hand made greeting cards - calligraphy from the hermitage

Information

Greetings Cards

· Cards are available in 2 sizes - A6 standard (A5 folded), or A5 presentation (A4 folded). Both sizes fall within the Royal mail “letter” postage band

· Cards are printed on heavyweight 280 - 330gsm fine card especially selected to complement the design.

· Hand colouring, finishing & quality control checks for each individual card.

· 120 - 135gsm luxury white envelopes are provided with all cards.

· Cards are presented individually cello-wrapped.

Cardfold

· Christmas cards and special selection designs are also available in A6 cardfold format - once folded up like a notelet, the layout of these is identical to the greeting cards, and you can use the blank reverse page for longer messages.

· Cardfolds are printed on 160gsm smooth A4 ‘text & graphics’ card, which is a pure white, lightweight board, of a much higher quality & rigidity than the paper used for most notelets.

· Cardfolds are flexible enough to pass easily through most domestic inkjet printers - so you can use the reverse for a newsletter, write on it by hand, or just leave it blank & use the folded cardfold as a regular card.

· Cardfolds are scored, but sent flat in a boarded envelope. Cardfold special collections are sent scored & flat in a transparent A4 presentation wallet.

· 120 - 135gsm luxury white envelopes are provided with all cardfolds

Personalisation

· If you order any 16 cards of the same design before the end of October 2009 you can choose to have them personalised - Free for Christmas! - just follow the star!
