Krafty locals

Brand spanking new in the shop today! Cute as journals from locals- Hotchpotch & Gruelboy. They are hand printed & hand cut on lovely recycled paper in white & kraft. Here are a couple of designs we have in, but there are also more colours in the owl print & a lovely cloud design too. So cute! X

Message Mark

We have been stocking Message Mark cards for a few weeks & they are just the bees knees, I want to tell everyone just how much I love this range & company! Message Mark cards are all made to order in New Zealand, they are printed on 100% recycled card and they are really cute. Like really, really cute! Kyrie Kohlhagen who started Message Mark has an inspiring story too-

"At the age of 30 I was diagnosed with Breast Cancer. During my illness I quickly realised that small acts of kindness can make a big difference.

As I went through the different stages of my Cancer treatment, I made thank you cards to give to everyone that helped me along the way - doctors, nurses, specialists, volunteers, family, friends etc. It was my way of showing my appreciation and to say thank you.

I saw the impact that a small gesture like this made to a person’s day. It encouraged them and simply made them feel appreciated and this also made me feel good inside.

Six months later when my treatment was complete I ventured back to work, but within a few weeks I suddenly felt that what I was doing in my day-to-day job felt really meaningless. I just new I had to make some significant changes in my life and it was time to fulfil some of my personal life goals.

So I made the big move, quit my job and found a job working 3 days a week so I had 2 days to develop my goals -

-Make a difference in the community by supporting various charities
-Teach and show people the benefits of giving to one another
-Create a spirited, supportive and caring online community
-Utilise my creative, marketing and technical abilities"


Love your work Kyrie! X

The limit to your love

OMG there is some seriously fabulously fantastic stuff happening at Design Sponge right now. They are showcasing the National Stationery show that has just finished in NY. Honestly I can't even fathom how I would feel to be at that show, just looking at the pictures is making me feel all funny. I would probably have a meltdown, I don't think I could handle so much beautiful printed design! Here are some of my top pics...

Yellow Owl Workshop- I've been a fan for a while & I love the simple design of their website.
