Touches The Heart By bubblywriter on - Updated Oct 15, 2011
I've always believed the verse is the most important aspect when buying a card. The cover, although, it should be attractive is irrelevant if the verse touches me. Marjolein Bastin's cards capture the worlds innocence while expressing sentiments in a clever, dynamic, beautiful manner. She allows you to breathe in the freshness of a garden breeze while appreciating the unfurling blossoms of the exquisite flowers. The simplicity of a butterfly landing on a flower, a bird in its exotic loveliness, a rabbit running across a yard. Her artistic blessings in idyllic settings. Her allusions to these quiet moments and events which we sometimes overlook as her words paint the picture. These cards and their author's gift give us joy as we open the envelope to view her insights into natures wonders.

I'm not sure if I have ever seen these cards or not. I will have to look for them the next time I am card shopping. Thank you for the info.
I love picking out greeting cards. I will have to find some of these next time I need some. I agree that the verse is very important.
