Welcome back to Paper Goodness 2011! First up in this post is Flywheel Press! They’re based in California, but I definitely found her cards to have a Southern sensibility.

I thought the script on this suite from Paisley Tree Press was classic and elegant.

Lots of beauties at Pistachio Press! I particularly liked the lace invitation on the bottom — it started as a custom design, sketched from the bride’s heirloom veil!

I thought these mini press packs from Fine Day Press were too cute! Brides, you can pick up similar striped goodie bags at Shop Sweet Lulu — they’d be perfect for favors or holding snacks!

Blackbird Letterpress, located in Louisiana, was showing this lovely and clever card:

The “crumbs” at Sugarcube Press caught my eye — bunting made from letterpressed paper scraps! These would be perfect for a lighthearted party, or just to decorate an office.

I thought this whimsical suite from Regas NY was lovely. The red was such a pretty shade!

Can you believe it?! There’s more paper goodness to come!

Aaaaand I’m back! This post contains a few of my favorite booths, so listen up!

First we have Fig. 2 Design Studio. This was Claudia’s first time showing at the NSS, and I thought she did a fabulous job! I loved the design of her booth (fringe!), as well as pretty much everything in it.

Below, we have hand-drawn cards from The Great Lakes (pick them up in their shop).

Next was Avie Design Studio, a booth I remembered loving last year and that didn’t disappoint this year. Everything was so pretty and feminine! And take a look at that paper-cut invitation suite — gorgeous!

Last up in this post we have Wild Ink Press. I thought Rebekah’s booth was absolutely beautiful, and she was so nice, to boot!

That’s it for today’s paper extravaganza, but check back tomorrow for three more posts!

Welcome back to Paper Goodness Days on SW! Trent and I loved the offerings at Alice-Louise Press, and loved that they paired letterpress pieces with digitally-printed pieces within suites to bring the cost down a bit.

Next up was Gilah Press, where there were nice people and this cute peaches + cream card.

I loved the beautiful range of colors at Max & Bunny (and those patterns were pretty nice, too!).

My friend Molly’s favorite stationer is Egg Press, so of course we had to make a stop at their booth. I loved the mason jar card!

Hello!Lucky’s quirky style was on brilliant display in their booth. They featured a few projects from their “Handmade Weddings” book in addition to their stationery.

Hammerpress also had a lovely booth. I loved the little flags identifying each card.

I adored the appropriately retro look of the cards and prints from Old School Stationers. You can find them for sale in their Etsy store here!

Last but certainly not least for Part II of our tour, we have Gooseberry Press, purveyor of stylish maps, city totes, and paper goods. Perfect for VIP weekend welcome gifts!

I’ll be back with more soon!

    I’m IN LOVE with the mason jar card, but I can’t find it in their shop! Is it listed?

      Hi Megan! Many stationers show new collections at the Show that haven’t begun to be sold yet. I’d take another peek in a few months!

    Thank you for featuring Gooseberry Press! They create a lot of fun products with my map illustrations (especially their new lunch boxes), and it was great to see them at the show!
