Postage Stamp Letterhead Maker
A Christmas stamp, franked with your family initial — perforated edge, holly sprig, gold star and all. Type your letter, pick the ink colour, and download with the stamp baked in.
The postage stamp, and why it is franked
A Christmas stamp carrying the family initial — perforated edge, holly sprig, gold star — with a franking mark across it, because an unfranked stamp reads as a sticker while a franked one reads as a letter that has travelled. It is the most playful design in the Christmas set and suits a family newsletter, a card insert, or a letter to grandchildren. The stamp sits at the head with the FROM block beside it, exactly as an envelope would.
The initial, the ink colour and the size are all live above; the download bakes the stamp in as one graphic so the perforations stay crisp.
Specifications: US Letter, 8.5 × 11 inches, portrait. The Word download is a .dotx template with the artwork embedded at print resolution; it opens in Word 2007 through Microsoft 365, including Word for Mac. The Google Docs button opens a copy in your own Drive. One page, fully editable, free — no account and no watermark.
