Large Numbers & Marker Lettering – Monthly Mail Art with Kristina Werner, November 2018
Happy Saturday, all! Kristina Werner here with another Monthly Mail Art. :)
For this month’s envelope, I wanted to try out stamping the large numbers in Concord & 9th’s Notable Numbers stamp set. I thought they would be perfect for the number in an address!
I stamped the numbers in Acorn Versafine Clair ink and lettered the rest of the address using a light brown Tombow marker.
NOTE: Address used with permission. Thanks, Rose Marie!
I used a mixture of current postage (the Lincoln stamp is a USPS Forever stamp), and unused vintage postage stamps from my stash. With the unusual style of address, I’m anticipating the need for additional postage, so the vintage stamps will cover that.
Thanks for stopping by! :)

What a cool envelope! The hand lettering and stamped numbers make a fun combination. :)
What an awesome envelope! I don’t know how you think of all of these ways but keep them coming Kristina. Simply amazing!
This is gorgeous.. but does the mail office have to hand sort this kind of envelope? I would think their machine doesn’t read it? And then does it cost extra to ship? Just curious.
