I love this time of year when I get to step back from the Facebook messages, emails and tweets and get down to sending some old-fashioned, handwritten Christmas cards!  You may think that the art of letter writing on designer stationery is a forgotten form of communication, but companies like Invitation Consultants are helping inspire us all to pick up the pen and put down the keyboard.

They have a wide variety of stunning cards, announcements and custom stamp designs, and recently I had the opportunity to create my very own custom self-inking stamp.  Keep reading to learn more!

Since my husband and I send out a lot of mail for our small business, I wanted to try one of the custom self-inking return address stamps from Invitation Consultants.  I was blown away by the large array of gorgeous designs, and choosing just one was definitely difficult.  In the end, I selected the Simple Stamp design for it would look great with our business envelopes and the round design even resembled a letter's post mark, for a fun mail-inspired feel.

I loved how I was able to select the ink color (black, red, blue or green) I wanted as well as the wording used.  The custom stamp was delivered to my door rather quickly and the stamp itself came in a durable plastic casing which fit easily into the palm of my hand.  What I really loved about this custom self-inking stamp is the overall quality of the actual stamping surface.

I have no doubt that once the ink is all used up, I can continue to use this custom stamp with a typical stamp pad for years to come.  Finally breaking free from the endless sheets of return address labels and finding a greener, more eco-friendly alternative?  PRICELESS!  :big grin:

But don't think for a minute that Invitation Consultants only offer custom stamps.  They have anything and everything you need to commemorate and celebrate every season and special occasion.  Just look at the myriad of gorgeous holiday cards and party invitations they carry!

If you are still searching for the perfect gift, holiday card or party invitation, then by all means shop the large selection of stationery products from Invitation Consultants.  I couldn't be happier with the custom self-inking stamp I received to review for our business and am already eyeing several more of these custom stamps for myself!
