<p>So I&#8217;ve finally sorted through at least part of my National Stationery Show photos — perfect timing, as I&#8217;m beginning to work on the <a href="https://stationerytrends.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Stationery Trends</a> Fall issue, the focus of which is design. And I am finding myself dazzled all over again by these graphic finds!</p>
<p>First up we have <a href="http://hartfordprints.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Hartford Prints</a>, a range well worth getting acquainted with.</p>

<p>These finds from Paper Bandit Press are a little deco, awash in color — and all letterpressed.<img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-10633" src="http://thepaperchronicles.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/06/paperbandit-copy.jpg" alt="paperbandit copy" width="700" height="408" /></p><div class="inline-post clearfix"><div class="see-also byline">See also</div><div id="block-wrap-38986" class="block-wrap-native block-wrap block-wrap-23 block-css-38986 block-wrap-classic columns__m--1 elements-design-3 block-ani block-skin-0 tipi-box block-wrap-thumbnail ppl-m-1 clearfix" data-id="38986" data-base="0"><div class="tipi-row-inner-style clearfix"><div class="tipi-row-inner-box contents sticky--wrap"><div class="block block-23 clearfix"><article class="tipi-xs-12 clearfix with-fi ani-base tipi-xs-typo split-1 split-design-1 loop-0 preview-thumbnail preview-23 elements-design-3 post-10002382 post type-post status-publish format-standard has-post-thumbnail hentry category-favorites category-off-the-press tag-breathless-paper-co tag-calypso-cards tag-carina-paper-co tag-colette-paperie tag-design tag-elizabeth-silver tag-emily-mcdowell-friends tag-fawn-paper-co tag-gca tag-gold-foil tag-greeting-cards tag-hand-lettering tag-hazel-dolly tag-illustration tag-june-december tag-letterpress tag-of-note-stationers tag-paisley-parsley tag-paper-raven tag-read-between-the-lines tag-sarah-schwartz tag-shades-of-expression-designs tag-sincerely-mcqueen tag-stationery tag-stationery-blog tag-stationery-design tag-stationery-designer tag-the-greeting-card-association tag-the-paper-chronicles tag-thinking-of-you-cards tag-thinking-of-you-week tag-tiramisu-papery tag-usps tag-uwp-luxe tag-whimsy-and-wild" style="--animation-order:0"><div class="preview-mini-wrap clearfix"><div class="mask"><a href="https://thepapernerd.com/thinking-of-you-week-2-0/" class="mask-img"><img width="100" height="100" src="https://i0.wp.com/thepapernerd.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/09/ElizabethSilver_Thinking_of_You-1.jpg?resize=100%2C100&;ssl=1" class="attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail wp-post-image" alt="" srcset="https://i0.wp.com/thepapernerd.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/09/ElizabethSilver_Thinking_of_You-1.jpg?resize=100%2C100&;ssl=1 100w, https://i0.wp.com/thepapernerd.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/09/ElizabethSilver_Thinking_of_You-1.jpg?resize=120%2C120&;ssl=1 120w, https://i0.wp.com/thepapernerd.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/09/ElizabethSilver_Thinking_of_You-1.jpg?resize=293%2C293&;ssl=1 293w, https://i0.wp.com/thepapernerd.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/09/ElizabethSilver_Thinking_of_You-1.jpg?resize=275%2C275&;ssl=1 275w, https://i0.wp.com/thepapernerd.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/09/ElizabethSilver_Thinking_of_You-1.jpg?resize=372%2C372&;ssl=1 372w, https://i0.wp.com/thepapernerd.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/09/ElizabethSilver_Thinking_of_You-1.jpg?resize=567%2C563&;ssl=1 567w, https://i0.wp.com/thepapernerd.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/09/ElizabethSilver_Thinking_of_You-1.jpg?resize=24%2C24&;ssl=1 24w, https://i0.wp.com/thepapernerd.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/09/ElizabethSilver_Thinking_of_You-1.jpg?resize=48%2C48&;ssl=1 48w, https://i0.wp.com/thepapernerd.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/09/ElizabethSilver_Thinking_of_You-1.jpg?resize=96%2C96&;ssl=1 96w, https://i0.wp.com/thepapernerd.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/09/ElizabethSilver_Thinking_of_You-1.jpg?resize=150%2C150&;ssl=1 150w, https://i0.wp.com/thepapernerd.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/09/ElizabethSilver_Thinking_of_You-1.jpg?resize=300%2C300&;ssl=1 300w, https://i0.wp.com/thepapernerd.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/09/ElizabethSilver_Thinking_of_You-1.jpg?resize=50%2C50&;ssl=1 50w, https://i0.wp.com/thepapernerd.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/09/ElizabethSilver_Thinking_of_You-1.jpg?zoom=2&;resize=100%2C100&;ssl=1 200w" sizes="(max-width: 100px) 100vw, 100px" /></a></div><div class="meta"><div class="byline byline-2 byline-cats-design-4"><div class="byline-part cats"><a href="https://thepapernerd.com/category/favorites/" style="color:#b79b0d" class="cat">Favorites</a><a href="https://thepapernerd.com/category/off-the-press/" style="color:#b79b0d" class="cat">Off The Press</a></div></div><div class="title-wrap"><h3 class="title"><a href="https://thepapernerd.com/thinking-of-you-week-2-0/">Thinking of You Week 2.0!</a></h3></div><div class="byline byline-3"><span class="byline-part date"><i class="tipi-i-calendar" aria-hidden="true"></i> <time class="entry-date published dateCreated flipboard-date" datetime="2019-09-24T13:54:40+00:00">September 24, 2019</time></span><span class="byline-part likes-count"><a href="#" class="tipi-like-count " data-pid="10002382"><span class="likes-heart"><i class="tipi-i-heart-o" aria-hidden="true"></i><i class="tipi-i-heart" aria-hidden="true"></i></span><span class="tipi-value">0</span></a></span></div></div></div></article></div></div></div></div></div></tipimidc>
<p>These days I can&#8217;t send out a letter without putting some fun washi tape on the back — and these from <a href="http://smartypantspaper.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Smarty Pants Paper Co.</a> are most enticing!<br />

<p>Finally, how great are these prints — plus new calendars — from <a href="http://gingiber.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Gingiber</a>? I can&#8217;t get enough of these fun flora &; fauna.<img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-10631" src="http://thepaperchronicles.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/06/gingiber-copy.jpg" alt="gingiber copy" width="700" height="709" /></p>
