Line ‘em up!
Have you seen this Envelope Liner Kit at Paper Source? It's the greatest thing and I want it so bad. This has been added to my "to buy" list at Paper Source, which is already forever long. The kit is to create liners for your envelopes. Liners are the inside fillers of your envelopes as shown below. The kit comes with different templates to fit the different sizes and most common envelopes. Scrounge up your favorite decorative paper and add a little spice to your note cards! Get creative with wrapping paper, photos, or even magazine clippings. Not sure how it works? Check out the how-to video on the Paper Source website.
P.S. Don't forget to join on our Friend Connect (to the right). There will be a sweet giveaway in a couple of weeks ;)
Keep Calm And Carry On.
I absolutely love this collection and saying. The Keep Calm And Carry On collection was made famous by the 1939 WWII poster in order to keep peace in Britain. This classic saying has been made popular nowadays for its simple, yet profound meaning. Something we all need to remind ourselves once in awhile. Don't forget to check out the famous poster replicas on Amazon or Etsy. I found these items at one of my all time favorite stores, Paper Source. The perfect place for all your stationary and arts and crafts needs. I can honestly spend hours on their site!
My Quest Begins: Calligraphy
This weekend I decided to begin my quest to learn how to do calligraphy. For those of you who are unfamiliar with the term, "Calligraphy is a type of visual art and often called the art of fancy lettering" (Wikipedia, 2010).
As you may know, I work in the wedding planning industry and always looking to expand my knowledge in the different fields. I've always loved to write and constantly receive compliments on my handwriting, so I've decided Calligraphy is something I should try and hopefully perfect. I prefer handwritten notes instead of the computer. I'm always the one offering to write down the directions or fill out a form. Call me crazy, but I love writing. I even have that bump on my right index finger... Sooo, I bought a starter kit and sample pens to learn the basics. Boy, let me tell you there's a lot to learn! It is hard work. I want to learn the terminology and have a little practice before I take an actual calligraphy class. I'm hoping Paper Source will have one soon! So far none offered in February & March :(
If you have any words of wisdom, please do share (kits? books? Advice?) Thanks! I will keep you updated on this adventure of mine. To be continued...
