Here are all the flower postcards that I made for the postcard swap:
As this last one was going within the UK, I sent it naked - no envelope. I hope Royal Mail treat it well.
I used camellia petals, forget-me-nots and cherry blossoms from my garden. The results were very variable - some of the petals turned brownish, some bits didn't stick properly and the cherry blossom went very transparent. Despite their imperfections and the wonkiness of the stitched lines, I think the postcards have an antique looking charm about them. Flowers are in bloom for such a short time that it's nice to capture them in postcards.

These are so pretty, what a creative idea. The forget-me-nots are so sweet!
