Notes from the Studio

We’re excited to share that Rachel is featured on The Paper Fold podcast with Sarah Schwartz and that the conversation was so rich it turned into a two-part series (stay tuned for part two next month).

It’s been a long time coming, but we’re so excited to finally introduce you to Rosy the Riso, our new MH9450 Risograph machine and the newest member of our Heartell studio family! 🌸

Rachel recently traveled to Bellingham, WA and had the the joy of visiting Bison Bookbinding & Letterpress for the first time, a beloved shop and studio that’s long been part of our greeting-card world. From the moment she stepped inside, she was met with that unmistakable mix of ink, paper, and creativity that makes a print shop feel like home.

Here are your free quarterly desktop and mobile wallpapers for October - December. 

After finally unpacking our bags and letting the dust settle, we're reflecting on five takeaways from our time at Noted:

This MLK Day, we’re proud to announce our partnership with ​Crafting the Future​, a nonprofit whose sole mission is supporting BIPOC artists with resources to thrive in the crafts.

As we settle into the new year I wanted to share a little something to brighten your days: free ​Geofloral pattern wallpapers for your phone, tablet, or desktop in two new colorways.
