Doublenaut Super Mario Poster

February 24, 2011 // kristen // 2 replies

I’ve never been anything close to what you’d call a “gamer”, but back in the day, when the original Nintendo was cutting edge technology, I actually got to be pretty good at Super Mario Bros. Super Mario 3 was my game, and I think I actually went the whole way and beat the big, bad monster at the end. This totally cool Mario poster by Doublenaut brought back great memories of my Super Mario days, and I hope it will do the same for fellow paper-loving Nintendo junkies.

By the way, what was the deal with Super Mario 2? That one was like a video game on acid, with the little animal monster things wearing Venetian masks, and the drum music and cloud/vine worlds. I sort of wandered around and collected coins and threw stuff, but I was very confused.

My Mind’s Eye Stella Rose Collection

February 23, 2011 // kristen // 1 replies

My Mind’s Eye recently released a fantastic new scrapbooking collection called Stella Rose, which is selling out quickly in every place that I’ve been able to find it. The multi-faceted collection features a number of different sub-collections, all of which have a really great vintage feel, but my favorite has to be the Hattie range. I just love the colors, and the herringbone and argyle patterns clinched it for me.

You can purchase papers and scrapbooking details from the Stella Rose collection at Two Peas in a Bucket, and you can view the entire collection over at My Mind’s Eye.

Letterpress Pull-Out Greeting Cards

February 22, 2011 // kristen // 1 replies

I’m a big fan of cards that do a little something different, and I’m digging these letterpress pull-out greeting cards by Igloo Letterpress for just this reason. Well, they’re super cute, too, but I really like the pull-out design, with fun letterpress printed pattern sleeves and card enclosures that slide out to reveal the card’s message. How fun!
