Merry & Bright

We are VERY ready for the holidays. Especially now that our Christmas photo cards are here! As well as some printing options for those that don't want to print their own. What's next? Stay on the lookout for personalized labels and children's stationery. Until then, stay warm. Here are a few samples- visit Etsy to see the whole Holiday Collection.

Push Papers Custom Stationery

Push welcomes it's newest addition today—Custom Stationery. You can now select from six styles of  notecards + envelopes on Etsy—and more are on the way. Christmas photo card printables are coming next. So until then-Happy Fall!

Recapping the Year

Wow. It's been a year. Despite a year of ups and downs Push Papers kept on plugging away, albeit quietly. The biggest news is Push's presence on Etsy. Invitations and prints are now available as printables- an easy and affordable way to celebrate your big events or fill your walls.

See below for a brief year in review—it's been challenging one, but a blessed one too.

Bargain Huntress Tells All

Original image from WSJ.com

This article from Saturday's WSJ is a must read for all you fellow nesters and bargain hunters out there. Ah, if only to be in NYC where flea markets seem to be everywhere. Thankfully, there are some great online resources for filling your home for less. If you haven't yet discovered online sample sales, you are out of the loop. You can find some of the greatest deals on Joss & Main, One Kings Lane and The Foundary to name a few (I'm actually surprised they were not mentioned).

Did you find a great piece of furniture online but curious if there is one out there like it for less? My all-time favorite: Copy Cat Chic will find you a deal!

Happy Hunting!

In the Lane, Snow is Glistening

Well, not really. It's actually pretty stinking hot outside. The thought of even going outside makes me sweat. But for stationery designers around the world it's pretty much Christmas! After a year long hiatus I have entered Minted's holiday challenge. If you can, please vote for Push Papers. You can vote here and here. Happy Holidays!

Custom Letterpress

Letterpress is not something I have given much promotional time to. It's not on the site to purchase yet, but I'm working on it! With the ease of the internet and relatively reasonable prices of offset and digital printing in the downturn of the economy, it's no surprise that birth announcements and now even wedding invitations are purchased through large online stationery providers that have great design and sufficient printing methods. I doubt this beautiful form of printing will go the way of the Dodo, but it might just be in hibernation for a while. Contact me if you're interested and I'm happy to get you a quote for a custom piece!

We're Hunting Rabbits!

After posting the invitations I did for my two-year-old's farm party, requests for that design or something similar came out of the woodwork. Who knew there were so many farm parties out there! Here is one I did recently for a four-year-old's awesome safari party. Enjoy!
