Printing your own postal stamps
Not all that is handy is nice. Take, for instance, digital postal stamps. How can you positively feel nostalgic when you have to pen down a Sudoko sequence of 9 or 12 numbers on the top right corner of an envelope? I feel a bit like cheating on the art of philately.
DRESS -your stationary- TO IMPRESS
Dutch Post offers the possibility to order your own postal stamps. All you need is an image stored in your computer, upload it here, and Dutch Post turns it into an eye-catching stamp. Many countries offer this possibility. The stamps cost a few extra cents, but they are worth that.
Should you like to commission a postal stamp, there is no need to look further. I have designed postal stamps and I can do the same for you. All I need is your favourite theme, perhaps an animal, a butterfly, or a flower?
Here are a few of my designs: mandarin ducks, angel wings, and/or Christmas stamps.
The wonderful thing about a commission is that you might use the commissioned drawing also for a personalized bookplate.
Contact me freely to discuss your wishes.
