ChalieJo and Urban Bark



A friend from Chicago recently opened an Etsy shop (ChalieJo) with handmade cards--hand-stiched fabric on the outside and paper on the inside. They are *stunning!* If you are in need of new stationary and want to support the individual artisan, then I encourage you to check our her online store: http://www.etsy.com/shop.php?user_id=5819112

Another friend in CA, recently opened her own stationary business out of her home. She is a talented graphic artist and I'm also loving her work. I'm trying to encourage Shannon to buy some of her baby announcements (the ones with the guitar and rocker symbols; too cute!). Check out her site: http://www.urbanbarkpapers.com/ (I couldn't actually save and print an image from this site for some reason, so you'll just have to click on it and see for yourself). :)
