Crate Paper Little Sprout

Okay, so if you’ve been reading this blog for any length of time, then you know that I’m a sucker for cute. Owls, squirrels, birdies, mushrooms … love! Well, I was stunned by the absolute cuteness that is Crate Paper’s Little Sprout collection. Not only does it feature papers with all of the aforementioned cuteness, but there are several wonderful, modern patterns in the collection, as well.

I’m completely taken with the work of Austin, Texas based artist, Leah Duncan. Her illustrations and pattern work are just beautiful — light, organic, with a touch of whimsy. And I totally want the owl!

I’m enjoying Studio MIKMIK’s first series of Gocco printed Pattern Studies note cards. Series One is called Saltaire in Stone and is inspired by the Italianate architecture found within the UNESCO World Heritages village of Saltaire, West Yorkshire, UK. The village contains archways, columns, and stone flowers that can be seen in this series of prints. Seeing these patterns reminds me of the ancient history and classics courses that I took in college.
