Pretty stationery for texting or emailing

May 11, 2011

I often go to several different stationery stores until I find the best, prettiest card for the occasion at hand–great paper goods is a bit of an obsession.

I much prefer mailing an actual paper card, but sometimes it just makes more sense to dash off a quick e-mail or text (say, to let your BFF know you received the gift she sent in the mail so she doesn’t give hell to the courier company–true story, btw), which is why I’m so loving the Cartolina iPhone app. The app ($1.99) offers 18 very pretty, feminine designs to pretty up your emails or texts.

Swoon-worthy, n’est-ce pas?

    I think it’s an interesting that the more the internet shifts the more it comes to look like non-tech life. That stationary is a perfect example. We want the ease of use and speed of technology, but don’t want to lose the quaintness or sentimentality of real books, letters, etc. Turning down the top corner on a kindle is very much an example. I wonder if while technology is making our lives easier, it’s not also making us a little schizophrenic as well.

    I’ve always had a short attention span, and my iPhone is not helping the matter.

    Do you have a Kindle? I’ve recently been considering getting one, was admiring the one the guy seated next to me on plane had.
