I've been so absorbed in custom projects over the past couple of months that I haven't had any time to devote to the latest Minted challenges. That, my friends, made me a very sad designer. Thankfully, I had some free time on my hands this weekend, and I was able to enter my first Minted challenge in a couple of months. The assignment? Children's stationery.

Here are my entries.

Washi Sorbet

I've recently developed a love affair with washi tape. I use it when I package orders from senojal designs, and it definitely inspired this sweet 'Washi Sorbet' stationery.

Vintage Holla

Every time I see this design, I snicker a little bit. I realize that it's not for everyone, but if you're up for a quirky and fun way to shout out to your friends, my Vintage Holla stationery is for you. What little guy forced into writing thank you notes wouldn't want to use such funky paper?

Preppy Little Note

If this design looks familiar to you, it's because it's reminiscent of my blog design, which translates very well into stationery. Preppy Little Note is a sweet and simple design that's perfect for penning a note to a friend or writing a thank you note.

Picnics and Pinwheels

And finally, Picnics and Pinwheels is a spin-off design from the little lady's impending birthday party, which you'll hear more about later. These notes feature picnic-inspired patterns and colors (hello red gingham) and are classic and modern all at the same time.
