About gemd...

I am a mother, wife, school teacher. I enjoy ethnic foods, writing, reading, learning, photography and art. make handmade cards, collage images and the like, so if you want one, just ask.

I also feel place shapes a person so a card from your town, that you chose, really is a piece of you, how magical. I am especially interested in cards from small towns and why you choose to live there.

I am especially looking to receive:
*Landscape/scenery
*cultural
* Cards from Africa,the Middle East, former Yugoslavia countries, and tropical Islands (Caribbean and Pacific).

My goal is to receive a card from every country, US state and territory, every Canadian Province, and off-shore provinces/territories/etc of other countries.

Your card does not have to be stamped/postmarked from the place...meaning if I want a card from the Bahamas and you have one but you're in France, send it anyways! I even take cards from other people that you might not want; I have cards from thrift stores that are addressed to people I've never met and that's ok with me.

If I get your address via swap or randomly, I will try and send you a card asap but it usually takes me a week because I have to go to our crowded post office to get stamps and then again to mail it, along with my toddler in tow. But do know I send them as quickly as can be.
