Author: Nathalie St-Pierre Roths

A perfect complement for a birthday greeting card is a little cupcake. This is my opinion! So, when you order a Notes and Photo birthday greeting card, don’t forget to think the perfect cake that will have a similar look in color with your greeting card.

At Notes and Photos, it is in our project to create personalized bookmarks. While waiting to offer such project, we are suggesting you to create a handmade bookmark with your children. It is an art project I love doing with my kids and it is super easy to make also.

After a personalized card, a unique wrapping!

You have plenty of choice when it comes to a personalized greeting card on our site, Notes and Photos but when it comes to wrapping, stores often offer only too commercial wrappings. If you have an artistic hand, nothing can stop you to create your own wrapping like the above photo. A nice ribbon on top will finish everything in beauty!

Who say abstract patterns doesn’t always mean it is only for adult? I recently discovered  this lovely children toybox. Little monkeys silhouettes on abstract paper. Very simple but quite classic as touch.

Ah, this is my ultimate pleasure this weekend! I gave myself as a challenge for the past month to see all the Oscar-nominated movies. And I succeeded! I had to watch 3 to 4 movies a day while I was working on my computer.

Don’t ask where I will be on Sunday night! I will be sitting in front of my television to see who will win. By the way, I loved “Avatar”!

As you know, Notes and Photos offer personalized cards. However, nothing is stopping you to be creative if you only need one card. This is what I am suggesting you today. Combine creativity and eco-environment. Why not make a card with recycled paper combined with a lovely tree leaf!

Creative recycling!

Because I am married to an engineer, I totally fell in love with this picture frame. My husband has worked all his life with this type of computer board. This is what I call creative recycling!

When I saw this handmade greeting card, I fell in love with the beautiful colors and ornaments. Strangely, it made me think of India. And I love a lot…

Tightly knit

When it is cold out there, nothing is better to me than sitting near the fireplace, writing a nice Notes and Photos notecard and have a knitting project going on. Every time I see a knitting kit, I can only think of one person: my grandmother. She was an avid knitter.

She is no longer with us but I remember days where she was knitting while I was sketching or writing. Those were some good old days!

Whimsical drawings!

These cute coasters with charming drawings are the perfect element when I work in the office. I love the variety of the multiple drawings and inspire me a lot while I work.
