Paper Crave started out as a side project for me way, way back in 2006, and over the years it’s provided an outlet for me to share my love for all things paper. It’s also allowed me to meet so, so many amazing and talented people in the stationery, paper goods, paper crafts, and creative communities. I’m incredibly thankful for the many opportunities that this blog has brought, and I’m incredibly grateful to you for taking time to check out what’s going on over here over the years. It’s been so much fun, and I can’t tell you how much I’ve appreciated all of your comments, emails, and just the time that you’ve taken to pop in here to see my latest paper cravings.
