Peronalized Stationary

I've decided I want personalized stationary. I've been perusing Fine Stationary to try and find the one design that screams my name. Here are some of the possibilities:











I think I'm leaning more towards something like this from Simply Silhouettes:




(I love silhouettes! Stonewall and I used our silhouettes as a general theme throughout our wedding. They were on our invitations, postage stamps, the programs, several other stationary things we had, on cookies, and (my favorite part) rather than use a wedding cake topper, we had a sugar sheet made with our silhouettes and put it on the side of the cake. (Before it looks like I jumped on a bandwagon since silhouettes are so popular right now, I would like say that I used them before they become super popular. I started the bandwagon.))

This is a hard decision. Granted, stationary is kind of frivolous, but choosing which one you want is hard. Every time I send out a Thank-You, or some other type of correspondence, what is on the stationary is the first impression the receiver will have of me. For my sister-in-law's birthday, I got her this stationary:


This is just so her! She loves pineapples and she's fun and good-natured. I know me better than her, but I don't know which stationary has me written all over it.

I did, however, find the cards I'm going to order as thank-you cards for my baby shower:



The nursery theme is monkeys, so this screams my baby's name (even if I haven't figured out what that is yet).

Oh, thank you! I've missed it first time. It's a nice dress. I think I will go with dark colors, navy or maybe even black. :) btw... hope you will find the best one.

i just love stationary! I love the monkey one! I'm kinda boring though and I tend to go for nice monogramed initials... nothing to exciting.

Precious!!! I am so old-fashioned, I love traditional monograms myself. But I always admire people who have their own personal flair! I'd go with the silhouette especially if it means something to you!
