I've no hearts to show for this week's theme so I start with some flowers from the USA.

| USA - Flowers 2001 |
I must say that I am not keen on these four as I would have preferred to see them in a more natural state, the backgrounds make the flower less clear.
So I decided that I would send my love some roses from Scandinavia instead.

| Sweden - 1996 |
It was only when I enlarged them that I realized they were azaleas and not roses at all.
Perhaps I can be luckier with:

| Sweden - Four-leafed clover |
While I wait for the verdict you may try your luck over at Viridian's Sunday-stamps-109
I hadn't seen any of these before, a nice selection of blooms :)
ReplyDeleteHi Bob .. stamp designers I suppose need to be different at time .. as I was scrolling down the 'roses' I was thinking - no! Glad you realised .. the four-leafed clover from Sweden - I wonder why ...
ReplyDeleteGood to see the variations though - cheers Hilary
I don't remember the flower stamps from the USA at all - and I should. Hmm.
ReplyDeleteAnyway, thank you for participating.
Yeah, I was wondering that, why 4 leaf clover from Sweden, Ireland maybe? I like the American stamps.
ReplyDeleteI'm sure your love will be just as pleased with azaleas Bob :)
ReplyDeleteI would have pegged the Swedish clover stamps for Irish St. Patrick Day stamps.
ReplyDeleteI like your storyboard :)
ReplyDeleteI had to look up the Swedish stamp, and came up with 25 years of United Nations, which left me just as confused....
and I agree about the top flowers, the soft, diffused look might be better on a poster.
I got a Service unavailable message so you may or may not already have a comment from me.
ReplyDeleteLike Marcie, I thought the bottom ones were for St Patrick's Day. All of them are new to me.
