About Push the Envelope Cards

Lianne has called Asheville home for over a decade, working freelance in Food Safety and Human Resources for small food and beverage businesses across Western North Carolina. During the pandemic, she started learning graphic design, and found herself replacing store-bought cards with her own quirky, heartfelt versions instead. One thing led to another, and by 2023, Push the Envelope was born. Her cards (and now stickers!) can be found on Etsy, in a downtown Asheville shop, and at local markets — all infused with humor, honesty, and a love of connection. Follow along at @pushtheenvelopecards, where she highlights new card designs with vintage photos of herself sporting various 80s bowl cuts.Read their story
