What clever and creative postcards. I love Lena’s shake and decorate idea! What a fun idea to send to my great niece’s and nephews. I may borrow that to do a shake and decorate birthday postcard. Curiosity question. Do you mail them in an envelope or do they hold up well going through the postal service?

Most of us put them in an envelope. Why dent you join us for February? We only had 3 to do januarys.

I’ve never made one. It sounds fun. I’ll make one to see if I’m up to par. February is birthstone.https://cdn.quiltingboard.com/images/smilies/smile.png

Please do one Blueridgebeverly, send it you may not think it is up to par , but it will be . when you receive one back you will be surprised how good your one is

Yes. Do join us Bev. I'm a February too. Amethyst.

M-Fay, sorry I meant February theme is birthstone. I’m a December baby. Turquoise. I’m trying to get creative ideas going.

Ahh turquoise is the one that has copper in it ...just a smidgean but its there. I have a turquoise pendant with just a trace of copper init

If anyone has some advice about resizing so I can post I would appreciate it...Thanks

My usual response to posting pictures (near the end of this post is a link about reducing):

We like pictures. In order to post pictures on Quilting Board, you will probably need to reduce or compress the picture to a file size that is smaller than 2MB. How to post images can be found at https://www.quiltingboard.com/attach...020-01-17-.pdf
Don't forget to scroll over to the far right to find and click on the "Upload" button.

I have found that only the big red "Reply" button or "Quote" work to give me the paper clip icon to work for adding pictures.
