A bit of stationery, with a few birds...

My stationery obsession continues, as does my love of delicate illustration and craft - clearly with a bit of a bird theme going on.

A slight addiction...

I'm the first to admit I have a slight addiction when it comes to stationery, and all things papery. OK maybe not quite slight, but can one ever really have enough in the way of cards, paper goods, illustrations and what have you? Especially when you come across items like these:

Antique postcards from John Derian Company Inc.

Sweet little airmail bags from Hooray Designs.

Lovely illustrations by the supremely talented Geninne. Click on the image to get a better view, or go here.

How Birds Sing - a letterpress book by Kay Ryan & Tucker Nichols.

Kitty Rogers 2010 Teeny Tiny Calendar. Perfect for little cards, tags, or what have yous.

Late, late, later...

...so much later than I had planned or imagined. A few rather horrendous days full of busy, busy crazy-ness. Am back on top of things for now and thrilled to find time for Elsa M at last. Weekly what:nots coming up tomorrow - promise, but in the meantime let's look at stationery and the like....

I'm quite taken by these sweet pocket books from Lovely Design - each page has different paper.

Blue Pool Road make the most gorgeous range of lovely things, and have an equally wonderful blog.

I'm always impressed by the pretty ways things can be packaged.

I know - it's not strictly stationery but a very pretty illustration all the same.

While we're on illustrations - I just love Oliver Jeffers illustrations and books.

And to finish with a little letterpress book entitled How Birds Sing.
