This shop only sells in Great Britain. Open up to Christmas and over the holidays. Use the Contact button to request a post upgrade if you want Next Day Delivery. I print cards onto a sustainable English acid free, archival watercolour paper, prepared for digital print on both sides, so I can print a custom greeting inside; although cards are blank inside unless you request printed text inside. They are packed in compostable clear bags. Prints are on digital fine art papers. I specialise in hand sewing silk and natural fibres for apparel. I often re-use packaging to send you your orders.
If you want a product which is listed as unavailable or sold out, or you want to order more cards or prints than are listed in stock, please click on Contact above this announcement to send me a message and I will let you know if it is still in stock and/or if I can make more. I can usually make more cards quickly, up to 20 in a few days. For larger quantities I will let you know how soon I can make them for you.
Please contact me if you want a postage upgrade or if you need products sent quickly.
I hand painted some scraps of cartridge paper and made up a different Butterfly to draw with colour pencils on each colour. I had just 5 mount cards left in stock. So I used those to mount the cards with archival tape and found some small envelopes that just fit this size of card. These are original works of art that can also be sent as a card/present. They are mounted and ready to frame. I will not make any printed versions of these cards, so they will be unique card pictures, but I reserve the right to use the images for other creative uses in future.

Full description
Each Butterfly mini picture is hand drawn with pencil onto paper I painted by hand, then hung with archival tape inside aperture mount cards, with the inner centre fold sealed with archival tape. Cards are offered for £75 each or £300 for the set of 5 mounted picture cards.
These Butterfly art cards were selected by Ashford Visual Artists for the non-selling exhibition Within the Limitations, funded by Tesco, 8 to 10 March 2024 at Tesco, Ashford, Kent. Several hundred artworks were on show in used clear CD cases, leftovers from art installations by artist Lorrain Mailer in which she used CDs to create her works.
A card and present all in one. If you look closely at the first photo of the Pink Butterfly picture standing up as a card you will see the lightly grained texture of the card and slight indent around the picture that frames it.
Gender neutral gift, or gift for mother, father, art collector, friend or lover.
The butterflies are drawn from my imagination; they are not based on real butterflies.
Each card is hand signed on the back by me, the artist.
Each picture/card is blank inside and is packaged with a white diamond flap paper envelope and wrapped in a clear compostable bag.
The folded size of each picture/card is approximately 92 x 118 mm.
Envelope size 95 x 122 mm, 100 gsm
No printed cards, only these 5 original artworks in aperture cards.
