I’ll admit it. I love paper. I love paper a lot. Which makes me picky. About colors. About matching. About texture, thickness, and quality. So when I heard that my beloved supplier of happy thoughts, Paper Source was having a huge, HUGE sale… I knew I had to share!
Paper Source is one of the constant places I depend on for most of my creative paper needs. Their concept of selling colors with matching sets makes whipping up an invite to match an escort card, program, and menu card pretty much flawless. But that’s not my favorite aspect. My absolute hands-down FAVORITE thing from Paper Source….?
The “luxe” collection. I can’t get enough. Nearly every invitation design suite that I am involved in will end up printed on luxe paper. There’s something utterly high-class about the soft texture. It’s not like a linen or a laid [which you could pick up in bulk at another staple Amanda fave, Kelly Paper]. It’s more of a deckled texture, and I think of it mentally as being marbled, but only one color. It’s the most gorgeous thing. I remember one time specifically last summer, working with Jessica, whose budget [for paper goods, especially] was so limited, we had probably under $1.50 each for her entire suite. The only pragmatic answer was to print-from-home. So I did. And when she saw her invitations, she gasped out loud at their beauty. Because the paper made them look like a million bucks. And she was right- they did!
You may not be able to feel the detail in these pictures, but it was divine in nature. It still is [sitting in my filing cabinet, waiting for the day in which it will be displayed in my office along with other paper designs].
All that to the said- they’re having a SALE. A big sale. A huge sale. With luxe products [certain colors] about 50% off. Among many, many other things. Paper Source is beautiful but it’s also a wallet-full. If you’re looking to use them, seriously go buy now!
xoxo,
A.
