What can I say… I love Sugar Paper!  Chelsea Shukov and Jamie Grobecker, co-founders and style mavens of Sugar Paper are amazing talents.  They set the National Stationery Show abuzz this past May when they launched their fabulous line of custom stationery, invitations and gorgeous boxed goods to the market, previously only sold at their [...]
