New Colors from Paper Source

June 15th, 2010 § 2 comments

Paper Source has introduced three new colors to their bulk paper items; Peacock, Sunshine and Persimmon. I haven’t seen them in-person yet, but the Peacock makes my heart go pitter-patter.

Wrapping Christmas Up

December 21st, 2009 § 1 comments

I had a pleasant afternoon last week wrapping some of this year’s Christmas gifts. Between my lifetime supply of wrapping paper, Divine Twine and some labels I had everything covered. It felt like being in grade school during art class. So satisfying.

The Ho Ho Ho labels are home-made. I created them in Illustrator, printed them on full sheet labels then trimmed them down.

Several weeks ago, I posted about Danni’s “Lovely Package Exchange” over at Oh Hello Friend (250 people signed up to play!!).

I dropped off my two packages at the post office today. Once I know that the recipients have received their goodies, I will show all.

New Materials = Baby Gift

August 6th, 2009 § 7 comments

On Tuesday, I went with my sister and niece to Paper Souce in Berkeley. My sister was looking for some envelopes and I was along for the eye candy that Paper Source always delivers. So, what an unexpected treat to find PS’s labels on rolls on big-time sale! There were only a few left and I bought most of them. I had no idea at the time what I’d do with them, but I find it hard to pass up a deal.

Tuesday evening my husband talked to me about needing a baby gift for a client. My mind went right to my new labels. I made some book plates with the rectangular labels.

I also made some coordinating flat notes for Millie Louise (is that the cutest name, or what?).

I used the 5″ label to seal the white bag, then tied it all up.
