Signed, sealed, delivered

I'm NOT going to write about the postal rate hike that's taking place in January. I'm NOT going to remind you to make sure you affix the correct postage on your RSVP envelopes if your deadline is after the new rates go into effect on January 27. I'm NOT even going to rant about the fact that I have to purchase 1-cent stamps again and they, for whatever reason, annoy the heck out of me.

Instead, I'm going to show you some pretty Forever stamps that I found while perusing the USPS web site...because looking at a pretty design makes me forget that there's a pretty price tag attached it.

These Forever Wedding Roses have been a popular design for wedding invitations:

Forever - Wedding Roses
Haven't seen this one in person, but love the romantic swirls:
Forever - Love
Really excited about this new design:
Forever - Sealed with Love
Love, love, love, this Bonsai series:
Forever - Bonsai
Oh, and here's the Birds of Prey series. Because sometimes you just want your snail mail to be a little more menacing:
85 cent - Birds of Prey

Cupcakes...still trending

It's a good thing for me that people are still crazy about cupcakes! Every time I show samples of Emi Ink's custom-printed cupcake sleeves at wedding expos, people are drawn in like moths to a flame. I'm not sure if it's the "cute factor" that catches their eye, or the promise of a sweet treat (my display cupcakes are made of DECO clay, much to the disappointment of the under 10 crowd that finds their way to my booth). But whatever it is, custom sleeves add a perfect touch - especially if you're doing a cupcake display at your wedding or other special event.

These sleeves were designed for clients of A Cake Life:
