Does anyone use Stickers?

OhioAngel — Sun, 16 Aug 2020 19:52:17 GMT

For years I have used stickers on my cards on the outside and even on the inside. I have for years and my Mom used to also. Mostly on Holiday cards but also on letters, cards and notes. Some people still use these and I would get them at Hallmark or Walmart. I saw none at Hallmark two years ago, the rack of stickers was gone. Walmart has some stickers but not many, mostly for kids use. Does anyone still use them? I looked on Amazon and on Colorful Images and they have many nice ones available. I am ordering now lol. Envelope seals are very nice too.

I do. I also put decorative cut-out things. Different ones for each occasion.

Yes, I use them if I have them available especially around the holidays (Christmas, Valentine’s day, Easter etc)... they look so festive & happy 🥰

My sister and I have been using stickers on cards and envelopes since we were in our teens, quite a number of years ago!!!!!! Your post hit home and I can appreciate and relate to it.

I buy stickers for Halloween, Christmas, Easter and other holiday cards especially for the children in my family. I also receive stickers from some charities I donate to. On regular mail such as bills I usually put a sticker on the front just to make sure the envelope is sealed.

I am able to buy many of my stickers for the kids at Hallmark stores, Target. They have a nice selection.

Yes I love stickers to put on cards and even on letters to dress them up. I also use stamps and ink pads to design paper that I write on.

Yes, I love to, for special occasion cards, or other correspondence. Sometimes I just use envelope seals. Some of those can add a bit of elegance. Stickers aren't just for kids .

I also use rub-ons. I'm a big fan of Anna Griffin.

I never used to, except for the occasional one on the back of an envelope to help hold it closed.

But this year I got a pack by Katie Daisy to go along with my Katie Daisy planner.

I remember when rubber stamping was such a big thing. I think it was in the 90's. You could find the rubber stamp stores and kioskes in every mall.

It was so much fun to decorate with the stamps. When they seemed to go out of favor I donated all of my rubber stamps. I really wish I had kept them.

It's nice to see that someone still uses them. You must be a very creative person. I wasn't but at least I had fun playing with them.

I've never outgrown my love for stickers. I use them on corespondence mostly and to dress up packages.

Nope, never. But I sometimes draw on labels, cards or letters, or even emails now that iPads exist in the world. My drawings are not very good at all, but I enjoy doing it at times.

@OhioAngel I have been collecting stickers since childhood.

Love stickers. Don't send out many cards like I used to but I like

to add a flower, heart, smiley, some sort of sticker inside and out

side. So much fun.

I have different types and here is a picture of some of my better,

fancier ones.

Yes, I use lots of stickers on the cards I mail. I am also known to put colorful confetti inside birthday cards as another little surprise!

We use stickers on our mail out, back of the envelope onto where it seals. We have a lot, all sorts that we usually get with address labels we both get most times attached to some group looking for a contribution.

I don't use stickers on envelopes. Instead, I order return address labels from Colorful Images that have a holiday theme.

When I wrap clothing items, I will use an occasion appropriate sticker to hold the tissue paper securely in the box. I think that little touch makes the gift seem a little more special. Then I go all out on the wrapping with pretty paper, ribbon and do-dads. I love wrapping gifts and making the package look special. I stock up on the wrapping stuff during after Christmas sales. Then I am ready for next Christmas and saved some money, too. 😀

I have a few stickers and address lables from charities that I use. I have also taken to tapeing my bill envelopes closed. No licking. I also get the fancy stamps at the post office. That little bit of cheer may help to lift somebodies day somewhere.

I don't really use them for myself, but buy them for kids all the time. I do think the scrapbook section in Michael's and Hobby Lobby have lovely stickers, though. Some are pretty expensive!
