stamp it


I've said it before, but I am a big fan of a hand written letter. Birthday cards, thank you notes, hey-girls... I just like to stick a letter in the mail every now and then. Which is lucky, because when engaged/married/both, penmanship basically becomes a second job - whether you like it or not. There are certainly instances where a handgun isn't the appropriate note adornment, but whenever possible I love to break out these rubber stamps that I found in a freaky little basement store on 11th Street. I used to cut my own notecards out of card stock, but I was perpetually messing up my measurements, so now I just buy blank pre-cut cards. I love adding my own touch to stationery/cards, and a cool stamp is definitely the easiest and most reliable way to do that.

  6. I firmly believe in hand written letters, notes and cards. I love buying them and sending them. Stamping cards is such a great idea, and I can't believe I didn't think of that. It definitely makes it really personal!

  8. I love snail mails as well! :-) I actually prefer it more than the email. I find it much more personal and it's just exciting to wait for the postman and receive something so cute in an envelope other than the bills! haha! :-)
