Stationery Thursday: Invitations from the National Stationery Show!

This week I’m in New York for the just-concluded National Stationery Show, where I’ve had the pleasure of not only getting to know some of my favorite designers a bit better, but also getting to spend some time with fellow members of the EAD family!  E. came down for a whirlwind marathon session on Sunday, while Cyd was also down the entire week with the rest of the Smock Paper family.  There was definitely an abundance of wedding invitations across the NSS aisles, so I thought I’d share a few of my favorites from the show here:

This is just a small sample of the amazing design on display at the NSS this week.  For additional coverage from the NSS, come on over to Oh So Beautiful Paper – where I’m recapping the entire show!
