Escargot Studio Henna Cards

July 15, 2009 // kristen // 4 replies

I’m loving the designs on these new cards by Escargot Studio. The Henna notecards are a contemporary take on traditional Indian henna patterns, and the bold, intricate patterns will be remembered long after the recipient first sees the card. Available in sage, fuchsia, and lime and printed on 100% recycled paper.

Liz Kalloch, a San Francisco based artist and designer, recently launched a line of greeting cards at her Etsy shop, Athena Dreams. The combination of Liz’s bold and colorful graphics, featuring layers of texture coupled with symbols and icons around the world, along with messages like, “those who bring sunshine to the lives of others cannot keep it from themselves,” and, “optimism is the the faith that leads to achievement,” are so uplifting. See Athena Dreams’ full line of greeting cards, as well as Liz’s mixed media art prints, right over here.
