At Screech Owl Design, we believe that the romance and charm of a handwritten note is priceless. Each note is a diminutive work of art that can make a personal journey from one friend to another. We are delighted to play a small part in these gestures of community and acts of thoughfulness and sharing. We offer imaginative and beautifully printed note cards, postcards, and box sets for your various correspondence needs. All of our hand-drawn and original images are created and rendered by Jacqueline Schmidt, who is continually inspired by a hand written note.
Bird on a chair? Our images grow from an inspiration derived in nature. Our colorful cards playfully bring nature into contact with our quirky yet urbane domesticity. We enjoy cobbling these images together in a humorous and harmonious habitat where wildlife and wing chairs go hand in hand. At Screech Owl Design, we believe personal connection should not come at the expense of environmental responsibility. We print all of our cards on 100% post-consumer recycled paper or tree free 100% cotton paper recovered from scraps. Because of developments in processing recycled materials, we are able to offer eco-friendly products that look and feel as luxurious as any non-recycled paper.
