Sweet Jane



While there is a bit of annoying glare in the photo, these are hot of the press (er, wet off the Gocco?) and I couldn't wait to share them. This is the first in a series of Jane Austen cards I've been working on. The silhouette of Austen is from the first edition of her novel Mansfield Park. The quote featured is from a letter to her sister Cassandra--- and as a fellow cynic and perpetual crank, I've always gotten a kick out of it.

These cards will be available in my Etsy shop when the ink dries. Future cards will feature Austen's witty observations from each of her novels. Hope fellow Janeites enjoy!

{If you have a favorite Austen quote you'd like to see on a card, please email me!}
