🏠 Design and Artistic Background

This festive stamp series features four unique gingerbread houses, each crafted from gingerbread, royal icing, and various candies. The houses are adorned with sugary fruit slices for shingles, peppermint sticks for support beams, and round, candy-coated chocolates for doorknobs and holly berries, all set against a bright blue background.

  • Gingerbread House Designer: Teresa Layman

  • Photographer: Sally Andersen-Bruce

  • Art Director and Designer: Derry Noyes

The collaboration between Layman and Andersen-Bruce began in 2007, leading to the creation of gingerbread houses specifically designed to “read well” on small stamps. After several iterations and years in the USPS design vault, the stamps were finally released in 2013.
