Here is another way to alternate colors to establish some kind of design on the envelope. It helps to have both large tips and fine tips. Having 3 would be even better. As mentioned, I put my Dec exchange envelopes inside my Nov envelopes - to give the USPS a break. Since the Dec envelopes were not going through the mail, I used old Christmas Seals as faux-stamps. My mom saved all of her Christmas Seals and I have come close to throwing them out. At the very least, I need to sort through them and ditch the designs that I do not care for. I love this one from 1954. I remember how much I loved putting the Christmas seals on the holiday cards that my mom sent out when I was little.
Oh, wow. I was curious what the 2021 Christmas Seals looked like - and found the website. They have a few really cool images from the past. I am resisting the temptation to find a website that shows all of them.
