A few words from our Maker - Leila Dearness
I was thrilled when Jo approached me to collaborate on an exclusive gift card design. Like Jo, I am constantly inspired by my surroundings, to design and produce work that reflects the spirit of our beautiful island home.
This design depicts the stunning views from Jo’s home and the joy and life that can be found in nature that envelops us here in Orkney -

I thought you might enjoy an insight into how our beautiful cards are made so I asked Leila about the process. She kindly took a video & set it to music ! This video shows our First Exclusive card being made.
Music: is 'The Locks of Rahan' written & performed by Elizabeth Duncan & accompanied by John Dearness.
