Alphabet Garden

 So, this next series of envelopes came about as a snowball brainstorm of ideas:


Below is the original piece I saw in Pinterest that I thought would be fun to do as a decorative env. It's an abstract alphabet, lettered all the way across the page. Originally, I thought I would do the alphabet similar, in black, and fill in with color (depending on which stamp I chose to use).
My piece:


Although I loved how it tuned out, it looked like a fun "grass" theme I could use to make flowers. SO, I tried it (1st pic above), and thought it so fun, decided to do names as well:

ABC "garden" before pic. (Haven't sent yet.)

First env. to Lina.  (Can you see the name??) 😀

I did the back "hello" similar to an env. "to myself" from years ago:


The next few are trial pieces:



I like Janet's, but the ink bled too much.  (grrr.) 😫

Then, did a "postcard" insert for Nanski:

I need to find the "perfect" stamp for these, as I don't like the red heart (unless I do mostly red flowers).

So happy with this idea!
