Above: Close-Up of the Field of Blooms Card.

Whew! Who can believe that it's the last week of September? I have been working diligently all week on plans for holiday shows that will be taking place in the upcoming months as well as working on more product photography of Christmas cards that will be releasing soon. Here's my favorite finds this week:

DESIGN / These amazing detailed carpets drawn by a Bic pen are unreal.

READ / Sarah Schwartz, editor of Stationery Trends Magazine, has unveiled a fun new paper blog called The Paper Chronicles. Congrats, Sarah!

EYE CANDY / How cool are the minimalist icons Petite Alma did for temporary tattoo company Tattly?

SMALL BUSINESS / Thoughtful article on Design Sponge about how to leverage your press into sales.

WATCH / The Stir Kinetic desk knows when you should sit, stand, or breathe. I need one stat!

LISTEN / The Phosphorescent album has been keeping me company in the studio this week.
