Art Cards-Weeks 19 and 20

Last week marked the end of my semester and my brother’s graduation from graduate school, so I used those occasions as inspiration for my art cards.

I know my brother’s achievement of getting his Master’s degree is still sinking in for him. I personally feel one step closer to becoming an artist with all the creative challenges I went through this semester.

I have been wanting illustrate seed packets for a few months, so I created a set of art cards to look like seed packets.

I used two of my favorite flowers for inspiration – morning glories and moonflowers. I planted the seedlings in the ground recently, so I hope they grow as well outside as they did in their indoor seed kits.

  1. Hi Terri! Lovely cards again and I love that ‘artist cannot fail’! I’m so happy for you to have those art classes to join and you are an artist with all your creations!

  2. You are an artist already 🙂 and always have been (now you are just letting her out to play more!) Though I agree that through learning techniques and challenging yourself you are more confident in your abilities and talents.

    Fantastic art cards – Mike’s graduation card is great with the silhouette. I also love your positive affimation artist card.

    The seed packet cards are adorable – I love the names of those flowers and the way you have illustrated them. I’m going to be a moonflower tonight as it is approaching 10pm and I’m just about to start my art card post lol.

    Hope you’re having a great time.
    Love Shell x

  3. I love the positivity that comes through in these art cards! The seed packets are especially cool; the dimensioning (is that a word?) really shows!

  4. These are great Terri! i always make my own greeting cards for my family. They’re not usually that pretty though! Great job….also love the ones that look like seed packets…supercute!

  5. I like the seed packets a lot! Morning glories get to be quite invasive in California, so we couldn’t really plant them without very close attention… but I do love the flowers!! The moonflowers look a bit like a “weed” we had in California that we had to pull out all the time because they’d choke out everything else. That’s the problem with zones where it never freezes, I suppose!!

  6. Hi Terri
    your artwork is great,really like the seed packet idea, i am behind this week with art cards but ahead with orders….one week i’ll be ahead with everything, or at least a balance

  7. You are doing wonderful on your art projects. It is a great idea to keep yourself challenged through the summer. I know you will be showing us some wonderful things, and I look forward to seeing your progress! Thanks so much for sharing.

    Sorry, I have fallen behind in my reading… my challenge this summer is to keep up with things! lol!
