How do we feel about Once More With Love?! Well, it started as a crush (at Planner Con in SF!) and now, with our FOURTH collab, has turned into a full-blown love affair! We literally cannot get enough of Margaret (Marg) Ying’s super incredible designs!
Marg is a mega-talented illustrator and bada$$ businesswoman - check out her Instagram for some seriously sweet and cheeky designs @oncemorewithlove. Her adorable little munchkin creations are so relatable. And her sticky notes are next-level amazing (and honestly, hilarious, and so ding dang clever)!
Pipsticks + Once More With Love Collab
The definition of “self-care” has gotten way off course in the last few years (expensive spa treatments are NOT the only good thing we can do for ourselves!)! Marg has created the sweetest and gentlest self-care sheet for our Pro pack this month - her munchkins remind us to laugh, treat ourselves, and hydrate. The first time I saw it, it brought a huge smile to my face.
Pipsticks + Once More With Love Giveaway
To kick off the collab, we’re doing a huge giveaway with loads of fun products from the Once More With Love shop + a Pipsticks gift card – worth over $250!
