This card features an image by Melissa Swansey of Vineyard Haven, Massachusetts. Printed by Great Arrow Graphics in Buffalo, New York.
Designer Melissa Swansey Nicholson lives on Martha’s Vineyard with her husband and two “very wild” boys, ages two and four.
Both my husband and I grew up here and returned after college, got married and built a great little cottage. I have been drawing and doodling since, well, forever and got my BFA from Parsons School of Design in New York City. Because I married and had kids rather young I fell out of the creative world for too long. I started collecting vintage tablecloths and aprons after using them in my wedding and became a little obsessed, they are what has inspired my designs. Oliver Henry are my boys (Wyatt & William) middle names. I am thankful for websites like Etsy which give us stay at home mothers a chance to be creative and run a small business from home.

Experience Great Arrow silkscreened cards – the bold hues and velvety feel of ink printed by hand, layered one color at a time. In 1984, Alan Friedman and Donna Massimo began making silkscreened cards for holidays and every day in a small studio in Buffalo, New York. 35 years and 7000 cards later, the tradition continues with the help of a crew of talented local artists working with wonderful designers from around the world.
In a shop, a Great Arrow card is unmistakable… an oasis of brilliant, luscious color. The greetings are simple (sometimes punny) to inspire the sender to say what they feel. We purchase FSC certified papers, use recycled materials wherever possible and print with U.S. made inks. In the end, it's love that makes our cards something worth sending and keeping. A Great Arrow hand silkscreened card is a hug that fits in an envelope.
