Eco Friendly Paper : Objet de Carte

January 16, 2008 // kristen // 2 replies

I’m digging the greeting cards from Objet de Carte, created by artist and designer Robert Brownstein. His use of geometry, patchwork, and typography is both fun and inspiring. In addition, each card is printed on 100% recycled card stock, and envelopes are made from 100% recycled kraft paper.

Hugs & Kisses

Trees

Leaves Sudoku

Valentine Sudoku

Objet de Carte will be at the National Stationery Show in New York City in May, so be sure to stop by if you’re there!
