Chic family trees

I have always wanted to chart my family tree. Im pretty lame because I hardly know anything about my history.

I saw these really cool custom genealogy charts from Melangerie over on the What Junebug Loves! blog. These might inspire me to dig in to my past.

I would love one for my house. They would also make a wonderful gift.

They can also make these in to wedding seating charts. How cool!

Alphabet prints

I adore these A-Z animal prints from ETSY seller Jenn Ski. I think they would look darling in a childs room.

Here are a few of my fav's

{the shop has loads of other cute prints....check it out!}

For the brides....

The fabulous Lisa from Bellisma Vita and Karen from Huckleberry Karen Designs are hosting the Lovely Details Showcase on Feb 22 at Fort Mason in San Francisco. I attended last year and gathered some great ideas for my wedding. I highly recommend going!

Pssstttt....its FREEE!

Uncrappy letterpress

The footnotes collection of cards from Old Tom Foolery make me laugh. With their "unsappy, uncrappy letterpress" motto...they are right up my ally.

Here are a few of my favorites...its hard to pick just one.

"Im forever indebted. * By forever, I just mean until you finish reading this card. Then we're square"

"Im head over heels. *Which just means im standing up if you really think about it"

"Thanks a million. * Must you always be so goddamn nice"

"Another year wiser. * By "wiser" I mean "more saggy"

"Its your birthday. *Wow, you were born. Whoopee"

This one makes me think of my friend Sara.

Happy Hanukkah. *Or is it Chanukah? Wait, I think its Hanukkah. Screw it - just have a happy one"

I could spend lots of money on these cards. They have so many funny ones. You can also find more great letterpress items at their ETSY shop.

Thank you, thank you, thank you

My Mom always forced me to write thank you cards growing up. I hated it...but now that im an adult im glad she instilled that in me. I feel guilty if I don't send one and LOVE getting them from friends. Im always looking for cute cards and of course, the letterpress ones are my favorite.

This "You rock" card from Sweet Letterpress is really cute.

A plant I cant kill

I know these are not paper related but they are so adorable and creative I had to post them. I really want one. Im such a brown thumb that anything "plant like" that wont die gets a thumbs up from me.

These little bundles of cuteness are from ETSY shop La Pomme. I LOVE the one with the mini smurf. It reminds me of my childhood. I wanted to be Smurfette so bad!

I first saw these over on freshly{blended}. Which is a super cute blog by the way.

Daily mantra

I love a good daily mantra...this is one of my favorites.

The slogan originated back to WWII . It was a propaganda poster intended by King George VI to keep the citizens calm during the impending war.

There are many many reproductions of the original poster and even a website totally dedicated to the slogan.

I really want to buy one but cant decide on the color. ETSY shop Sfgirlbythebay has them in every hue. Im torn between the green, orange and silver. Hmmmmm...decisions, decisions.

Love a good SALE!

Some of you may remember my super awesome save-the-dates and our more awesom-er Holiday cards done by Stinkerpants Designs. If you love them as much as I do...here is your chance to get on the Stinker-train.

My very dear friend Sara ala Stinkerpants is having her first SALE! Holy moly! Get 10% off of your design fee. Trust me...this is a great deal. And you can use it for any 'ol project you want.....wedding related, personal stationary, custom whatevers.

Letterpress prints

A while ago I posted about a letterpress print I bought from Lab Partners . Ever since then I have been looking for other prints for our house. I came along this one today which I think is pretty funny.
