Hippie-Style Sweet Friend Greeting Card, Mixed Media

 What is it? An artistic greeting card

Handmade mixed media greeting card. This is a single 5x7" card and will come with its own decorative envelope.

Specifics:

This card has a very playful, Hippie love kind of feel. And it's actually made from gorgeous recycled wrapping paper that I have been holding onto for years. I cut out some shiny creme-colored paper and layered it on a green stamp die cut layer for the center piece, then surrounded that with torn vellum. I fussy cut some elements from the wrapping paper and adhered them on top of glossy black leaves. After cutting and layering the Sweet Friend greeting 4 times with black card stock, I coated it with a layer of Emerald Metallique Wax from Finnabair. Gem stones in clear, yellow, and light green finish off the design. There is light stamping on the interior, with a sentiment that reads: Thinking of you. And there is also space for writing your own message to the recipient.

Card comes with its own matching envelope. that is slightly larger than 5x7". Due to the nature of the layers, the thickness of the center, and the pearls, if you choose to mail this out to someone, I highly recommend putting it in a bubble mailer, otherwise the pearls could get broken in the post office rollers, and the card may get smashed. 

All items were adhered using a matte medium gel and Bearly Art Precision Craft Glue to assure that nothing comes apart. 

Artist Disclaimer:
One of a kind art. There is only one available. 

My prices may seem inconsistent, but every item is priced according to the amount of time I spend creating them as well as the supplies used. I handcraft nearly every piece that goes into my art. The resin pieces are the simplest things I create because the amazing moulds do most of the work for me. But other items found on each of my pieces is completely designed and meticulously put together by me. While there are a lot of fantastically beautiful options out there, I don't buy many pre-made embellishments because I want my art to be unique and entirely MY design. So if the prices seem higher on some pieces and lower on others, it has everything to do with the time spent creating each individual embellishment used on those pieces. I solemnly pour my heart and soul into everything I make. And I truly hope that shows in my attention to every single detail and quality of my products.
