Just Seventeen (again!)

Well so much for writing a regular blog.  All very well until you get struck down, for over a week, with a chest infection and sinusitis.  I don't take enforced breaks easily and was becoming very frustrated, towards the end, with my lack of capacity.  But hey ho nearly there now.
So on to my latest offering. 

While checking out my local charity shop recently I came across this lovely collection of postcards - a real blast from the past.  Fabulous!  But curiously they are all addressed to the same recipient.

25 years ago, teenage girls were busy sending the free postcards, from their favorite pop magazine, to enter a prize draw for some haircare products!

I wonder what those girls are doing and where in the world they are now?

My burning question, however, is where have these postcards been hiding for the last 25 years?  What's the story behind that then?  I like my work, the products I make and the materials I use, to have a story behind them, a history - I'd really like to know the real one here.
 

 But, wow, check out these pretty boys!!  Got that teenage weak-knee feeling?  Oh yes!!

 My collection of 1980's Postcard Notebooks.

So revel in all that 80's gorgeousness and enjoy!!
