The Postal Store

August 29th, 2007 @ 3:28 pm by Mrs. Bird of Paradise

From wedding invitations to bridal shower invitations to thank you cards, I love using stamps to personalize envelopes and pull together a theme. Be sure to check out USPS. They have lots of fun new stamps! :)

aww, if i knew about that pollination one, i’d have purchased those! i had to put 4 stamps for my box invitations anyway and those would’ve made a perfect set!

OOOHHH you just got me so excited about the Louis Comfort Tiffany stamps! How perfect for the Tiffany obsessed bride (me!) than the stamp of son of the founder of Tiffany & Co! Ok, so Louis had his own successes in life…I just prefer his father’s :-)

Oh, these are so great! They had the wierdest stamps when I sent out our invites…I ended up with Moths and Hershey Kisses. LAME. I coined the term, “Like a moth to a Hershey Kiss…”

It was either moths or Jonas Salk. Nothin’ says lovin’ like Jonas Salk. I wanted to write “Love is contagious” on the invites with those.

Some of them even ended up with this horrible combination of agricultural products, US Flags, and chairs…ugh. I hope no one really pays attention to the stamps.

Ooh! Love the celebrate and the blooms! They’ve been a bit slow to come out with anything interesting since it went up to 41 cents (talk about insult to injury), so glad to see that the selection is expanding….

Have you seen any cute 26 stamps for RSVP postcards? I’ve only seen the USPS cougar stamps that look slightly ominous to me. Anyone? And I don’t want to purchase 5 vintage stamps for each card just to make it unique….but I don’t want to have a cougar on my pink/cream RSVPs either!

I just posted about using the Marvel comic stamps for my Save-the-Dates. They so cool!

I bought a ton of the Star Wars stamps when they first came out to be used on all of our wedding needs. So far, they’ve gone out on all the save-the-dates, though I’m slightly disappointed that I didn’t get any comments on them hehe.

Just a word of caution on the SW stamps - the C-3PO’s may be too tall for use in invitations, etc. Also, the emperor and Darth Maul are just too ugly lol. We’re using those 3 for our “everyday” mail uses. If we run out, I’ll likely get the Disney ones or the Yoda ones when they come out.
