The annual XMAS card postcard exchange
It’s that time of the year again, and you know how I feel about it.
But the question is are you up for it again?
I will design a brand new Girl postcard, which I am going to have printed in a card shop in a special very limited edition. It is not going to be your typical Christmas card, there is no Christmas tree on it nor any other Christmas references. It’s probably going to be more of a New Year card to be honest, but I am not sure yet. It can be anything.
It will be a double card in full colour and there will probably be a quote of some sorts, you know the style. It is not going to be the image you see on the top of this post by the way.
Now, you want one of those extremely-limited-edition-due-to-be-a-collectors-item-cards won’t you?
Sold out!
Cool.
Here is the deal.
I’ll send you one and the only thing you have to do is to send me a card back.
That’s easy – I hear you think.
I know, too easy!
That’s why I have one more rule:
Do not send me a Christmas card in return. NOT. Please. NOT. Really. NOT.
I want a card that fits into this theme: loveactually
So get creative. You can make one yourself. Take a piece of paper and draw a heart on it. Or cut out a picture of Bill(y Mack) and send it, that will make me ecstatic! You can also just buy a card in the shop, just as long as it fits in the theme!
All the cards I receive will be on display in the Love Actually gallery that will open here on the website as the cards come in. (don’t worry it will be anonymous)
So – if you are up for it, leave a comment and send me your address and I’ll send one to you.
The reason why I announce this already now is because I have to order them not too long from now. The cards will of course not be send before somewhere in December so there is time enough for you to get creative or to start looking for the perfect card.
Just a note:
I won’t send you the card before somewhere in December.
And please wait with sending yours until somewhere in December too (as that’s when I will be in my winter depression).
I will first gather all addresses and will then send a mail out with my address in it (might take a while, so please hang on!)

Have your say
I’m up for it! :) I’ve actually taken a liking to drawing postcards and leaving them random places for people to find. I think I already have an idea for the one I’ll send you.
I’m in!
Ooh, we’ve gone all red!!
Me again, Charles Paris just said “Jammy Dodgers!!!”
(I missed the second episode:()
Grigorisgirl – that comment is comment of the year. Officially.
Bloody hell, I am going to listen to Charles as we speak!
I’ll drop you a mail about episode 2 ;-) He is so cool, you have to hear it.
I’ll have one of your extremely-limited-edition-due-to-be-a-collectors-item-cards, too, please. Even for the price of a return card fitting the theme. And when – in a couple of years, rather sooner than later – you’ll be a famous director, your cards will become expensive and sought-after, and I will treasure mine and know I could be rich if only I sold them…
And you can count me in too! :)
YES, ofcourse, I want one of your famous Postcards, Thank you!!I make one speccialy for you too;o-)
Yes, please!
:-) Need you ask??
Oh definitely … please count me in. I will set to work to create one on the theme. Did I tell you that I’ve taken up beeswax collage?
Do you still have my address from ‘The Girl’ tour?
Yes, please!
I’ve got a splendid LoveActuallyCardmaking idea ! Sign me up please ;o)
Oh – am I starting to look forward to December!
I guess it scared off all the men though :)
Mmmm….., yes, after contemplating my ability to create a non-Xmas card for several days I have decided to stand up, be a man, be counted. Yes, you’ll get one from me. Guess this late reaction rules out being a Leithammel.
:-D
@Joachim – you are brave! And between you and me, you are not the only man signing up ;-)
Please count me in! I emailed my address a few days ago and forgot to comment.
If I am not too late……
@Winter solstice – you picked up the last one :)
The cards are sold out now!
