Letterpress Greeting Cards from Heart Swell

July 12, 2016 // kristen // 0 replies

From the dynamic lettering and cloud-like swashes that embellish their You Blow Me Away card to their sweetly hand lettered and copper foil stamped Marble Thank You cards, Heart Swell’s lovely line of letterpress greetings catch the eye in a more subtle way.

Their blend of darling, hand lettered sentiments and understated colors – navy, forest green, mid-gray, and old gold, with touches of copper foil (so pretty!) – comes together for a look that’s modern, sophisticated, and completely craveable.

Patterned Origami Shirt Cards from Scout Editions

July 11, 2016 // kristen // 1 replies

Scout Editions’ Shirt Series is the perfect mix of pattern and origami, and I’m lovin’ every last fold! Each shirt design is first illustrated and printed as a risogaph. Then, the little shirts are individually hand-folded and mounted onto a card base. Designs in the series include Brights (shown above), with patterns that range from sweet, little pineapples to cherries and botanicals, as well as Pastels and Denims (selections shown below), which feature more subtle, wonderfully textured pattern designs.

The Florever Collection from Thimblepress

July 05, 2016 // kristen // 1 replies

My eyes just about bugged out of my head when I saw the new Florever Collection from Thimblepress. Seriously, my fellow paper lovers, these cards have got it going on!

This fresh and innovative collection of die cut cards features an array of hand painted plants and floral bouquets that look like they were just delivered from the florist, but these floral and botanical beauties will never wilt or need watering. You can even write a personalized message on a gold, foil-stamped enclosure card that slides right onto the card and stand the card up using a pop-out stand in the back for easy tabletop display. Yeah, that is totally awesome!

Paper Pony Co. first caught my attention this past holiday season with their snort-laugh-inducing “Happy Meownukkah” card, and my love for their sharp stationery goodies was solidified as soon as I laid my eyes on their Crazy Cat Lady stickers and Bites the Dust engagement card. What can I say? I’m a sucker for cats and Queen.

If you’re a fellow feline fanatic, or if you just like clever, sharp, and snarky stationery, then Paper Pony’s greeting cards, stickers, and art prints are an absolute must see. Check out some of my faves below, and head on over to the Paper Pony Co. shop to see everything that they offer.
