One from Brazil and One from the Netherlands

Daniela, who lives in Brazil, sent me this picture

of some bottles of oil, extracted from different trees. She

said they are supposed to cure wounds and even some

diseases--or so people believe. They are Indian

traditions that are still with us! She said the one

in the center, Oleo de Copaiba, is for everything from

bad colds to small cuts on the skin!

I think I'll not try them!

Thank you, Daniela, for the very interesting card!

Merel, sent me this beautiful multiview card

from Goes, in the Netherlands. Merel is

studying photography at the Royal Art Academy.

She says it is hard, but she loves doing it. She

wants to make a career of this hobby.

Thank you, Merel, for the beautiful card! I love

the windmills and the fountain by the water's edge!
