Stamps

I thought I'd like to have a go at the 'postage people' who seem to be quite popular at the moment, but when it came down to it I realised I don't actually have many postage stamps with faces on them and secondly I don't really have any rubber stamps to do the bodies with. So I made the most of what I do have, an old playing card and a US stamp of author Edna Ferber http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Edna_Ferber
My entire stamp collection, apart from three copies of Edna it's a guys' world
