The Alchemists Vessel on Etsy will remain open until the items have expired.  We hope you will take a moment to see what is on our shelves.

Original Art Holiday Reindeer Greeting Card in Colored Pencil


This reindeer may not be able to fly, but he will surely try if you ask him.  The inside is empty for your own personal message, and with some added glitter for sparkly fun.

From my late mother's sketch collections, I hand color each card, so you will not get a print, but an original piece of art, suitable for framing. (Frame not included.)

This card was created on white heavyweight textured premium cardstock with matte coating on both sides and measures 5" x 5" square.

I offer free shipping on my individual cards.
