This card features one of my mounted photographic prints.
About the photo: Cherry blossom is of huge symbolic importance all over the Far East; the Japan Meteorological Agency predicts exact blossom bloom dates every year! Although cherry blossom is more commonly associated with Japan, this vintage postage stamp - shot in close-up - is actually Korean. The text underneath has been written on my 1930s typewriter. The 2nd thumbnail picture gives an accurate representation of the photo's colours and tones.
About the card: The 5” square photo has been printed on FujiFilm Crystal Archive paper. This means it’s suitable for framing and is guaranteed fade-resistant. Because it’s matt, it’s also non-reflective, and stands firm in the face of finger marks!
The print has been mounted on pH neutral, 100% recycled manila card - a lovely sturdy board with a light brown tone and slightly ‘hairy’ feel.
The card is left blank inside for your own message. On the back, you’ll find three swallows in swooping flight, rubber stamped in metallic copper ink.
The finished card measures 5.5” square and comes complete with a 75% recycled crisp ivory envelope. The whole caboodle is tucked into its own glassine paper bag, which is biodegradable and 100% photo-safe. Hoorah!
