Announcing the Discover Paper 2012 Spring Guide
A new guide is on the horizon! Did anyone see it coming? The Discover Paper 2012 Spring Guide will be released during the first week of April and it’s going to be epic, just like the previous ones I released. It will be the last one for a while, until I put one together for the Fall.
What can you expect to see in the Spring Guide? A heavy emphasis on posters and prints, letter-writing, paper-cuts, DIYs, and a few other goodies.
If you’d like to book an ad in the Spring Guide send me an email at discoverpaper@gmail.com with “2012 Spring Guide Advertising” in the subject line. Advertising rates in the Spring Guide start as low as $25.

S. Valentine
Happy Valentine’s Day, everyone! About a month ago, I shared some of the works of talented artist Serena Olivieri, who has also been featured recently on Design Sponge as well. Serena shared the following video with me that her friend Cynthia Gonzaelz was creating, featuring a darling little notebook Serena created.

Valentine’s DIYs
If you’re not busy this weekend, then I encourage you to get your craft on, Valentine’s style. I’ve rounded up several fun and (mostly) painless—be warned that I’ve thrown in a few Martha Stewart crafts in there and you can’t always trust that her crafts will be painless since she makes everything look effortless—DIYs.

- Figure 2: Valentine’s boxes by A Spoonful of Sugar
- Figure 3: Crayon and wax paper hearts via Martha Stewart
- Figure 4: Valentine’s Day monster kit by Ellinee

Hours of family fun for your weekend!
Stay tuned tomorrow for a massive roundup of free Valentine printables!
