Our Story
We are Rebecca and Karl, a husband and wife team based in the heart of the Cotswolds. We started Wildflower Illustration Co. in 2015 because we believe in the power of a handwritten note to brighten someone’s day or capture a shared memory. In an increasingly digital world, we hope our cards and stationery will spread a little joy on doormats around the world.
Drawing inspiration from nature and travel, Rebecca paints to capture the beauty of the world around her, and her designs are inspired by a love for all things wild and free.
We are passionate about ensuring that we do not negatively impact upon our fragile planet, and have been doing our best to keep our footprint to a minimum since we started producing our cards in 2013.
As a business selling a physical product, we feel strongly that we must offset any impact in the creation of a physical item. We also feel passionately that the art of the written letter and card is a practice that enriches the lives of many, and that emails and texts should not blindly replace all written communication.
We therefore strive to offer a balance of both: we advocate the mindful aquisition of cherished cards and art prints, with the promise that it has been created in the most planet-friendly way we can find, and that we have replaced all (and more) that we have taken from the planet through our planting of trees.
Do you wish that you wrote to friends and family a bit more, but never quite seem to find the time or energy to do so? If you sign up to our monthly stationery subscription service, we’ll send you a beautiful, hand-packaged collection of greetings cards and stationery to your door each month. This means you’ll have access to our newest, seasonal designs as well as access to special offers and subscriber exclusives.
Are you looking for something special for your wedding or special event? Each year we work on a small number of Weddings and events, creating unique illustrations to reflect the feel of the occasion. We offer Invitations, Save the Dates, Illustrated Maps, Information Cards, RSVP cards, Table Plans, Illustrated Schedules and more.
