June Exchange - Blue Slow Starts

I pulled out leftover envelopes and chose stamps from the hoard that should have looked just fine.
The first two did not look promising even though  I was using a favorite pen. So I switched to the big fat PITT white markers and none of those look very promising. If I resolve any of them, I will post the revised versions. As I have said before - sometimes I need to do about 10 envelopes to warm up.

The idea of gridding off the whole envelope is pretty stuck in my head. Maybe something else will show up to replace it.
