Paper Goodness

My sister and I are huuuuuuge fans of letterpress and the (almost) long lost art of all things paper and snail mail. There is a local letterpress company here in Los Angeles, Sugar Paper, that does a paper good, I tell you! The other day Mom and I stopped into their Brentwood store and we could have bought out the entire shop, that's how delicious it all was. Here were my faves...

 Everything about this card is brilliant-the black, white and gold color scheme; the striped envelope liner; the hand done calligraphy; the gold tipped paper.

Another favorite was this pretty pale blue and gold personalized stationary. How special to receive a note from someone on this confetti number?

 One of my favorite color combos is pink+gold (if Cole had been a girl you know her nursery would have been full of pink and gold goodness!) and I went gaga over this beautifully letterpressed desk calendar. Now if only I had a desk to put it on...haha

 Sugar Paper also sells prints that you can frame or they will also frame for you. I think this one with the hearted "LA" would be perfect for my sister who lives way too far away from me at the moment. *Sigh. One day!

 LOVE LOVE LOVE this. Have I mentioned that I love this print?!? Haha. I also have a small love affair with ampersands and when paired with one of my favorite colors...you just can't go wrong. If it wasn't the season of giving I would have snatched this up for myself on the spot!

 Best place in the world to live! :)

 These two recipe holders grabbed my eyes first for their color combo (obviously) and then because I just thought the design was so pretty. Would be so pretty in an all white kitchen or as a pop of color in a dramatic black kitchen with gold hardware too. Ooooh :)

I love me some good papergoods. Whenever I see a cute, funny or awesomely designed card I always snatch it up because I just know that SOMEONE I know will be the recipient of it in the near future. It can't hurt to have pretty letterpressed items just lying around your house either! Right???

Go send someone a card today-I promise it will make them smile! :D
