About

From a love of exploring Canada’s backcountry and communities, with a camera in hand, came Lay of the Land Stationery. A heartfelt message and the natural beauty of Canada is the perfect way to say “I care” to your friendsand family, and is suited to any occasion.

Our Ecological Promise

Lay of the Land Stationery understands the impact we have on our environment, and is wholy committed to reducing our footprint wherever possible to preserve our beautiful landscapes.

Tree Planting Program

5% of proceeds from card sales are put towards tree planting and reforestation of the Canadian Boreal forest.

Kick-Back Program

We are planning card collections specific to particular Canadian provincial and national parks. 5% of proceeds from the sales of these collections will be donated to the “Friends Of” volunteer programs that help maintain and improve these parks. For example, 5% of proceeds from a “Frontenac Provincial Park” card collection would be donated to the “Friends of Frontenac Park” volunteer group.

Material Choices

Providing a quality and affordable product means we have to make some tradeoffs, but we are always doing our best to minimize our environmental impact through our material choices:

  • Our envelopes are made of 100% recycled content, and are recycleable
  • Our collection boxes are made of 100% recycled content, and are compostable or recycleable
  • Our clear sleeves (which wrap individual cards) are made of plant-based material, and are compostable
  • Our cardstock paper is made with 100% Forest Stewardship Council certified paper, and is recycleable
  • Our cards are printed using toner, which we consider to be a more environmentally friendly option versus pignemtn or dye-based inks

About the Creator

Stuart Layland

Stuart has always felt that a simple card goes a long way in showing someone you care. What better way to show it than through a versatile greeting card featuring the natural beauty of Canada?

A blank card clears the way for a meaningful and undiluted note to those most dear to you, while a striking photograph encourages your note to find a featured location in their home.
