Shop – Greeting Cards

In times where handwriting, and especially hand-written cards and letters, are being more and more neglected, I find it even more important to preserve this way of communication because in a personal way, it has a quite different meaning and is a contemporary document as well.

The Greeting Cards below are printed with ink on a lovely 300gr photo board – certified with the Blue Angel environmental label and come with high quality envelopes in a set of 2, 3, 4 or 5 with motives from my range of watercolour illustrations.

If you wish to purchase a set of Greeting Cards please contact me via art@carolahesse.org
Within Austria your shipping costs will be Euro 6,00.

Recipe for a Good Letter
by Amos Russel Wells

To write a good letter,
take a handful of grit,
A plenty of time and a little of wit.
Take patience to “set” it,
and stir it all up.
With the ladle of energy,
then fill a cup.
With kind thoughts
and helpful thoughts,
merry thoughts too.
With bright words,
and wise words,
and words strong and true.
Then seal with a love kiss,
and stamp it with care.
Direct to your friend’s heart,
and presto! ’tis there.
