how did you find the stamps coming out for next year? does the post office list them already? hmmm, will be checking that out after I'm done being nosey on your wonderful blog. I really loved the Snoopy stamps, wish they would bring those back...I see you have Owney the postal dog, I will have to check that out, sounds pretty cute...I'm imagining some cute dog prints walking across an envie...maybe a fire hydrant? LOL
ReplyDeletewas just perusing the usps site, not finding the 2011 stamps, maybe i'm not looking around in the right spot?? anyways...what i fif find, is some NEAT custom stamps!!! they are a bit above the going postal rate, but for a special occasion may be worth it. maybe you are already aware of this, but thought just in case you weren't i would let you know!!! snail mail, and stamp people unite!!
ReplyDeletei found a site with the list by googling. eventually, the usps site will have the list and pictures of each stamp. probably within a month or so. i'll post a link when it is up.
ReplyDeletethank you for your comments
