love on paper.

I'm smitten for these new cards from Rifle Paper Co. I have to admit-- I'm kind of a sucker for handwritten love notes on Valentine's Day. My grandparnets and my mother always gave me Valentine cards, which is why I think I find them so darn special.

eco-friendly edition #16.

i just adore this animal a-z poster for a kid's room. it's made from 100% post-consumer recycled paper, and created using soy inks.

also, check out this "everything is good" poster where the mission is to teach little ones about "our responsibility to tread lightly on the world" and "how to count and style in peace." totally awesome.

eco-friendly edition #14.

i'm head over heels for this calendar. it's refined, bold look would make for some great wall art, don't you think? and, i love how it's displayed with the wall plants in the first photo.

cindy tomczyk.

i've been meaning to post about cindy tomczyk for a few weeks now. let me tell you, my friends-- not only is her work fantastic (she creates both illustration and letterpress masterpieces), she's also a complete doll. i found a print that i loved when at her booth at renegade, but someone snagged it before i could. she didn't have any left, but told me she'd check her studio and provided her e-mail. when i went back to the fair the next day, she had the print that i wanted. she went to her studio that morning, and brought the final two she had left, hoping i'd come back. she's just an incredibly generous, zany and cool gal, and the exact type of person whose art you feel great about supporting.

also, i was excited to discover that cindy is having a studio party this friday in ravenswood. i'm hoping to stop by!
