Festive And Earth Friendly Holiday Greeting Cards

Almost a couple of week ago, I shared beautiful holiday greeting cards with you all that are perfect to send to your friends and families with a hand-written note. If you still have a few more people on your 'send-a-holiday-card' list then you are going to love these stunning cards by Arrowyn Craban Lauer. The folk art inspired designs are just the right amount of festive to send holiday greetings this year. They are printed on wood or eco-friendly paper, and come wrapped in biodegradable plastic along with a recycled envelope. Buy them as a set or individually from Little Gold Fox Designs.

Holiday Pop-Up Cards Your Friends Will Love

 

Ever since I was a little girl, I have loved pop-up cards. Besides the intricate papercut artwork, the cards have a surprise element for the receiver. As soon as you open a card, a 3D image pops up on top of the card that instantly brings a cheer in your day. Massachusetts based brand Love Pop creates the sweetest pop-up cards for all kinds of occasions. Their Christmas series cards include festive design s including santa in sleigh, nutcracker, reindeer, holiday snowy owl and many more! Take a look at more designs in their online store.

Statement Jewelry Pieces by Rosita Bonita

Rosita Bonita is a jewelry brand founded by designer Rowenna Harrison in 2010. The handcrafted pieces are made from leather and embossed with designs of owls, fans, lanterns and birds in elegant, shiny gold. The inspiration for the jewelry comes from the artist's glamorous fantasies of past times and faraway lands, and icons of folklore, myth & legend. The hand dyed jewelry pieces in red, blue and black will make a great statement piece for your next outfit.

The shown owl pieces from Damn Fine collection are inspired by Twin Peaks. "Two halves of a broken heart, held together yet kept apart, the owls (are not what they seem), a blue rose (a message from Gordon's mother's sister's girl), & the menacing, enveloping fire."
