I’m a stationery geek. A full-on paper loving weirdo.
Since I started blogging, I have discovered it’s not all that weird and there are people like me out there! People Like Zie who runs the stationery subscription box It’s Paper Dear.
Zie amazes me. She runs It’s Paper Dear, whilst juggling school as an illustration student amongst many other things. Even her recent house move didn’t stop any orders being delayed.
So, let me share with you this super cute box of stationery goodies, with supplies all hand selected by Zie herself. All for a very reasonable $20 (around £12.95 with a little extra for postage).
Cute little notebook and pen…..always room for more notebooks in my life!
Super quirky greetings cards from Paper Sparrow. Not something I would usually choose, but that’s what I love about subscription boxes!
Gorgeous moleskin notebook and magnet from print maker and visual artist Jessica Gowling. The notebook is just beautifully made and designed. I can’t wait to use it.
Polka dots! Chevrons! Paper bags and scrapbooking card

These journalling cards are designed and printed by Zie herself and are probably my favourite thing in the box. This spotty box will definitely come in handy. There was also a clicky pencil, but unfortunately, mine hadn’t survived the trip from the US.
Cute envelopes, cards, buttons, sequins and washi tape. Such a cute little selection!
I was hugely impressed with the box. It came with a handwritten thank you card and was packaged in pink tissue. I’ll definitely be ordering again!
It’s Paper Dear is available in one month or three month subscriptions. As I’m saving for Christmas holidays this year, I’ll be buying a box as a treat every now and again.

All of that for $20?! I have to get on this!
I think postage was about $8 too. It it great value. Really good quality items!
Stationery! There’s just something about it isn’t there? Particularly like the Jessica Gowling designs, British wildlife art is very much my thing. Hope you enjoy all your new papery treasures!
She’s actually an artist from BC in Canada, but the designs are just lovely.
Oh my goodness this looks amazing! I too am a stationery nut – i wrote a post about it not that long ago (basically sharing my collection!) Will definitely have to check this out! http://www.skullsandponies.com/2012/05/confession-corner-my-obsession-with.html
Loved reading your stationery post Fran! The post-it notes comment reminded me of Romy and Michele’s High School Reunion, hehe!
DAMMIT. There goes getting this for Fran as a “surprise” Christmas present :p
It looks totally amazing- I can’t believe you got all that for less than £20! Hope you have fun deciding what to use it for
It was truly one of the best parcels ever. So pretty & such lovely quality. Can’t wait to get time to do some journalling now!
OOOOOhhhhhh!!! Another amazing subscription box! My heart started beating a little faster when I saw this. I’m a stationery addict too, I can spend hours in Paperchase and online searching out notebooks and papery goodness
xx
We will have to swap paper shop favourites one day! x
Need this. I’m also a stationery addict and have a drawer full of notebooks I can’t wait to use. This subscription box looks like a treasure chest to me, thanks for letting us know about Zie!
Wow what a lovely box! You must get so much exciting post!
Oh so cool! I am mad about stationery too. I bet opening that box was super exciting, will def have to look into subscribing to this… x
oh my goodness, this looks amazing!! there are so many good subscription boxes at the moment, it’s torture! i’ve been spending hours looking at stationary the last few days- browsing for next years diary

Today an event I got a free notebook. It was like Christmas hehe!
Awesome!!! I bet postage is a killer for the UK though?
No it was only $8 postage so not too bad!
I bet your postman must wonder what you get in all your parcels!
I actually get everything to delivered to work! The receptionist gets really excited and makes me open all my craft parcels there so she can have a nose
It was yarn this week (from Texere – great site btw).
You are amazing – you must have loads of bits all over the place (or are you very organised?)
I try to keep everything in boxes in my craft room, but right now it looks like someone let a bomb off in there. I have a giant box for paper craft, one for fabric and one for threads, buttons and anything else. I use picnic hampers and baskets for yarn and they are dotted all over the house. Attempting to be organised!
Craft room!!!! Lucky you
It’s only cos we haven’t got kiddlywinks! G has a mancave and I have a craft room which is also the spare room. To be fair we live in the middle of town and pay stupid amounts.
Teehee, am very pleased to see this and all the lovely responses, because I and the lovely Anna at midorigreen are launching a UK stationery subscription box on 1st November
will keep you updated! Xx
How neat! I’ve added the shop to my favorites on Etsy.
Oh my, everything you got was so so lovely! I really need to get one of these for myself soon
