There is some fantastic pattern-crafting going on over at Jones Notions’ Etsy shop. Heather, the patternmaster behind all of the Jones Notions creations, draws her inspiration from a variety of sources to come up with the eye-popping designs that make up her collection. I also like that she often lets us know where her inspiration came from in her product descriptions.

The best news? Jones Notions is having a Mid-summer buy one, get one free sale! What better excuse to add to your collection of paper goods?

The peeps at Pie Bird Press have mastered the art of finding beauty and vibrancy in the everyday. You’ll find everything from cherry pie to yarn to wonderful bunches on their cards, which are made from custom linoleum cuts that are hand-printed on an antique letterpress. Their pop-art-y style is truly a feast for the eyes!

Cards range in price from $3.00-$4.00 each, and you can pick up packages of 6 to 8, as well.
