I need to do some strawberries. I should make a note to find a yellow envelope because I suspect it is the pink and red on yellow that is a full 50% of why this works so well. I wonder if this just popped out of Grace's head or if there was an inspiration. I wonder if there are other color combinations that would work. The reds and pinks in the stamps - as well as the greens are another reason everything works.
After months (or years) of blocking out addresses using a function where you could insert a rectangle and choose a color - I discovered that you could save a ton of time by choosing a rectangle of color right off the envelope - and then repeating it. I need to do some research and see if I could also tilt the rectangle.
Most addresses are level - so my new technique of grabbing the color to make the rectangle was a wildly exciting discovery. It ranks right up there with the [Reminder] app on my phone. It was just sitting there next to the little notepad where I have a gazillion notes - that are a black hole of lost information.
Shout out to the BigHelpfulBrother who pointed it out. I'm writing this the day after he pointed it out and this is a prompt to see if I remembered to use it - because this will pop up a month after I have written it.
