Greeting card of handmade paper with cute little birdie

Description

This adorable card is made of my own handmade paper. It's a pretty shade of blue with a sweet little bird design. The bird is cut out of tissue paper and added to the wet paper so that when it dries it becomes part of the handmade paper! The inside of the card is blank with the addition of a smoother paper (in a natural tone) to make writing a little easier. The rest of the card CAN be written on, but ballpoint pen is suggested, as other inks may 'bleed' a little.
This card also comes with a light beige handmade envelope. Since the envelope is also handmade, there is no adhesive for sealing, so a small blue and lavender gigham 'sticker' is included.
The card measures roughly 4.25 x 5.75 inches; and, the envelope measures about 4.5 x 6.25
Making paper is so much fun in itself, but this card is a lovely way to put that paper to good use!

(This paper was made using an additive to neutralize the pulp and make it 'acid-free'.)
