When we were still back in Maryland, I gocco printed the front side of our "we've moved!" postcards. You can see a video tutorial for that process here.

Backside

Now that we are actually moved and have an address, I finished up the backside of the postcards. Originally, I planned on typing and printing them, but in a rush to just do it, I decided to use a mix of handwriting and stamps to get the point across. I used our new address stamp + a star and (old) pencil stamp from Paper Source.

I think I should make stamped cards more often – I loved how each one was a bit different.

    stamping does add a personal touch. I am too impatient to sit and do that to so many though.

    Super cute cards. I just rec’d my summer 2010 book in the mail – excited to create my first mini-book and bust out of decade-old scrapbooking “rules”. We’ve had an extended rainy season this year – so opening that up was like getting sunshine in the mail. Thank you, Elise!
