Christmas Teddy Bear


This is an earlier made Christmas card (actually the hat was missing, so I waulked and added it now) which I sent out now this year.
The teddy bear is wishing Merry Christmas!




We in Finland get new Christmas stamps for each Christmas (it would be nice to know how it is in other countries!).

These Christmas stamps are designed by Minna Immonen http://www.minnakortti.fi/minna_l_immonen/
I have always liked her postcard designs, and I like these stamps as well.

  6. In the U.S. there are always two new holiday season stamps introduced every year. One is always religious themed--usually a Madonna and child scene or the like. The other is a more generic winter themed one such as Christmas ornaments, snowflakes, etc. The U.S. Postal Service also issues stamps each year from Chanukah, Kwanza and also for the Muslim holiday season a little earlier. After the first of the year there is usually a Lunar New Year stamp that changes each year to match the year--Tiger, Rat, Dragon, etc. The stamp for the Muslim holidays is the same every year as it's in Arabic calligraphy. The others change each year.
