And you, too, shall fall madly in love with the 2008 line of Valentine cards from hello! Lucky.

This die cut deer card kills me but then I have a soft spot for the Pirate Monkey, too.

Pirate monkey! C’mon! How cute is that?

I’m always eager to see what the fine folks at Hello!Lucky have in store. This year’s holiday photo cards are absolutely adorable. This one is particularly festive and I love that matching envelope.

Angela from Carta, inc. sent over this beauty. It’s the result of a collaborative effort with artist Sue Pilgrim Waters and ( perennial ILL favorite) Albertine Press.

I had a difficult time choosing just one card from Vertalee Letterpress‘ holiday line. Ultimately I chose this stunner because it’s so different from anything I’ve seen this season. Gorgeous!

You can see them all at (where else?) the Vertalee Etsy shop.

Today’s bit of cuteness and holiday cheer comes from Megan creates’ Presslings line. I love the clever use of ornaments/objects as letters.

All the way from Switzerland (via her Etsy shop, of course) comes Letteria.

I adore these kissing reindeer coasters. (The matching cards are just as adorable.)

I’m delighted to showcase B13 Paper Goods today. Isn’t this snowflake card adorable? Light blue + black for the holidays is a winning combination in my book. (And I won’t even go into how much I love scalloped edges.)

You can find this treasure in Amy’s etsy shop.
