One of A Kind Cards

Now these are true one of a kind art cards!
I bought them in the little gift shop attached to the Louvre gardens in Paris. This shop is dedicated to gardening...so no surprise that they would choose an artist who used dried flowers and leaves in her work.

I almost bought all the cards. It was so hard to reign myself in! But I was mesmerised by the detail and the plants that she used to create outfits for these girls.

There was no website or email attached to the cards so I need to admire the artist from afar.

Here are a few detail images.

The moss was a beautiful touch.

Huge petals were incorporated into this card! Note the hand writing.

The hands were both modern and sweet.
I need to find a way to protect these cards so I can leave them out on display. I think I will put them in a clear plastic sleeve and then arrange them on a bulletin board.
