Postage stamps for the holiday season come with various themes.
- Santa and angel-with-church designs are on the Canada Permanent stamps this 2021 Christmas season.
- The Rudolph design is on the stamps for mailing to the USA.
- Santa’s elf goes international.
See Xmas stamp designs here.
The angel-with-church design is so lightweight that it’s really difficult to see. Nice colours though (gold on white).
