Our exotic Greeting and Note Cards  are created and photographed by Sandra Buchholz of Elegant Insects to compliment our insect jewelry. The beautiful colors are a pleasure to look at, and the insects themselves are delicate and exotic.

All cards are standard size  5.5 x 4.25" and are printed on either high gloss or satin finish photo paper and come with a plain white envelope. They are blank on the inside, unless you ask us to add something, for which there is an extra charge of $2.00 per card.

Cards are $4.50 for a single card,  $15.00 for a set of four, and they can be mixed.

The following cards are original abstract and deco designs of insects. There are also some lovely designs of exotic and colorful patterns which are not insects, and images of original stained glass panels.
