Faux Pas

Ah well - I was going to try to be 'good' and hand-adresses my envelopes, but I'm running into a wee bit of a problem. I have the most GORGEOUS envelopes - a matte copper color that looks almost like hammered metal. They are very pretty, but - they don't take any kind of ink well. The paper soaks up the ink (roller ball, gel, regular ballpoint) and leaves it faded. I'm not willing to chance that it will keep fading after it gets out of my hands - and the address becomes illegible.
So - I'm going to do the unthinkable - I'm using labels. They are going to be clear, and done in a nice scriptlike print....but labels they will be. Ah well. I'll most likely be the main one who notices, with my luck.
