I made this sample block to see how everyone likes it.

I used the folded rosebud and ruched rose from the Baltimore BOM tutes I posted. Everyone seemed to like them, so I decided to try it.

I used the black checked background to give it a contemporary feel, so it doesn't seem so traditional.

Looking for feedback everyone. Should I continue or change the background?

Let me know what you think of the background.

I love it, but I think the background hides all your wonderful work.

I had the same question and my postal worker said it depends on how far it's going and how many different post offices it has to transfer through.

That's beautiful. I love the flower is it 3 d it looks like it is textured.
As to po I think it depends on the person as I said I have brought the same thing to 2 different people and the difference was crazy.

Thanks for the feedback, I'll go through my stash and look for a different background.
