Ok, Ok, I know it said under the stamp, but I got started and couldn't stop. Besides, these really are small flowers :)

-Canon 10D, 50mm Macro, tripod, remote release
-USM, less than 50% of full frame

Thanks,

I really like this stamp effect- could you share what program you used to make this? A lovely flower :)

Thanks for the comments.

Cindy, I borrowed a similarly sized stamp image from a royalty-free website and removed the original image and enlarged the fringe to match my photo. I then copied my image and pasted it into the field of white. The lettering and numbering (Arial/Western/Bold) were added last to match a USPS stamp as well as the small text to label the flower and credit the photo.
