today ...

We received a post card and a "tag" parcel .

Our postcard comes from The Netherlands -  From a lovely lady called Yvonne  - she even has a cat that has the same name as Olivia :)




My "tag" parcel comes from "Manda10" in Hungary and was part of a cross stitch  -  which has to be one of the best "tags" to receive. I love sharing my passion for cross Stitch -  Olivia likes it best when we get Stickers :)






How does a "tag" work you say ?


Well your more or less choose a random person to send things too! And a random person also picks you to send things to as well. Its a little like Christmas with strangers :)

You just find a "tag" group that seems interesting to you e.g a postcard or stickers or cross stitch and tag the last person that has commented. you then message them and ask for there address and send on to them :)
Then some one might tag your comment and send you something :)
On the Postcrossing forum, there are hundreds to choose from ...

There is also a thing called "Swapbot"  -  but that's a story for another day as I only discovered it yesterday.

So go on get "tagging" and see what lovely things you will get zooming through your letter box :)
