Artist Jim Brandenburg is famous for his stunning photographs that capture the beauty and magic of the natural world. He is one of the premier wildlife photographers in the world, and a dedicated environmentalist. He has won numerous international awards for his work.

Jim derives intense satisfaction from his life-long commitment to explore and understand the wilderness. Sharing his love for the natural world and telling its stories are what motivates him during his long treks in the wilderness.

We sometimes forget why touching is so important, and we forget that those we love just might need to feel us. Debossed  by letter press printing in complimentary brown foil, the message, quoting Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, reads:

Ah, how good it feels:
the hand of an old friend.

Each 5 by 7 inch card is printed on a textured 100% recycled paper with soy based inks, and is accompanied by an envelope for mailing.

The Wonder Of It All (Hand-Pressed Token)

More Pocket Tokens

More Amulets

At a carnival in the 1950s, I made one of these wonderful tokens on a very special mechanical device. After thinking for what seemed to be ages of just the right sentiment, I impressed my name. 40 years later, my dear friend, Juliana and I found ourselves high atop a New York City landmark, and behold another of the very special machines!

This time, at Juliana's urging, we each made one just like the one in the illustration above, with the sentiment:

THE WONDER OF IT ALL

These machines are no longer manufactured, but you can find them few and far between at old-time amusement parks and other special places.

We found a wonderful new buddy, Tom, who has a machine of his own and he was kind enough to make these one at a time so we could offer them to SilverCrow's customers. He not only made them one at a time - and each letter had to be selected and then individually impressed manually on to each token!

If you can behold each day with wonder and treasure each of your friends as I do Juliana, then you'll need one of these for each of you. Add a simple ball chain key chain or necklace to compliment that old-fashioned feeling.

Each silvery token measures about 1-1/4 inch in diameter and features a four-leaf clover in the center, surrounded by the words:

GOOD LUCK

Rebecca Pavlenko captures the peace and serenity of Japanese gardens and the serene simplicity of Japanese artifacts in her beautiful, hand-painted Polaroid transfer photographs. Contemplative quotations from great spiritual tinkers complete all of her truly elegant cards.

Artfully elegant ink sticks so elegantly represent the Japanese proverb:

Fall down seven times,
stand up eight.

And, on the inside:

Some times
are harder
than other times.

I'm here for you
whenever you need me.

This 5 by 7 inch card is printed with soy based inks on beautiful, textured uncoated 100% recycled paper with 15% post-consumer waste that rivals with fine Italian paper. Envelopes are deckled.

We just love letterpress cards and letters. The elegance of vintage stationery is all but forgotten. We're simply delighted that some smaller companies are offering the same high-quality papers and designs with a modern touch - so we can offer them to you!

The vintage illustration of a feather, appearing almost silken enough to touch and the old-time delicate font of the verse accent the richly textured paper. And, of course, because it is letterpress, you can feel the letters with your fingers.

The sentiment is one we should practice ourselves as well as wishing for others:

May your heart be
always lighter than a feather

The 3-1/4 by 5-1/4 inch size is just what you need for those short messages and quick thank you notes.

Hand-Painted Tin Heart Ornament

Heart and Hands Tin Ornament

This charming tin ornament is reminiscent of the Irish claddagh. The symbol of heart and hands is seen in many cultures - representing friendship and love. The cross atop the heart represents faith.

Each of our ornaments is hand formed and painted in the traditional manner by Mexican artisans. So each is absolutely unique - a work of art, made with care. The design is much like that of a heart milagro. Even though this is an ornament meant for a tree, we think it is lovely placed on a wall with a simple nail to hold it.

ONE TOO. WE HAD A MOON OVER
BACKYARD, AND MY BEST FRIEND
ART HAD MOONLIGHT IN HIS BEDROOM
FROM HIS MOON
WHEN WE VISITED OUR RELATIVES
IN CHICAGO, I WAS NOT SURPRISED
TO DISCOVER THEIR MOON.
THEN ONE NIGHT, AS WE RETURNED

HER MOON WAS OUR MOON
THERE WAS JUST ONE MOON !

Hand-Made Magic Friends Pendant

Designed and handmade by Athena Paper Art our enchanting pendant features a delightful group of Magic Friends. We can only guess what ornery plans are in the making by this group of girls. We're absolutely sure that it will engender magical remarks for the wearer at Hallowe'en (or any other time of year!). Consider wearing it on our Black Organza Necklace or Ball Chain Necklace.

Small Phone & Address Book

Our little Phone and Address Book is just 2-3/4 inches! It is just darling when you cover it a small piece of hand made paper and stamp it or attach a small embellishment.

Make several as party favors. Guests will love to receive such a practical gift: so tiny that it will fit in almost any handbag. These are small enough to fit in a wallet, so decorate one for your favorite male friend as well!

Fantastic Fridge Magnet - Born to Be Wildqqq

Close-Up

 

Born to Be Wild Magnet

Not quite as risqué as the other girls gone wild, our 4-1/2 girlfriends are splashing up a storm in the seaside surf! Whether you alone are the wild one, or your friend, or, indeed, the entire gang, you'll surely smile and wile away the hours dreaming of the beach with this little magnet in view!

Anne Taintor's magnets are often tongue-in-cheek funny, but we think this one is just fun and certainly kitschy. The artist combines vintage images and tongue-in-cheek messages in a collage style that seems retro and modern at the same time.

This 2 by 2 inch reads:

Let's Do Lunch Teapot Greeting Card

So many traditions we've lost - like tea & crumpets, bread-and-butter notes, etc. But, even though we know there's no such thing as a free lunch, it's still a pleasure to share fantasies and feasts with friends! So, why not invite your circle of friends for a luncheon in the old-fashioned manner, with a note.

Our delightful teapot and roses card reads on its cover:

We must have hope, faith and lunch together some day soon!

Add the details of time, place and date inside for a special memory for you and your friends.
