Rifle Paper Co journals

rifle7

The team at Rifle Paper Co have been hard at work adding new products to their ever-growing range of paper goodies, which is awesome for us stationery lovers. I’ve been a big fan of the biz for a while so it was a treat to get hands-on with Rifle’s new Vintage Blossoms and Rosa journal combos recently.

The Vintage Blossoms set consists of two journals that are 150mm x 202mm and contain 48 blank pages. The cover is made from a thin cardboard and while it has some sturdiness to it, it would be easy to crease or damage if not careful. The cover features beautiful illustrations with that unmistakable Rifle style. It also has gold foil accents that really elevate the design to another level.

The Rosa set (below) is smaller in size with each book measuring 106mm x 139mm. They feature the same thin cardboard cover but it’s made stronger because of the smaller size. The Rosa set also features gold foil accents. This smaller set is the perfect size to carry around in your bag.

All of Rifle’s notebooks are printed on high quality paper FSC-certified paper stocks. Forest Stewardship Council (FSC), is an organisation created to ensure sustainable forestry and holds the highest level of environmental standards in the paper industry. The inside paper stock is a cream colour and is untextured. I didn’t do a pen test on these notebooks because I’m giving them away.

Thanks to my friends at Notemaker for giving me with these gorgeous journals to review. Notemaker stocks a whole bunch of Rifle Paper Co goodies so make sure you pop by and have a look.

RIFLE Holiday Cards

Oh RIFLE Paper Co. I’m such a lover of your papery goodness. How gorgeous are these Holiday cards? And this is just a teeny tiny example of what Anna and her team creates. Hmmm I better get my order in pronto!

New Rifle Paper Co goodies!

I love Rifle Paper Co. Seriously. I’m a big fan of everything Anna Bond creates. So I was super excited to get an early bird email about the release of some new products and designs. I LOVE the new notepads and at $8.00 each they’re a bargain!

Mother’s Day!

Happy Mother’s Day to my Mum and to all the other Mums out there. We just got back from a brunch over at the folks’ place which was a lovely way to start a Sunday.

Now, I don’t know if I’ve mentioned it here on the blog before but I’m a big fan of Rifle Paper Co. They are a husband and wife team over in Florida who make the most gorgeous stationery. Thankfully for me, Mother’s Day gave me a great opportunity to buy one of their beautifully illustrated Mother’s Day cards – I’ve had my eye on it for a while and loved it immediately. I just adore the typography and the retro-esque feel. I also purchased some note cards to add to my ever growing stash (thankfully I have a few more pen pals this year so I’ll use them all up for sure).
