Win It: Courtney Khail Stationery and Design.
The uber-talented and sweet Courtney Khail emailed me last week to share her line of stationery and invitations and I fell. Hard. I was even more thrilled when she agreed to do a giveaway of the stationery set of your choice!
Courtney Khail Stationery and Design was born when Courtney herself was attempting to choose invitations for her own wedding. Needless to say, nothing sufficed and she took matters into her own hands! Each 100% cotton card combines hand drawn illustrations, printmaking, and watercolor to produce an individual hand painted work of art where no two are exactly the same. I absolutely love that.
So here are the deets. Visit Courtney Khail Stationery and Design, then comment back here with which stationery set you’d like to win and why. The contest will close next Monday, March 30th at noon CST. (This contest is only open to those living in the U.S.) A winner will be chosen randomly once the contest closes. Good luck!

March 23, 2009 at 6:03 pmI would love the garden rose stationery. It would be beautiful for thank you cards for our wedding, which is being held in the local botanic gardens.
Jenn
March 23, 2009 at 6:13 pmThe hydrangea stationary would win hands down at my house. I used blue hydrangeas at my wedding as the main flower, and now every time I see one, it brings back floods of memories of that day. It would inspire me to write pretty notes to wonderful people on such beautiful stationary.

March 23, 2009 at 6:16 pmThe Zinnia is my favorite… Oooh, I HOPE I WIN!!!
Who Sees the Seven
March 23, 2009 at 6:21 pmOh wow! These are gorgeous! I would be up for the Zinnia if I were awarded the prize of beautiful free card from an uber-talented artist. I think I’d frame it and place it somewhere in our apartment where a little piece of beauty might shine!
***PS. I am clearly on a post-gym rush. That was an obscene amount of adjectives I just used.

March 23, 2009 at 7:04 pmI’d say for every one in 10,000 blog posts I read, I’m inspired enough by an artist to put their link on my blog. I was instantly in love with Courtney’s watercolors and style so she’s now linked 🙂 My favorite set is the Zinnias.

Courtney
March 23, 2009 at 10:33 pmTough call. They are all lovely, and I am especially taken with the Peony and the Zinnia. Peonies are one of my favorite flowers, and Zinnias are always so colorful and cheerful. Hmmm, well, colorful and cheerful sounds like something I could use right now, so I suppose Zinnia it is.
Sara Christine
March 23, 2009 at 10:33 pmI am all about the hydrangea. Love the shapes and soft purples. Great giveaway!
Cait
March 23, 2009 at 11:39 pmI love the peony – the colors are beautiful and I love how soft the watercolor looks. I think this would look great framed and hung in a cute vintage metallic frame.

LindaSonia
March 24, 2009 at 1:42 amThese are gorgeous – the technique looks simple yet soo effective. love them all, but the garden rose is probably my favorite just because I can never have enough roses. Love roses, but the peony is an awful close second. LindaSonia
Candace
March 24, 2009 at 2:24 amThe evergreen would be perfect coming from this Montana girl…however they are all so beautiful it’s tough to choose! Peony, Zinnia, any would make my day. 🙂

Katie
March 26, 2009 at 4:51 pmI especially love the hydrangea set. I love how carefully made they are and really appreciate all the time and work that went into making them. These would be perfect to write letters to my 96 year old grandmother who lives alone. She only has the mail to look forward to and loves flowers. I really think she would love to receive these.

lmbennet

Elana
March 26, 2009 at 5:52 pmThese are incredibly gorgeous! I’ve never ever in my life really noticed flowers (beyond “oooh pretty!) or even known which are which until recently. The Zinnea is gorgeous and reminds me of my new found love of flowers (and the inspiration to be drawn from them).

Leah
March 27, 2009 at 2:50 pmI’d go for the Evergreen – I live in Washington, and I love seeing all of the conifers with their green needles and the soft crunch of fallen needles underfoot.
Hannah
March 27, 2009 at 3:27 pmSO lovely!
Kate
March 27, 2009 at 3:31 pmMy grandparents always had peonies outside the front door to the house so I am rather partial…
Michelle
March 27, 2009 at 3:37 pmI choose the evergreen stationary, not only because it is lovely, but also in honor of the fact that we a re getting married at a place called the “Evergreen Mansion” this year!
Liz M.
March 27, 2009 at 3:48 pmPeony is so beautiful, and matches my wedding colors (pinks and oranges). These would make beautiful thank you cards for shower gifts.

EmilyAnn
March 27, 2009 at 4:24 pmThese are all absolutely gorgeous! I think the zinnia wins for me though.
SweetAdelineXO
March 27, 2009 at 4:31 pmThe bold graphic print of the Zinnia is so striking. It doesn’t hurt that it has bits of all my favorite colors.

jepnet
March 27, 2009 at 6:58 pmThe Hydrangea stationary is lovely. I believe a handwritten note is an everyday treasure, and the paper it is written on should be a treasure, as well.
Jordyn
March 27, 2009 at 7:08 pmi would most definitely like to win the peony stationary. i just got engaged last week and have had so many decisions to make already. one is easy, i want peonies, and pretty paper. these are perfect.

Leika
March 28, 2009 at 10:21 pmThey’re all so beautiful! I think I like the hydrangea the best, though…we’re having an evening wedding, and hydrangeas wouldn’t stand up to the late afternoon sun during the photos, so I picked different flowers, but I’d love to have a set of note cards to remind me of my first choice!
StrawberryJamFactory
March 29, 2009 at 12:33 amI would love to have the Zinnia. It is very bold yet simple at the same time.
troe
March 29, 2009 at 6:41 amthey are all amazing! i can’t believe i’d never found these before! i really love the zinnia ones, they remind me of my mom and they way she always plants zinnias in her garden to make the vegetable plants look prettier!

March 29, 2009 at 8:48 amZinnia
“Z” is for Zellars, my first last name
“I” is for impeccable beauty, now and always
“N” is for nuances, unique but one and the same
“N” is for nest, naturally settled
“I’ is for idyllic life, when two become one
“A” is for affection, the emotional place of love
The Zinnias just fit us.
Deborah Robertson
March 29, 2009 at 12:52 pmBeautiful! Garden Rose is my absolute favorite. It is so hard to choose; they are all wonderful. I love roses and this beautiful design would make my day. I would use them to send notes to my favorite people. My sisters especially would appreciate a little note on this beautiful stationary. big hug, deborah
Emily
March 29, 2009 at 3:10 pmI love the evergreen.
CaraBella
March 29, 2009 at 3:14 pmThe Peony stationary is seriously lovely — i heart the feminine lines, the bright but feminine colors and how it’s off-set from the lines — and who doesn’t want to own *lovely lovely* things? I’d most definitely use this to drop a note to my husband’s aunt, who loves gardening + is approaching, I’ll say, an important one year anniversary. Thanks!
AO
March 29, 2009 at 8:42 pmI’d love hydrangea! The design and colors are beautiful and they perfectly complement our color scheme — we’ll have varying shades of purple hydrangeas in stone urns at the wedding! Gorgeous!
Mona
March 30, 2009 at 12:35 amZinnia. Because it’s awesome.
Jim Whatley
March 30, 2009 at 1:30 amI would love a custom of some of my wife’s artwork.
A Work in Progress
March 30, 2009 at 1:38 amThey’re all absolutely gorgeous, but the hydrangeas are the same shade as the ones I’m hoping to get for my wedding next fall, it just hit me how much emotion is wrapped up in flowers. I would love to be able to send them to people as either thank-yous or “just because”s. All of them are lovely, but the hydrangeas just make me happiest.
Shannon H
March 30, 2009 at 1:53 amCourtney’s stuff is great but I love love love the peony stationary!

Pebble
March 30, 2009 at 2:29 pmI adore the simplicity of the hydrangeas. I love the colours of the maple, and the fact it reminds me of home and Canada, but I am in love with the hydrangeas and the beauty of them.
Emily O.
March 30, 2009 at 3:41 pmIt is hard to pick a fav! But I love the hydrangea set and I would use it for something related to my upcoming wedding, which is garden flower inspired… Thanks!!
