This is a photograph of a greeting card with a repeat pattern of flying white birds on a background of a strong, bright blue and with a black and white zigzag border. The card is on a wooden table alongside some spring flowers.

In case there's no blue sky where you are (it's all grey here again☁️), how about some birds and a cheerful bright blue to help us all daydream of brighter days πŸ’™

This is a montage of 4 photos featuring stacks and groups of brightly coloured greeting cards. I've been making lots for shops this week!

This is a montage of 4 photos featuring stacks and groups of brightly coloured greeting cards. I've been making lots for shops this week!

I've been making cards and enjoying all the patterns!
These designs might work nicely as a set of notebooks, or even tea towels - what do you think?

For now they're available as greeting cards here :
