Paper Trends: Metallics

This week is an exciting one at Salutations! We are kicking off a new weekly series for the summer, called Paper Trends. Each week we will highlight a trend we’re seeing in stationery. This week it’s all about metallics!

Make your stationery stand out from the crowd with this smile-inducing trend. Metallics and foil can be added to almost anything. . . think personal stationery, wedding/party invitations, birthday cards and even coasters!

Nothing says “festive” quite like shine!

Metallics inspiration abounds! {top to bottom, left to right}: gilded cakes by Lael Cakes; party decorations from Rue Magazine – May/June 2011 – styled by You Plus Me – Photographed by Moss + Isaac; gold/black fashion from Elle Spain December 2009 – photographed by Riccardo Tinelli via Once Wed; Glorious Blooms letterpress and foil invitation by Bella Figura {of course, available at Salutations in Chapel Hill and Charlotte, North Carolina!}.
