Note on Shipping:

Did you know that I only charge a flat rate for shipping for greeting cards, art prints and calendars regardless of how many you purchase?

You just pay for the biggest item in your cart and then you can add alllll the other cards, prints and calendars for no extra shipping!! I also don’t charge extra for Rural delivery (I got you country folk, I was raised in the wop wops 😊)

So, say you buy an A4 art print – within NZ shipping is $7.50 (this is what I get charged, no markup from me). Then you add a calendar, wait 2 calendars for both your sisters-in-law. Then 8 greeting cards and 3 more A4 art prints… you will still only pay $7.50 shipping.

I also have a free pickup option for my local peeps. Just select ‘Free Local Pickup’ from the shipping options in checkout and you won’t pay a thing for shipping. And let’s be honest, I usually hand deliver them if I am going past!

International folks

The shipping from NZ is really expensive for us (the downside of living on a beautiful island in the middle of nowhere). But same deal, you only pay one flat rate for the largest item. So, same price for 1 art print as it is for 10… or more! (I mean if you want to order 1500 art prints, I will be so frikken grateful for the order I am happy to shout you the extra shipping, even if you live in Antarctica!).

Packaging my items as beautifully and safely as I possibly can is one of my favorite things. I try to use as much recycled packaging as I can. However, I am not perfect, and am totally open to suggestions! I have an awesome record of items arriving perfectly. People always comment how beautiful their package was to open.

I even had an A3 print that went all the way to Italy and back (delivery address issue at the Italian end) and while the packaging was a little tatty, the art print inside was still perfect!!

Shipping Charges Discrepancy

Occasionally I have had an issue on third party sites overcharging the shipping. But I have worked out how to refund part of the shipping, so I just put that back through to the customer – even if it is only $2.80, I got you.

The other items on my website are not items I keep in stock in my office studio in Stoke, Nelson, NZ. They are printed on demand and shipped by my awesome collaboration partners from all over the world. I love print on demand, it means I can offer a huge range of high quality items with no wastage. Nothing is created until you order it, and then it is printed just for you. So the shipping rates are set by them and not something I have any control over.

Butterfly Art Print.

The yellow admiral is a butterfly native to Australia, New Zealand, Lord Howe Island, and Norfolk Islands. Māori call it kahukowhai, meaning “yellow cloak”. It belongs to the Nymphalidae family, Nymphalinae subfamily, and Nymphalini group.

This medium-sized butterfly has a variable wingspan of 48-50 mm in Tasmania and 48-55 mm in New Zealand. Its upper forewings are dark brown to black on the outer edges with three small white patches, a wide bright yellow bar, and dull red near the body. The rear wings are dull red with a black border and a row of black circles with light blue centers near the edge.The underwings differ significantly. The rear wing has various shades of brown with cryptic, irregular markings. The underside of the forewing has a blue eyespot on a black background, highlighted by yellow areas above and below.

Yellow admirals are relatively common throughout their range wherever their food plants, stinging nettles Urtica incisa and Urtica urens, occur. They prefer open country, wastelands, and gardens. They live up to 1000 m above sea level. This butterfly is a strong, fast flier. It can survive wind-blown travel from Australia to New Zealand across the Tasman Sea.
