Live Your Style!

This week has been quite busy and I apologize for the lack of interesting posts. I feel like I am letting you down! However, after my busy week last week I needed a bit of a break and I have been concentrating on the election just like many of you. Today I voted as I will be volunteering at the polls for a full day shift on Tuesday. I was so happy to see a huge line of people at the poll; every vote counts!
Now onto to something else exciting: PAPER PRODUCTS!
Yes, you all know I am obsessed, but you too my friend are about to fall in love. Shop Boatman Gellar is a website BG has for all their overstock and retired items. I just love all the fun patterns offered, but my favorite part is of course the price... fifty note cards and envelopes for $12 (small) or $15 (large), fifty holiday cards and envelopes for $20, fifty gift cards for $5 or forty eight address labels for $2. Can you beat that price friends!? The quality of the products found on this site is exactly the same of all other BG products and the selection is just wonderful! Also, all address labels and stickers are meant for use with an ink jet printer- hooray! Here is a sampling of some of the items I purchased for myself and my giveaways (I have been busy printing away and will post photos soon!):
Madras Address Labels for the prep in you.
Bring out your wild side and spice up a present with this darling sticker!

These look just darling by themselves or try printing them with your name (French Script looks wonderful).

If folded notes are your thing, aren't these festive? Some of the folded notes can be ordered with 'Thank You' printed on them...fabulous!

Finally, as Christmas is soon approaching, what about this holiday card?
There is a wonderful selection of photo cards on the site so whether pink and green is your thing or your prefer the simple, lovely red scallop you are bound to find something. Another wonderful thing is that several (I am not sure if all) cards can be ordered with a pre-printed message! Easy on the bank account and you can now mark another to-do off your list!
Boatman Gellar does it yet again! Items are only offered while supplies last so if you see something you fancy you had better stock up now! Add a pretty bow and items like the note cards would make a lovely gift for a girlfriend (you could even buy packing from the site so it looks like it is right off the store shelf) or you can just spoil yourself. As BG says "Live Your Style" while still watching your bank account!

I am glad to see that you are back in full form. This is an amazing time in our history and we all should be taking a break to experience it. However, I am glad you are back!! I love your ideas for shopping and the discounts are impressive. Visit my blog and sign up for my giveaway. I have some stationary that I bought with you in mind ! xo

I found this website recently too and it's fantastic! I can't believe the return address labels are only $2!

Boatman Geller has the cutest stuff... Have you been to the new Paper Source in North Park? It is wonderful! I know it is not that new, but I just had a chance to wander around it...

Thanks to you, I just placed an order! I ordered the pink patchwork flat cards like you, too cute! Also, the pink plaid gift cards and navy lattice t-you cards! The prices are unbelievable! I had never actually been on the site until today. Too bad I already have my Christmas cards from William Arthur, next year I will definitely remember to check out BG - SO much cheaper! Thanks!!

Just placed an order and shared the site with a few of my friends. They'll all be thrilled with the deals, I'm sure! Thanks for the heads up. It's much appreciated. BG has fabulous products!

Glad to hear you have had a good week. From what we have been hearing on the news here it sounds like voting early has been an adventure in itself.

Oh, and love the paper. Too cute. Wish they shipped to Australia!

Allison said...

Thanks for sharing the website! I used to work at a stationery store and always loved BG. Now I'll have some (actually, a lot) of my own! Also, just wanted to let you know I love your blog. So much fun-- I've been haunting the archives and especially loved reading about your summer adventures in Europe. You've inspired me to put the prep back in my life. : )
