Used Nesties for my sentiment and main image, sponged the edges of the label 2 and all over the circle. Popped up the tree and sentiment. the sentiment was popped up on the left and just two pcs of paper under the right to make it even. Used Waltzingmouse stitching border and touched it up with a glitter pen underneath the main image. Glitter pen also used for the tree leaves and to touch up the primas and home made dew drops.
i am going to throw this question/debacle out there on my blog and see what feedback I get!
One question--why has the price gone up so much to mail these hand stamped? I mailed out 4 cards today and each one was $1.22! They used to be 56 cents each. The postman asked if they were cards inside, of course. The fifth card was in bubble wrap envie and it was 88 cents til I told him there was a card inside and then he bumped it up to $1.31. All of them were being mailed within US. Any answers out there? Any body work in the USPS? Did I misunderstand his question? Could he have said gift card and that changed the whole concept of mailing a card that did or did not have a gift card inside? I will ask the next time that I mail a card that needs to be hand stamped. http://cardologyetc.blogspot.com/

I think they charge more for a package with a letter or correspondence included. Sometimes when you mail a package around the holidays, they will ask if there is a letter or card inside, just say no. I don't work at the post office though and so I am not totally sure.
