“Vintage with a dash of kitsch and glitter.” The following was translated using Google Translate and will be replaced by the official PostNL English translation when we get it.

The December stamps of PostNL were designed this year by Sanny van Loon. The illustrator from Amsterdam is known for the cheerful and colorful work that she makes for Flow Magazine. Her illustrations are also popular on Instagram.

Each stamp sheet contains 20 December stamps in ten different designs. Sanny’s specific style in the 10 illustrations is clearly recognizable with color areas and some line details. In her work so-called half-colors, which she constantly composes herself, play an important role. For the December stamps she combined golden yellow, warm red and Christmas green with ice blue.
