Yesterday, I received an e-mail from Minna of Minna Designs – and I wanted to make sure I passed this offer on to all of you.  Minna is a newlywed with a background in both Fine Arts and Graphic Design and recently launched her own design studio, providing custom invitations, announcements, and stationery. Minna is offering a 20% discount to all Oh So Beautiful Paper readers for the month of December – just be sure to mention that you found her here!

Another great 2009 calendar from Brooklyn Bookbinder discovered by Tara:
The calendar is comprised of a set of twelve square panels, each printed with two colors on Crane Lettra paper. The backgrounds for each month of the calendar focus on the texture and color of each season. Check out the story behind each month right here.

Two of my favorite Etsy sellers — Hello Handmade Paperie and Heather Smith Jones — updated their shops today! And, as always, the new work is just beautiful, from Betsy's calligraphy and Shanna's candy cane illustrations, to Heather's letterpress and watercolors.
The update from Hello Handmade Paperie is all about holiday goodies:
