I LOVE these cards. This Dragon Girl is so adorable! Look at her cute little feet, and her innocent smile. Plus, she’s got a dragon! Hanging on to him like he’s a plushie, and he wraps his tail around her so gently and lovingly. Yeah I REALLY love these cards!
The cut these cards are printed from is unique and antique. I found it in a box of old printing cuts I acquired. The really cool thing, is that it is 2 pieces that are not original to each other. The dragon girl is a professionally made magnesium cut from the 1940s. During its life someone decided that she needed to be a 2 color cut and then HAND CARVED into a wooden block the sections of blue for the dragon’s body. The juxtaposition of the two cuts is so interesting.
Printed on vintage coated yellow card stock in purple and teal with 4 white envelopes. Available on Etsy!

hey, I am loving those Dragon Girl prints .. I have an 8yr girl (girlfriend of my boy) that would love some of those (I was going to use some as bookends, in the latest ‘Secret Belgian Binding’ book for her Christmas present).
Do you still have any available?
