Coaster Paper Notecard with Rounded Corners

Real Card Studio's Diecut Notecard on Anisette stock, letterpress printed in Cocoa ink

Last week I came across a nice article in the New York Times covering the stationery wardrobe (obsession?) of one woman in New York City. It's a fun read that paper lovers can relate to. After reading the article and passing it on to some friends, I finally studied the first photograph in the article and was so pleased to see that Real Card Studio's Anisette notecard was very proudly displayed. It's a bummer (for me) that they didn't credit the design, but I am happy that I eventually noticed anyway. (You can't accuse me of just looking at the pictures!)

One of the readers of the article left a comment (#64) that I truly agree with:

"Though handwritten notes and letters might indeed be tossed away, there is value in saving them. When a friend dies, young or old, the letter or note might be the most intimate piece of memory left. Whether on dime-store stationary or terribly expensive notepaper, it could matter very much over time."
