Have a Card on hand for All Occasions

All Occasion Boxed Cards

I imagine we’ve all been there. An occasion calls for a card and we’ve waited until the last minute to buy one. During moments like that we can either: Be late to the party by making an emergency stop at the nearest superstore… Write a message on a plain note card or piece of paper… Show up [...]

Cavallin Leather Journal for the Writer in You

Cavallini Roma Lussa Leather Journal

I could own a hundred of these journals. But for now, I own 3 ~ Three because I like to write different themes into each separate journal and these journals represent the ‘final draft’ or final word of anything I’ve been working on. Mixing various writing styles into one expensive leather journal feels all wrong (to me) [...]
