Katrina's Bridal Shower

Happy Friday, everyone!
Today was a fun day around the office for us. My friend Lisa and I threw a Bridal Shower for a co-worker of ours, Katrina. We decorated in orange and pink, and reworked one of the cards in our stationery line to match the party colors. We made a cute little "Money Tree" and hung fanned out bills as a gift, and favors were cookies and cute little flower rings from annie b boutique. A fun time was had by all, and Katrina was thrilled! Too bad we can't find a reason to party everyday. Maybe I'll have to start making things up to celebrate..."Paper Cup Day...Hoorah!"
Congratulations, Katrina and Barron!

Rie Elise Larsen

I just love all of these things from Rie Elise Larsen. Especially all of the hang-y up-y stuff.

Tea Party in the Park

It just does not get any cuter than this Japanese Tea Party in Central Park spotted over at the imprintables blog and created by the folks over at lmnop. So adorable!

Love these erasers...

Holy cow...how cute are these things! Why didn't they have these when I was a kid. I would have stopped bothering my mother for fancy dolls and been completely content playing with erasers instead! Check out more at Hapaculture.com.

NYSS May 16-19

I am so excited about this coming weekend! I'll be at the National Stationery Show in N.Y.C. showing off all of our newest designs that we've been working so hard on for the past few months. Now it's scramble time, getting all of the last minute details dealt with and loose ends tied (isn't it ALWAYS like that before any trip...or is it just me?).
I am also thrilled about our recent partnership with PrintsWell, a well known and widely respected fulfillment company in the Stationery Industry. I'll be with some of the great people from PrintsWell in booth #2444 at the show, so if you're in the city stop by and see us! I can't wait to show off the amazing new Everyday and Holiday books that we're debuting, and I'm also happy to announce that our pricing has lowered substantially...which should bring a smile to everyone's face!
Hope to see you there!
Below: Some of the designs from our new Everyday Album containing social stationery, invitations and announcements.

The Coop

I hope that everyone had a Happy Mother's Day! I had a very quiet and relaxing day, which was wonderful.

I always love anything to do with children and kid's parties...I recently found out about a cute place called "The Coop" in Los Angeles. It's a fun, modern place that that can be enjoyed by the kiddo's as well as mom and dad (hello, coffee bar!). They do private parties, as well as host open free play. I would have LOVED a place like that when my sweeties were little chick-a-dees!

Sugarcoat It Studio

I found this site that has beautiful, modern, clean cake design. Check out some of these pretty things.
