new stamp designs

i am always searching for new stamp designs to complete the look of the envelope. bills, thank you notes, invitations...it doesn't matter. i want to avoid the standard forever bell, if possible. i love when a stamp adds a pop of color or a suprise design element. here are a few new ones i stumbed across...
there are 10 stamps hidden on this sheet...so cool!

look at this seating chart!

inspired by a plinko board, this gorgeous creation served as a seating chart for a wedding in st. louis, missouri in september 2008. wow!

manifesto for slow communication

there was a stellar article in last weekend's edition of the wall street journal about the art of good old fashioned letterwriting. couldn't agree with them more. it's a great read. check it out here:
