Be Mine, True Love, I like-like you...

Do you know what day is right around the corner? February 14th, the most loveiest day of the year! (If you guessed Friday the 13th you were correct but until someone makes a card that say "Sorry that black cat crossed your path this morning" cards I don't think I'll be writing a Friday the 13th blog post)

Gus & Ruby has all the "loves" covered: true love, platonic love, i like-like you, we've been together for way too long love, making sure you didn't just accidentally say i love you for the first time on a card love.
Our Valentine's Day cards have been arriving for weeks now and its been so hard to not show them all you until now. Since February is only a few days away I thought it was finally time.

First off, how great are these tattly love notes for kids to give to all their classmates!

We have a few more sets in the store as well, like these great postcards, sweet heart noteset, and tiny love notes to say "I Love You" every day!

Vendor Spotlight: One Canoe Two


While you may not know this company by name, there is a pretty good chance you have a One Canoe Two card at home in your card stash as we speak. This great company was started by 3 women, Carrie, Beth, and Karen in Columbia, Missouri back in 2009. 
You know that sweet little NH state print that is so popular we have a time time keeping it in stock? You can thankCarrie, Beth, and Karen for that. 

 


Every card, art print, and calendar starts off as a beautiful original work of art by Carrie. Its so exciting to see a quick notebook sketch turn into a finished card. 


                        



Here is a look at some of Once Canoe Two's newest offerings and some of my all time favorites
 


While we haven't heard yet what this onion and radish painting are going to turn into, but I'd be pretty excited to see each as month for the 2016 Oversized wall calendar!
