Did you know that stamps have a history rich in politics and culture? I didn't before this assignment. I tried to stay true to that tradition in creating this stamp.
The commonly used phrase "the hand that rocks the cradle..." comes from a poem originally written in 1865 by William Ross Wallace. It praised motherhood as a force for change in the world. A force that still holds true today I believe. I hope you enjoy the stamp as much as I enjoyed making it.
Didn't get to say this in class, but I love your stamp. It conveys such an important message in a beautiful way.
