Eco Friendly Paper : Anna Ruby King

August 21, 2008 // kristen // 0 replies

I’m absolutely inspired by the work of Australian artist Anna Ruby King. Her creations include these irresistible cards made using rescued fabric and featuring hand drawn details.

Anna has a passion for being as eco-friendly as possible; thus, her cards are made using recycled cardstock, and she’s working towards making her business carbon neutral.

I’m also loving her series of “Nesting Materials” gocco prints and original artwork. Seeing creations like this makes me want to take a closer look at the world around me:

These prints from SepiaLepus are simply adorable. The illustrations are irresistible, with cutie patootie wildlife and stylized florals and trees featuring prominently. SepiaLepus offers Gocco and full color prints. I think that I may have to pick up a couple of these for myself!

Mmm,drool…calligraphy. I was so jazzed to discover the work of Natasha Mileshina, a.k.a. Bubbo Tubbo, via perfectbound. Her illustration and calligraphy work is right up my alley, and the custom journals she created for Julie over at perfectbound are fantastic! Natasha can make even vulgarities beautiful.

Check out her Flickr for much more eye candy and her Etsy shop, Things from Bubbo Tubbo, for illustrations and photographs. More pretties:
