Keepsake Card - Tulips & Friends

Tulips & Friends Keepsake Card

Like a gathering of good friends, the tulips in this bouquet are surrounded by delightful companions: daffodils, hellebores, honeysuckle, juniper, lilac, and ranunculus. Inside, the art continues softly behind your message, along with the traditional meaning of each bloom:

• Daffodil: evanescent happiness

• Hellebore: serenity

• Honeysuckle: affection

• Juniper: protection

• Lilac: first love

• Ranunculus: charm

• Tulip: caring

Read together, these meanings sound like everything a true friend offers: caring, affection, charm, and a sense of serenity and protection. It’s a wonderful card for a best friend’s birthday, a “just because” hello, or a thank-you to someone who is always there for you.

With daffodil’s evanescent happiness, those sweet, passing moments of joy, it’s also a reminder to treasure the time you share.

Friendship runs through this card’s creation, too. My flowers come from Muddy Feet Flower Farm, a fellow woman-owned business, and I love knowing that every bouquet I draw supports another woman’s dream. I spent about 30 hours on this original in black ink and colored pencil, at 18" x 24".
