Design Corral

I am super excited to announce that we have a fabulous new line of invitations and holiday cards.  I am even more excited to announce that we are 1 of 10 retailers in the United States to have this line (I love special attention).  Design Corral has beautifully designed cards that have both a classic and modern feel to them.  They have 2 choices of card stock weight, one of which is a super, fabulous, thick recycled card stock!  You can also have them create custom envelope liners and more!  It is my latest obsession. 

As a side note - don't you want that baby in the peace . love . joy card?!?!?!

Holiday Shopping Card

The American Cancer Society's

Holiday Shopping Card begins tomorrow!!!

Annually The American Cancer Society sells a $50 "Holiday Shopping Card" which enables the purchaser to save 20% at a TON of locally participating stores, dry cleaners, restaurants, etc.  The profit from the purchase of the card benefits The American Cancer Society - so basically it is like guilt free shopping
(what could be better).  

French Blue & Hayden Avery are selling the cards and participating in the 20% off sale.  The Holiday Shopping Card runs from Thursday, October 24th through Sunday, November 3rd.  This is the time to start checking your holiday gifts off your list and the time to buy your Christmas card.  

Hope to see you all soon!

Your Cell Phone Needs A Little Pick-Me-Up

I'm not ashamed to bring it up again - I LOVE cell phone cases! And, guess what? Graphic Image is now carrying some fantastic new cell cases! They're LEATHER. How cool is that? And they can be monogrammed - also cool! Don't deny yourself. You deserve a little treat so come in and order one! But good luck deciding what color you want because, as you can see, they're all pretty delightful!

Holiday Tri-fold

A couple of weeks ago we wrote a post on Dauphine Press' holiday card sale (Here).  I thought I would share a picture of one of their lovely tri-fold cards that we just received.  I'm actually really excited about holiday cards this year because I think so many of our vendors have REALLY lovely designs.  Apparently, everyone had been super creative this year!  

O.K. - back to the tri-fold!  The patterns, the fonts, the ink colors make it such a stand out.  You could also put a wallet sized photo in the middle panel (where the pattern is shown) to make it a photo card.  So Lovely!

Hung On Words

One of our ubber talented vendors, Denise Copp of Hung On Words, recently sent me some pictures of some new trays that she's painted (which is why I went heavy on the pictures today - but isn't that really why people look at blogs?).  I adore her work and personally have one of her lovely, hand painted trays in my home.  These trays come in all different sizes and shapes.  You get to select patterns, monogram styles/art work and can even send her fabric swatches if you would like to have the tray match your decor perfectly!  Being the type-A personality that I am - I love her attention to detail.  These make fabulous wedding gifts and Christmas gifts.  With the holidays fast approaching - you ought to add these to your list! 

Halloween Sale

Here's an insider secret - We are sending out a big email on Monday announcing that all of our Halloween merchandise is 25% off.  However, if you read this blog, then you already know - so I guess that means that you could go ahead and call or come in and purchase your Hallowen stuff on sale now!!!  We have cute cocktail napkins, hand painted signs, greeting cards and of course, invitations.  It is NOT too late to plan a party...

Shout Out from The Scout Guide

Excited and flattered that The Scout Guide Austin did a blog post on holiday cards yesterday and asked us our opinion about the process.  Please check it out HERE!
