Postcards from Melbourne stationery label Ask Alice.

I always feel a bit dumb when I discover some local designer or business that has probably been around forever and I should definitely already know about. Latest example - these super cute paper goods from Melbourne-based label Ask Alice.

All Ask Alice products are printed in Melbourne on recycled paper... the illustrations are so freaking CUTE, and the range include postcards, giftcards, notebooks and gift tags. You can buy them online here... and I am pretty sure I have also seen them at Little Sparrow in Caulfield!? Spotted any other stockists? Let me know!
