For Christmas 2022:

MaltaPost has issued two Stamps (S) together with a Miniature Sheet (MS) which also bears two stamps within it. 

Set as "Santa's Workshop", The busy workshop is seen inside a wintry landscape as Santa busies himself reading a letter from one of the children (who has made a request for Christmas presents, as he/she has been a good boy/girl throughout the year), in front of a roaring fire.

Elves are painting toys and packing sacks ready for their Christmas Eve delivery, while garlands, wreaths, candy sticks and bells animate the cosy scene. The two stamps depict Santa in his chair with one of the elves opening a shiny red letterbox.

Two First Day Covers (FDCs) - One bearing the two stamps issued and the other bearing the Miniature Sheet (MS), both cancelled with a special Cancellation Handstamp/Postmark of MaltaPost Philatelic Bureau. The date of Cancellation is - "29.11.2022".
