This is what happens when anal-retentive people like me can't find "the perfect stamp" for their wedding invitations:
It's math time, kids!
Why would I use 452,019,816* stamps on each envelope, you might ask? Well... I insisted on making things difficult for myself, and had to include 5,632* pieces in my invitation suite. All on heavy card stock. These lovely love stamps weren't enough postage, but I still wanted to include them. I mean, they're cute, right? Love. The king and queen of hearts. Aw!
And look, she's giving him flowers. That's precious.
The only $0.17 stamp available that would cover the difference is this:
Um, hi. Bighorn sheep? Oy. You're cute and everything, but not really appropriate for wedding invitations. You also don't fit into the color scheme. Sorry. Come back later. Maybe we can use you for the bachelor party invitations!

Man that is totally adorable. I love it when people think of the little things. I am a sucker for symbolism like that... go forth and make some tarts; the King and Queen of Hearts- precious! xxx
I love your choice of stamps: I would have done the same. Your invites will go out in fabulous style!
I agree, I would've totally done the same. I am so retentive like that! Annnd holy hannah, Ms. Mer, that is some fine lettering you've done on those invitations! What a treat those will be to receive in the mail!
