Sunday Stamps: Patterns

 Good day, and welcome to my blog.  It is a cool (for late April) day but sunny and clear.  It's time for Sunday Stamps.

The them for this week is Patterns.  This stumped me for a bit.  I finally settled on this stamp from Turkey:

This is from a series on Calligraphy, I believe.  I picked this because of the subtle pattern in the background.

Sunday Stamps: Churches

 Good day, and welcome Easter Sunday!  It is a nice sunny day here in the American Midwest, and it's time for Sunday Stamps.

Our theme is Churches, and I have a stamp I have shared before, but it's a great one for today.

This is an image of one of rose windows in Notre Dame in Paris.  It was produced by Zazzle.com, under a contract with the US Postal Service.  You could produce your own customized postage stamps (for a fee of course), or choose from designs made by other people.  Zazzle is still in business but discontinued the postage stamps in 2020.  I did a few sheets of my own postage stamps once.  Zazzle produces all sorts of personalized products.

I wonder how collectable these Zazzle stamps are?

Sunday Stamps: the color white

 Good day, and welcome to my stamp blog.  It is a cold cloudy Spring day in the American Midwest, and time for Sunday Stamps.

The theme today is the color white.

I have a stamp I have shared before - issued in 2009 by the US Postal Service.

White cake and white flowers.  In 2009 this was issued for large or overweight first class mail.  Wedding invitations in the USA often include a reply card and reply envelope, so would be overweight.

The cake looks delicious!

Sunday Stamps: Waterfalls

 Good Day and welcome to my blog.  It's a cool rainy Spring day in the American Midwest, and the rivers are flooding.

But it's still time for Sunday Stamps.

The theme today is waterfalls.  I don't have any stamps in hand, but I went to the USPS website and found a set of Appalachian Trail stamps, just issued in February.  And three feature waterfalls!

These scans are from the USPS website.  They look like they feature beautiful scenery.
