For Macro Monday - Stamp
With very little mail coming these days and even fewer items that have stamps on them I had to trawl through my physical files to find an envelope with a stamp, and that had a franking stamp on it. This one was from three years ago.
Happy Macro Monday!
Hi there,
Don't you just hate it when you have a stack of envelopes to mail and there's only one stamp left? HMM!
Thanks a million for stopping by and for leaving a comment. Have a great week!

I can remember when, as a kid, I used to put postcards or postal enveloppes on top of a pan full of boiling water, so that I could detach the stamps without damaging them and collect them neatly in albums...
My collection is long gone (I've sold it for a ridiculously low price at a flea market in my teens), but I'm sometimes tempted again to put aside a few nice stamps. Maybe out of nostalgy.
For preparing this shot, I've started the process with a water boiler beforehand. Then for taking the picture I've been using the steam from an air humidifier, placed under the stamps.
This is one of the few shots with roughly the right amount of steam-induced blurriness but still enough crispness in the subject. 😊
many years ago, I was into paper crafting and made this embossed/stamped piece of paper.... using toilet paper!
The only stamp that actually looked like one in the house!
Better viewed large and thank you for your favourites.
These stamps were used in my father -in-law's jewelry factory. The 800 was used to stamp silver jewelry, and the GAM
Trademark designates jewelry made of gold alloy less that 375°°. The width of the "800" is about 2mm.
The stamps themselves have a hook shape to allow stamping on the inside of finished rings.
Macro Mondays: Stamp
I had bought these little tags and letter stamps a while ago from Dollarama and figured they would someday come in handy for a photo op. I am not a crafty person and my OCD is getting to me that the stamped words aren't spaced right; on the otherhand, I don't mind how it looks because it wasn't made in a factory by a machine...lol
Thank you very much for your views and kind comments. HMM!

Many thanks for all your views, faves and comments.
Love those forever postal stamps, the price you pay is good forever and with stamps going up it is nice to have a few hundred laying around.

Thanks to Macro Mondays I found out why Italian vinyl ist always stamped: it's the SIAE stamp - Società Italiana Autori Editori, the Italian association of authors and publishers.

Crocus (English plural: crocuses or croci) is a genus of flowering plants in the iris family comprising 90 species of perennials growing from corms. Many are cultivated for their flowers appearing in autumn, winter, or spring. The spice saffron is obtained from the stigmas of Crocus sativus, an autumn-blooming species. Crocuses are native to woodland, scrub, and meadows from sea level to alpine tundra in North Africa and the Middle East, central and southern Europe, in particular Krokos, Greece, on the islands of the Aegean, and across Central Asia to Xinjiang Province in western China.
A Macro Mondays submission on the topic "Stamp". What better stamp to choose for this theme than this stamp honouring George Eastman, founder of Kodak, seen on a first day cover honoring his 100th birthday.
Macro Monday challenge "Stamp". I bought this stamp years ago to use with my artwork. Great challenge since I hadn't thought about using stamps for a long time. Will give them a try now!
A small 'ideas' notebook that I always have to hand. It has a leather case stamped with a maker's mark.
The case has a beaten copper panel on the front, and was hand-made by my metalsmith friend Laurie. It was an adventure into working with leather and metals together.

For Macro Mondays "Ceramic Theme.
In ancient times when stamps were not self sticking you activated the glue by licking the back of the stamp which got old very fast. One stamp was OK but a bunch led to a disgusting glue build up on your tongue. As an alternative you could fill this device about half full of water and as you drug the stamp over the top the roller would pick up a water and apply it to the stamp. It actually worked reasonably well. It is 100% ceramics, including the axle.
