Now that we’ve got gifts rolling in (yay!!! so exciting!!!), our thank you notes are rolling out. I am really excited about our thank you notes, so I thought I’d share them with you guys sooner rather than later.

For my business, I started making cards out of plantable paper. This idea really excites me because it’s good for the environment (the paper is recycled) and it’s pretty (they grow into flowers). I think these cards are perfect for thank you cards, because our guests can plant them and be reminded of our wedding for years to come.

Here’s the front of the cards:

The note on the inside reads, “this card is embedded with wildflower seeds, and it will grow if you plant it in your garden! To plant the paper, prepare a pot of soil or a small patch of garden. Spread a thin layer of soil onto the paper. Water well and give plenty of sunshine! In 6-8 weeks, you’ll be reminded of how thankful we are to have you in our lives. Thank you! May these flowers bring you years of happiness.”

I hope people actually plant them! If not, the landfills will be a little bit more colorful in 6-8 weeks.
