2008 Stamps!

I was searching through the USPS Web site shopping for stamps for my upcoming save-the-date mailing and I discovered some new issues for 2008. I'm so excited! As part of being a true nerd, I collected stamps when I was younger... I think it spawned my love of paper and all things related to letters and cards. I know a few brides were a bit disappointed with last year's offering, but this year, the selection is pretty vast (well, as far as stamps go!)

I found the perfect ones for our mailing. Check it out:

Though it's technically to commemorate the Lunar New Year, the colors (and theme... you'll see why later!) are a perfect complement to our save-the-dates. We'll post once we've mailed them out.

Some other options that are just as fun:

I love LOVE love these. I'm imagining a very sparse, modern, and clean invitation with an image of Charles and Ray Eames designs peaking out from the corner.

Love: All Heart © 2007 USPS. All Rights Reserved.

This one is also perfect for invitations or any kind of wedding-related stationery. It's the 2008 design for the Love series.

This one is just fun. So bold and graphic.

Wedding Hearts © 2007 USPS. All Rights Reserved.

And of course, the classic. Can't go wrong with this one. Simple and understated.

You can purchase some of these online at USPS stamp shop or head to your local post office to see what's currently available.
