i have been working on some new hand carved stamps. they are mail-themed and were inspired by C, who is learning to write friendly letters and enjoying the anticipation of receiving a letter in return. this all came to be because my sister-in-law, who is a very good friend, recently moved to a different state with my niece. we both agreed to try to encourage our daughters, who are only four months apart, to write to each other. they are very close, so they will miss each other very much. i thought it would be nice for the girls to keep in touch and practice their writing by sending letters.
the stamps, of which there are six, are designed by me and would add charm to letters, envelopes, packages, etc. they can also be used to make fake mail so kids could play post office and mail carrier. the stamp set includes:
- 'to:'
- 'from:'
- postage mark
- stamp
- envelope
- snail (to be used with the envelope to say, 'snail mail'. cute, huh!?)
