Efficient Methods for Attaching Celebration Postage Stamps to Invitations for Time-Saving ♡

Sticking Stamps on Invitations is Surprisingly Difficult!
Invitations are a very important way to communicate essential information to guests, such as the date and venue of the wedding, requests for roles on the day, and details about the after-party.
Once everything is prepared and addressed, the last task is to [stick stamps on the envelope and response postcard].
This task can be surprisingly challenging...!!
If you're using sticker-type stamps like Happy Greeting stamps, all you have to do is peel them off and stick them on, but many brides use [celebratory stamps].
With celebratory stamps, first, you have to carefully separate each one to avoid tearing (← this is the most nerve-wracking part!)
Then you apply glue (or water) without spilling over,
and finally, stick them on straight.
It's a simple task, but...
Cutting them out from the sheet that you bought, along the dotted lines, to separate them vertically and horizontally for "80 invitations is time-consuming and monotonously tough," and "my hands get sticky and it's annoying..." are some of the comments I've heard.
[This is Efficient!] Here’s a Tip for Sticking Stamps♡
So!
I found a very efficient way of sticking stamps on Instagram by @a.h_wd_525 and thought it was worth sharing.
①
Fold the connected celebratory stamps back and forth alternately along the dotted line (make a concertina fold).
②
Moisten just the very top stamp.
③
Stick the moistened stamp straight onto the envelope and press it down with your finger.
④
While still pressing it down, detach the stamp right below it.
(Repeat this process!)

I shared the efficient way of sticking stamps on invitations and response postcards introduced by @a.h_wd_525.
With this method,
✓ You don't need to tear each stamp individually at the beginning, which saves a lot of time.
✓ Since you cut the stamps while they're already stuck, there's no worry of them tearing.
✓ The stamps won't scatter everywhere, so there's no stress.
is the charm of this method♡
