Fun creating maxicards together: The evergreen bougainvillea

This thorny, woody evergreen plant is found everywhere in Malaysia and it's one of the most popular flowering plant in our local gardens.

Fun and joy in maxicards

The creation of a maxicard involves the hunting of a postcard in concordance with the stamp and getting it postmarked at the place of concordance after the stamp has been affixed to the view side of the postcard.

The procedure looks simple, but quite often a beautiful maxicard is ruined by poor postmark(unclear or messy). Sad to say, there is no remedy to it and unlike in other fields of stamp collecting where "error" is well-liked, you are fearful of "error" here. Nevertheless, it's a rewarding hobby as every piece of maxicard you've realized reflects your pain and joy in creating it and you will sure to treasure it for life.

It's a journey to enjoy - from the "Miniature window" to the "Maxima world".
