Postal Designer

Designing a stamp for Canada is a prestigious project and only the best artists and designers are commissioned to do so. Much thought goes into the design of stamps; will the image be strong at stamp size, how will the details print, will the subject offend any citizens, and so on. From my experience projects with government organizations generally involve working with a committee which makes the process even more difficult as you have more than one person to please with your design.

You can now avoid the hassle of working your way to the top and being asked to design a stamp by using Canada Post's Picture Postage application that helps you create personalized stamps for you and your loved ones. While stamps are thoroughly checked over and inappropriate designs are rejected, it is a fun opportunity to put an extra personal touch on your holiday cards and mail.
