Hi there! Exciting news; I designed some greeting cards :)
As of now, there are only two design options but I hope to make more in the future! Each card measures 4.13" x 5.83", is created out of sustainably sourced paper and comes with a white envelope matching in size.
Below, I'll detail out each design option, if you'd like to learn more!
HEALING IS BORING:
This is actually based on my first zine I've ever made (which you can find here) which I wrote about how I dealt with the emotions of being hit by a bus. Obviously, shrinking 8 pages of words into a single paragraph is hard but I tried my best to still capture the sentiments of the zine into this greeting card.
I THINK YOU ARE NICE & STRONG & SMART & COOL & TOUGH:
The origin of this design comes from a sadly hopeful doodle on an index card from the world's most boring office. Some, tiny, desperately optimistic part of myself was motivated to create a speck of positivity for another (severely depressed in my receptionist role) part of myself. Cause I needed to hear that I was nice and strong and smart and cool and tough, since I did NOT feel that way during that part of my life. So I recreated this little doodle, years later, to hopefully help other people communicate this message to their friends and make folks feel more worthwhile.
The first form of the doodle started out self addressed but to make it more widely applicable, I took out the self addressed beginning and added in the words "i think". This way, the illustration feels more intentional and personal if its ever given as a gift, and also if the recipient is a reluctant compliment receiver, the giver can say "well that'S MY OPINION!!!!" and the recipient will be unable to push back.
