Albert designs autumn postcards
Over the last 3 weeks Albert was secretly working on a big project: he wanted to make autumn postcards.
So Albert strenuously collected a lot of nice leaves along the way and dried them in his tourist guide.
Then he send me shopping for some coloured paper and some glue and he was set to go and began sorting the leaves. However, he couldn’t decide which leaf to begin with first.
Finally Albert picked the Ginkgo leaf for his first postcard. He covered its backside with some glue (and took great care not to glue his hands or any part of his body covered with fur (which is basically 99% of his body – with the exception of his eyes).)
The freshly glued leaf then had to be pressed onto the paper with the dinosaur’s body part of choice.
However, Albert soon discovered that he might run out of limbs with this technique and asked me for a couple of quarter dollars:
Soon after Albert ran out of quarter dollars as well and began to gather anything which wasn’t nailed down instead:
A few hours of drying later Albert was ready for a final check if the postcards would meet his strong requirements of dinosaur aesthetics and craftsmanship:
They did.
Finally, he was very happy with the result.
He’ll now be busy the next while with writing postcards and sending them around the world.
Nice guy, this dino!
Ich hab schon wieder auf eine Fortsetzung gewartet – Albert ist wirklich ein Genie – du auch, Peter

Ach, das ist doch gar nicht sooo spektakulär. Der Albert hat nur eine der Basteltechniken angewandt, die man so in seiner Kindheit von seiner Mutter beigebracht bekommt ;-)
