Spring Offerings from Rifle Paper Co.

I heart so many of the spring offerings from brilliant letterpress company, Rifle Paper Co. Designer Anna Bond's whimsical, brightly colored illustrations have a vintage, slightly child-like quality to them. And pretty. They're so very pretty. I'll take one of each, please.

Book Porn

My life's ambition is to build myself a library akin to the one seen in Disney's Beauty and the Beast. This scene is straight up porn for a book nerd like myself. 

And it's even better when you see it in action. I still get chills every time I watch the magical unveiling of the wonder that is Beast's library. Chills!

Literary Jack-O'-Lanterns

My favorite Halloween ritual just might be the reading of chilling gothic tales and ghost stories. So I was pretty delighted when I came across these incredible jack-o'-lanterns inspired by great works of literature. The enormous amount of skill, precision, and imagination needed to execute such beautifully detailed designs boggles the mind. I heart these all so much, almost as much as the stories themselves. Can you spot the specific tales of each one?

Flipping through the latest Rue has left me feeling inspired. Such gorgeous composition and light and fun design ideas can be found within its pages. Here are a few images that get my creative juices flowing (plus, you really can't go wrong with an owl on the front cover, now can you?):
