5 Cards for Family 


Giving cards for family is a thoughtful way to show that you care about your loved ones. Cards for family are cards they will treasure and hold onto for years to come. With my cyanotype cards they have a blank interior making them perfect to write a personalized message for any occasion. You can give these cards for family or to friends. These minimalist floral cards are perfect for birthdays, weddings, anniversaries, sympathy cards, get well cards and more! 



There’s something special about receiving a card in the mail that shows that the person really went the extra mile in taking the time to choose the right card, write a thoughtful message and send it off to be mailed. I’m sure you can think of a few people in your life that could really appreciate receiving a card to show that you are thinking of them. Maybe a grandparent? A friend who lives out of town or someone special who is going through a hard time. 




My fine art cards for family are designed to be collected and treasured. After the occasion has passed the card can be cut or folded and put in a frame where the artwork on the front of the card can be displayed and cherished as a personal keepsake. 


About the Card Designs 

These cards are created by me with the cyanotype process. The cyanotype process is a chemical process that involves the sunlight to create a blue pigment. After the prints were created I scanned and edited the designs so they could be printed on cards.

How to Make Cyanotypes

You might be asking how to make cyanotypes? Let me tell you first what a cyanotype is...Cyanotypes are an old photography/printmaking process that involves creating a blueprint with exposure from the sun or UV light. The process uses two chemicals: ferric ammonium citrate and potassium ferricyanide. The process was discovered in 1842. Read on to learn from artist Jackie Partridge as she reviews the process of how to make cyanotypes!

How to Make Cyanotypes:

  1. Mix the chemical solution in the dark by mixing half and half of each chemical

  2. Apply the chemical solution with a brush/sponge to the paper or fabric (thin and even coat)

  3. Let the paper dry for a few hours in the dark

  4. Store paper somewhere the light can’t get it

  5. Fill a container of water to rinse the prints 

  6. Lay your coated paper in the sun and add your botanicals on top - can add a sheet of glass or plexiglass to keep the plants secure

  7. Set a timer and test your exposure times between 3-30min. (3min if it is full and direct sun)

  8. Rinse the paper in the water and let the paper dry (Make sure all yellow residue is off)
