In spite of all the technologies available for keeping in touch, there’s still nothing that compares to handmade correspondence. Whether a card written by an old friend or a thank-you message sent by a business associate, handmade greetings are appreciated, remembered, and treasured. Garden Greetings offers a fresh and unique twist on cardmaking with 28 beautiful ideas all inspired by nature. Full-page photos and detailed tip boxes guide readers in the art of flower pounding, seed collages, and other techniques for making greeting and holiday cards, party and wedding invitations, thank-you cards, and more. The book also includes free templates, color images, and lettering samples to help artists create cards that look as professionally produced as they are personally inspired.
From pop-up posies to floral monograms to lavender flower mailers, here is a bouquet of creative ways to add beauty to personalized correspondence.
