The USPS posted a sneak peek of some of the 2025 stamps and I found out about it yesterday through a comment left by *Bull Terrier's Mom* - I'm so curious as to who that is... I'd love to know - if you'd care to email me. I won't tell anyone else - unless you want credit.

Bull Terrier Mom was curious if I was excited about any of the new designs.

YES!!!!! The new international stamp is a compass  - I LOVE it. I LOVE the new LOVE stamp because it is black/white/red - one of my most favorite color combinations - plus it is Keith Herring which is joyful and bold and inviting to the free-er styles of lettering. I LOVE the leaves and flowers - always beautiful and perfect for any style of lettering. I LOVE the baby animals - adorable, nice colors - can't wait to use them. The year of the snake and the green moth stamp are both beautiful. Betty White will be useful if anyone needs a purple stamp. The winter scenery and Appalcian trail stamps include good colors - they are more photographic - so don't really have little drawn details that I find useful - but the colors are good. Allen Toussaint will be great to have on hand because we always need some nice basic black options.

I think that's all of the Forevers. I clearly like them all and am looking forward to seeing the rest of them. 

I guess I ignored the flag stamp. There have been so many flags over the years - it's hard for them to come up with anything that's as good as the ones that were wildly exciting. I seldom do flag themed envelopes. This one is generic. Now I want do some research and figure out which one is my favorite flag stamp. Maybe I'll do that tomorrow.

Well, that took 2 minutes - there is only one flag stamp that appeals to me at all.

I like the look of it - but, I've always wondered if the flag was unfolded if it would be the right proportion. It looks like it would be way too wide for the height.
