Vancouver-based Think & Ink Studio may have opened just a couple of months ago, but this online shop has already brought a breath of fresh air to the stationery world with their collection of unique, modern greeting cards and stationery. Bambs Hemmings, the designer behind Think & Ink, is inspired by texture, geometric motifs, and typography, and her style is a balance of bold and often chaotic backgrounds with clean typography, smart use of white space, and beautiful color.

August 22, 2012 // kristen // 2 replies

I am completely enamored with UK-based illustrator, Imogen Owen’s, first range of greeting cards. Each letterpress printed card in the ‘say what YOU want’ collection features one of Imogen’s wonderfully cute characters with an empty thought or speech bubble for you to customize with your own message or greeting, which makes these cards versatile as well as fun.

Check out Imogen’s website for more information about her and her work, and head over to her Etsy shop to pick up some of these sweet cards.

Gumo Cards + Prints

August 15, 2012 // kristen // 0 replies

I am totally digging these fun, illustrated art prints and cards by the UK’s Sally and Andrew, a.k.a. gumo. Their collection of cards features gumo’s super cool illustrations along with sentiments for birthdays, baby, and more. And their fantastic alphabet and art prints would look wonderful in a nursery or child’s room, though I have to say that I would totally hang them in my office, too. Head on over to the gumo gallery to see all of their illustrated paper goodies.
