that's really cool! :D

 

i do hope people don't think that the point of this thread is to show off artistic abilities and make people feel inadequate :\. i meant it to be all about sharing the cards with each other so we can see all the prettiness, but people are saying things about being to embarrassed to post their cards or prefacing them with so many comments about how they're not worthy that i'm beginning to feel a bit guilty :P

 

i sent off my two cards today, along with the letter to debs! i'll post the final photos tomorrow, but i think the lady at the post office thought i was insane. she chuckled at the george bush postcard, and was eyeing the logo on everything intently :lol:

 

 

true!!

 

I want to see all the postcards :):):)!!! Please, its a pretty thing to see the result of all this effort putted together

 

The important thing its show the place you're from, the particularities, the hart putted on the postcard. We are such a lot of people from such a lot of different places :), please don't worry and share them all.

 

I think the guys will be stunned

OMFG!!!!! :lol:

Ok ok, so you don't feel guilty ('cause I sure know all about that--"Trouble" is my theme song!:P) I'll be brave and be the first "non-artistic nor creative" one to post my not really

(but kinda) homemade cards.

 

So like I said, I'm not artistic or creative, so when I stopped procrastinating (another of my faults:\) I turned to the internet to find some already-made postcards. At first I looked for New Jersey ones, but they were all boring, and then I found this site...ZAZZLE

 

It's really cool, they have a bunch of stuff you could make with your own designs you can upload, or using a template. And you could buy whatever quantities you'd need! (And shipping was pretty fast, too.) So I found two that I liked, and uploaded the PFFAW project logo, and ordered 1 of each :D

So, as you can see, nothing compared to the postcards people have show so far--they are all AWESOME!:D--but so much better than I could do w/ just pen&paper. I haven't figured out what I'm going to write on the second one, that's why no pic of that one.

 

Oh and there's also a UK site, so if anyone is really stuck, you can "cheat" like me to create your postcard:P (just don't steal mine, ok?:inquisitive: hehehehe. No.Really.:veryangry2:)It took me forever to find this and figure out which to use!LOL

 

--Chelsea, I saw you offer to organize something for coldplayers going to Wembley, this might be a place to look into for t-shirts...:idea2:

 

noelia, those are awesome!! :D i love the message, too...i wish i could be consise. when i post my final cards, everyone's going to laugh at how much i wrote :disappointed:

 

and i'll definitely keep that site in mind for wembley shirts, if people want to do that and no one else is already on it :wink:

I haven't started on mine yet, but I'm thinking it will have something to do with Coldplay+ the Washington Monument on the front.

:D

ohhh you just gave me an idea

(easter island.. really far from here.. but chilean :P)

^ You could photoshop each of the guys standing up over where the statues are now. :P

 

Ooh that was very badly worded. Oh well.

those belong to Chile???? :shocked2:

 

 

 

 

***feels stupid for asking***

I'll try to photshop that next week :D

 

and yeah pris.. easter island is a little island in the middle of nowhere.. people there speaks spanish and their language which is rapanui I think... and it's chilean because some chilean people discovered it.. but they're really different from the people from the continent!

Ahhh that is too awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

You gotta use that!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :dance:

:dance: in one week, I'll be on vacation.. then I'll create my postcards :D

ugh.... i miss school.......... the winter vacations, the summer vacations......

 

actually, i think what i miss is the school vacations!!!!!!! :lol:

 

[/offtopic]

Aw thanks guys for the nice comments :nice:

 

And Chelsea, don't worry about writing too much..I was only concise because I typed that one up so it'd be printed neatly from the website...why do you think the other is blank? :wink: (look at my posts, I can never make them short :lol:) I'm gonna have a few rough drafts, and jeez if you only knew my handwriting LOL

Knowing Chris' handwriting i highly doubt they'll have a problem reading yours........ :lol:

You're right!:lol:

But I still don't know what I'm gonna write...I'm actually not too crazy about what I wrote in the 1st one, seems not "warm" enough. Thank God I still have time to think about it...will try not to procrastinate too long, though!;)

i still havent' figured our what i'm gonna write......... gotta get it done tomorrow, 'cause I wanna send them off on monday ;)

My God, you guys are so creative! So many nice postcards, wow!

I should ask them to take me to wembley in my postcard :wacky:

  • Author

ooh yes! :sneaky:

 

i said "see you at wembley," but that's hardly asking for anything :lol:. i think i might have mentioned somewhere that i was moving to england, too. perhaps they'll want to hire me :P

everyones postcards are beeeyoootiful !!!

 

and i really want to thank everyone who organized/thought up/helped with this- I sent mine off today and was really happy to do it. coldplay has done alot for me and it was nicer than I can say to be able, in whatever small way, to say thanks and, uh, i love them. but seriously, thank you all for doing this :kiss:

great to know that you sent your postcards :D

wow, these are all soo freaking creative!! i just made mine look like a postcard... and it's really shitty.

i'll post the pictures of my finalized ones later today, now that i'm still home :D

 

unfortunately, i forgot to take a photo of the thank-you note to debs so everyone could read it :disappointed:. but it was handwritten on logo-letterhead paper, just to be extra-fancy :P

I just have to stop by and say that I'm very proud of myself because I actually bought my postcards this afternoon :wacky: Goodbye, procrastination! Although I still haven't started my homework... :P

 

Now I can start working on them, and if they're not too painfully awful, I'll post them here when I'm finished!

 

PS- Everyone's postcards look amazing!
