ode to the envelope

all this envelope love is making me giddy. envelopes are all about treasure and mystery and admirers and good wishes and love languages and hellos from afar and hugs and kisses in the form of x's and o's. i inherited this obsession from my father.

speaking of envelopes, check out this pretty postage.
of course, if your mom likes marge...

    I love envelopes, but they never look as cute with the stamp I happen to have in my drawer, and the writing at the end of my hand.

    I REALLY love making envelopes out of magazine pages. You can make them REALLY cool that way. Though, be careful about both sides. I sent a letter in one to a friend on a mission, and the inside page was an extremely scantily clad woman... for the front of an article about sex! eeek! I didn't even notice! hahaha!
