Botanical Sachets

My mother has a set of botanical-themed playing cards that she inherited from her mother.  Each card is different, and each has a beautiful sketch of a flower along with a list of the other flowers in its family.  I scanned the playing cards, flipped the images, printed them on fabric transfer paper, and ironed them onto muslin in order to make these lavender sachets.

  1. in seeing this first hand, this is incredibly creative. When did you think of this? Apparently right away since you took the cards away.
