Tucker is... zazzled

  1. is the top item the enclosure that was in the the envelope?
    if so, does this mean you bought a sheet of zazzle stamps and then used the entire sheet on the envelope and enclosure?

    1. After seeing your comment I realized that I didn't explain anything in this post. I created custom postage at zazzle featuring Tucker's face for the Tucker project. Jon F, the Tucker Fan Club President, had asked for support for this endeavor, and I had so much fun with it and was so impressed with his efforts to keep it rolling, that I donated the postage to him.

      If you look carefully at the envelope below the postage, there is only a single barcode and postage amount - that face is the stamp. The rest is just printed onto the envelope using the computer and desktop printer. I sent Jon the remaining 19 stamps, although in retrospect I wish I had kept a few more for my own purposes.

      Creating stamps at zazzle is pretty expensive - so I only do it on rare occasions. Plus there are so many nice stamps to choose from the USPS selection, that it's hard to justify.
