Messenger Bird Press

Tuesday, January 22nd, 2008




These little wood creatures from Messenger Press are so cute. They are blank inside so perfect any time. All cards are beautifully created with letterpress. I love the flower design too. Makes me think of warm spring weather!

Paper Lion

Monday, January 21st, 2008



The other night I opened up my closet and saw a jar of book paste had spilled all over the floor. That was not a fun night. I never got all the paste out of the carpet but at least it’s in the closet. Next time I will have to skip the book paste and try another method like some of the bindings in the etsy shop of Paper Lion. Paper Lion offers many notebooks and notepad holders. There are many different patterns and sizes. Click here to start shopping.

Light Posting

I’m sorry for my lack of posts this week. I guess that’s what happens when blogging is not you’re full time job, right? Thanks for understanding. I’ll be back on Monday. Have a good weekend.

SISKAstudio

Tuesday, January 15th, 2008



I’m just showing you a few things from the etsy shop of SISKAstudio, but you should definitely check out the rest of the collection. The shop is full of colors and textures. This shop has a wide range of style. Each item is different from the next. Shops like this are very interesting. You never know what the artist is going to create next.

Mini Favor Boxes

Monday, January 14th, 2008

These mini favor boxes would be fun for many occasions. Each favor box is double sided. The boxes come unassembled so you can choose which pattern to show on the outside. When put together the boxes measure 1 1/2″ x 1 1/2″ x 7/8″. I love the patterns!

You can purchase 18 boxes for $5.00 right here.

Pop-Up Cards by Tracy Chong

Monday, January 14th, 2008




These handmade pop-up cards are amazing! The cards are 5.2″ x 4″ and are made of cardstock. Each card comes with a matching envelope. I can imagine how much time goes into creating one of these cards. They are very unique.

Tracy is currently earning her graduate degree in science but obviously she also has a strong passion for art. If you’re looking for something special to send to a friend definitely check out Tracy’s shop.

Turtle Papers

Friday, January 11th, 2008



Turtle Papers is probably one of my favorite online stationery shops. I have to control myself from posting about them everyday. The work they produce is beautiful. They also have a lot more to offer besides stationery. The online shop carries wall art, gift tags, calendars and even tees.

Valentine’s Day cards are everywhere. I’m really liking the collection in the etsy shop of papereredtogether. They are sort of nontraditional but that’s what makes them unique. The letterpress cards are printed on 100% cotton (tree free) paper.

Ice Cream Social

I fell in love with these cards posted on design*sponge the other day. They are so pretty and perfect for valentines day or any day of course. The cards are from the etsy shop of Ice Cream Social. Six cards in a pack with matching envelopes. Pretty, Pretty, Pretty!

On a Side Note

Wednesday, January 9th, 2008

My husband and I just booked a trip to Cabo San Lucas in Mexico. We’re really excited and we’ve never been to this part of Mexico before. Has anyone traveled to Cabo recently? Any reviews to share before we go? Thanks!
