Lisa Jones
Posted by Amy on Wednesday July 6, 2011
I found pretty prints and delightful animals over at Lisa Jones’ Studio. The products in the shop come from the collaborative effort of husband and wife team, Lisa and Edward, both of whom are based in London. Their designs and illustrations veer towards 1950’s retro style while maintaining a modern edge, and can be found on stationery, cards, textiles, screen prints and more.
See their website and shop for more!

maricor/maricar
Posted by Amy on Thursday April 7, 2011
Loving the beautiful typography and embroidery of Maricor/Maricar. They make kick-ass things from paper and thread, with a portfolio that encompasses a wide range of disciplines spread across mediums from paper to video (their latest work is a stop motion video for Big Green Idea!)
From their “About” page:
We have an unusual obsession with paper and patterns, like geeking out with gachapon toys and enjoy getting crafty with embroidery and fimo.
Apart from their website, they have a blog and an online shop which you can stalk from time to time — I know I definitely going to do that (and I bet our contributor @RachealAnilyse is going to do so too!)

Endangered Animals
Posted by Amy on Wednesday February 9, 2011
Have you seen the Endangered Animals collaboration between artists Sandra Dieckmann and Jamie Mills? I love how they’ve banded together to produce a collection that focuses on raising awareness of animals who are under threat. Their illustrations are beautifully done; I love how they each still stay true to their own style but have come up with artworks that represent each of their strengths so well.
You can leave a comment on their studio to pre-order a set, and part of the proceeds will go towards a charity.

New from Milimbo
Posted by Amy on Wednesday November 24, 2010
Remember that review that I did of Milimbo’s books (see previously)? Well they’ve come up with new items just in time for Christmas, including my favorite: A fun poster consisting of images from their book La Luna Sabe A Pescao that can also be separated into postcards. Genius!
