To 7 people in Dec

This is turning into *postal week*
The USPS just sent me a link to a booklet - for kids - but there's a ton of interesting information for anyone interested in postal history.




This is a style that I appropriated from Janet. As mentioned yesterday - I would have needed 3 of the stamps (or 4) if I wanted to use them - so these were inner envelopes. I'm quite pleased with how they turned out. I'll be even more pleased if I find the original one from Janet that provided the inspiration. 

I deeply regret that I did not do this version for Janet. Instead - I had a used Mouse Brain Stamp. She had sent me an envelope with a Mouse Brain Stamp - so I thought it would be fun to use the same one on something going to Janet - sadly - it is a bit blah. It might have been better if the letters were filled in with a lot more dark - maybe even solid black - but that was way too risky.


I guess I need to include names in the blurb - so that these will pop up if I am ever looking for a record of what I sent to Janet, Irene, Jessica, Lynne, Mary and Cathy -- and Rachael, whose address was done in  small red block letters.
