Jane and I met at a Dog Park in Nashville, Tennessee. We started dating; then both moved to San Francisco for our careers. After living in San Francisco, we moved to Austin and then finally to Houston nine years ago. Along the way, we have had five children, a cat, a dog, and endless memories. She is a Super Mom and does wonderful things for my children and me!

HOW DOES IT LOOK?

Greeting card stories will be shipped through traditional snail mail. Each image is hand-drawn by a talented Tellinga artist on a 5.5" x 8.5" greeting card sized postcard. It is then placed in a 6" x 9" brown grocery bag style envelope. A Tellinga stamp is then applied and sent to your desired location. Afterward, the digital copies of the story are uploaded in the "Download Your Story" section of the website to share online with family and friends.
