FIVE $50 gift cards to Paper Culture!

I'm not going to lie.....I'm a little bit of a stationary snob.

I want my invitations to be unique, unexpected, and chic.


When someone opens the envelope, I want them to oooh and ahhh.


And then save the invitation to show their friends.


I do. I really do.

My standards are high.
So when Paper Culture recently gave me the opportunity to review their line of stationary and invitations, this stationary snob said "Absolutely. Bring it on."

After receiving samples to review, I can whole-heartedly tell you.....




Holy.Chic.Stationary.Batman!!!!!
Words cannot express how IMPRESSED I was.
Paper Culture certainly brings the WOW! factor to the table.
Their designs are fresh and modern....and unlike any I have ever seen before. So original, I love it!
The quality of the cards and envelopes was outstanding. Very impressive.
Their customer service was excellent. Anytime I sent an email, I was given a reply immediately.
Here's what Paper Culture offers that they believe makes them stand out from the crowd....and I couldn't agree more:

Modern Designs - Clean lines, bold colors and fresh typography

Premium Quality – Our cards are printed on 130 lb. weight heavy stock paper cut with our signature, rounded corners and our envelopes are made of 100 lb. weight heavy stock paper. By comparison most leading companies use only 80-110 lb. weight paper for cards and 60-80lb. weight paper for envelopes.

Mail & Message - If you choose, we will stuff, address, stamp and mail your cards on your behalf and until January 1, 2010, the only charge for this service is the actual cost of the stamps! Also,when you provide your addresses, you have the option to print a unique, personalized message on the back of each card. Say what you want to whom on one, some or all your cards!

Signature Packaging – Otherwise, if you choose to address and mail your cards yourself, we will ship them in our signature logo box (made of recycled paper of course) – a keepsake to store your cards in style while they wait to be sent. (Boxes used on orders of 20+ cards.)

Eco-Friendly - All of our papers and envelopes are FSC certified as 100% post consumer recycled paper.

Paper Culture Cares – A portion of all proceeds go towards supporting our community.

And now people, I think I need to sit down. I'm feeling a little faint.

I've never done such a big giveaway before.

Are you ready for this?
