A stunning card by Hannah Longmuir that folds out to reveal swallows flying low across a wheat field, a sight that fills your heart with easy summer joy. It is titled ‘Stay and Make My Heart Fly’ after the Proclaimer’s song. I don’t think that the Proclaimers were singing about swallows, but the lyrics made Hannah think of the bittersweet feelings of the end of summer when you know that it won’t be long until the swallows have to leave for the winter.

There are two folds on the card so it can fold down to a standard letter size for posting, and then the recipient can sit it on a mantelpiece or a shelf as the full size card.

The folded card is A6 size: 150mm x 105mm. The flat card is 150mm x 315mm.

The drawing is printed on a slightly textured, off-white card. The design is printed across the fold. Just fold it over to send it as a standard letter size. This card comes with a recycled brown envelope.

This card is blank inside so you can use it year-round for any occasion, or to write a note to a friend. It would be particularly lovely to send in the summer.

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.
