Small Greeting Cards ~ Vintage Japanese Woodblock

As the description says, these cards are hand cut and hand folded. The hand cutting process leads to some frayed edges (depicted in the attached pictures), and some minor mishaps in folding. While it is not made entirely clear in the images in the description, the secondary image shown is printed on the entire back of the cards, meaning that rather than the small, tasteful logos placed on most cards, you have a loud advertisement on the back of the card, making it a little less of a pleasant thing to, say, leave standing on a desk."OK," you may be saying, "but the description says hand cut and hand folded, and they show what image is on the back (even though they may not say that's what it is or how big), so why are you bringing these things up?" Because I want you, the prospective buyer, to be totally aware of them, and to be aware that even the printing (which is not mentioned in the description) is not of professional quality. This is standard inkjet printing. That was the clincher that left me feeling disappointed with these clearly home-made cards.You could do just as well to go to a local copy store and print your own cards (better, since you would have your choice of design, no logo on the back, choice of glossy versus matte, careful cutting to avoid frayed edges, and no shipping charge).If you want home-made cards but can't be bothered to make them yourself, go with these. If you want something a little more professional, give Zazzle or Cafe Press a try.
