Stamp Size

 

This took me way too long. Although the definitive plus rectangle size is a legitimate stamp format, Royal Mail didn't include it in the brief pack so I had to make the rectangle part myself which was difficult as the border kept stretching meaning that when die cut the two parts would not line up properly. So I had to re-make it myself, I really need to improve my Illustrator skills somehow...

 

I tried using the image as the stamp with the value and Queen's head in the corners, then the rectangle is free to display the text. I'm a lot happier with this, so I think I just need to work on the typography and artwork the rest of the stamps now.
