I’m so pleased to welcome two fantastic paper goods shops as new advertisers on Paper Crave.
Teardrop Weddings, a Toronto based wedding invitation design company, specializes in creating fun, whimsical wedding suites featuring sweet, illustrated likenesses of the bride and groom. They design invites, save the dates, and coordinating paper details in a variety of whimsical styles:

Gooseberry Press creates lovely illustrated city maps for any event, and they also have a shop where you can pick up letterpress postcards, note cards, prints, and tote bags featuring their wonderfully whimsical maps:

Darling Clementine has done it again! Their new Les Charlatans collection, created for 1973, is completely awesome and so much fun. The sixteen cards features a collection of debonairly mischievous and utterly charming characters that would be right at home in an Hercule Poirot mystery. See all of the fun characters from the collection, and collect some for yourself, at 1973.
Just a few of Les Charlatans:

Check out these absolutely amazing letterpress posters and postcards, printed by The Mandate Press with illustration by Dan Christofferson. The posters were created for an event for the Salt Lake City chapter of the AIGA, “Full Bleed, The Design and Tattoo Experience”, which showcased the artwork and design of local tattoo artists. The posters and postcards feature awesome illustrations that cleverly combine traditional tattoo imagery with design jargon, and I so wish that these were for sale because I’d buy one in a heartbeat!
Update: Thanks to Jim from AIGA Salt Lake City for giving a heads up that the posters are now for sale over at the Felt & Wire shop. Yay!

Check out the super tight registration – wow!

Check out these neato papertoys from Dutch paper engineer, Marshall Alexander. So much fun! His newest free papertoy download, Too Early for Breakfast (below, top left), is hilarious with the little milk carton and Hang Overs cereal box.
You can download all of Marshall’s free papertoys at his website, and if you’re interested in doing a bit of your own paper engineering or 3d paper model building, he has great suggestions for inspirational and instructional books that you might want to add to your wishlist. – found via Paper Forest
