The two dark russet cards are 5.5&quot; x 4.25&quot; and have an inner liner of writing paper. Two more are 6&quot; x 4.25&quot; on a faintly speckled natural card, and one 6&quot; x 4.5&quot; card is on linen-finish pale yellow stock. Please specify type when ordering. All cards come with matching or coordinated envelopes.<br /><br />The usual color caveats appy. These getgel patterns are predominantly teal, green and russet brown. Five cards made from the same paper will have similar designs, but variations in the proportion of the colors showing. <br /><br />Cards ships in a clear cellophane sleave and a padded mailing envelope.<br /> http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=21627288 Wed, 04 Nov 2009 15:42:34 -0500 4.00 http://ny-image1.etsy.com/il_155x125.59244849.jpg new 5 http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=24191251 <img src="http://ny-image1.etsy.com/il_155x125.67849569.jpg" /><br /> $3.00<br /> This set of cards features bright summer colors on a pure white card stock.
