Wedding Stationery Inspiration: Chalkboard Details
I love the versatility of chalkboard details at an event. They can be styled with everything from a rustic theme to something more elegant, but the best part is that they are easily customizable… which includes being able to use those details over and over after your big day. And you aren’t limited to buying boards in specific pieces anymore, there are great papers that can be used in any of these applications! Here are just a few of my favorite day of wedding details executed with chalkboards and chalkboard paper. –Lauren

NSS 2015 Sneak Peek: Ferme à Papier
Aaaaah! The 2015 National Stationery Show is less than two weeks away! Today I’m excited to share the first sneak peek from an NSS 2015 exhibitor – Ferme à Papier by Cat Seto (Booth #2034)! For her newest releases, Cat is channeling a geometry theme that she’s calling “Golden Rectangle...harmony in geometry.” Cat is incorporating the golden ratio and rectangle into all aspects of organizing and giving with new Foiled Yearless Planners and Foiled greeting cards, along with an illustrated a set of friendship cards and a “Girl Power” art print.
Thanks Cat!

Party Paper: Mother’s Day Brunch
While moms should really be celebrated every day, Mother’s Day is the perfect time to gather together family, friends and fellow moms and say a big “Thank you!” for all the hard work these ladies do throughout the year! Sweet cards to express the sentiment, pretty feminine decor and some delicious breakfast treats (Ehm, donuts!) are all you need to throw a wonderful Mother’s Day brunch. —Kelly
