10 ways to brighten someone’s day with a card

We’ve been getting loads of fantastic cards in recently… in fact you can virtually browse some of the selections on the very side bar of this blog —>

Like Avanti …they have mastered the hilarious animal card (and did you know they are based in Detroit?)

This one says, "Did you know how fast you were going over that hill?" (this one is going to my dad in September)

And Dolly Mama always puts a silly spin on things. Inside it reads, "I enjoy every minute of it!  Have a wild & crazy birthday"

Laini’s Ladies are a card and gift in one because the fanciful center piece is also an ornament of sorts.

Kathleen Taylor’s quirky characters have a subtle way of telling it like it is.

Quoteable cards – there’s always a number of them that speak to my heart.  I love this quote – what  a great reminder to have on my bulletin board.

Then there’s the always funny, Mina Lee

And the heartfelt Curly Girl. ahhh… the colors, saying, composition – love everything about this design.

I have to say there is something very special about getting a card in the mail just because.  A hand addressed envelope amidst the stack of bills and other offers always makes my heart smile. 

And what’s even more exciting is finding a surprise goody inside the card like…

1. skeleton key covers $6.50 2. make a wish token $2.00 3. bath tea $3.50 4. artsy bookmark $6.00 5. million dollar bill $1.00 6. make a wish necklace $24.50 7. glass nail file $8.50 8. pocket peeper $12.50 9. rare bird magnet $5.00 10. funny luggage tags $12.50

Hmmmm… who could I surprise this August?  It’s fun to spread a little unexpected joy around.

All the card styles are available at our Berkley & Rochester locations (except Avanti is only at Berkley)
