The Christmas Collection 2013 Part 1

Here comes the time of the year again when we start exchanging Christmas greetings and Christmas cards. So here's a slightly longer post of the first Christmas cards I've received this year :). First on the list, a lovely winter night scene from Poland! Some parts of this card are lined with gold glitter, a real beauty. Thanks Wanda!

Wrocław Cathedral, Wrocław, Poland

This is the Wrocław Cathedral, a landmark in the city of Wrocław, Poland. The cathedral has been through many wars, and has thus been damaged and repaired as many times. The details of it standing the test of time can be found here. Today, the church houses the largest pipe organ in Poland, which used to be the biggest in Poland at one period of time.

The stamp on the left is a Christmas stamp issued on 30th November 2012. It is one of a set of 2 Christmas stamps. I love Christmas themed stamps!
