This is probably the last one in the October exchange series. I debated about using 3 stamps from the series that included the frog, but then I thought the cowboys looked better. It was really hard to part with the cowboys. I love them dearly. But, I have made a note-to-self that Eric appreciates stamps. So, I will now feel better about sending the ones that have a deep hankering to stay at the 420.
This one might have run earlier, with just the frog stamp. And I might have said that I was not going to re-photograph all the envelopes after I added enough postage to the 39-cent stamps. And then, I forgot to stop at the PO so the envelopes ended up back at the 420 and I went ahead and photographed all but one - because it hid. And now I have to decide how compulsive I am. Can I let it go? It had a cute twist. The number of deadlines hanging over me are scary.
Here are the rest of them.

The gem stamps were better on the sparkle envelope than the other stamps. |

That stamp with Sidney would have been fun with a thought bubble. |
|
The 13-cent, tiny stamps fit between the first and last names, but, I'm not happy with how distracting they are. |
|
Ho-hum but not wretched. |
|
The Indian head penny looks great with the buffalo and the color of the envelope. |
|
Three more where the add-on stamp ended up in the bottom right corner. |
|
The rest of them except for Troy's. His Y in Troy looked like a martini glass and I put the ZIP code stamp, tipped, in the martini glass. Cute, but distracting. |
Oh I love this set and 'specially the cowboys..!
