Hi Louise,
ReplyDeleteCould you provide me with more details of the image file called: 'mini-Greenland_kayak_postcard_drawing'? I wouldn't mind having that picture up on a wall, but I cannot find it anywhere. Any details as to the source of the file, or the source of the postcard itself? Thanks in advance! Kaia@live.nl
