I get mine online from a company called Nostalgic Impressions. They have little tutorials if you are new to using them. They also carry King's wax, which is beautiful.
How much extra for postage do they cost? When I sent my x-mas cards with the bookmarks inside it was an extra 20 cents and I was curious if a wax seal costs the same.

I'm totally up for this with anyone who might want to get mail aside from holiday related cards.

I don't believe it adds any extra postage to the mail. If you purchase the flexible wax, it should travel through the post without disintegrating and it is also USPS approved (or something of that nature).

Holy crap, you have no idea how much I love pyramid head. I'd go as him for halloween if it was canon to be a female and wear a shirt instead of going topless. I even thought of combining making traditional wire Mardi Gras masks, into a Mardi Gras Pyramid Head mask.
I'll try and send some Cajun doodads out with my Valentineseses.

And I must also add that the Archie/Breaking Bad mashup was also frightening.

These are both amazing. I can't stop laughing at how deceptively sweet Slenderman's facial expression is and the comic is blowing my mind. Very creative.

Thank you kafkasgoldfish and jimmydafish for the christmas cards. I especially love the octopus stamp with the christmas hat. :3:



And then the other day I came home to a package sitting on the table for me. My first reaction was "SASS IS HERE! :woop:" and from Lamb! But there was no trace of bees. I then realised that Lamb is just a super mailer. Seriously, you are awesome!
Two cephalopod grow things, a cat bobble head, tea, red rubbery flicky thing, christmas tree pocket light, A Christmas Story bandaid, and an awesome postcard that is actually printed on the back. (Did you order those from somewhere?) Lamb, you are fantastic, I don't know how you manage to send out so much mail and then also do something like this. :3:




edit: Just checked the mail. Thank you AuntBuck. Glitter everywhere! :sassargh:

My boyfriend is a huge Silent Hill/PH fan- he has three Silent HIll tattoos. And he just got laid off, so maybe that would cheer him up.

I'm actually the horrible teacher who lets their students draw slenderman. That's an Abdullah original (the same kid who drew stuff for Kafka's Goldfish). He loves that slender game almost as much as he loves Mindcraft. One day I will tell him I saw Slenderman born (God, how long ago was that thread??).

Also, I love to deface Archie's :) Glad you got my card!

I want to apologize for my lack of posting in this thread. I was so busy over the holidays and got an 8 week old puppy that I've barely been on the forums. Every time I received a Christmas card, I felt so bad! But I wanted to make a list of thank-yous to everyone I received cards from. You guys are awesome and it made Christmas really great.

nonpromqueen and your little girl!
Pezmaster, who obviously has the coolest student ever and her artistic husband, Killamajig.
Keetron, even though I think you meant that 2013 is going to be great, not 2012 ;)
Fluffy Bunnies if only my tree were made of diamonds.
cardboardRobot with the silveryiest card ever.
Team Lunch, whose card featured the fanciest reindeers I've ever seen.
Vixenella and Alkaphanel, may there always be joy in your life and love in your heart as well!
THermophonic Joy, kitty cards are the best and those stickers were put to good use. Thank you!
Jimmy da Fish, your pretty card makes me happy.
Kafka's Goldfish who introduced me to the Christmas Octopus
Ashendar, my boyfriend thought it was awesome to get a postcard from Estonia!
Marlow, the card is adorable, I love the bright colours :3:

Anyone I missed, I'm super sorry and feel free to give me poo poo!

And finally, a picture of all the cards on my spiffy christmas card thinger!

Other people who I'll be writing will be Team Lunch, 13Pandora13, Dushkani, cuntvalet, panorama_change and Niemat. I'll be mailing letters for the rest of you guys in random order in the next four of five days. That's seven people alltogether and I think that the maximum amount of people I'd be willing to write at the same time would be ten, basically because I just realized that I'm not excactly swimming in money.
