Juliana sent this in Sept. I am writing this on Oct 17. Her October envelope arrived yesterday and it had a note enclosed that was block printing that looked like Juliana was/is an architect. But, I think she's too young to have been studying back in the day when architects had to letter everything beautifully on the blueprints. So - maybe Juliana will fill me in on whether she's had training as an architect or graphic designer or sign painter. Her lettering skill could be entirely self taught. I'll report back if I find out.

Two add-ons today - first one is for stamp nerds afficianados - people are posting the new 2025 stamp designs. USPS should be announcing theirs very soon. You may see stamps from other countries here.
We'll be adding a snake to our Chinese New Year series - aren't these from Singapore wOnDeRfuL!!!!

And here is an add-on for the math nerds afficianados -- although I have no idea how many we have....there is a tie in with fonts - and we probably have a few of those.
Perhaps there is math+font nerd afficianado who reads the blog. If you are neither, your gift for the day is that you will not be tempted to click on the link and will get going on the stuff that truly needs to be done today.
If you watch the video that shows how the special math characters were invented with a typewriter, here is the new-fangled way to to get them.
Would love to hear your opinions on 2025 US stamps. Any you are excited about?
ReplyDeleteI love Julianna's style. My envelopes from her are always so pretty.
