Our Elbows Up! greeting card doesn’t pull punches—because that’s the whole point. In hockey, “elbows up” means protect yourself, hold your ground, and don’t get pushed around. Lately, it’s taken on a second life in Canadian culture—a blunt, no-nonsense response to threats, noise, and anyone testing the edges of our sovereignty.

This piece drives that message home with zero subtlety. A Canadian hockey player delivers a clean, hard elbow straight to Donald Trump’s nose—an unfiltered, symbolic shot at the rhetoric and posturing that’s crossed the line. Trump, dazed in a USA number 47 jersey, looks exactly how you’d expect. The Canadian player—seen only by a gloved arm and stick—wears number 13, representing every province and territory.

It’s not polite. It’s not delicate. It’s Canadian pushback—with steel in it.

Shipping Specifics 

Pre-inspection Before Shipping.

We stand by our products. Each print and frame is inspected for printing defects or damages as it is packaged for shipping. We will not ship prints or framed art we would not be proud to hang on our walls.  

Packaging Care and Materials.

Every ManMade Art order leaves our studio in packaging custom made for our products, ensuring it arrives in excellent condition. Unfortunately, accidents can happen in transit. If your order arrives damaged, we will replace it. We only ask that you provide photos of the packaging and item damages so we can assess what happened during shipping. 

Damaged in Transit.

All orders are carefully packaged in sturdy cardboard containers to protect them from the normal rigours of shipping. If your package arrives damaged, please keep the original packaging and send us photos. We'll get a replacement to you, but we can't process a replacement without seeing the damage first.

Shipping Policy and Terms.

Please double-check your shipping address and ensure it can be received at your specified address (residence or business). If, for some reason, delivery is denied to the correct address, fear not, we will help you find your order. If we give the shipper the wrong delivery address, we will pay for any extra shipping charges associated with the error. If it is hopelessly lost for reasons beyond our control, unfortunately, we'll have to share the new shipping costs based on our standard rates. Repeat free shipping is a one-time offer not available in these situations.
