Love the camel, and the dramatic skies.
And it is nice to see the bible verse in the old stamp.
Hope you are having a happy Christmas this year.
Lovely!
I'm not a religious person, however I loved last year's watercolors on the Royal Mail Christmas stamps. Thanks for showing the whole set. And the camel is still a favorite!
I liked those British ones and that Australia one is so typical of the era.
Best Christmas wishes to you, Joy.
Even I liked last years Christmas stamps.
