well yesterday i said i had some fantastic news ....
i am delighted to tell you that i have been asked by THE STAMP MAN to be a part of their design team!!
i am very flattered and it took me a while to make the decision to agree, as i am a bit lacking in self confidence, but i have taken the plunge and will give it my best!!

i made this to represent the medal podium of the olympics

  15. Hi Tony
    I love your take on the theme. I understand your feelings of lack of confidence. I felt exactly the same when Jill asked me to join the team. But I think it helps motivate you to try and think outside the box. From what I have seen of your work, you just need to believe in yourself!!
