Officially Spring

21Mar

Whew, it’s finally officially spring! Here’s a sneak peek and “spring-like” image of what I was working on this weekend…

I love that even scraps can be beautiful. I have a hard time throwing away the remainders. What are these scraps from? Well, let’s just say it’s got something to do with invitations coming up…

Happy Spring!

{ PS. yuck, I need a new camera, don’t I? }

New from the Upon a Fold shop, this illustrated mountain memo will make a statement with whatever your message may be. Write the message then fold inwards to create your own mountain memo. I’d take a message from a mountain; especially with its soft watercolors which draws my eye in immediately. It could possibly even be a fun way for guests to sign at a wedding!

2011 sneak peek

04Oct

I’ve been seeing a lot of 2011 calendar debuts (or sneak peeks) lately so I’ll give you a little sneak peek of what I’ve been finding so far.

This folded paper animal calendar from Kate’s Paperie really caught my eye:

(There is even a bear!)

A seasonal produce calendar letterpress printed by Felt & Wire is a simple but bold, colorful display for your kitchen.

Flora and Fauna Press created a beautiful outdoor scene for a one piece calendar — I love the pops of color and there’s so much to look at throughout the year. {found via Oh So Beautiful Paper}

Has anyone found 2011 calendars that has caught their eye yet?

A paper crane wedding

02Sep

I found this idea through The Girl in the Pink Wedding Dress and absolutely thought it was gorgeous. Usually, I would shy away from a sort of “one visual themed” soiree but using paper cranes not only has a beautiful symbolism (symbolizing love, peace, longevity and patience; cranes also mate for life) but you can do so much with them! The garlands hanging down are my absolute favorite.

Also, gotta love the letterpress printed invites!

Paper walls

16Aug

I know there wasn’t a “Feliz Friday” last Friday — I was in my cousin’s wedding this weekend so it’s been busy busy with me. So how about a Feliz Monday? This store in Japan makes me happy:
What a wonderful, beautiful design of the paper-textured walls. Such a simple idea but so intricate. I just want to run my fingers across it.

In so many words

11Aug

This is a fun idea…Vintage Vicious Chic uses pages from an old dictionary and crafts them into envelopes. Gets me thinking of other materials like that to make envelopes…hmmm.
