This piece of art is an original and totally unique by Linda Schwerlzer. It is handmade,recycled paper with real flowers or leaves. All my verses are copyrighted and therefore protected under the US Government copyright laws. You could purchase 2 pieces with the same verse and have completely different pieces because, no 2 pieces of paper are identical and no 2 flowers or leaves are identical. The deckled edge of the paper is part of the charm of handmade paper. The paper with the verse, etc. is mounted on mat board. I identify the flowers on the back of the piece. It is signed and dated. The piece you are viewing:

"I love you more than sunrises or sunsets   More than a cool breeze when my skin is scorched   More than the scent of a lilac in full bloom    I love you more than these things which come & go    Because you...    You are a constant flow."

is an unframed 5X7, which comes with an envelope and may be given as a card. However, I do not recommend mailing the piece in the envelope provided. I would mail it in a larger envelope with protection. I've been making paper, pressing botanicals, writing my own verses and selling them at local shops, fairs or farmers markets since 1997. This is handmade, recycled paper and real flowers so, I recommend placing them away from the sunlight and florescent lighting.

Colors may vary from screen to screen.  The verse rests on a earthy yellow and is on dark sage green mount board.

You may choose First Class Mail shipping & handling at $2.50, which (in my experience) takes 2 to 10 business days, or Priority Mail for $5.00, which takes 2 to 3 business days. Deduct $2.00 off the shipping fee for each additional piece you order, shipped at the same time, to the same address. This means shipping on additional magnets will be free. And shipping on additional unframed 5X7's will be only 50 cents each.

  I accept Paypal and money orders and personal checks with a ten day hold on the check. I will refund your money or I will replace it with something similar within one week of it's shipping date if there is a problem. Because each piece is unique replacement requires you to view other pieces. This would be done via e-mail attachments or photographs by mail.
