‘The Pond’ is a wonderful colourful drawing all about the benefits of having a pond in your garden. It features two frogs peaking above the surface of the water; a super cute duckling; an elegant pink and white water lily; mayflies; and an iris. A body of water in the garden – no matter how small – is probably the best thing you can do for wildlife in your garden. Hannah used to ask her dad for one all the time when she was little and last year, she dug a tiny wildlife pond on a whim in her garden. They now have tadpoles, toads, newts, dragonflies, mayflies, pond skaters, water boatmen, snails, diving beetles and all sorts of other funny little wiggly things. And there are two chunky wood pigeons who regularly fall in while trying to take a bath.
The design is printed across the fold and wraps around the card. The cards are sent flat for display purposes for you to then fold to fit the envelope. It posts as a standard letter size. Each card comes with kraft envelope with a fabulous coral-coloured liner.
Size: 15xm x 30cm (or 15cm square when folded)
This card is one of a collection of cards that Hannah created called ‘A Garden for Wildlife…’ as a tribute to her parents who were both excellent gardeners and created little wildlife havens in their gardens. Every card sold helps to raise money for the ongoing work of her local Macmillan Centre where her mum was cared for for many years. These cards are designed, manufactured and packaged by hand in the UK. They are printed on FSC approved card stock sourced from sustainable mixed forests. The original drawings are done in pencil & watercolour. The designs are inspired by the rich variety of the British countryside. Hannah is passionate about helping people to feel connected with the fields, hedgerows and woodlands around them, as it’s only by loving and enjoying the countryside can we learn to care for it.
