Swoozies is a great web site with an assortment of designer invitations. This is a great site to find stationery gift items. Many of the items can be personalized with a name or initials. Swoozies is currently celebrating their 6 year anniversary. I’ve never heard of them before but it looks like the people behind Swoozies know how to sell great paper products! They have a ton of products so check out the site when you have some free time.
Last month I posted some stationery designs from Vanessa Cavaco. Vanessa has a unique stationery line and recently launched a new website. Now you can purchase here as well as on etsy.
Personally I loved her work and it seemed like everyone else did as well. I was so happy when Vanessa agreed to do a giveaway this week. Here is what you can win…. A pack of FIVE Nastee Notes from Vanessa Cavaco. To enter, post any comment below before 12:00 p.m. EST time on Friday 10/26. Good Luck!!!

Sometimes I think a beautiful extraordinary card is better than a gift. I would be so happy to receive something in the mail that looked like this. These birthday cards from Cecily Ink are so beautiful. The card actually comes with a matching 41 cent postage stamp. What a great idea! The stamp helps create such a completed look to the card set.
This is way off the subject of stationery but I just had to tell you about these undershirts. These topless undershirts let you get the look of layering without adding straps or an extra bulky layer. You can adjust the topless undershirt to be any length you want by pulling it up or down.
And look how cute they are for maternity! You can still wear your shirts that get to short by adding a topless shirt underneath. Sweet!

I spent a lot of time on etsy last night as I sadly watched the Indians lose to the Red Sox. I really hope we can win this series!
This pear card from Print Maker Jenn grabbed my eye immediately. I love the color combination. The card is a digital illustration printed on linen textured cardstock. Size is 4.25″ x 5.5″.
Jenn has a lot of cool prints in her shop too. I’m hoping to have some more time this weekend to look at them.

I was so happy to see the Lovely Design website updated with new products. There are some great new journals in many different colors. Sharilyn has also made her lovely blog public now. She posted about these jotter books and said they would be available in the shop soon. I really like the one with the birds.

These everyday notes from Cake and Milk Paperie are perfect for everyday note writing. (first image) The cards are printed with assorted phrases.
I also really like the sewn ric rac cards. For some reason I’m always drawn to stationery items that have yarn or thread on them. It adds texture and design at the same time.


Vivian from Blend Creations probably thinks I’m a little crazy. She emailed me about her website and I wrote her back in probably less than a minute. That’s how long it took me to fall in love with these cards. Aren’t they beautiful? I love the detail and the color contrast. These laser-cut cards are blank on the inside and printed on 30% recycled paper. The cards are sold in a set of 6 with matching envelopes.
Blend Creations also has some really nice jewelry. Make sure to check it out right here. Thanks for the email Vivian!!
