Based in Canberra, Puddleduck Designs offer a range of original, hand made greeting cards with something for everyone. Ideal to send to family and friends for birthdays, anniversaries, weddings, congratulations, new baby or just to say thank you or I love you! The cards are left blank for personal messages as I don't like to limit the occasions for which they can be used. Each card comes with an envelope in a cellophane bag.

It is always difficult to find that special card so if you don't find what you are looking for or would like a design to be altered to suit your special needs please feel free to contact me at tamara@puddleduckdesigns.com

I also take commissions for special personal events and for businesses to send to valued customers or clients.

No two cards will be identical as each card is individually hand made and a high standard is always guaranteed. Colour on screen may vary slightly from actual card colour.

For a unique card which will be something special for that special person to remember and treasure, please email your order to tamara@puddleduckdesigns.com or visit my shop on Etsy. If you are a retailer interested in selling my cards, please feel free to contact me for wholesale prices.

All items are handmade in Canberra. My guiding principles are social harmony and environmental responsibility. It is part of my business ethos to promote low impact environmentally friendly local production. The majority of my products are made incorporating upcycled, recycled or reclaimed materials. Wherever possible additional materials are 100 percent natural, produced sustainably and sourced locally. All products are created using green energy through solar power.

We reuse shipping materials whenever possible so the envelope that arrives may be worn but rest assured that your purchase has been handled with the utmost care.

Environmental benefits of using recycled materials

The majority of my products are made incorporating upcycled or reclaimed materials. Wherever possible additional production materials are 100 percent natural, produced sustainably and sourced locally. Every year tons and tons of perfectly good fabric ends up in landfill.

Each time you purchase an item made from recycled materials, rather than buying one made from new materials, you reduce greenhouse gas emissions, save water, reduce pollution, decrease land clearing, and keep 'stuff' out of landfill.  So by 'closing the loop' through purchasing products made partially or wholly from reclaimed materials, we can ensure that the market for these materials remains strong and recycling schemes flourish.

Earth Charter Endorsement

I endorse the mission of the Earth Charter Initiative which is to promote the transition to sustainable ways of living and a global society founded on a shared ethical framework that includes respect and care for the community of life, ecological integrity, universal human rights, respect for diversity, economic justice, democracy, and a culture of peace.
