Cardinal: a snowy pine holiday card

A red cardinal on a snowy pine branch painted loosely in gouache, with the greeting in a light italic across the pale winter sky.

From $2 a card with postage included. The price falls to $1.50 a card on 50 or more.

About this design

A red cardinal sits on a snowy pine branch at the left of this card, painted in loose, confident gouache strokes against a pale sky of cream and gray. Pinecones hang beside him and the branch carries a cap of snow. Season’s Greetings runs to the right in a light italic.

The red is the only bright color on the card, which makes it easy to spot in a stack of mail. It names no holiday, so it works for neighbors, coworkers and relatives alike. The small line and your names can be changed, and a short note on the back about the year you shared fits well.

On the back

Your message prints on the left of the back in a handwriting-style font, up to 700 characters on a 4x6 card and 1,400 on a 6x9. We print the recipient’s address and the postage on the right, so there is nothing to address, fold or stick.

Season’s greetings! A cardinal has been visiting our fence all week and it made us think of you. Wishing you peace and a warm winter. Stop by and see the birds when you can.A message idea, signed The Okafor Family
