Stamps

The set

Postmark

Die cut first day cover

I went back to college this year to top up my skills and am doing the last year of a BA (Hons) in Communication Design and have just sat back after producing this set of stamps for the RSA design directions brief in assoc with the Royal Mail.

The brief was to attract teens and young adults as buyers and collectors and as they were looking for innovation in all aspects of the design they are actually printed on nice and shiny biodegradable acetate. I'm up against probably 80 - 90 other students from round the country... the award is £3000 - about $6000 - and a load of great publicity for the winner!

(All the images except the photo element are hand drawn and no vectors were hurt in the making of this production)
