New cards in www.pressedflowerart.store - my website. Perfect for Mother's Day (US, CAN, AUS, NZ) on the 14th May These cards have real pressed flowers on them - they aren't prints. The actual card is pearlescent so its hue alters slightly if you move it. More cards coming soon!
Making prints of all my cards will be my next task. One step at a time...even if my steps are taking a while at the moment!!

Adorable Hellebores.
Why and where!
Hello! I am passionate about plants...I make hand-pressed flower art and incorporate that into different media - framed art, glass paperweights, glass coasters and cards. I collect the majority of my material from my garden here in Edinburgh, Scotland (I’m a keen gardener) and then press it. I have been creating for many years - the dragon of my business name sits on my craft desk and was the inspiration for my name.
I’m currently working on creating my own website where you will be able to purchase items.
