In our modern culture of emails and IMs, there’s still nothing that pleases us more than a beautiful piece of stationery. Here are four emerging designers creating wonderfully unique paper goods:

O’Riley Designs offers unique invitations, notecards and announcements from interesting brands not typically found on the shelf. We fell in love with the Paper Prince purse note cards which come in several chic handbag designs. Each set of 10 comes with 23 add on tags that hang from a chain with messages including "thank you", "happy birthday" and "best wishes".

Good on Paper is based on the creative ambition of Lisa Wong Jackson, a self-taught graphic designer in Berkeley, CA. In addition to her custom wedding invitations and designs, her unique stationery line includes hand screenprinted notecards, little books (birthday books, shopping books, gift giving books), note pads, sticky notes sets, as well as a line of cards printed on high quality recycled paper using vegetable-based inks. Her clean and simple designs are inspired by nature, music, organic designs, animals, line drawings, and Pixel, her beloved Boston Terrier.
