Something Old -- Vintage Postage


{Photos Courtesy Elizabeth Anne Designs}



I recently addressed some oversized envelopes in Elegance Script for a bride {Incidentally, Ami of Elizabeth Anne Designs} with a very classic taste - as in old classics! After we sent the envelopes back for mailing, they spiced things up with these clever vintage stamps. The stamps {and thus envelopes as well} were different for every recipient!



Clients can order these vintage stamps on Ebay in all different shapes and sizes (and denominations - so make sure they add up to the correct postage on every envelope!). Revisit childhood cartoons, revered sports icons, symbolic moments in history and other classic images. Prices vary based on seller.

It's the perfect way to mix something old with something new!

I hate to ask a dumb question -but that calligraphy just looks sooo good! Is it real calligraphy or is it a font you created. Either way, its amazing! Id love for you to do calligraphy on our envelopes :)
