Beautiful Illustrated Blank Greeting Cards for Spring & Summer | UK Artist Made
As the days grow longer and the colours of spring begin to bloom into summer, it's the perfect time to slow down and reconnect. If you love illustrated, picture-book style artwork, blank greeting cards offer a beautiful and personal way to stay in touch - whether you're writing to a friend, sending a thoughtful note, or simply treating yourself to a quiet, creative moment.
Artist-Made Cards, Designed and Printed in the UK
All of my cards are artist-made (by me!) and produced in the UK, designed and printed in my small studio in East Yorkshire. Each design begins as an original illustration, inspired by nature, folklore, and a hint of the whimsical, picture-book style that defines my work.
By carefully printing each card myself, I’m able to ensure that every detail and colour remains true to the original artwork, creating something truly special to send or keep.
Choose Your Perfect Finish
Each card is available in two carefully selected paper options:
Standard Cards
Printed on beautiful Marrutt 230gsm Matte paper, chosen for its smooth texture and the way it captures colours clearly and accurately.
Premium Cards
Printed on luxurious Marrutt 312gsm paper, offering a heavier weight and a slightly textured feel for a more elevated finish.
All cards come with a 110gsm recycled Kraft envelope, ready for gifting or sending.
