A few cards going out after holidays…
I’m very happy with my D’Artacan (the main character of a spanish cartoon in the 80’) shaped stamp. The only trouble is that I have had to hide them from my kids, for they pretend to use them as decorative stickers all around the house
Nice iberian lynx too
I’m back after a holiday! Lots of cards going out with mixed older stamps. I’m particularly pleased where I managed to match two stamps of the same series (63p+43p).
Private swaps out today- 2 UNESCO cards Sydney and Victoria to Taiwan (@jaxsonpeng) migratory shorebird to China (@Daleth23) and snow gum to the Netherlands (@Wertha) !
Would have written more but as it is I almost missed the postie pick up! Yay lockdown for two more weeks for my state meant I almost missed the post cut off… oops
I love planes, excellent
A regular postcrossing and three swaps
These two to Belgium (@Tamara84)
Wedgetail Eagle to Canada (@thepaperglobetrotter)
Today China Post issued the 70 years anniversary of peace libration of Tibet stamp. although I was too lazy to get up early for the newly-issued stamp, I managed to get the special postmark for outgoing postcards!
My favorite stamp is the Phoenix one with golden foil.
The postmark features the Potala Palace and the Fuxing Train running at 160kph on Shigatze-Lhasa-Linzhi railway.
I’m using this stamp for my outgoing postcards from Croatia at the moment (they didn’t have any other stamps at the post office):
I have a stock of around 1,000 stamps (including eurovalue and older 1 lk and 2 lk stamps) to use. (Let’s talk about hoarding. )
Here’s some samples.
Those stamps with alpine skiiers are 3 D. I like those stamps with different Finnish national parks.
I like especially that blackberry stamp.
A joint issue Hongkong & Finland
A joint issue Sweden & Finland
A joint issue Greenland & Finland
The cat , the snowflake and the student cap are my favourites.
The fairy stamps around the Moomin are rapidly becoming my new favourites, they have glitter on them!
Featuring two famous soft canvas Moomin stamps.
Probably the most beautiful stamps the Finnish post ever issued.
Some newer stamps
I have managed to get my hands a set of Finnish postcrossing stamps and a set of opera stamps as well. I don’t normally like flower stamps, but those flower stamps by Anna-Mari West are lovely. And the rock/metal band stamps just rock!
