If you ordered something from La Papierre or received a letter from me in 2013, chances are you saw my new personalized stamps on the envelope. They were a present from my mom – I designed the stamps online at Canada Post, my dear mommy paid for them and they were delivered to me just in time for my birthday.

They were made with photos I took of my heart shaped sushi, Sphynx cats, Bengal cat and favorite Smurf:

Has anyone else ever ordered personalized stamps before? Can you do that in every country?

My son has been fascinated by maps for a long time.

I think it’s awesome that my 8 year old boy has an interest in geography and I want to encourage that! So if anyone has a map or two to spare (or even a map postcard), I’m sure he would be thrilled to get a little something in the mail!

You can make his day by sending a little surprise to:

Thank you!

Does anyone else’s child have an interest in maps?! Maybe they could become map buddies!
