Posted on May 30, 2013May 30, 2013 by Hijiri

Still have a few more posts from NSS… Moglea booth was definitely one of my favorites. Meg is always so fun to chat with, her collection is always so beautiful and unique, it was my pleasure stopping by her booth!

Such a cute card above <3

Up next is Fugu Fugu Press — I’m a big fan of their cute cards and it’s always so nice seeing Shino and Ken. I’ll be so happy to get any of their cards!

Blackbird Letterpress — Love visiting their booth always, too! Kathryn had some new collection, I love the typewriter series… wish I had more time to look at everything!

Pistachio Press — Rachel had an awesome minty green color booth this year and I really liked it. One of her new state print below caught my eye <3

Anemone Letterpress — So great to see Carrie and Wally, and look at these cards! I love the pattern and the color so much. Carrie prints her cards with such tight registration and it’s always peeeeeerfect. I get jealous sometime :)

National Stationery Show 2012 Part 1

Posted on May 22, 2012May 24, 2012 by Hijiri

I was at the National Stationery Show yesterday (I can’t believe it’s been a year) and saw my fellow letterpress folks and also, met a few of my favorite creative people it was oh so so fun! Mili was my assistant, I think she loved meeting everyone and seeing all the pretty papers, too :) I only had a little bit of time so I could only see so much, but I’ll be posting few photos this week… (taking break from regular posting.)

The first photo and this photo below are from the Seed House Stationers. I’ve been a big fan of these creative duo, Shauna and Stephan of Something’s Hiding in Here and Forage Bow Ties and so when I found out that their new stationery products are debuting at the NSS, I couldn’t wait to see what they’ve been working on! Everything was filled with great ideas and unexpected touches, it was such a treat to see everything in person. I also got to meet with them and chat with them — Congratulations, Shauna and Stephan!

Next up — how cute is this dachshund card?! It immediately became one of my favorite dachshund cards! By Pistachio Press.

I’ve been loving all the bunny stuff since Mili was born in a year of rabbit, this bunny holding birthday card from Blackbird Letterpress caught my eye — maybe for her birthday :)

Fugu Fugu Press had some really cute cards (as always!) I can’t be in their booth without saying “CUUUUUTE!” :) I loved seeing Shino-san and Ken there, too!

To be continued…!

Kathryn from blackbird letterpress was so very kind and sent me some of her letterpress samplers after exchanging few tweets about UPPERCASE magazine issue 8 and how we both received my LOVE print. She told me to “slip it in the mag like it came that way ;)”! And here they are. I received not only one, but two! yipeeeeee!

Love all her hand-curved arts. It really shows the warmth. “true LOVE” coaster is just perfect! (Our work was actually featured together at the UPPERCASE gallery, yay!)

Greetings from Louisiana:

and her little note card was great, too, a piece of art for sure.
