Sunday Magazine - November 7th 2010

The silly season is fast approaching, so why not make the old snail mail the new trend this Xmas and get organised by inviting your work colleagues, family & friends to a fun filled xmas gathering!  Think back to when you last received a black envelope in the mail, maybe never, so get to it and be the first to put that smile on the dial of your postbox awaiting friends...

Thanks to the editors of the Sunday Magazine, we are so grateful & proud that you included our Save the Date invite in your trend section (in the first few pages I might add), thanks for supporting an Australian Handmade Paper Products company. 

Belles & Whiselles supports Ava's Tea Party

How can you say no, when you receive an email from a very supportive retailer Details Details asking you to participate in a beauty-ful project to  help celebrate & honour the life of Ava Rosemeyer - a 3 year old girl that went back to heaven way too young...  We were delighted to be invited as one of Australia’s leading children’s stationery designers to contribute a limited edition `Tea Party’ invitation in our own unique individual style to remember little Ava on her birthday each year in August.   

So where did we start.... Having read and followed the story that Ava’s Mum, Sheyne had written on her blog, we were inspired by Ava’s dreams & wishes to play tea parties, so we tapped into our own childhoods and reminisced about what we loved to eat & drink at our tea parties and came up with our Smartie Party invite.  Every cupcake in our design is unique just like every special little girl. Available for a limited time only - July to September 2010, our limited edition printable invites are available from Details Details and 100% of the sales goes to Paradise Kids – helping support families suffering illness and loss.

Supporting charities is what we love doing, being able to give something back to our supporters and the community who are less fortunate that us.  Another one of our passions. 

Frankie - July 10

"Scribbling down a handwritten note and slipping under someone's door, pillow, cup of tea or open window is one of those simple little things that makes you feel all warm and fuzzy inside, and probably makes the recipient love you that little bit extra. If you love writing notes as much as we love getting them, head over to Belles and Whiselles where you are sure to find lots and lots of handmade paper goodies fit for any occasion, or no occasion at all."
Written by Holly McCauley 

Thanks Frankie for such a great write up. We love the fact you agree with us that a special occasion is not the only time to share the love, bring a smile to someones face or set them off in peels of laughter.

The items featured on the Frankie Blog (from left to right) are 1. Candy Bath, a baby shower invite made up of tiny little candy coloured icons. 2. Pig Winkle, a blank card that has been quite popular for your special valentine or for a quirky couple getting married. 3. Velvet Cushion, a blank card that was inspired by beautiful embroidery which is just perfect for the person who loves deep colours and patterns. 4. Bed Breakfast, a blank card just perfect to say thanks to mum on Mothers Day or for reminding your partner that you love brekky in bed... hint hint.
