Butterfly Garden Card: Thinking of You Floral Meadow

Butterfly Garden Card shows Thinking of You in soft gray script above a painted meadow of flowers and butterflies, a simple message for someone you've been missing. The words carry the whole feeling, so the card needs no joke to land. It suits anyone who likes a little color and calm in their mail.

Ships with a kraft envelope; envelope color in photo may vary.

What the print says

The words Thinking of You sit across the top in a thin, flowing script, set against a pale background. Below them a painted meadow rises in layers of yellow, pink and coral blooms on tall green stems. Some flowers are wide and open, while others are small and clustered among the grasses. Soft blue and sage leaves fill the gaps, so the whole garden feels full without looking crowded. Several butterflies float through the scene, one bright blue, one deep black with pale markings, and a few orange and black ones near the edges. Each insect is painted with the same loose brushwork as the flowers, which ties the picture together. The card reads as a small patch of garden you could stop and look at for a moment. It is a calm, cheerful image that belongs to late spring and summer, when meadows are at their fullest and butterflies are out in the sun.

Who sees themselves in it

You will notice the butterflies first, then the bright flowers rising from the bottom edge. This card suits the friend who always has a garden going, the relative who loves walks past wildflowers, or anyone who keeps a window box full of blooms. It also fits someone who simply likes soft colors and a bit of nature on the mantel. Many people send it to a friend they haven't seen for a while, or to someone living far from home who misses the local countryside.

Meant as a gift

This card works well as a note sent between visits, a small message that says you were thinking about them on an ordinary afternoon. It can also come along with a bunch of flowers, a packet of seeds or a cup of tea. Keep it on the windowsill after reading, where the painted meadow can catch the light.
