This is a photograph of a set of 4 greeting cards lying on a wooden table surrounded by wild flowers and grasses. The designs were carved from lino and depict the architectural shapes of various seed heads, including cow parsley, aquilegia, grass and poppies.

I love flowers (obviously!) but autumn's a great time to appreciate the beauty of seed heads too. I designed this set of linocut greeting cards to capture their interesting shapes πŸ’š
