Water vole Christmas card

The hand-drawn water vole design coupled with bold pops of festive watercolour (in this case, Christmas cookies and milk, with a sprig of holly) is guaranteed to capture the hearts of your loved ones.

The animal art Christmas greeting card is perfect for those who embrace the unconventional and wish to add a touch of fun to their Christmas greetings this year. Whether you're sending holiday cheer to fellow wildlife enthusiasts or simply looking to surprise someone with a truly exceptional card, the Wild Lines vole Christmas card might just be the perfect choice.

When water voles aren’t sneaking Santa’s cookies, they can be found along river banks eating 80 percent of their body weight in grass stalks and reeds every day.

Water voles suffered huge declines in the 1990s, when the UK population dropped by an astonishing 90 percent - largely due to the spread of American mink. Mink were brought to the UK and bred for their fur, but several escaped the farms and quickly established in the countryside.

PTES has been involved in water vole conservation for decades and in 2015, launched the National Water Vole Monitoring Programme. They have worked out how best to help water voles, and now survey and monitor populations with the help of volunteers.

The Christmas card is as eco friendly as possible; it is made using recycled board and packaged with a recycled envelope. We can send the card naked or in a compostable sleeve - the choice is yours.

Printed by a specialist company in the UK, the print quality is brilliant and the card durable. I am always delighted to hear from customers (and card recipients!) who choose to frame their greeting cards and hang them on their walls!
