Christmas Cards for 2009

Posted by rachelcreative on October 19, 2009

I’m starting to list the christmas cards I’ve made in my Folksy shop.

There are packs of printed cards (from my own art work), packs of hand drawn cards and individual pop-up cards which are drawn and assembled by hand.

All the cards are all my own work.

Printed Christmas Card Packs

Each pack has 4 cards of the same design (left to right):

  • christmas tree cat
  • christmas cat
  • penguin plays
  • christmas bear
  • penguin flippers
  • penguins forever (upside down in this 1st photo!)

The cards are 105mm x 148mm printed on 250gsm cardstock and come in a cellophane pack with envelopes.

I have a limited stock but am able to produce more on demand.

Hand Drawn Christmas Card Packs

Packs contain 4 cards, each a different design and each drawn in ink with watercolour. Cards are 125mm x 125mm and come in a cellophane pack with envelopes.

Penguin Pop-Up Greeting Cards

I currently have 4 penguin pop-up greeting cards.  Each is unique.

They feature original penguin drawings on the front of each card as well as part of the pop up in the inside the cards.

They can be used as christmas cards but are blank so could be used for any occasion.

Each card is drawn in ink and coloured with watercolour. Cards are 120mm x 120mm smooth acid free 300gsm card stock and comes in a cellphane sleeve with envelope.

    OMG!! You are on your way; such a distinctive and whimsical style. Absolutely perfect for cards. Pls let me know when you start to figure out how to have a factory produce your pop-ups:-)

    Very nice. I like that you haven’t diluted the cards with text. Let people write their own words. :)
