Time For Card Sharing
Having recently put up a new boxed set of Papaver, and becoming a bit more interested in doing more cards, I thought I’d go back over my other boxed sets and start sharing them on occasion. Some will probably be discontinued soon, especially if I never sold a box. I’ll just go through them in alphabetical order. Just because.
This particular box will, I’m fairly sure, be one I discontinue. I think maybe it’s time to do a new water drop box. Time will tell. The amazing thing, at least to me, is that the oldest image here was made in 2015. Where has the time gone?!

Card Collection Updates
While I’ve certainly taken a large number of flora photographs, it’s been quite some time since I’ve printed new cards or put together a card collection. Recently, though, I’ve been looking at some past boxes and I’m thinking some should be retired: I’ve sold very few in the past few years (really since Covid struck). I think it’s time to put new boxes together.
Today I did just that … well, one box, anyway. Some of the images are from 2026, but I have to admit some are older. But they all work and there you go. (And yes, I had to update this as there are MORE that are from earlier: I initially wrote that just two were not from 2026.)
Let me introduce you to the 2026 Papaver cards. These particular images are from the smallest box size (5.5 x 4.25) and are $26 plus tax (unless you are from out of state) per box. (I have yet to raise prices, but that may have to change, considering the cost of paper these days.)
New Cards
It’s been quite some time since I’ve put together a card collection, but I do have one new one now and I’m planning on doing more.
Have a look at the Purple Lupine collection!
This Year’s Christmas Card
So here you have our 2023 Christmas card. Can you figure out who did what? (Easy-peasy!)
Our Annual Tradition
Since 2018 Dan and I have sent out Christmas cards that include an image from each of us. I set it all up, and when I print I do half of the cards with his image on the front and half with mine (he insisted!). I absolutely love putting these together. I’ll bet you can guess who did which image.
Have you sent out your cards yet?
(Excuse the random lines around the cards … I guess I cropped things poorly from Lightroom and I’m feeling somewhat lazy at the moment so I don’t know when I’ll redo things!)

2019
(When printing this card one image has to be upside down in order for them to present correctly, but I figured I’d turn them both right side up so you can see them.)

STAY TUNED!
Silicon Valley Open Studios
It’s that time again … the Silicon Valley Open Studios begin. Our area is having them on May 20 and 21, 11:00 AM to 5:00 PM. If you are interested in dropping by to see our work, drop me a message with your email address and I will share our home address with you.
Last year was our first time doing this, and while we were still dealing with Covid, we did get some visitors and had a lovely time. Yes, we are still dealing with Covid, but it’s not the same this year and we are much more comfortable having the open house.
Here is my page at SVOS, and click here to see Dan’s.
I’ll have limited edition prints available (some matted and framed in custom frames, some matted only, and some just plain old prints), open edition prints in mats as well as in non-custom frames, and of course some cards. If you really want a particular boxed card set, though, please let me know in advance and I’ll make sure to have them available.
Hope to see some of you here.
A few of the prints I’ll have here (if you clicked through to SVOS this is what you’ll see):
But there will be many more!
