i do not like to stack the last two letters when i stack-to-fit. it would have been perfect if i had stacked the g-e and then had a large R. but, i did not want to toss it...so, i just let it go.
the space the F left was a problem and i filled it with a detail from each stamp - but that didn't work -so- i just added a bunch more stuff none of which was a magic fix.
i do think that when i take it to the PO for a hand cancel - the red circles will help.i shall ask them to clonk it on the right, then the left and then back on the right sides of the stamps. finnbadger will probably post it on his blog - so we will see how it looks after being clonked.
new label - hot mess...it might help me delete things....although some people are encouraged to see that they are not alone in creating hot messes.
And I just thought it was hot! It will be on my blog soon.
ReplyDeleteglad you liked it. it is a little less unpleasant on the screen - and the scan is horrible. maybe your scan will be better.
DeleteI like it....good balance of bold and fine lines. My hope with envelope art is to make people feel special when they get a piece of hand made art in the mail and I'm sure as this passed through it's journey of post offices there were many who were thinking, "I wish this was addressed to me!"
ReplyDeletethanks, christy, i like that thought. and then another *thanks* with a touch of frustration - because you just gave me a really good idea - and i was hoping to buckle down and get some work done today - instead of getting lost in the envelopes....
