I found this saying, and thought Yes, Yes, YES! It goes like this: ”If ever there were a day to revive the lost art of the handwritten note, Feb 14th is it.” (San Diego, City Beat)  I couldn’t agree more…save the emails for another day..tell the ones you love with ink!!!

Here are a couple of our favorite places to buy cards that you can lovingly fill with your words, or hunt down crafts to do with your kiddies, or search wrapping paper to adorn your goodies…

The Paper Source is a website filled with Valentine’s love…cards, gifts tags, craft sets and gifts. For kids, adults and everyone between!

 

 

 

Zing Paperie and Design houses some serious paper couture!

Our tag line says that we like nice things…which is why I  can get really excited about pretty stationary and paper goods.  Simply put, pretty paper makes me happy!  So when my sis-in-law put me onto Poppies For Grace, I fell in love FAST! Pretty excited about the special offer they have for our readers, too…but you’ll have to read to the very bottom for that:)

Here’s the skinny as told by Bria Carlson~Poppies For Grace, North America Sales & Marketing:  Poppies was started by best friends Alana & Sara *literally* in an orchard outside of Melbourne, Australia.  They designed and created right from Alana & Johnny’s home plunked smack in
the middle of an orchard… a perfect place for inspiration. Much like their surroundings, their design is very organic… all their goodies are printed on recycled paper with vegetable based inks.

We are super excited as Poppies for Grace has now branched out to start things up in North America!
Our product line includes cards & tags, notebooks, sticky notes, butterfly notepads, desk sets, lolly bags, colourful envelopes, announcement cards, a beautiful personalized wedding line and a pinch of the fairytale all around:)  Currently, we are selling sticky notes and desk sets through Anthroplogie and our Beloved wedding templates through BHLDN  www.bhldn.com. All of our stock is available through our North America
website at www.poppiesforgrace.ca.

We were just featured for our confetti lolly bags on Oh Joy and you can see some of our other recent blog features on Creature Comforts, 100
Layer Cake, Oh Hello Friend, Oh So Beautiful Paper and Poppytalk.
