			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div align="center"><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/sophistishe/3278163286/" title="GQ Jay VDAY Card Design by sophistishe, on Flickr"><img class="pic" src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3259/3278163286_988937489d.jpg" width="500" height="357" alt="GQ Jay VDAY Card Design" /></a></div>
<p><br/>For Valentine&#8217;s Day I decided to design Valentine&#8217;s Day photo cards of Boogie and send them out to family. I had the design completed weeks ago but why will I be mailing them today&#8230;Valentine&#8217;s Day? Time always seems to get away from me no matter how hard I try to do things early.</p>
<p>When thinking about the design of the photo cards, I wanted to dress Boogie up like Cupid and go with red schemed cards. The more I thought about it, the more unoriginal and babyish the idea seemed. I mean come on, Boogie is too mature for that, lol! When I look at him, I see a big boy in a little dumpling&#8217;s body. I thought it would be best to do GQ themed photo cards.</p>
<div align="center"><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/sophistishe/3277333971/" title="Sending out Valentine's Day photo cards by sophistishe, on Flickr"><img class="pic" src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3303/3277333971_4268222cf2_o.jpg" width="500" height="333" alt="Sending out Valentine's Day photo cards" /></a></div>
<p><br/>To add a special touch, I decided to use customized <a href="http://photo.stamps.com" target="_blank">Photo Stamps</a> on each envelope. </p>
<p>I know, I know. Postage is already <a href="http://www.myfoxny.com/dpp/news/090210_Postage_Rates_Go_Up_on_May_1" target="_blank">through the roof</a>, so it is hard to justify the price of Photo Stamps. If you <u><i>choose</i></u> to purchase Photo Stamps, it&#8217;s best to use them for special occasions. Send them to people who would appreciate them. Order a sheet of 27 cent stamps and then use a regular <a href="http://shop.usps.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/ProductDisplay?catalogId=10152&#038;storeId=10001&#038;categoryId=11828&#038;productId=29571&#038;langId=-1&#038;WT.ac=29571" target="_blank">17 cent stamp</a> to foot the balance. It always helps to check online for coupon codes as well.</p>
<p>I can&#8217;t wait until the photo cards arrive in the hands of our family and friends. I know they are going to love and get an extra kick out of the little hottie on the postage.</p>
<p><i>Special thanks to the folks at <a href="http://stamps.com" target="_blank">stamps.com</a> for providing us with Photo Stamps this Valentine&#8217;s Day!</i></p>
