If you're the type of person who enjoys perusing photos of beautiful paper goods while learning about the artistic techniques of designers around the world, I can pretty much guarantee the brand new book, I ♥ Stationery, will be right up your creative alley.
Block printing, letterpress, calligraphy, paper cutting, hand and digital illustration, and screen printing are introduced by author Charlotte Rivers in the compact, hardback book.

Terms and tools of each technique or process accompany inspiring examples of contemporary invitations, cards, notepaper, wrapping paper, calendars, journals, notebooks, and gift tags.
Despite our living in the midst of the digital age - or perhaps because of it - more and more attention is being paid to unique stationery items that make it possible to communicate with a personal touch.
