benevolent postcard studio: august

For the August BPS mailing, I designed a blueberry lemon postcard.

I used my scallop scissors (because really, they should be employed at all possible opportunities) and sewed a bright lemony border to frame some Haymarket blueberries.

On the back, I printed a recipe for blueberry lemon bread. And since my postcard was headed to a metric-system-using country (in other words, someplace other than the U.S., Liberia, or Burma), I remembered this time to convert the units for the ingredients.

You should not be at all impressed by my unit-converting abilities. I discovered allrecipes.com offers an extremely handy U.S. to metric system converter.

Piret, the recipient, let me know that the postcard reached her in Estonia by leaving a lovely comment right here on this blog.

  1. Your mama-llama is always impressed by your resourcefulness!!! Where does your brain come from that you can remember to convert from our system of measurement to the metric system?!? My hat is off to you, Ms. Maszi!
