FATHER'S DAY CARDS

An estimated $400 million was spent on 10 million unwanted gifts last Christmas in Australia, many of which were discarded and likely ended up in landfill.

Gift cards endure as a great solution. When you know your friend or family member loves nature, the garden, craft, and the outdoors, FORA can help you alleviate that "did I get the right present" anxiety and quell that Gift Card buying guilt.

Sustainability aside, some of us are just are not that organised so a Fora Gift Card will make a handy last-minute digital gift. 

This beautiful design is thanks to Basia Stryjecka, of Little Valley Studio. Originally from a small town in Poland, Basia now calls Michigan in the US her home. Often inspired by the beauty of nature, she creates pieces that bring a sense of calm and wonderment to our everyday lives. With a strong interest in color, composition, and texture she loves to integrate her knowledge of design into her abstract works. Watercolor is Basia's preferred medium, allowing the pigment to guide her brush in creating calming yet playful paintings

Do you identify with Surfing Sloth's whimsical wombat, perhaps, a coffee-clutching fox or other cute critters such as this hermit rabbit campervanning alone (well, not if you count the plant in the window), perhaps unaware that the Queensland border has opened and he can finally leave Mullumbimby.

Luka Va (aka Surfing Sloth) grew up with northern hemisphere often cold environment and is now trying to get her head around the cheerful outdoorsy sunny Aussie beach culture. This card is a combination of both feelings.

Fox on the Run

Hipster Safety Dance

The Thinker

The Raccoon on the Hill

Do you identify with Surfing Sloth's whimsical wombat, perhaps, a coffee-clutching fox or other cute critters such as this lonely raccoon pondering his existence on the top of a mountain? Perhaps the sunglasses are hiding some tears?

Do you identify with Surfing Sloth's whimsical wombat, perhaps, a coffee-clutching fox or other cute critters such as these cats living out their carefree summer holiday romance?

For many, Christmas is snow, dark nights, staying home by the fireplace, cuddling under blankets, and drinking mulled wine. Australians, on the other hand, have fun by the beach, by camping and getting sunburnt instead. OK, the latter is untrue, they are sun smart people. But Christmas in Australia IS a completely different feeling. 

Luka Va (aka Surfing Sloth) grew up with calm snowy Christmas and is now trying to get her head around the cheerful outdoorsy sunny Aussie beach Christmas. This card is a combination of both feelings. 

A greeting card perfect for Christmas or for well wishes to Covid honeymoon campers.
