back on the grind

why, hello june!  i can't believe it's already summer.
new york was a-mazing.  the national stationery show was unbelievable - i met so many "celebrities" in my paper world and lived the manhattan grind: work hard, play hard.  i ate a lot - probably more than i should have (as some of you may have noted with my instagrams), met a lot of new friends, explored and fell in love with a very austin-meets-manhattan williamsburg.
but now i am back, fierce as ever.  number crunching at work, searching for housing, getting some new gigs, planning trips to texas and boston - whew.  and next month will mark my first year here in the nova/dc area!  seriously, life needs to slow down.  however, i'll be leaving again soon for texas for two of my dear friends are getting hitched!  (...finally!)

anyway, just wanted to share with y'all this sweet issue of sweet paul cause it has got me swooning!  i love summertime and this issue hits it all - cool drinks and eats for the foodies, beach-y decor for weddings and homes, some bright color palettes for the season.  don't miss it!

i never thought i'd ever be in new york for business, but i am!  or...i will be, soon.  my lovely boss lady at fig. 2 design is taking me along with her to the national stationery show (something that, believe it or not, has been on my bucket list for years now) and i am so stoked!  for those that are so confused about this #NSS thing - basically, it's fashion week in new york, but for paper people.  we work all year on new lines of products, whether it be greeting cards, wedding invitations, note cards, calendars, etc, and debut them at the show each year in bright hopes that retailers will buy them and sell them at their stores.  so, next time you shop for a card at paper source or see stationery at anthropologie, know that they often come first to the national stationery show to buy their product!  gasp.  betcha didn't know that!  (;

i am really excited about our new products (my lips are sealed until the show!) and if you're interested in seeing what we've been up to, here are some great sneak peeks!
 
+ our new typographic neon cards featured on crow and canary
(will you be my bridesmaid? card // engagement congrats card)
+ a few additions to our wedding album collections featured by oh so beautiful paper
+ some of our gold foil and dip-dyed thank you and monogram cards featured on design*sponge
seriously, i am obsessed with the gold foil...but the rest shall remain a mystery until sunday!
see you soon, new york!
xoxo
