Timely Wishes With Timeless Artwork: Electronic Greetings And E-Gifts From Vintageworkshopcards.Com4 August 2006
Portland, OR (PRWEB) August 3, 2006 -- The Vintage Workshop Cards web site offers a unique, classy collection of electronic cards that combine retro artwork with fabric motifs and serious or sassy sentiments. With each e-card the sender can add an «e-gift,» a new concept in gift giving from the web. E-gifts are fun, printable artworks—from paper dolls to poems—that perfectly complement the occasion. «Sending an e-card is easy, fast, fun and convenient,» says Cheryl Edmonds, founder of the company. «Couple it with an e-gift and now you've got something of value for that special someone. In today's hectic world, you can be last-minute with e-cards!» There are cards for birthdays, anniversaries and seasonal holidays—and even a category called «Sew What's New» that includes visuals and sentiments for the sewing enthusiast who wants to send a special «I'm thinking about you» and honor the fine art of sewing. TheVintageWorkshopCards.com features 200 nifty nostalgic e-cards with up-to-date graphic design treatments that make the cards beautiful and one-of-a-kind. Most were created by artist/designer Alexis Wuyts; this young European put his unique touch on vintage photos, illustrations and fine art with great color and border enhancements. The often cheeky humor and touching sentiments were created by writer D'Anne Gilmore, a native Oregonian and longtime friend of the founder. Their artistic contributions along with the e-gifts make the site truly unique. «E-gifts are the new thing,» says Edmonds. «There's so much fun and endearing memorabilia from days gone by—like beloved recipes, sewing patterns, craft projects and paper dolls. For example, the site's 50 e-gifts include adorable doll dress patterns from the early 1900s.» These items have been carefully digitized and are ready for easy viewing and printing via the free software Adobe Acrobat Reader. (To find these dress patterns in the e-gift collection, click «FancyWork, Etc.») The Vintage Workshop Cards is a commercial partner of The Vintage Workshop, a popular crafting online resource for vintage images. The Vintage Workshop, and owner Amy Barickman, provided inspiration and vintage images and materials for the new e-cards and e-gifts. Both businesses' websites provide mutual links for easy access.
