Silke's postcard in.
