Blue mountain cards, online exploration
Blue Mountain spreads joy not only through its e cards, but through its books, calendars and posters that feature poetry and prose written over colorful nature backgrounds. Over 1,000 Blue Mountain e card designs are available to send electronically to a loved one to mark a special holiday or occasion. These messages are not available just to the English speaking world; greetings are available in many different languages. The Blue mountain cards company was started in the early 1970s by Boulder, Colorado couple Stephen Schutz and Susan Polis Schutz as a vehicle for their hobbies (illustration for Stephen, poetry for Susan). They began by combining Stephens artwork and Susans free form poetry to create poster prints that embodied their shared feelings about life, love and nature, very much in keeping with the hippie culture of the time.
