How to Create Photo Stamps
It's easy to personalize stamps with your own photos. For a few dollars plus the price of postage, you can take your photos and put them onto postage stamps. These stamps are perfect for special mailings, such as for wedding invitations or birth announcements. The stamps can be created with any of the standard mailing rate denominations, so heavier mailings, such as wedding announcements, can be accommodated.
