One of my highlights of the month is when the latest Papergang box drops through my letterbox. I've had a fair few of these now and I love that the team always manages to come up with interesting themes - and they work with incredible illustrators too.

I did the ol' 'put-it-on-the-credit-card-and-worry-about-it-later' thang (not… Continue reading Stationery porn: Gemma Correll Papergang box #3

When I saw photos of the first Gemma Correll Papergang box I was so disappointed that I didn't order it. She's my favourite illustrator and I think she's just generally freaking awesome, so when I heard there was going to be another collaboration I signed up straight away.
