Who here loves everything stationary?

(I know Allie has some mixed emotions about it.)

Writing thank you notes can be tedious, but I’ve discovered that I’m better about finishing them when I write on something pink and pretty! (Pink and pretty – isn’t that true with most things in life?)

With that in mind, I’m so excited to share Kris-10’s Creations! A line of adorably bright water color paper goods that I know all you Lilly-lovers will simply love.

Kristin, a native Texan, started making these designs for her own use as birthday cards and thank you notes to friends. They made such a splash that she turned this hobby into a livelihood. And I am personally oh so happy that she did.

Why do I adore her stationary? Besides the fact that she’s from Texas (I know, I know) I love how personal every piece feels. The watercolor makes for a sincere and gorgeous message – as if you yourself had picked up some paints and sketched out a little card.

Add beautiful Bible verses to the mix, and you have a winning combination. The sweet reminder of truth that lies on many of these cards leaves a lasting impression and never fails to brighten my day.

Here are a few of my favorites. After looking through them, I think you’ll know exactly what I mean!

1. Floral Vines

Pink and green and John 15. These precious notes are currently on sale for $5 for a pack of 10, envelopes included! Scurry on over here to grab some!

2. Colorful Banners

Currently combing through Facebook to find recent high school and college grads – you can bet these are coming their way.

3. Pink Circle Medallion

“Mercy, peace and love be yours in abundance” John 1:2 – A sweet blessing on every page. Filling up the gift closet with this darling notepad.

4. Pink Cake Stand

 There’s even a candle to make a wish! It’s sure to come true with this charming card.

5. Pink & Green Scallop 

It was hard to chose a favorite out of the personalized stationary options, but you can never go wrong with pink and green! They’re plenty more gorgeous options here.

6. Vertical Amber Swirls

 A favorite verse in the prettiest portrayal I’ve seen. These encouragement cards fit any and every occasion, don’t you think?

7. Fish

Don’t tell Hunter, but I would very much like to steal his placemat. Am I the only one?

8. 2013 Inspirational Calendar

My favorite Kris-10’s Creation? A contender would be this calendar. Each month has a beautiful design accompanied by an uplifting verse. When this year is finished, I plan on cutting out the designs and framing my favorite ones for my desk!

I’ll stop there and let you take over! I know you’ll enjoy perusing the website!
