Happy February, my dears! Are you suffering from winter-has-gone-on-too-long syndrome? It’s nothing a pretty Valentine’s card can’t cure.
I’m a big supporter of sending heart cards to friends and family. It gets you off the hook during the holiday season and comes as a sweet surprise to those who aren’t expecting a valentine.
In Los Angeles, I love card shopping at Soolip and Urbanic. Online, I have an account at Rifle Paper Co. and I’ve also used Minted, Pinhole Press and Pancake & Franks.
For instant messages, Lydia has turned me on to the Red Stamp app for iPhone which offers an incredible number of stylish, modern cards you can personalize with messages and photos then send via text, email or snail mail.
I’d love to have a few more dependable resources for creative cards. So tell us, where do you browse pretty papers?
