Sleepless Dream recycled paper greeting cards are ONLY printed on 100% post consumer waste paper.*

I began making greeting cards when Sleepless in Spain. When I returned to CT I decided to try printing my collage images on card stock and selling them to local stores, friends and family. It has been since the very beginning that I have used 100% recycled paper and I always will. My mission as a greeting card artist is to create images that represent some of my favorite quotes and those of others, and to create art that others can easily share, I also try to represent the wishes of Nature and her Spirits, they'd like to be recognized, protected, honored, and cherished...

My artwork is a reflection of my own personal journey and visit here on Earth, said to be one of the most difficult lives one can experience. I am made sad by our civilization that as a whole is getting further and further away from our Mother Earth. I believe we all can make a difference, I know we can. I try to find ways to honor our earth, my choice to only used 100% post-consumer waste recycled paper is one small way I am trying to help. I haven't found a printer that can make affordable print runs for my cards, so I am still printing each one on my personal printer so that I don't have to compromise my 100% recycled paper content. My dream is that one day I will be able to find a way to mass produce my images without sacrificing their intent.
