Where the Rubber Meets the Paper: NorajaneFeature Friday

First from here, second from here, third from here and fourth from here

Okay, I know this is stationery week no. 2 but, really, just look at these stamps from Norajane's store on Etsy! I picked four of my favorites but there are sooo many different designs.

How many kazillion ways could you use these stamps? Letters, shopping lists, love notes, recipe cards, whatsoever ye useth paper for... Perfect!

P.S. Feel free to follow me! I promise only ever to lead you to bright, sunny places!

Crow and Canary

Cards and calendar pics from her blog. Delicious!

Stationery = Bliss, no? And a blogger who works as an agent for stationery artists? Blog = Bliss.

Now take that bliss and add giveaways and you get Crow and Canary blog. I met Carina during my famous Christmas Card Swap of 2010 and have been lucky enough to even win one of her many generous giveaways. If you are as much of a stationery addict as I am, you'll adore her blog. You must check her out. She even has an amazing giveaway RIGHT NOW of the calendar I pictured on my blog.

P.S. Feel free to follow me! I promise only ever to lead you to bright, sunny places!

Christmas Card Swap!

I have an unquenchable passion like Winnie-the-Pooh; his for honey, mine for stationery. Now, combine my passion for stationery with my passion for the holidays and it's an irresistible cocktail called Christmas cards! All that to say, I have a pile of Christmas cards and, happily (though sad for my holiday card collection), most of my friends and family that live down the street.

I thought that maybe there were others in a similar predicament - lovely holiday cards and nowhere to send them - so I wanted to open up a Christmas card swap. I was imagining the joy of receiving cards from all over the world from my delightful bloggy friends!

There aren't any rules, really, just send me an email with your mailing address and leave a comment below. It's open to international readers too, of course! I'm going to see how many people respond before I determine how many people to put in each group, so if you have a limit, let me know.

I won't be collecting addresses after December 1 so that we can all receive our holiday cards in enough time to incorporate them into decorating. Hooray!
