Hawaii Island artist Leilehua Yuen began designing and producing her line of Hawaiian Language greeting cards in 1994, gradually developing it into the largest and oldest currently produced line of greeting cards in the Hawaiian language. Originally they were available only in fine art stores on the islands of Hawai`i and Maui. Now, she has begun to upload her designs to CafePress, making them available to everyone who enjoys her art. It will take time to upload her extensive line, so please check back regularly!
