Sales Handle: In the tradition of such best-selling lines as Sunblooms, Jill Bliss, and Densyse Schmidt's Dots and Jots, the stationery designs of New York City-based artist Yana Beylinson feature bright, inviting floral art full of color and good cheer. We are debuting the Garden Blossoms line with three gorgeous titles, perfect for a wide array of stationery-buyers: a flexi journal, a notecard book and set of fold and mail stationery. Floral Notecards remain a perennial best seller for Chronicle. The Native Flowers Notecard book has grossed over 14,000 copies; Deborah Schenck's Blossoms has sold over 244,000. Yana's colorful, traditionally pretty designs will appeal to both urban/younger buyers and more traditional stationery consumers. Yana is an up-and-coming designer with a growing career. Her style is very of-the-moment in the best possible way.
