Five multicolored greeting cards featuring the collage designs, standing on a mossy boulder in the sunlight.
A black-and-white cryptid creature cavorts in a setting of blue, yellow, and hot pink torn and cut papers, accented by black oil pastel marks and dashes. The creature has ten spiky horns on its head, a wide mouth full of sharp teeth, four legs with hooves, and a horselike tail. The closed caption–style title in the lower right says Clamorous Crowd Noise in all caps.
A black-and-white whale with a big grin swims among cut and torn pieces in bright colors, including a blue wave, night sky with stars, and torn bit from a hot pink and yellow ad for 3D glasses. A closed caption–style title in the lower left says Nervous Laughter in all caps.
A grayscale woman from a vintage pest control ad dusts an orange brain. Behind her head a bit of a torn typescript from a manual typewriter is partially visible. Closed caption–style title says Humming Contentedly in all caps in the lower right.
A cryptid dolphin-like creature with a long toothy beak and blue butterfly wings leaps from pink waves into a yellow sky. The closed caption–style title in the lower left says Diminishing Roar in all caps.
A grayscale giraffe, cropped from the neck up, appears a bit sad as he floats alongside a blue-scribbed typescript poem fragment and a large red numeral five. The closed caption–style title in the lower right says Unintelligble in all caps.

$5.00

5 designs: Clamorous Crowd Noise Cryptid Creature, Nervous Laughter Whale, Humming Contentedly Woman, Diminishing Roar Winged Cryptid Creature, and Unintelligible Giraffe. Matching white envelopes. Blank inside, so they are perfect for any occasion.

As a hard-of-hearing person, I watch everything with the captions on. Nonverbal sounds are often humorously described, inspiring the imagery in this series.
