GreenLeaf Stationery Sample packs

Fresh off the press here are some shots of our latest sample pack.

This bespoke pack, requested by Philippa and Monty in Bristol contained 5 items of stationery each from two of our design ranges.

The couple requested a colour palette of vibrant pink and leafy green and the stationery was printed on a selection of our cotton, straw and feather papers, for them to choose from.

If you would like to receive your own tailor-made sample pack, please get in touch.

A pack similar to that above containing five items each from two design ranges costs 6.50,

and we do not charge extra for colour changes.

A speedy green affair!

Phew what a week! Amanda and I were approached by a
client at the end of last week who needed their invites,
erm now- eek!!


Our bride and groom to be have decided to get married asap-
this June, in fact and needed our help to let their friends and
family know quickly.


We happily got on with production and with the help of our
shiny new printer, needle and thread, set about making this
great variation of our jardin birds design- the colours chosen
by our bride have certainly put us in the mood for Spring!

We have asked our bride, Nicola (if she gets the time) to

write a piece for the blog on her super fast green wedding

plans- looking forward to her reply...

Leafing through the June edition of Homes & Gardens magazine (ok so it's not all green, but I can dream, can't I?) I came across an article on Sweetpeas and Bumble Bees - a brand new website selling eco-friendly cut flowers grown here in the UK.

Florist, Ashley Munro Scott has thrown herself into this new business, finding the perfect location in a traditional English walled garden. The website is a fantastic find for green brides to be, as Ashley grows a wealth of flower and foliage varieties, just right for an eco bouquet.

Browsing through the website is hugely enjoyable- with a gallery of images showing the garden's progress- from it original uncultivated state, to the visually stunning end product.
Ashley also keeps fans up to date with an often hilarious Gardeners' blog tracking their story so far.
You will be in no doubt as to the reasons why we should all be opting for seasonally produced, home grown flowers if you check out the 'Why Buy Eco-friendly Flowers' section, detailing the negative impact of importing blooms and the highly positive aspects of growing flowers from seed here in the UK, using natural feeds and pest repellents.




Sweetpeas and Bumblebees grow over 400 varieties of flowers, including alliums, peonies, Old English Roses and Sweet Williams, and they offer a bespoke service for events and weddings, "A bride marrying next year could choose her flowers this year, then watch how they're cared for from seedling to bud." How lovely!
