They combined Stephens artwork and Susans free form poetry to create posters expressing their shared feelings about life, love and nature, which was very much in keeping with the hippie culture of the time. The Blue mountain cards company was initially conceived as a poster business when the couple persuaded a local Boulder bookstore to offer several of their posters on consignment. The popularity of the posters convinced Stephen and Susan to offer them to other stores in the area, and the business soon took off. The parent company, Blue Mountain Arts, was officially formed in 1971. Stephen and Susan travelled the country selling their art, and business expanded so much that they soon branched out into gift books, calendars and stationery.
