General Information about John's Banff and Jasper
Notecards
More about the
Notecards:
Each notecard has one small subtle line of
writing on the front, directly below the picture. A typical line is
"Black Bear in Dandelions, Banff National Park."
The back of the greeting cards features
a longer write-up
about John:
"I feel fortunate to live in
the Canadian Rockies and share my passion for the outdoors through
photography. 'Wilderness Moments' introduces you to some of my
favourite places and memories, capturing the magic of these
mountains on film. I hope you enjoy them as much as I enjoy
hiking, backpacking and exploring in search of more!"
Each notecard is made from 100% recycled glossy
cover stock paper, making it durable, tough and thick; yet leaving it
shiny and smooth, displaying the photographs beautifully with vibrant,
rich colours. Each actual image on the card has an added layer
of varnish to help reproduce these vivid colours.
The notecards are professionally printed in
Calgary, Alberta. The concept and design
was prepared by Tim Nokes Design of Canmore, Alberta, while all
additional layout and concept work was by Richard Maruk of
Ivy Design in Calgary, the same designer of John's
photo coffee table books.
| Note: the colour of the border of the cards was
difficult to reproduce on-screen and is not as 'gold' as it
appears online. It is a natural earthy tan colour with a
hint of green/gold. |
Is there a
money-back refund or guarantee for the notecards or for damaged cards?
Yes, there is a money-back guarantee on
all orders and on all cards damaged in shipping. Money will be
returned or cards will be replaced free of charge once the original cards are returned
(at no charge to you).
In eight years of doing business
online and in retail stores across Alberta, we are proud to say that we have yet to have had a
single card returned for any reason!
Will there be more
Banff and Jasper notecards of wildlife and nature?
Yes, new greeting cards are added every
few years. The most recent additions were two new cards in December
2007.
