Tuesday Topics: Stamp Hunt Unsuccessful

Tuesday Topics are BACK!!!  My apologies for not posting earlier… it really is hard to top that Jelly Bean post!!!  ;)

So today I bring you into the world of stamps!!  I don’t remember what we did for postage on our wedding invitations but in looking at today’s options, I’m a little underwhelmed.  Any of you brides feel the same?

The “wedding” stamps available on www.usps.com are a little…. ummm…. cheesy.  Who designs their stamps!?!  They should purchase a wedding image from a wedding photographer and use something a little more…. umm…. hip? awesome? current?!!!!  These stamps look like they’re from the 1980′s!  (Granted, the quality of the photos are spectacular.)

 

 

So I got all excited when I saw the news that a new wedding stamp had just been released this week!!!… but soon realized it is actually a repeat of a stamp introduced in 2009.  ::sigh::

 

 

After doing a little digging on the www.usps.com site, I did find some custom postage that isn’t too bad and you might possibly find some that match what you’re sending out… here are just a few….

 

 

So what do all of you hip brides do these days!?!  I know for our 1st married Christmas I actually created stamps using one of our own photos at www.photo.stamps.com.  While these were super fly, they were a little pricey too.  But totally worth it.  ;)

I’m I the only person out there that wishes there were more beautiful stamps to go on those lovely invitations??
