Greetings from the Critique Club!
Let me start off by saying that I like the bokeh filter, must try to make one :-) I like that they aren't jagged all around, the rounded parts give a Christmas-ornament feel to the shot. The focus on the one letter from Japan is very good as that face has so much character to it! Also like being able to see and read enough of the other stampmarks to give an idea as to where they came from and how the stamps define each country.
I think many read the composition as a little on the casual side, and the portrait orientation might have hurt your score a little. I gave a 6 during voting but it honestly didn't catch me enough to warrant voting higher. The blank space in the middle third of the pic disconnects the top part of the tree from the cards, and that may have been just enough to disengage voters. Show us a story!
Hope this helps
