The Florever Collection from Thimblepress

My eyes just about bugged out of my head when I saw the new Florever Collection from Thimblepress. Seriously, my fellow paper lovers, these cards have got it going on!

This fresh and innovative collection of die cut cards features an array of hand painted plants and floral bouquets that look like they were just delivered from the florist, but these floral and botanical beauties will never wilt or need watering. You can even write a personalized message on a gold, foil-stamped enclosure card that slides right onto the card and stand the card up using a pop-out stand in the back for easy tabletop display. Yeah, that is totally awesome!
