The greeting cards are sold in sets of 4 with envelopes. Each card is unique, signed and numbered in a limited run of 80 prints. The cards are printed on a high quality French Paper Pop-Tone 110lb card stock in Wild Cherry.
The design began with an initial sketch to simplify shape and form, then it is scanned and converted to a digital vector illustration. The different color layers are transferred to linoleum blocks and hand carved. Each sheet of card stock is cut into blanks by hand. The ink are mixed and applied to the carved blocks with a brayer and the blanks are pressed using a baren. The process is then repeated for each color.
French Paper Co. in Niles Michigan manufactures organic, recycled, and post-consumer waste paper, and is powered by fully renewable hydroelectric generators installed in 1922. French Pop-Tone paper is uncoated, chlorine free, acid free and made from recycled paper.
