[Postcards] - Manticore

[kasche]

And this is the last one already - I really ended up making so awfully few of them. Gah.
   
   

For nassima.

So, when last year I asked people what they would have liked on their cards, she asked for a magical creature, and I immediately thought of a manticore.

I do love that animal. Love which is mostly founded on the fact that, as Newt Scamander says, " [...] the manticore is reputed to croon softly as it devours its prey."        I don't know, it just tickles my funny bone. Just like an old woman would hum when she’s knitting.

I am kind of weird, ain't I...

And while we’re here, might I also add that, had that pic been in color, the shreds of clothes and the ribbon would have been pink? If you know what I mean.
