on a previous blog entry, i shared with you my love of paper and a sneak peak of silhouPETte‘s new updated packaging that i’ve been working on. today, i’m happy to share with you a few pics jessica, owner of silhouPETte, shared with me of the new complete packaging of their beautiful charm necklaces.
and look at how gorgeous they look in their framed display!

as a graphic designer and lover of all things stationery related, you can say i’m a bit of a paper snob. when i’m given a business card, a brochure or even a restaurant take out menu, my first instinct is to examine the paper, feel the texture, see if any special printing method was applied and sometimes there can even be a distinct good paper smell. i know, weird, right? but, i can’t help it.
to me, paper for a printed collateral is like the icing on the cake. any special printing methods or embellishments used is the cherry on top. in other words, very important for the overall presentation. so with each project where i am a part of the printing process, i like to make sure all options are presented, including every single ivory/off-white stock paper i can get my hands on. and i mean every single textured, speckled and shade possible.
i then will share a small, labeled sample of each to the client so they can decide which paper suits them and their needs the best.
sometimes it may also help to print a mock up sample of the design on each paper. this gives the client the best representation of what the final piece will look like.
this is a sneak peak of what the new and improved silhouPETte packaging will include. A backer card, that each charm necklace will hang off of and placed in those gorgeous foil embossed kraft boxes, previously designed.
looking forward to seeing which paper card stock gets chosen for the final piece!
sometimes we all can use the convenience of a gift mailed directly to the recipient. whether they are oceans away or your next door neighbor, a mailed gift package can sometimes be a greater surprise than the gift itself. anytime you order a notecard set or simplewear onesie and have me ship directly to the recipient, there will always be a handwritten note with your special message included inside.
every order is always packaged with love, including our notecards!
for a wide rage of notecard options, please visit our Etsy shop! from thank you cards to personalized notecard sets, there’s a little bit of something for everyone!
it’s not too late to send a thank you note to the generous people in your lives for the amazing holiday gift. Or better yet, make a new year’s resolution to send more snail mail. ’cause who doesn’t love getting an unexpected letter or note in their (real life) mailbox?
♥
we at “in a card” are passionate about written correspondences. what better way to show someone how much you care then taking the time to write them a note. whether it’s a simple thank you or a long over due how’s it going, we hope our designs will motivate you to pick up that pen and send a little love…
just when i thought sushi couldn’t get any cuter, sakae sushi in gardena, puts it in a box and wraps it up.
made me think of my recent post, in the details. this was definitely one of those little details i saw today. and it definitely brought a smile to my face. when the lady behind the counter handed me the box, i felt like a giddy little girl with a present someone just surprised me with. it was such a fun experience unwrapping my gift box of sushi when i got home and opening the box to see this beautiful presentation laid out in front of me.
as i was taking pictures of my lunch today, i couldn’t help but think of how very well represented those sushi erasers and sushi usb drives are. 🙂
