stuff i like

Such a sweet little piece. The illustration style is  light hearted and fun and the colors are unusual. It expresses the sentiment "cheers" perfectly. A sample from a paper company, Neenah, the paper is Classic Columns, a duplex cover sheet: Solar White on one side, Easter Chick Yellow on the other.

Interesting ... a similar color palette but in a more traditional style. This illustration is a cropped portion of one of a series of stamps that portrayed flowering trees from different geographical regions of the US. This is the Pacific Crab Apple. Stamps were 22¢ at the time. Looks like it was 1998.
