Handmade Cards - Children

Handmade cards For and Featuring Children

In this lens I am displaying one range of our cards and prints which are available to purchase on eBid.net.
If you are interested in having a card designed for a special someone or for a particular occasion you are welcome to contact us to discuss your requirements.

Rates charged will vary, depending on whether you will require a verse or additional message included on the card.

The majority of cards specifically designed for individuals are subsequently put into general production but it is possible to have an exclusive design if you don't want to share with the rest of the World.

If it's for a particular occasion or event then please allow at least six weeks for the design to be finalised and delivered to you.

You can contact me through Squidoo or through eBid.net

Prints for Framing - a Christmas or Birthday gift perhaps ...

Any of the card designs can be produced as an A4 print for framing, all you have to do is ask :-)

Prints start at 1.49 GBP for Children's Colouring designs, full colour A4 prints start at 2.99 GBP.

Some of the designs are also available in A3 size, please ask for further details.

Tomorrow's Child

... also available as a children's colouring card.


Around this card there is a simple but thought provoking phrase.

Tomorrow is the child of today, born from the seed of yesterday.

It is available as a ready to send, blank inside for your own message, or a children's colouring card. The latter is available at the price of 0.45 GBP.

I have a series of cards featuring this style of child, all are inspired by my own chldren. More examples will be added in the next few days.


This card is hand finished with metallic inks and signed by the artist.

A Puppy and his Boy

This is a design I made years ago and originally I produced it as a 3D picture / soft bas relief using fabrics and pieces of straw hat.

Hand finished with metallic inks and signed by the artist.






I still have the original 3D pictures I produced, they're framed in something similar to shadow boxes but roughly 2 inches deep and the pictures are approximately 15 inches by 23 inches.

Even the cards (c A5 in size) look good framed.

His partner card is Girl on a Swing.

Girl on a Swing

Girl on a Swing is the partner card to Puppy and his Boy and also was originally produced as a 3D picture / soft bas relief.

These designs were produced when my littlest girl was just a very wee one and now she's in her mid thirties but I hope the designs are timeless.

Hand finished with metallic inks and signed by the artist.

Picking Flowers

Another card in the series showing images of small children.

Again, the original for this design and its partner were originally produced as soft bas relief / 3D pictures, framed deep behind glass. In exactly the same way as the Puppy and his Boy and the Girl on a Swing.

These collage 3 dimensional pictures are a lot of fun and not all that hard to create.

This series of cards is all hand finished with metallic inks and signed by the artist.

Gone Fishing

And here is her partner, the little boy is fishing, probably snoozing in the sunshine, while the fish in the pond is laughing, knowing he's in no danger at all.

As with the others in the series, this card is hand finished with metallic inks and signed by the artist.

Silhouette Blue

Silhouette Blue, a little girl reads to her cat in the garden.

Currently available in just the one colourway and hand finished with gel inks.

This card is signed by the artist and comes to you with a lavender coloured self-seal envelope, ready to send.

Children's colouring cards

... in various designs.

Here I'm showing Tiger, a children's colouring card.

This particular card was in fact designed by my son a number of years ago when he was about 12 years old and makes a perfect colouring card.

Unicorn - Children's Colouring Card

Any colouring cards I offer come with the same lavender coloured envelope as the full colour cards.

Please remember that all cards are available as A4 prints for framing and the colouring cards are no different.

Tomorrow's Child colouring card.

Another one for the children to colour as they like.

Exactly the same as the hand finished Tomorrow's Child card above, supplied with a lavender coloured self-seal envelope ready to colour the card and send.

The Smoke Dragon


I have a thing about dragons, this one started life as a doodle and just developed a character of his own.

He is available as a children's colouring card.

The Watergirl



This card is based on a photograph taken of one of my daughters.

The original photo was taken against a hazy sunset at the end of a beautiful Summer's day beside the Loch.

Hand finished and signed
