Envelope 398 to Theo

I was attracted to the conveyor belt graphic when choosing this magazine page for an envelope. I like how the rocket ship kinda points to the earth on the stamp.

Update

Eva suggested a line between the rocket and the earth. I really wish I could print exactly where I wanted onto an envelope, but my printer-handling skills are not fine enough!

Here's what i did on the computer....

    You can draw a line between the rocket and the Earth...

      You know, I have never thought to alter one of the numbered envelopes. Maybe in the future!

      I used the computer to draw a line and updated the post :)

    A really cool envelope. I was wondering : do you use any specific template to create your envelopes ?

      Yes, the numbered envelopes all have the same format from a home-made template.

    Can you still get these stamps? (I got a large atlas at a thrift store for 10 cents!)

      Unfortunately not, the post office is sold out. There is a very nice new global forever stamp coming out Feb 22 showing the moon.
