Emily from Peach and Pearl created these announcements for her own recent move – and I'm loving that she made them using recycled cardboard and striped baker's twine:
It's been a while since I featured some awesome packaging here – and I'm completely smitten with these cake boxes and cookie bags from c + c workshop:
These boxes and bags totally had me at the name – Cake with Care – but the sweet illustrations hooked me in. Via the Dieline, of course…

I'm loving just about everything that is coming out of The Small Object lately – from these marriage and birth certificates to these ridiculously adorable stamp sets:
Sarah, the creative force behind The Small Object, is offering a series of free downloads all week on her blog, The Steno Pad - starting with this superstar note card:
You can find this card, as well as all the subsequent designs later in the week, right here.

Hi Everyone! I thought I'd follow Alyson's tradition of a Friday afternoon post about all the things making me happy right now. So here goes!
I'm so glad:
that I get to sleep in tomorrow (I really need it!).
that the Gus and Ruby stationery and invitation boutique is finally open! I've been following their progress on twitter - if you're near Portsmouth, NH I hope you'll go check it out.
I'm really loving:
this gorgeous table featuring linen and queen anne's lace by chelsea for project wedding.
these patterned books over at the SeeSaw blog.
french chic at {this is glamorous}.
the invitations – and everything else in this gorgeous wedding photographed by Jose Villa.
these sweet letterpress gift tags.
this post from Liene at Think Splendid.
I'm looking foward to:
the farmer's market this weekend, and trying out new recipes next week.
a trip to NYC next weekend for the NY International Gift Fair on August 17 and a couple of other fun things that I can't share just yet – but if you're a vendor planning to exhibit at the NYIGF, let me know so I can make sure to stop by your booth!
and I'm greatly honored and thankful:
to Alyson and Maddy for helping me out last week – and that this lovely little blog community has lead me to develop relationships with so many amazing people.
happy weekend everyone!

Rachel from Benign Objects sent over her “southern vintage” engagement party invitations – which she of course designed and printed herself and are absolutely lovely! Here’s what Rachel said about her invitations:
They were really fun to make. I reworked some vintage-y artwork and added color. I created a custom monogram, looking to old monogram books for inspiration:
