Card: Long Stem Flower



I made this card for my auntie who turned 99 earlier this month. I made it kind of on a whim after making these cards. I had been drained of energy and ideas. I had made the flower part for another card but did not end up using it, and I had the leaves from another project as well so I ended up just taking a tiny little sliver from green paper to use as a stem.

I liked how it turned out and I think I might make a whole set of these with different color flowers to put on my etsy shop once I open it. I might even make a notebook with this. Simple to make, but pretty. Curious to know if you all like them as much as I do.

  8. I love this card and it's simplicity. I would buy a set for my mom. She has MS and really enjoys keeping in touch with family and friends still via "snail-mail" even though it's increasingly difficult for her to write. Hope you're well!
