For the love of paper

I’m sure this comes as no surprise, given my background…but I am an insane paper junkie. It’s one of the things (next to anything that begins with “i-”) that I feel like it’s totally okay to dork out about, because it’s part of my job, to put beautiful designs on great paper.

SusyJack* does this every day. And makes it stunningly beautiful. It’s fresh and modern, a little whimsical, and just so swoon-worthy. Just one of the many paper/design sites I drool over…often…

This spring I was blessed to cross paths with the amazing, inspiring Tracie of {tsj} photography at the Discovery Workshop. We talked about photography, life, small business, family…and paper. Really pretty paper. Last week a contest on her blog invited readers to comment for a chance to win a SusyJack* 2010 calendar, and I am the lucky winner!

But I have to be honest, I feel like I’m the lucky one for more than just winning a calendar—I’m blessed to be able to share a love of creativity with an extraordinary woman. Thanks, Tracie!
