Thanks to my Postcrossing friend, Eeva, I have the Finnish stamps. They are for second class postage and show Lake Mustalampi in the Nuuksio National Park through the four seasons. Designed by Klaus Welp his idea was that you could use the appropriate stamp for the season. I love how not only is each stamp a reflection they also reflect each other, the reverse number, class of postage and the Europa symbol on the Autumn/Winter one.
An entry to Viridian Postcard's Sunday Stamps, this week it is "anything you like".

Such a clever design for this set. And beautiful too. thanks for participating!
Definitely different with striking colours.
An interesting and pretty design. I'll have to look at the other Europa forest stamps.
I love those stamps! They seem very keen on the four seasons in Finland. I've had a few cards showing them.
Beautiful stamps depecting forests.

Not all of the Europa stamps have been issued yet... Austria's edition will be issued in August! There is another stamp with forrests available now, but that is not the real Europa stamp.
That is an exquisite pairing of stamps. Forests seems like a great theme!
For some reason, I found Finland to always have the very interesting stamp.
Thanks for visiting my Sunday Stamp.
Wow, very cool stamps! Is this what they call a se-tenant stamp? I agree, Finland has one of the coolest stamps around :)
