I SPELL COLOR WITH A 'U'

My first stamp. For our British artists and for those foreigners who have learned the correct English. *Ducks out of way*

Shame I'm not a subscriber so I can use this, and I've got many more ideas for stamps so watch out! If you do use this stamp in your journal or shoutboard, you don't have to favourite it, but it would be nice if you comment :D

Created with $zilla774's stamp template

I'm latin, so English is my second language and those words that are both spelled with and without Us always annoy me. DX

What's with them anyway? Why the lack or adding of Us?

I'LL DRAW FOR YOU IF YOU DO! Instead of commissions I'll ask for a donation of a minimun of $5 and I will draw anything you want!

Well there is a difference between the spelling of some words in American English and British English. So in the UK we spell 'colour' and in USA they spell 'color'. There is a great page on Wikipedia which explains many of these differences.

Thanks for the :+fav: too!

I've always spelt it colour, and I'm not a foreigner or British. I've never lived with anybody who spells it like that.
Weird, huh?

I'm British and spell it "colour" because it's the only way I've been taught. I have an American friend who always has a go at me for spelling it like that. He annoys me sometimes. :XD:

Well, you should have a go at him back, make him see the true spelling ways! Not that I obsessive about spelling...

Thanks also for collecting this stamp and for using it!
