Lotus Seeds & Lotus Seeds Design
Lotus Seeds, previously known as Tee's Works, is now in its fifth year of providing one-of-a-kind fine-art greeting cards with Asian Charm to the U.S. greeting card lovers. We take pride in sharing the beauty of traditional Chinese art and Eastern wisdom through our fine paper products.
Lotus Seeds is a small independent greeting cards publisher and a one-woman-show Web Design house. The inspiration behind Lotus Seeds is Tee G. Peng, a young Malaysian woman of Chinese descent who dearly loves the Chinese culture and language.
Our Social commitment
Lotus Seeds is an environmental and ecological conscious publisher. All our card designs are printed on recycled paper and the cellophane bags we used are also recyclable.
Paper used for cards and envelopes:
- 1) Wausau Exact® Index 140lb White Green Seal® certified, containts 30% recycled post-consumer fiber
- 2) Fox River Howard Linen 80lb cover white: 30% recycled post-consumer, ECF, Acid Free and Archival

- 7) The only none recycled paper we use is Vellum 70lb text Lee size envelope. We are currently looking for other source of envelope that is affordable to us and offer the same high quality that meets our customers' expectation.
We use PP5 cello-bags from Clearbags.com
Because of the Asian style designs, we have been asked many times that if we outsource everything in China. The answer is NO. We work with artists from Asia countries, but production and the designs are done exclusively in the US.
Each year, Lotus Seeds makes a small percentage of its profit to non-profit organization and monastery for Buddhist religious, cultural, nuns and girls education [1] and ecological projects, and to people who have lost their homes in disaster.
Lastly, all the beautiful artworks on this website are the creation of several talented Chinese artists who have worked with Lotus Seeds for many years. As far as Lotus Seeds concerned, Tee prefers her role as a sincere and diligent assembler who loves the Chinese culture and to share the beauty of traditional Chinese art with Americans through the simple form of greeting cards.
We hope Lotus Seeds unique card designs will enhance your retail mix and add a feature of Asian beauty as well as culture to your special store.

[1] Buddhism is a way of life in places like Nepal and Tibet, however, many families are poor and can only afford to send one child for Buddhist education. Oftentimes, girls are left behind or make sacrifice due to local custom and culture.
