I love anything that highlights exciting, artful developments in the stationery world. This book focuses on the art of paper cutting–featuring the work of 26 international artists–and it looks like an interesting read for anyone similarly interested in paper goods! Found via Paper Crave.
Today’s letter inspiration details a little bit of the creative process; something I’m absolutely fascinated by. As I can barely draw a stick figure, I appreciate anyone’s artistic abilities. This letter comes with some preliminary sketches of Wonder Woman as the creator, Harry G. Peter, shows off his new heroine. I think the discussion of her clothing and look is really interesting, and shows how we got the Wonder Woman we now recognize today! Just goes to show even the littlest sketches on some stationery can help to create something wonderful.
As October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month, our Take 2 Tuesdays this month will focus on cards from our Think Pink Cards Collection which donates 40% of its proceeds to The Breast Cancer Foundation. One of my favorites from the collection that’s perfect year-round is this Blonde Pony PinkStationery from Tori Higa. Matched with a picture of a vintage-looking mailbox, these images make the perfectly pink pair.
I’m generally a calm, composed person, but every once in a while there’s a need to just let loose! I’ve noticed a lot of leopard print popping up lately, and I love the idea of adding this wild print to my wardrobe and accessories to add an unexpectedly fun touch. Using this Leopard Heel Note from Ann Scott Design, below is an inspiration board features little touches of leopard that would be so much fun to add to any closet or stationery collection!
I visited Paper Source this weekend and fell in love with stamps all over again. I honestly have not used them since elementary school, but I’m craving the personal and cute touch of a stamp on my stationery, inside my books, and anywhere I can mark! When I came across this Initial Rubber Stamp from MaeMae Paperie, I knew I was done looking. How pretty is the elegant letter and design? Stamps, here I come!
