New from Papersheep Press

The new spring lineup of letterpressed lovelies from Papersheep Press is so much fun! New designs include everything from sets of everday flat cards, including a thank you, “Merci”, and an everyday hello, “Hey Sailor”. Also featured are a clever “coffee stained” warm hello, a great little change of address card, and a folded “Greatest” card that would be just the greeting for a new graduate or for your super awesome mom or dad.

Oh, and I just have to say that Papersheep’s “Knit Notes” are so cool! If you’re looking for a great stationery gift for a friend who knits, then you’ve gotta check these out.
