Design this card$13.00$18.00

Tall green bamboo stands under snow while a small sparrow waits at its foot, from Kamisaka Sekka's Flowers of a Hundred Worlds, printed in Kyoto in 1909-10. The bamboo bends under the weight of winter but does not break, and the sparrow is waiting for spring. For someone going through a hard season.

Add four of your own photos and your own words; we print the card in the US and post it for you.
