patternbymel greetings cards

Size: 5 x 7 inches (127 x 178 mm),
Square (148 x 148 mm) or A6 (105 x 148 mm)

Paper: 350 gsm Recycled silk or Recycled uncoated

Delivered in: A5 cardboard box from FSC-certified sustainable paper and containing at least 70% recycled content. Paper liner and sticker seal are 100% recyclable

Design: No foiling, plastic or glitter finishes. My designs which do have a touch of bling use a foil effect that’s printed with ink.

Did you know? A real foil finish involves applying a thin metallic film (foil) using heat and pressure. Whilst this creates a luxurious, shiny finish the card becomes a mixed material, paper + metal, which means it can’t be recycled.

My cards plus packaging are 100% recyclable
