Description
This charming ‘Flipping Around’ greeting card features a delightful illustration of two playful dolphins, from the talented Hannah Dale of Wrendale Designs.
The central image showcases the graceful, fluid movements of the dolphins as they frolic in the ocean. The artist’s skilled use of watercolour techniques lends a soft, organic quality to the design, capturing the gentle curves and contours of the marine creatures’ forms.
The dolphins are depicted in shades of grey and blue, their sleek bodies accentuated by the abstract splatters and drips of colour that surround them. This interplay of realistic detail and abstract expressiveness creates a sense of movement and energy, drawing the viewer into the playful underwater scene.
The card’s simple, minimalist layout allows the beautiful illustration to take centre stage, making it a versatile choice for a variety of occasions. Whether you’re sending a special birthday message, celebrating an anniversary, or simply expressing your affection, the “Flippin’ Around” card is sure to delight the recipient with its charming and whimsical design.
Crafted with high-quality materials, including a sturdy card stock and a complementary kraft-paper envelope, this Wrendale Designs card is both visually stunning and well-made. It’s the perfect way to add a touch of oceanic wonder and delight to your correspondence.

About Wrendale
Hannah Dale began Wrendale Designs on a crowded kitchen table in Melton Ross, Lincolnshire. Having a pretty eclectic background (studying art at school before reading Zoology at Cambridge University followed by five years as a stockbroker in London), she found herself married to a Lincolnshire farmer with a young baby and a desperation to find an outlet for her artistic roots. Being a practical sort, Hannah turned her hand to sewing, furnishing the windows of many friends and family with beautiful curtains and blinds, and also making personalised nursery paintings for children which proved very popular.
Inspired by the glorious Lincolnshire countryside and the outdoor life, Hannah started to paint hares; loving their expressive faces and wonderful personalities – other people agreed and they were an immediate success. Spurred on by this, she expanded her repertoire and began painting other animals – foxes, pheasants, geese, dogs, hens (the family keeps cochins with their wonderfully feathery feet!).
It was then suggested to Hannah that she design some cards… and she hasn’t looked back. Since then, the company has won five prestigious Henries awards and supplies cards nationwide, as well as exporting all over the world. It has a collaboration with Portmeirion which produces wonderful quality ceramic, textile and melamine items featuring Wrendale’s designs, and it has also branched out beyond cards to produce other stationery, tinware and a fab soft furnishings range.
As the business has grown, it has become very much a family affair and Hannah’s husband Jack now runs the business, with a wonderful team processing orders, answering the phone and packing the orders so that Hannah can focus on what she enjoys most – the artwork. We are delighted that people seem to love our designs and hope to keep on creating many more!
