Mail-y Christmas

Nothing beats snail mail. The crisp envelope, the stamps, the red and blue stripes, the post office markings.... E-mails are fast, reliable, and certainly make us feel young and updated with the world :P, but sorry, e-mail, as much as I rely my whole correspondence life on you, I still have my biggest crush on anything snail mail.

So, I have been thinking, every Christmas day I share gifts to my family, but most of them can be reached at 10 minutes drive or so. That makes me reluctantly avoiding postal service for this matter. But how if I want the gifts as if they're freshly stamped out of the post office? Luckily, my friend Adobe is always here to help. Meet my post office-y mail tags (and sticker if you want them to be).

Do share your pictures if you're using it :). Happy gift wrappings.

Awe, Ning! This is so cool! And I agree, nothing beats snail mail. I still keep some pen pals I made 15 years ago. I love writting letters and making my own stationery.

Hope you're having a nice day! :) And thank you for sharing this!

Oh no! I just spent money on some crappy adhesive gift tags when I could have been using your adorable ones.

I'm with you on snail mail.
