Lovely letterpress
I love the look and tactile nature of letterpress printing, and I’m fascinated by old herbal remedies. So it’s only fitting that I love these Notes to Grow On by Lizard Press on Etsy.
Based on botanical illustrations from the German incunabula period [1450-1500AD], the cards come with a small packet of seeds.
Lovely!

I’m convinced letterpress was made for botanical prints. They just go together, don’t they?
Pure gorgeousness!
