I HATE the Love Stamp.

I was thinking of using the combination of the Cary Grant 37 cent stamp along with the George Washington stamp....

Please be honest and tell me what you think!

Thanks ladies!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I think two stamps would look tacky because of the fact like it would look like you didn't know how many stamps to put on.

But is it me? I don't look at stamps or caligraphy or anything like that lol

I don't think many people will look at the stamp or care for that matter! A lot of these details are just fluff- they are not important to anyone except us! Do you mean using two stamps together? There are other 57 cent stamps other than the Love ones. I don't think it will be tacky, but just cumbersome-looking and more work for you to use two stamps together.

Honestly, I don't think 2 stamps would look right. But you don't have to use the Love stamp. See what else the PO has. I'm sure they have something you'd like.

I dont think it is the two stamps that is the problem - more so the fact that they are two different people - jmo though...

2 stamps

Putting an additional stamp would be more work for you.

In the end it does not matter. The envelope will go in the trash and the response card gets sent to you.

I think you have bigger things to worry about!!! Go for it if you dont like the LOVE stamp.

I don't really like that idea. The new love stamps actually look nice on the envelopes..I say just use those and make your life easier!

Re: Please tell if this is tacky & BE HONEST!!!!

I didn't like the stamp either, but I think 2 stamps (especially ones that don't match) might draw negative attention to something that may otherwise have gone unnoticed.

sorry, JMO

I had no choice but to use two stamps. My weight was .83

I used the Love stamp and the .23 cent stamp.

I received so many compliments on my invitation itself, that I am sure people overlooked the two stamps.

The very last thing I'm looking at when I get any kinda mail is the stamp(s).

I don't think it makes a difference if you use two.

The new Eagle Stamp is really nice though, and very classy too.

im sure no one is really going to be looking at the stamp seriously, everyone will be more concerned with what is inside!!!

Re: Please tell if this is tacky & BE HONEST!!!!

Don't cry!!! PLEASE!

It really DOESN'T matter!! That's why I said I don't like the 2 stamp thing....and would use the ugly love one. Just so you won't have to deal with 2 of them!

Please don't sweat this!! Everyone immediately turns it over and rips it open anyway!
