USPS Sunflower Bouquet Two Ounce Forever Stamps – Booklet of 20 Postage Stamps – For Wedding Invitations

This new stamp features five sunflowers as part of a bright and beautiful bouquet. As a two-ounce stamp, Sunflower Bouquet can accommodate the weight of heavy invitations for birthdays, weddings, anniversaries, and other celebrations; oversized greeting cards; and mailings such as small gifts that require extra postage.

The stamp art is a still life image of several orange-and-yellow sunflowers intermingled with irises, dahlias, echinacea (coneflowers), and other small red, purple, white, and pink flowers against a white background. To create this image, the photographer backlit the arrangement of flowers on a light box and made eight photographic exposures, resulting in a luminous, transparent look. Long treasured for bringing cheer to a summer landscape or garden, sunflowers grow in a wide array of sizes and color variations that make them popular in bouquets of cut flowers as well. When combined with a wide array of other flowers, bouquets like the one on this stamp convey a fond announcement of friendship and love.
