Nicky’s work begins with hand-made felt, shaped into stylized birds, flowers, and other natural motifs. Each piece is edged with metal zips and delicately hand-embroidered for a vivid pop of colour and texture. By mounting these components at different heights with small pins, Nicky creates subtle shadows that bring depth and dimension to her designs.
Once completed, the artwork is professionally photographed, capturing every tiny stitch and unique detail, and then transformed into high-quality greeting cards.
These cards showcase the vibrant energy of Nicky’s creations and offer a glimpse into her playful interpretation of nature – perfect for anyone who appreciates handcrafted artistry and a fresh take on familiar themes.
My cards and gifts are stocked at National Trust Tatton Park stately home, gift shops in Cheshire and in several smaller UK and US Independents and recently Memphis Botanic Gardens, Tennessee.
Since starting my online shop in 2022 I’ve had over 5,000 Etsy orders, two Etsy bestseller greeting cards, Star Seller status and all my cards given the ‘Etsy Pick’ seal of approval.
All greeting cards are printed here in the UK, using high quality FSC certified card stock, and are fully recyclable.
