Ornamental patterns in Helsinki's special stamp this Christmas The traditional Christmas stamp that completes a genuine Christmas greeting has been very popular among customers. Every year, the Helsinki special stamp has decorated about 300,000 Christmas greetings. This year's Helsinki stamp was designed by Susanna Rumpu and Ari Lakaniemi . The subject of the stamp is ornamental patterns. The theme of the stamp is well suited to complement the pictorial themes of this year’s Christmas signs. The ornament pattern is decorated with other stamps. The stamp also reads the text Christmas Julen. In the crib stamp this Christmas, Mary, Joseph and the child Jesus Lahden seimileimassa on tänä vuonna kuvattuna Maria, Joosef ja Jeesus-lapsi sekä taustalla Keski-Lahden seurakunnan Ristin kirkon torni. Joosefin maski viittaa pandemiaan ja Toivon tähti siitä pois pääsemiseen. Tähti viittaa myös Betlehemin tähteen, jota kuvataan usein ohuella nelisakaraisella tähdellä. Seimileimoja on julkaistu vuodesta 2005 lähtien lähes vuosittain. Tänä vuonna kuudettatoista kertaa julkaistavan seimileiman on suunnitellut aiempien vuosien tapaan heraldikko Tapani Talari.
