I was looking for a thoughtful note card but wanted to use my own words to express my thoughts. I found at Arbor Aria, there were truly wonderful gifts and cards left purposefully blank so my own words could be used. These cards are beautifully hand-painted watercolor cards. Each card is unique, and open for me to make a thoughtful note for my expression. The artwork on the card was special in itself, and then my words gave it the right meaning I wanted to deliver to the receiver.
I have often looked for just the right note card in the popular card shops, but I found there were really no special cards to wrap my own words into. However, at Arbor Aria I found card packs of note card limited editions for my most special occasional special card giving needs. I purchased card packs to always have something handy for these special need moments. I use a technique of card selection I call trusting the process, where I reach into my cards and use whatever card I draw. Somehow, this has always been just the right card.
I found great choices in the limited edition prints, but I selected a few of the original hand-painted cards for my most important needs.
These thoughtful note card are suitable for framing. In fact, as a gift I sent a gift-pack of beautiful hand-painted original cards to a friend expecting her to use the cards for her special needs. She framed them on her wall instead. Still, although not what I expected, this was the most perfect gift.
If you are looking for that special thoughtful greeting card to fit a special occasion, you will find that hand-painted cards just couldn't say more. Each card also comes with its own separate and special quote, which seems to also always be just right for the occasion.
