Frog Friendship Greeting Card

Wild Perla is the work of Maggie Hathaway, a Minnesota-based illustrator and designer creating colorful, nature-inspired paper goods. She started the brand as a way to share her gouache paintings and love of Scandinavian folk art, drawing on both her Swedish heritage.

Her work blends hand-painted elements, lettering, and digital illustration into bold florals, animals, and everyday scenes. Everything feels cheerful and a little nostalgic, with a focus on color, pattern, and making things that brighten someone’s day.

These are the kinds of cards that feel genuinely warm without being overly sweet. The hand-painted style and folk-inspired details make them feel a little more special than something off a big rack. Easy to give, and nice enough that people might actually keep them!
