March 26, 2010 Custom Address Stamps
After we wrapped up the Lucky in Love Challenge, we decided to send out a gift to each of the entrants to thank them for participating in our contest. When sending a gift to someone you don't know, it ends up being a little bit nerve-wracking trying to come up with an idea that will be universally enjoyed.
Our choice for each of couples was to make them a custom address stamp with their return address. Not only can it be used for general correspondence, thank you notes, it's also a great time-saver for couples on a budget - and can be used for their reply envelopes and as the return address on their wedding invitations!
On of the brides, Shauna sent send us over an example of how her and her fiance used their stamps, which arrived just in time as they were about to mail their Save the Dates...
Loved that way these envelopes turned out. Isn't the AIR MAIL stamp and heart with key graphic on the back flap the sweetest?!?

FONT INFORMATION: The font used in the address stamps is actually a mixture of Mrs. Eaves Petite Caps and Mrs. Eaves Italic. You can purchase both directly from Myfonts.
The stamp shown is 2.5" x 1.5" - The point size on the font ranges from 11 - 13pt. depending on the area. I mixed up the design to add some typographic flair

I actually just got a custom address stamp for my boss/ good friend as her bridal shower present, though I am giving it to her early to spare her hands from writing the return address 100s of times. Etsy is a great place to find them too, you can even get self inking ones (oh joy). Good post!
The stamp is so wonderful! I now find myself looking for excuses to send out letters.... Thanks again!
Can you tell me the Font and font size you used? This is a great idea-Thanks for the post!
This is lovely! Thanks for sharing.
