I created the concept for a Hand Paint Card system which contains a Paint and Clean Wipe allowing people to make a hand or foot print on the inside of a beautiful greeting card. The cards are a bright and unique series that turns a card into a lovely keepsake. The cards have attractive designs celebrating areas of life throughout the year with a children’s theme in mind. The result is a Greeting Card where you get to 'Make Your Message a Memory'.
