USPS has unveiled its special Made of Hearts stamp that is a continuation of the United States Postal Service tradition of creating stamps that celebrate love. The item features horizontal lines pink hearts on a white background. The focal point of the stamp’s design is a large red heart that is made of many small red hearts in varying sizes. Antonio Alcalá designed the stamp and was art director for this project.
Today the heart symbol is one we all recognise. We link it with romantic love, sentimentality and passion. The Heart symbol is universally seen as a quintessential representation of love, especially (though not solely) of romantic love. It signifies both physical and eternal love. Various cultures through the ages have associated the symbol with affection, compassion, joy, and charity.
Made of Hearts Love stamp introduced by USPS is being issued for use at Valentine’s Day and at other holidays. This item is just right for thank-you notes, get well cards or any occasion when love is the perfect message.
