Dear Everyone ~

Roses are nice, bonbons are too, but for someone
who loves paper beaucoup… these new sets of postcards
from France make my heart go pitter-pad.

Each pad contains two each of five designs, printed on
the thickest, dreamiest, creamiest cotton card stock.
The surface is good for pen & ink, and marvelous for markers.
The assortments I’ve imported are Tropical, Les Animaux,
and Les Fleurs. All three are glorious harbingers of daylight savings,
with spring not far behind.

The covers of the pads suggest a couple of creative possibilities.
You can slice the front off and use it as another card.
Or you can trim out your favourite part to use as a bookmark.
Or, most tempting to me, you can keep (or give)
some little somethings in it, à la mini portfolio.

I’ve also refreshed my stock of notebooks
and jaunty journals from the same French fabricators.
The new patterns of flora and fauna are cheerful
& charmola, and a bit exotic!
