BRAND

Flowerink is a business built in Montreal that's creates greeting cards and other stationery goods that are environmentally friendly. How is that possible? The paper they use is mostly seed paper! The seeds are either wildflowers or herbs. They are always trying to make the best environmental choices. Everything is illustrated and printed in Montreal, Canada.

THEIR MISSION is to offer products that are SIMPLE, ENVIRONMENTALLY FRIENDLY and that are HEARTWARMING.

A creator and an ecologist since forever, Mélanie Girard-Brisson started Flowerink in 2017 to promote stationary items that are environmentally friendly. She always was a true lover of all stationery items, so she really wanted to create something she could share with the people that had the same passion.
