The U.S. Postal Service (USPS) has released a new flower-themed stamp collection called the Tulip Blossoms Forever stamps that celebrate the spring season. USPS engineering systems vice president Linda Malone said: "A gift of tulips can convey an array of meanings — love, friendship, gratitude and congratulations — just as these tulip-themed stamps make a perfect accessory to any mailing."
The Tulip Blossoms Forever stamps were designed by Greg Breeding, an art director for USPS. He designed the stamps by utilizing existing photographs taken by Denise Ippolito, who captured the images of 10 different tulips in gardens and parks during her travels. The stamps feature close-up images of a tulip flower with merely the top of the stem being shown. Additionally, the tulips are in a variety of different colors, including yellow, orange, pink, green, and violet. The Tulip Blossoms Forever stamps are available for purchase.
