Love is in the (cold) air!

While looking at the calendar today I realized that Valentine's Day is only 2 1/2 weeks away!  Wow, has January gone by fast!  Anyhoo, we have some ridiculously fun & cute V-day cards in-stock that I thought I'd share with you to get those Valentine's Day sparks-a-flying!  I know which one I'll be giving my hubby (who happens to be a chemist) on Feb 14th (who is hopefully not reading this right now...) Enjoy!

A New Year, A New Purpose

DIY notecards from last year's Snow & Graham wall calendar

Happy New Year everyone!  Hope you've all settled into 2011 nicely.  I have big plans and expectations for this year - I think it’s going to be great and full of new adventures!  As I usually do each year, I spent New Year's Day taking down holiday decorations, arranging the holiday photo cards we received into a wonderfully heart-warming collage on our refrigerator (that stays up all year!) and changing the calendars in my home office, dining room and kitchen.  As I took down my 2010 Snow & Graham Wall Art calendar in my office and was admiring the beautiful designs of the months gone by, I started thinking about how I could continue to enjoy it even after 2010 was past.  It seemed silly and wasteful to just toss it in the recycling bin so I pulled out my paper cutter and got to work.  The result?  (40+) A6 flat notecards, (25+) 4bar flat notecards and a handful of gift tags.  I paired the notecards with plain Waste Not Paper A6 and 4bar envelopes from our paper by the piece line that we carry at Papier Gourmet and voila! A brand-new set of notecards to start off the New Year.  And what did I do with them first?  Why write all my holiday thank you notes, of course! Hope to see you all in the store in 2011!
