It comes with a brown kraft envelope and works for a birthday, a thank you or a note to a friend.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWe stock it because swallows have long been a sign of return and of summer on its way, which makes it a lovely card to send to someone far from home.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCaring for Letterpress\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eStore the card flat so the pressed image keeps its crispness, and keep it in its envelope to protect it from marks.
