For the Love of Stickers

My grandmother put stickers on everything that she mailed or wrapped. They came on envelopes, postcards and packages. She bought them everywhere. Do you remember the little sticker books that were about 3 x 5" and had pages of punch out stickers? They came in all sorts of varieties and subjects. Most of these are from the late 1960s and early 1970s.I don't know why, but one day my grandmother seems to have gone through all her little books and punched out all the little stickers and I found them all neat and tidy in an old case for a deck of cards. Fittingly it had a rose on it....
I am keeping some of the stickers for sentimental reasons but am letting the rest go. I have listed a few in my shop but I have tons more ;-)

What would you do with these stickers if you had them to use in a project or two or three?

  1. I love stickers! I would make some sort of collage with them included in it. I've thought about taking all of my thank you cards that I receive from etsy shops and make one with them then hang in in my craft room.

  2. Cute stickers! I remember collecting them when I was a little kid... I had an album just full of them. Those stickers you have would make a great collage! ;)
