my va-ca mail - smash

i am seriously annoyed with the person who put that grease pencil mark on the envelope. the address is very clearly written.
BTW, smash....
i see the alphabet in the layers of the squarish rectangle...but wonder if there are words? or a pattern to the letters?
just curious.


i love this envelope and the way the cancel is right over the wand.
so pretty.
maybe i can figure out a way to remove the grease pencil.
any suggestions?

  1. You and Smash certainly know how to make these stamps look good as part of a beautiful envelope. The lettering looks great. I bet you could write HP spells coming out of the wand and that would look fantastic, too.

    Here's one link that i found for trying to remove that stain.

    Doesn't look easy,though.

  2. how to clean stuff might be my new favorite website. i read the suggestions, which reminded me that Bestine is the *Best* solvent for removing stuff from paper and i have some, so i will try that.
    and - i just uploaded my next video to vimeo - you may find it through the tab at the top of my blog that says [videos]

  3. The post office was not satisfied with their bar code? Give me a break
    This envelope has a January post mark and that is so beyond my memory base, I don't know what I was thinking. Maybe it says something and maybe it doesn't

  4. It clearly says "you have a nice getaway". I hope you did. Just stand back and read it!
