inspired by a cliché...

inspired by a cliché...

stamp of approval

July 11, 2015

have you ever dreamt of seeing one of your designs on a postage stamp?

I have, ever since I was a little girl, and this week my dream came one step closer to coming true  

back in the Spring I answered an open call from the wonderful Uppercase magazine to design a stamp for a real or imaginary country.  At the time I was surrounded by flowering Springtime bulbs and I was particularly loving the tulips growing in the pots in my garden.  There was only one country in the running for this design

you can imagine my excitement when I found out that my design was one of those selected to feature in the latest issue.  It's hot off the press and is currently being sent to all corners of the world, almost like the real thing
