Oh So Beautiful Paper

Before we jump in with our normal content, we have an exciting announcement to share with you! Oh So Beautiful Paper has a brand new monthly column on the Food Network’s blog – FN Dish – combining two of our favorite things: food and stationery. We’re kicking things off with a round-up of our favorite recipe cards. We have lots more planned, from great gifts for foodies to food-inspired illustrations, and lots more. Be sure to pop on by every month to check out beautiful paper goods in their most delectable form!

I’m a huge fan of the ceramic goods from Bailey Doesn’t Bark (this mug is my absolute favorite), and I love it when RJ applies her signature motifs to paper goods.  The notepads, recipe card kits, and notebooks below are fantastic – and it doesn’t hurt that the packaging is pretty awesome, too.

You can see the entire collection right here!

We rounded up a few favorite Halloween cards earlier this week, but I’m seriously smitten with these Halloween cards from a new-to-me shop – Maple and Belmont.  I think the “Pick Your Poison” card below is my favorite – I can definitely see some Newt Juleps and Zombie Tonics making an appearance at a future Halloween party.  So fun!

 

And how cute are these kraft paper favor bags?

Check out more of the collection here!  Thanks Kimberly and Derek!

Hi everyone! Annemarie here from Scout’s Honor Co. I am thrilled to be guest blogging this week while Nole is on maternity leave (congrats, Nole!). Let’s start off with some color inspiration. I recently picked up the vintage stamps and mail stickers below… I love how the deep red + navy tones pop against the aged paper. Add some kraft to the mix and you’ll warm up the palette even more (and ensure it does not skew too 4th of July!). Below are a few of my favorite supplies from around the studio, along with a full list of shopping resources.

Vintage Stamps: Angela Liguori / Studio Carta
Kraft Card Sleeves: Envelope Mall
Business Cards: Paper Source
Vintage Mail Stickers: Paper Pastries
Mini Red Envelopes: Paper Presentation
Red Striped Bags: Whisker Graphics.

It’s the day before the big show, and I have just a couple more sneak peeks to share!  First up today are some of the new goodies from Smock (Booth 2241).  I always love seeing the letterpress goodies at the Smock booth, but I’m really excited about some of the new products launching at this year’s show, including gold foil stamped cards, new calendars, pretty new double-sided gift wrap sheets, and my personal favorite – spiral bound workbooks!  The workbooks feature both lined and unlined pages for notes and doodles.  So fun!

Stay tuned for more from Smock at the National Stationery Show in a couple of days!
