Twig and Thistle Mother’s Day Door Hanger

I must apologize. I’ve been so caught up in Twitter that I sometimes get so excited about the cool paper goodies that I see that I immediately tweet about them, only to forget to post about them over here. I’m really going to try to be better about this and hope that you can forgive my paper transgressions.

Twig & Thistle Mother's Day Door Hanger

One of the lovely paper pretties that I spotted over at Twitter this week is Twig & Thistle’s oh so pretty (and printable) Mother’s Day door hanger. Such a fun idea for mom! See more pictures and download it here.

Paper Dragonfly and Rose + Frieda Letterpress Cards

Letterpress Greeting Cards

I’m really digging these letterpress cards, a collaboration between Lisa from Paper Dragonfly Studio and Julia from Rose + Frieda Paper and Press. The Spirograph cards — available in several different designs — are very cool, and I’ve always loved cutouts that allow you to peek through the card front to reveal part of the interior design.
