I like the Leslie Vega Design
i had a good scroll through this website…Akimbo design did it for me…a little bit whimsical but not too far fetched…
As a fellow stationery designer at Chic Ink, I have to say my fave is Oblation Papers. All the paper looks delicious!
so hard to choose…but i love whimsy of e.m. papers.
thanks for the chance to win. :)

I love Copper Dog Press!
My favorite designer would have to be Copper Dog Press- elegant and romantic!
Cute Maps is adorable!
It is so difficult to choose a favorite designer, but if I have to I must say that I am most drawn to Oslo Press. I love their use of wood in their products – taking it beyond ‘paper’.
I absolutely love the littleladycompany!
They are all beautiful but if I have to choose I would pick Yellow Brick Graphics!!
I really like the work of Inky Livie. http://www.weddinginvitelove.com/profiles/inky-livies-workshop/
Loved Taviori’s and the Event Essentials, both work looks really stylish and unique!
I really love Taviori’s work. Their letter design is exquisite and I am sure I would enjoy ordering from them.
Thanks for the great giveaway. ~Pauline

I love the use of letterpress that Thomas-Printers employs!!
long-time, huge fan of em papers!
long-time fan of em papers~
I love the Woodland Papercuts.
I like Mitchell & Dent. I wish I had known about this site when I was planning my wedding.
The Event Essentials have the most beautiful design, so vintage ^^
Jennifer Alison Designs – very elegant! Wish I found these before I got married!!
I love the recipe cards!!! Would be great for homemade gifts
I absolutely love the invitations by Lambert Letterpress. First, I love that they use products that are eco-friendly, but I also adore the use of color and detail. I initially fell in love with the orange tree invitations and wish I had found these first before choosing my own invitations for my wedding. There’s always baby shower invitations eventually though!
I adore the vintage photo invites from Tag &Co.
I absolutley fell in love with Taviori’s design. Trying to find more of her work, she is so good.

Just finished writing a blogpost about wedding invite love and about how much I love Taviori’s designs http://fromtheworldofart.blogspot.com/2011/06/wedding-invitations-and-mind-blowing-3d.html
I like the works of Night Owl Paper Goods http://www.weddinginvitelove.com/profiles/night-owl-paper-goods/. It’s eco-friendly!
I must say i couldn’t resist with Taviori’s design. They seems so magical – and that’s how my fiance and i picture our wedding..
magical.
Thanks for the chance to win the amazing giveaway – hope we will be the lucky winners!
If I win I could die smiling in those heavenly papers and cards. I’m a paper obsessed and this is like heaven to me! It’s really hard, I mean REAL hard to choose a favorite among those design gods, but I think I like madebybrian’s design. It’s eye catching !
I think Taviori makes the most exquisite designs – a bit of a splurge but sooo beautiful!
My favorite designer at the site is Yellowbrick Graphics. Very classy!
Paisley Tree Press – I love their font and the colours they choose but what I love most of all is the feel. With modern technology at our fingertips and the use of email, twitter and facebook being so popular, it is so sad to see fewer people sending out real, snail mail. I miss the feeling of receiving an actual letter or card. Do you recall getting excited over a letter, using yr penknife to tear it open and the smell of the stationary. Pure bliss! Oh, how I miss it so…….
Stands to reason why I would love Bloom Art & Design out of Austin…I’m a native Texan!
My fav is Emily and Dana from Three Little Words.
I love In the Tree House, their items are so vibrant and full of life and laughter.
Thanks for hosting this giveaway.
I love the Event Essentials http://www.weddinginvitelove.com/profiles/the-event-essentials/ because it’s so elegant and pretty!
i love the nautical themed save the dates that ice cream social has! theyd be perfect for my brother’s wedding since he’s getting married on st. thomas (and were taking a cruise ship there!)
I love the colors used with Yellowbrick graphics. So great!
*LOVE* the Ma Joie Press. Tres jolie! :-) Thanks.
Love http://www.paisleyquill.com/
very cute!
Stationery. Oh my goodness. I LOVE STATIONERY in all its forms. And the typography of the all the invites? Now that makes it even harder of a choice to make.
I loved the wedding invite made by Cartoules Press. It was all Greek to me! haha
I love the SpinSugar Station. The pink designs are something that I’m in love with!
Oh wow, I’ve never seen so much beautiful stationary in the one place – I could be here for hours! In the Treehouse is my favourite – http://www.weddinginvitelove.com/profiles/in-the-treehouse/ ! I love the colours and cheery vibe :)
http://www.weddinginvitelove.com/profiles/rigel-stuhmiller/ Rigel Stuhmiller’s selection is sweet n stylish.
stunning, clean and simple. http://www.weddinginvitelove.com/profiles/stelie-designs/ Stelie Designs stole my heart <3
Lol letterpress is my favourite (http://www.weddinginvitelove.com/profiles/lol-letterpress/) :) I love the old-fashioned feel to their stationery!
how can you go past It’s A Date Event Design? they’re local (for an aussie, anyway) and their designs are so special!
I really love all of the http://www.weddinginvitelove.com/profiles/taviori/
but it is a bit expensive, unfortunately :(
So hard to decide on a favorite! I love the whimsy of LOL Letterpress , but the total sweetness of Paper Silk Press’ “Allison Collection” is hard not to swoon over.
