In the era of email and text messages, getting a gorgeous hand-written card from a friend is a rare treat. Like designer shoes and Belgian chocolate, fine stationery is truly one of life’s great pleasures. It is an exciting way to express your creativity and connect with friends and business associates. From whimsical Kate Spade notes, to classic engraved Tiffany cards in robin’s egg blue, writing letters on beautiful paper is a soothing experience. No matter how much stationery I buy, I always seem to spot something better at Kate’s Papery that I just have to have.

Now I’ve found the ultimate in luxury stationery. Like Super Glue, Fabulous Stationery is a product that truly lives up to its name. They have eye-popping graphics and sleek, modern designs. Letterpress purists may balk as it is not understated bland stationery. It’s quite racy and very trendy. You can choose from over 300 personalized note cards. They are totally custom designed and personalized. They make up stationery for any occasion from invitations, birth announcements, and thank you notes or just personalized note cards.

They have the most unique envelopes I have ever seen. I always throw away envelopes after I’ve opened them. However, I end up throwing away the sender’s return address as well. Fabulous Stationery thought of an ingenious solution; they put the return address on the back of the card and have a clear window on the back of the envelope. So you can throw away the envelope and keep the return address on the back of the card. There are so many options, it makes you want to get a new set of stationery with each new love. Here, we imagined what Fabulous Stationery Brad Pitt would have gotten with Gwenyth, Jen and Angelina.

Speaking of Brangelina, they could get some sunny floral birth announcements for Shiloh Nouvelle, a.k.a. “the most beautiful baby in the world.”

Even though we have seen tons of pictures of Shiloh, Tom and Katie have been keeping Suri out of the spotlight. This birth announcement is perfect for the baby who wants to keep a low profile.

When Gwyneth’s daughter Apple had baby brother Moses, only the most stylish baby gifts would do. This birth announcement is cute but masculine and has a retro-modern feel, perfect for your rockstar baby. Treat yourself to a set of beautifully-designed note cards.
