FEB to Janet, Jessica, Grace, Susan, and Maggie

The A in Janet is too big.

All the letters should have been crammed into the corner, bleeding off the top an left - and a bit larger.

Once again, the A in grace is too big and the mands letters need to have more variation.

I apologize for all of these being so redundant. We've slogged through the nib debacle and by the end of 130 envelopes, I was getting to that point where the letters were flowing nicely. I keep talking about getting the nibs and ink out so here was my opportunity to kill 3 birds with one stone. Use nibs and ink on exchange envelopes. Use up orphan stamps. Use up random weird envelopes. These weird green ones were square, so I had to re size them. But they are gone gone gone. YAY.

Yesterday there were 3 where I simply wrote the names as I had written them on the teal envelopes. After 3 - I was itching to do something different so I started bouncing around. Once I used up the elephant stamps I switched to Tomie dePaola stamps - and those envelopes needed some colored pencil to disguise the fact that the stamp clashed with the envelope.

I might as well run these - they are straight -and I don't remember what order I wrote them in - probably earlier - but then there was the whole stamp thing - and colored pencil which came later.

Susan's and Maggie's are OK - could have used something else.

I'm wishing I had thought to do some leafy tree shapes with a white pencil - 

that might have been very nice. 

Actually, I did try white colored pencil and it was too wimpy - which is why these are so plain.
