Whether a maximum card is FIP-compliant or not, I still call it a Dorincard. This one is NOT.
I invite you to tell me WHY this is not FIP-compliant.
In a related story, I could tell you WHY I don't care, in this case.
Should you jump on me for calling this "a maximum card", I could instantly tell you "it's a Dorincard", a term that includes all the FIP-compliant maximum cards, and then some.
:)
BTW, this is just a temporary juxtaposition of those elements; I didn't affix/apply them yet.
Just a demo/comp/project/study/idea.
2010, the Year of the Tiger.

"Dorincard: Blogger Dorin C is a stamp and postcard fanatic, and luckily he's more than pleased to write prolifically and charmingly about his obsession. He has a particular bent for stamps with wild mammals on them, but his blog demonstrates an affinity for stamps of all forms and backgrounds, as long as they offer a special narrative that's worth sharing with his readers.

- Maximum Delight
- Feb 21, 2011
Postcards and stamps, mainly featuring mammals and birds but Dorincard also has other creations
and interests he likes to share.
His enthusiasm for Maximum cards (a postcard and a similar themed stamps sent through the
postal system) shines through.
He shows how he gets the right card, stamp and postmark together.
Visiting his site you will also learn things about the natural world told with a dry sense of humour,
possibly with a play on words, and a unique style of headings.
Topical and informative both for the enthusiast and casual visitor.

Whatever the case, it's beautiful! Are you going to tell us why it's not FIP compliant? :)
Hi,
It's far from beeing a maximun card :
- 2 stamps, you can have only one
- Zazzle stamps, the illustration is private and not part of the stamp in a philatelic way.
- the cancel doesn't seem to be related to the subject, by the way the cancel doesn't seem to be one, as it is on some kind a paper.
I tried to do maximum cards for personnalized stamps : http://www.blog-philatelie.com/2008/07/montimbramoi-et-cartes-maximum.html
The first one is not, the second perharps, and I think the third is !
Have fun.
