So you can enjoy the month of June, and have all your cards at the ready, consider getting them now. Want a deal? How about 15% off…if you order by May 31st. Code is listed below.
June can be such a busy month. Especially if you have kids school age. This blog post features cards from Canadian stationery brand called Selah Paper.

Let’s applaud loudly for all the teachers, school, music and coaches out there. They are worthy. My fav teacher card from Selah Paper is the one above, but there are many others to choose from.
Do you know a soon-to-be graduate? Snag a graduation card now and then you can focus on gowns, balloons and parties. Don’t forget to take lots of photos.

Father’s Day is June 21st. This might be a sad day for you or for someone you know. As soon as I saw this card – there are other ‘remembering’ cards too – I had to get it. I’ve never seen a card like this before. So thoughtful.
I hope you love these cards as much as me. Feel free to use code: ritewhileucan (all lowercase) by May 31st to save 15%. Then sit back and watch June unfold and mark the special days with joy and calm.
A big thank you to Sarah of Selah Paper for allowing me to use her product photos and for sharing this discount code with us for all the cards you need in June.
p.s. If you are invited to weddings, baby showers this summer there are great cards for those occasions as well. PLUS….did I mention stickers?! Yes, there are stickers!!





















































































































































































































































































































































































A workshop with pens, paper and type writers.
……and there was a woman at the pen club meeting who had upcycled maps into pen cups. She rolled individual pages into tubes, about the size of straws, and glued them around the outside of a clean tin can, added some cork to the bottom (inside and out) and voila!! She’s also a pilot and used some outdated flight maps as the “tubes”. I bought one of those for my brother who is also a pilot.
This is very cool idea Melanie. Thanks for sharing.
This sounds so fun. Sadly, I’m not “local” but I will put your location on my “travel here” list for a future visit. I am in “writing” mode as I went to the Colorado Pen Posse club meeting yesterday. We’re organizing the 2nd Annual Colorado Pen Show. Last year was the first (obviously) and also MY first pen show. There are many folks out there keeping writing-by-hand alive. BTW where does one go to shop for vintage, unused stamps? Thanks for your thoughts on writing. I always enjoy reading your posts and seeing your pictures.
Hi there Melanie, I so wish you could join us too on this event! Would be thrilled to have you visit some time. Imagine all the letter writing that would happen. I’ve never been to a pen show, must see if I can find one local. As for vintage stamps, most people I know order from amazon, but luckily, there is a darling of a shop in my city. It took a little sleuthing to find it, but well worth it. Best of luck finding one near you too.
