I'm not usually a fan of insecty things, but this combination of stamps and envelope is delightful.
ReplyDeleteVery nice envelope and stamps! I think I have received one stamp from this series. I must check which bee it shows!
ReplyDeleteBees are essential for the existence of our foods by fertilising flowers and plants. They give a buzz to me.
ReplyDeleteI like insects on stamps, and as Bob says, bees are so important for pur lifes.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful stamps and envelope!
(Alas I won't contribute to Sunday Stamps the coming time, as my desktop crashed last Sunday, the hard disk containing all my scanned stamps :-) And blogging via my phone still doedn't succeed)
Oh, sorry about your computer. I thought it had crashed short ago... You need a new one! :|
DeleteLove bees, what an interesting name for this species.
