Hope you have fun looking at my creations and other things I love in life.... calligraphy is my passion, but so is my family... consisting of "the love of my life", my hubby, and my three miniature long haired dachshunds. You'll see lots of them here. Loved this quote: There’s something sacred about reading a blog post on someone else’s site. It’s like visiting a friend’s house for a quick meal ’round the breakfast table. It’s personal—you’re in their space, and the environment is uniquely suited for idea exchange and uninterrupted conversation. In many ways, we should be treating our blogs like our breakfast tables. Be welcoming & gracious when you host, and kind & respectful when visiting.” – Trent Walton

Andrea's Birthday Envelope

(Just a note on this one... I took it to the post office yesterday to get it HAND CANCELLED so it wouldn't look so ugly when it arrived with all the marks all over the envelope and to my surprise... I got it back in MY MAILBOX Today!!! Don't know why, but I took it to the postal clerk again today and had her resend it. She said they didn't see a the squiggly lines at the top, but I hand cancel all the time... we'll see if it gets returned again! My return address was printed on an address label on the back ..so maybe that was why!? Who knows?)
I am not sure about putting peoples' addresses up here, but i feel that the whole OVERALL look changes when you block out the address... so.. I am in a dilemma here! Advice!?

  1. Trish, I have always brought our taxes to the PO to get hand cancelled and they won't even do that any more. They have apparently been told they can't do it because it needs to be "Computer Generated". USPS better not throw away their stamps yet -- there will always be BULKY mail..... and mail with Trish Trash! ♥ the envelopes you create. ~Barb XO
