- 💌 Pool Colour Euro Flap Envelope Included: Paired with a coordinating recycled envelope and packaged in a cello sleeve — ready to give.
- 🖨️ Letterpress Printed: Each card is printed on a Golding Pearl platen press from the early 1900s — a slow, intentional process that creates rich, tactile results.
- ✂️ Hand-Cut: Trimmed on a vintage Chandler and Price Guillotine cutter, also from the early 1900s.

💚 Benefits
- 🎁 A gift in itself: Tactile, carefully made, and genuinely one of a kind — this card feels special before it's even opened.
- 🤍 Sustainably made without compromise: No electricity used in production, no trees cut down for paper. You can send your message knowing it was made with the planet in mind.
- 🖐️ Subtly unique every time: Because letterpress is a hands-on craft, slight variations in ink, impression, and position mean no two cards are exactly the same.
- 💬 Blank inside for a reason: Your words matter more than a pre-written sentiment. Write what you actually mean.
- 🛍️ Independent & California-made: Created by a California-based artist using time-honoured techniques and responsible materials — shopping local never looked this good.
