It can be tricky to commission a pet portrait as a gift – it's just so personal! Maybe you don't have any photos of their pet, or you have left it too late to order for Christmas or another special occasion? 

Gift vouchers are the answer! You can have the gift voucher sent directly to them with a handwritten note if you prefer, free of charge –  or have it sent to you so you can gift it in person, also free of charge. If you've left it to the very last minute, I can send the gift voucher package to you digitally as a PDF – you can then print it at home (preferably on nice paper or card) or forward it to them via email.

They have up to three months to choose their favourite photos, which means there is no rush, and the finished artwork will be gift-wrapped and sent tracked, directly to their door!

How it works...

Visit the HOW TO ORDER PAGE to take a look at options and pricing so you can choose how much you'd like to contribute to their commission. Keep in mind, you will also pay a £4.95 flat fee to cover P&P for their commission, which isn't shown on the voucher. If you have contributed enough for, let's say, a small drawing, they have the option to add to the voucher if they would actually prefer a larger one or a set of sketches instead, and at no extra cost to you – Everyone's happy 😊

Email me at opulentmutts@gmail.com with details of your order and the name/address you would like me to send the voucher to (if necessary). I will then send an order summary with the total amount due and a payment link. I will post or email the gift voucher after payment.

What will the voucher look like?

If you would like a physical gift voucher, I print them on thick postcard-sized paper (A6) with an accompanying information sheet – both presented back-to-back in a clear protective sleeve inside a festive envelope, and posted via Royal Mail in a hardback envelope for extra protection.

I have designed them small so you can pop them into a small greeting card with a personalised note if you wish. You can add an optional £3 greeting card from my shop to your order, and I am happy to hand-write a message if I am sending your gift voucher directly to the recipient – see current card designs in my online shop, including new Christmas card designs coming soon – ZARA MAKES. 

This is what your Gift Voucher and accompanying information will look like:
