Good News! Notecards of my Flower Characters.
I couldn’t wait to tell you about this.
Someone special contacted me some time ago. She wanted to know if I I liked the idea of turning my flower girls into notecards. Yes, I love the idea -I said. So we started working on the project. The special person’s name is Rina. She works for TeNeues, a publishing company with branches in different countries. TeNeues makes top quality cards, calendars and books. The contract has been signed, the designers are doing their part now and soon the cards will be available to everyone. I can’t believe that my flower girls are going to be traveling all over the world, they are so lucky!
The concept is:
20 notecards, 4 each of 5 images
20 envelopes
Sturdy, re-useable box, great for storage
The box measures 5 1/2 x 7 1/2 x 1 1/2 inches (14 x 19.1 x 3.8 cm)
Can you believe it? One day I followed my son Diego in his garden explorations, he inspired me to make the flower characters, and now they have a life of their own. I’m celebrating right now with a glass or orange juice. Cheers! And one thing is for sure, as soon as I get a few of these boxes I will have a giveaway right on this blog because here is the place were Rina found them.
UPDATE
The cards came out beautiful! They’re available here.

Juisa is my favorite!!
I always knew your little flower girls would travel the world and have big adventures. I love each and every one of them . My favorite of the new group is odilia because you have mixed wild flowers ( or weeds some would call them) and domesticated flowers together and isn’t that similar to who we are. I can’t wait to buy a box and send notes to friends and family all around the world. Diego , thank you for being such an important inspiration and guide for your mommy.
Congratulations!Your work is so beautiful and you deserve it
I have always loved your flower girls, and I’m not surprised that they caught the attention of this company. Congratulations to you!

I see Amore has hands that look like parts of Queen Ann’s Lace to me. Did you know that there are plants that look like Queen Ann’s Lace? You will want to know the difference between the lacy plants if you don’t already know. If you click on Flassie’s Fil’a I set it up to my photos of Queen’s Ann Lace and a link that will tell you about the differences between them. I forgot to tell you earlier. So I went and looked up some info and added the link to it.
God Bless You and Yours!!!
