Minted Scallop Card, Kiku Corner

Minted is an online community of independent artists and designers from around the world. There’s a handy little map on their website pinpointing the location of all the artists across the globe. Minted offers a variety of stationery goods, including save the date cards, invitations, holiday cards, business cards, art prints, and even fabric and wrapping paper. As a design marketplace, Minted hosts design challenges where artists make submissions which are then voted on, and the winners are featured and available for sale on the website. I found the beautiful scalloped-edged card above with a cute customize-able flower burst emblem. This would be a great little card to include with a gift for someone special.

We love getting and sending letters and postcards, and pretty stationery is always inspiring. When we lived in Saudi Arabia, the whole postal issue was iffy – we would basically need a miracle in order to receive a letter sent within 2 months. And with all our international friends and family, it was always fun to see the interesting stamps on the letters themselves. Even now, I love individually selecting a card meant for a specific person.

Minted Deco Fabric, Kiku Corner

Minted also has some lovely fabric available. The beautiful design above is called Deco and is available in a variety of colour combinations. It would make a lovely pillowcase or some curtains, or even as part of a quilt.

 

Minted Foiled Arabesque Card, Kiku Corner

We credit our upbringing in Saudi Arabia for our attraction to anything that is described as arabesque. The charming card above has a cute corner design and can be personalized, as we did.

There are also some gorgeous Minted Save The Dates cards available. Since we are not personally in need of any wedding invitations at the moment, we personalized the cascading foil wedding invitation for Kiku Corner’s first birthday, coming up in February.
