Postcard #9 - Switzerland

This week finds us in Switzerland.  When I did my fact finding on Switzerland I was having trouble deciding on what I wanted to do.  I love the flag, checked out the costumes of the country, famous landmarks, art, Heidi and the landscape.  So my postcard is about the
landscape.  My postcard was done by paper piecing all of the items, a little paint and a little stickles. Front:


Story line continues:  This week the postcard is from Ann to her husband John.

Dear John
John just wanted to let you know how much I love you.  Thanks for taking care of Andrew so I could come to Switzerland with Zoey to the ski resort to help her mend her broken heart after learning Jon Paul was married with 3 children.  She fell while skiing and broke her arm so now I am on mended heart and mended arm duty.  Give Andrew a hug and a kiss for me.  See you soon.  Love and Kisses Ann.

Another week completed......we have to wait and see where we go next.
