my girls went off to camp this past weekend. they love their summer home away from home! i've been stalking the website for pictures as soon as they're supposed to be up the past few nights. i love catching the little glimpses of them as they enjoy their activities. so far, i've mostly seen the 9th grader, but i know the 7th grader made it there too, because she's in a cabin pic from invasion day. fingers crossed she pops up in a few shots tomorrow!! this is year 5 and 7 at camp for them, so we're pretty set on crafty camp items. but there are plenty of new campers around town that come calling for stationery and accompaniments like those i created for them. the decorated clipboard box is always a popular request...
this box is particarly great because it has pockets to organize stationery, envelopes, address labels, and stamps, as well as compartments for pens and other treasures. the big open space is perfect for drawing paper, markers, and the dreaded summer reading. everything you need for quiet time can be tucked right inside, easy to grab on the way up to your bunk. and then it's a desk to write on, too!
i get a variety of requests when it comes to stationery and box design. these three were designed to match the green cove logo, with trees, mountains, and a lake. peace, love, sunshine, and sailing are often popular camp related motifs as well. the daisies above are similar to the ones i created for my girls way back when, but in colors chosen by this particular camper to coordinate with the stationery she also chose. of course, personalization is a fun must! i hope these little campers are writing lots of letters. i should get a couple any day now myself...
fingers crossed!
