A cardinal flower stands in delicate botanical detail against a cream ground, its tubular scarlet blooms arranged in a vertical spike with deep green lance-shaped leaves below. The hand-colored illustration captures the flower with precise observation and soft watercolor technique, rendering both the plant's architectural structure and the gentle gradations of red pigment with naturalistic grace. Printed on smooth white card stock and made to order, artwork on the front, blank inside, envelopes included in every set. A handwritten note that arrives as an independent artist's work.
