Mary Azarian Greeting Cards
People still appreciate a good-looking note card on which to write personal messages. Here is a selection of images from A Farmer's Alphabet, sure to delight that lunatic fringe that still believes that a handwritten note, on good paper and contained in a classy envelope, says something about the sender and is more welcomed, absorbed, and remembered than an e-mail. Twelve cards, containing six images per box, printed in two colors, selected from among our favorites: Apple, Dog, Farm, Jump, Neighbor, and (well, who could resist it?) Underwear.

About the Author:
Mary Azarian grew up on a small farm in Virginia, where she had horses, rabbits and chickens. After graduating from Smith College, where she studied printmaking with Leonard Baskin, she married and moved to a farm in northern Vermont. There she taught for four years in one of the last one-room schoolhouses in the state. She has been a full-time printmaker since 1969. Her other books include The Tale of John Barleycorn, The Man Who Lived Alone, and the Caldecott Medal-winning Snowflake Bentley.

Stay in touch with country and city dwelling friends by writing them a note inside these rural-themed greeting cards by New England illustrator extraordinaire, Mary Azarian.A handwritten note, on good paper and contained in a classy envelope, says something about the sender and is more welcomed, absorbed, and remembered than an e-mail.Each box contains twelve cards and matching envelopes. The outside of each card features one of six farm scenes from Mary Azarians collection of prints, A Farmers Alphabet (each image is repeated twice). There are apples being picked from a tree, a dog asleep in a cozy armchair, kids jumping into a hay mound, neighbors chatting over a picket fence, long underwear worn in front of an old wood stove, and the scenic view of a farm amongst the hills.The inside of each card is blank and ready for your message.Mary Azarian created the prints for A Farmers Alphabet while a teacher in one of Vermonts last one-room schoolhouses. In the late 1970s, the state board of education commissioned her to create a rural alphabet, a series of bold red-and-black woodcut prints featuring the letters, A to Z, and depicting scenes from Vermont life.
