Sticky mail
Got some sticky mail! I'd sent some Ismoyo stickers that i still had, to Stickertraders a couple of weeks ago and almost forgot about it. But then this envelop arrived with a cute meowing cat drawn on it and i remembered!
I wasn't expecting to get so many stickers in return, but I'm loving them. After going through all of them and being all excited, this feeling of doubt came over me. What to do with these stickers? I think the original artist would like me to put them up in Amsterdam. Get them seen out there. But some i love so much i would like to keep them. Put them in my sticker book. Could i? Or is that being selfish? I'm not sure what others do. If i show the stickers on my blog and give credit, is that getting the art out there? Maybe i should just send an email to Stickertraders with my dilemma... i want to send them a thank you note anyway.

What a fun idea! I maybe have to make some stickers too and send in :) Can't you do as you please with the stickers? I tried to read their faq but it wouldn't scroll and show the whole list for me.
I can totally understand your dilemma :) The stickers look beautiful and fun. I just found this link for you: http://wallspankers.com
that's easy :)
make copies for yourself and put the originals out in the public space :)
thought of you the other day when i was browsing the net for vintage wallpapers (i want to decoupage a set of drawers/filing cabinet i have). there were so many pretty one on ebay (from italy ) :)
Emailed them today. Let's see what they say.
Zara's idea of making copies is clever. I might do that with the ones i really really want to keep.
And thanks for the wallspankers link, it's great! Added to my favorites right away!
Zara, i was just thinking about doing another decoupage project! How funny you were thinking of me during your vintage wallpaper shopping spree! I want some too!! :)
Hi. This is Christopher from stickertraders.com, I want to thank you for posting this blog on my little project I have going. To answer your question about what to do with the stickers: Just do what you want with them. If you want to put them in your book thats fine. I have a huge collection in my book. Thanks.
I'd love to see some more of your scrapbooking one day in your blog.
I collected all these cute/interesting paper samples/brochures/cards and i didn't know what to do with them. so i have something like your scrapbook going, except it's also my journal.
it's really nice to be able to have something to use all those beautiful thing is, instead of just having them in a big box.
I also like how i can decorate the pages to reflect the feeling of the journal entry too :)
I'm all fired up to finally make the stickers i've been meaning to do for ages and send them to stickertraders.com.
excitement!
haha i was reding past blogs and i thought that i could just send 15 random stickers and get 15 or more pretty stickers back!! i was sooo excited!!! than i realized they have to be YOUR OWN sticker art...sadness. oh well better get to work!
