One of my favorite garden flowers are cosmos. They grow tall on thin stems and reach towards the sun. Cosmos stand for harmony, order, peace and tranquility. Right now, we all need to stand for peace. Cosmos are the perfect flowers for this time of upheaval.

This cosmos cards is stamped from one flower of the trio I cut for a full sized print (process seen in last photos). I drew the pollen in by hand and colored it with watercolor marker. The stem is also drawn in with marker and colored with water color marker and pencils. Each one is slightly different, as is nature.

Send some peace to someone you love. Hand-printed on a paper bag colored folded card with a ladybird beetle printed envelope to seal it in. This set is an A7 flat and envelope measuring 5.25” x 7.25”. Water based inks are printed on paper bag colored paper made of 30% post consumer waste.

thank you for looking!
