not a new concept but still a great one! there's something about vintage stamps that just makes envelopes so much more special!!

i've seen one with a drawing of a magnolia that i'm currently looking for to use on our invites.

  5. I went to look at vintage stamps a few months ago when we were sending out our invites, and they are pretty pricey. For the stamps we wanted, we were looking at $2.75 each invite in postage. They had a huge collection of stamps to choose from, and sell at book value. Here is the place we went:
