Philately is the study of stamps and is different, so Wikipedia tells me, to stamp collecting. I spent 2 hours+ on Friday night sorting my collection of postage stamps into colour themes. Why, you say? Well look below!
Lots of postage stamps have been upcycled into stickers! I used to use postage stamps on my cards (back when I used to make cards) and I had a box full that wasn't being used. When I found them again recently I knew that they could be turned into stickers. Oh and the green ones were listed for half an hour last night before being featured in a treasury!
You can see the treasury
here if you so wish :)
I have some more sorted into themes such as football, birds and *whispers* Christmas which should be coming soonish.
*Apologies to anyone who saw this post much shortened in their google reader last night- I clicked ctrl p and it published before I had change to write more than the title!

Oh what a great idea I have a bag of stamps somewhere (will have to dig them out).
I used stamps on my cards to (still do on the odd occasion).
They look beautiful all grouped together like that, love the brown & orange ones xxx
Fantastic - they look great sorted into different colour themes, very 'arty'! :)
