Free Collectors Stamps Giveaway

There is a wonderful display cabinet in our local post office, which is always being filled with products available from the Spanish Post Office (especially if you sign up for a new financial service:) - ranging from special edition stamps, to crockery or even a suitcase! Today, I spotted these commemorative stamps and couldn't resist buying some to share with you.

The Spanish postal service have printed a short run of these stamps, they are limited to a few thousand of each. Most of these stamps have already been snapped up by dealers and collectors. They are very collectable - they may even have a monetory value in the future.

These stamps are big, over 4 inches high and slightly more than 3 inches across. One stamp is a delightful illustration with a moral, "don't forget to send a letter". The other stamp is a reproduction of a Spanish tapestry. I love the bold colors and the traditional feel they both have.




The stamps can be used for scrapbooking, decoupage, montage or just looking at and enjoying.

If you would like these stamps, I would ask that you a) become a follower of this blog of mine, and b) simply leave a comment below. I shall be picking a winner at random next Thursday, July 23rd, and send the stamps anywhere in the world, for free.

Good luck!
