If you have ever really liked the design on a card and wanted to frame it, but the
quality of the print or the paper was not suited to this, then you may like the idea
of having a design printed as a card on a choice of some of these Fine Art Papers,
which are very high quality papers that are prized for the quality of their surface
and their durability. Below are a choice of 4 different fine art papers for folded
paper note cards, several of which are made from cotton, which is a traditional way
of making paper particularly from rag, a very old method of recycling, and rag paper
is sometimes made from cuttings left over from making up cotton garments. It is
usually quite a strong paper which lasts a long time and does not often “yellow”
with age, although it is rarely a “bright” white, rather a natural ivory colour.
There is one FSC grade paper made from wood pulp, which is *acid free*, has a rich
creamy colour and deckled edges. The images are printed with water based inks and
the cards are wrapped in clear biodegradable bags. The labels are made from recycled
paper. Cards are blank inside for your own message. Printed greetings can also
be added to some cards.
Any designs from the airbrushed images, digital collections or Flowers, fine art
pictures may be printed on Fine Art Card, although square cards are available just
as 4 Flower Collections at the moment. There is no minimum order quantity and any
mix of designs may be ordered.
Currently the Digital Collection and Flower picturescan be purchased from this site
as pictures, cards or prints, and please continue to visit the website as the full
range of images for cards will be online soon.

Greetings Cards, note cards and notelets can be ordered form this site by using the
shopping cart. Alternatively, you may phone, post or e-mail an order to me. Or you
can make an appointment to see my products at my base in High Brooms, which is the
north part of Tunbridge Wells. All cards are made to order so you will either need
to order cards in advance of an appointment to collect your order, or you may make
an appointment to view images but your cards will then need to be made and posted
or collected. Please allow enough time for cards to be made especially if you wish
to order Christmas Cards or Christmas notelets. Please see the page Note Cards &
Prints for ordering details
