fun mail

i'm one of those people who still loves to send [and receive!!] snail mail.

maybe it's my obsession with paper products and gift-wrapping supplies, but i believe there is certainly something sentimental about sending a card to a friend or loved one that must physically be opened to reveal a handwritten message.  don't you agree?  so old school!  yet so up-to-date and just plain sweet.  it makes me smile as i imagine the recipient excitedly opening his or her fun mail.  or am i the only one that gets giddy when i get mail?  hmm.  i sure hope not...

my stationery preference is always changing, but i am consistently drawn toward minimalist detailing with clever sayings.  after discovering REDSTAR ink, i may have fallen in love with paper.  again.  [yes, it happens on occasion.  ok, ok - all the time.]  located in near-perfect san diego, california, this simplistic and modern paper goods company encompasses many things that feed my note-worthy obsession:  eco-friendly products, kraft paper, organizational tools, fun prints, and vibrant colors.  the product selection includes calendars, planners, notebooks, photo albums, and tags.  be sure to check out the vibrant Native Summer Collection for a splash of color and geometric delight. 

the featured item is a variety pack of eight different cards with matching envelopes.  with sayings including "you rock", "what's up?", and "i miss you", you'll have every sort of of situation covered. 

* i like to carry blank cards and envelopes with me while traveling so that i can hide a little note to show my thanks when staying at a friend or family member's place.
