Notes from The Fox

Thistles are a tough and beautiful plant, and Stacey's pattern catches both sides of that. The design uses deep green leaves and soft purple blooms in her loose hand-drawn style. It has a slight Scottish and folk-art feel without getting too literal about it. Stacey works from her studio near the Derbyshire border and draws all her own patterns. A quiet favorite of mine for botanical journals.

Product Details and Specs

The pattern is a repeat of thistle heads and spiky leaves in green and soft purple on a cream ground. The tape is printed on traditional Japanese-style washi paper with a low-tack, removable adhesive. It tears cleanly by hand, sticks well to paper and cardstock, and lifts without leaving residue. The paper is plastic-free and fully recyclable.
