Stamps for new projects are sometimes easy to find, having already been sorted into countries, subjects, colours or just "may be useful for a certain idea not yet started ". But more often than not, I find myself rummaging around in boxes and bags for likely materials for new projects, or in the latest case to find ordinary definitives in pastel shades to complete a large picture of the Shard abandoned last year due other projects of more immediate interest to me, and I might add, the fiddly nature of the task I'd set myself!
There's something quite therapeutic about sorting through heaps of stamps, and I often find little treasures which make me smile, such as this delightful Isle of Man stamp showing Postman Pat and his Black and White cat. And I have a black and white cat of my own, who also appreciates a good box of stamps.
