You Can't Miss: Stunning Valentine's Cards

This week's favorite post from Eye Magazine's blog is about an artist's take on the Valentine. Canadian designer Marion Bantjes is famous for her laser-cut designs, hand-drawn scripts, and overall beautiful details.

Here's an excerpt from a past Eye Magazine interview with Bantjes:

"Design magazines don’t receive Valentine’s Day cards as a rule. Sure, we get plenty of Christmas cards. And even more New Year’s cards and fancy calendars, from all those design studios who didn’t quite hit their Christmas deadline. But 14 February always seemed too . . . arbitrary, too commercialised and/or too personal. Until Marian Bantjes came along."

These cards even impress those at a design magazine who probably have a low threshold for the cliche and cheesy, so you know they have to be well-executed. Check out Bantjes' site for more.
