STATIONERY: The blank cards from Animalia Design feature shots of animals from all over the world in personal, vaguely human poses. Proceeds from the recycled-paper cards, created by two Portland sisters in 2012 and now in their fifth series, partially benefit the Oregon Zoo Foundation and the Portland Audubon Society. So far the pair has sold nearly 18,000 cards. “We like the idea of notecards, because they get passed on,” says Gretchen Culp. “Once you know these animals, you start to care.” $14.95 per set
