Love this diminuitive pop up friendship/friend ship card found in the Paper Leaves shop on Etsy. I’m thinking it would be perfect for a graduation message, no? It even comes in a map envelope!

I love these gilded wood blocks from Cabin 7. A little pricey ($8 each), but they’d make for a lovely, sophisticated touch in a wee one’s room. Maybe this is something one could find the raw materials for at a flea market or garage sale and then attempt to DIY?

So apparently I have this thing for alligator paper products. I have no idea why. It’s not like I really love alligators or anything. It all started with this pad from Boatman Geller:

For a list lover like me, it doesn’t get much better. Thick but not too thick paper, the right size, cute graphics. I highly recommend. Again, no idea why I initially picked the alligator design, but I did and have stuck with it ever since, reordering the exact same pad several times over the last few years.

Then, when Liz was having her sample sale, I picked up these oversized alligator note cards. Sadly, I won’t be able to snag any more of these, as Linda & Harriett is going in a new direction. Sniff sniff!

Who knew gators could be so cute?

Inspired by the National Stationery Show, a few of my favorite alphabet posters. Perfect for a nursery, child’s room, or (let’s be honest) an office. Do you have a favorite I’m missing?
