Garstang greeting card is from North East artist Emily Ward's beautiful range of blank art cards. This greeting card has been created from original artwork by Emily.
Emily’s art greeting card depicts the charming town square scene in Garstang, filled with warmth, colour, and character. At the centre stands the tall stone lamp post adorned with two traditional lanterns, its base surrounded by a vibrant burst of flowers.
The blossoms are painted in a joyful mix of reds, purples, pinks, yellows, and blues, applied with scattered strokes. The surrounding building, rendered in soft golden-brown stone and creamy whites with slate roofs, create a sense of historic charm.
Wooden benches on the right suggest a welcoming communal space, while the curved cobblestones beneath the lamp post add to the town’s rustic feel. The sky glows in a soft halo of yellow and white, radiating out into cool blues, giving the scene both warmth and a dreamlike atmosphere.
Overall, Emily's art captures the cosy, inviting spirit of a traditional English market town with a lively use of colour and light.

Garstang
Garstang
, a charming market town in Lancashire in the North West of England, is best known as the world’s first Fairtrade town, a status it achieved in 2000. Set on the banks of the River Wyre and close to the scenic landscapes of the Forest of Bowland, it offers a mix of historic character and natural beauty.
The town has a rich heritage as a market centre, with trading traditions that date back to the 14th century, and today its high street is filled with independent shops, welcoming cafés, and local businesses that give it a distinctive, friendly atmosphere.
With the Lancaster Canal and a network of walking and cycling routes nearby, Garstang also attracts those looking to explore the surrounding countryside. Combining history, community spirit, and beautiful scenery, it remains a unique and inviting destination in the North West.
