2012 Trend Alert: Make someone's day, send a card the old fashion way!





Even in this digital age, there is no denying the joy one feels when receiving a handwritten card.  The United States Postal Service gets teased by being called names, like 'snail mail', but honestly - who doesn't love opening their mailbox to find a handwritten card?  We hear you, you love email and texting, but sometimes a text just will NOT do!  Making communication personal again is topping the list of 2012's hottest trends and Etsy has you covered!  Put that iphone down + pick up a pen - don't know where to start?  We're here to help! 


We've selected a sampling of precious cards from 4 of our favorite Etsy shops.  Do you love the look, feel and texture of letterpress?  Engage your recipient, nothing compares to the lovely weight + surface of letterpress.  How about a one of a kind mono-printed card for a one of a kind gal pal?  You'll make her feel very special.  What about the lush floral imagery of delicate flowers?  A great way to brighten any day with color + the natural beauty of nature.  Look no further - we make shopping for that perfect card on Etsy super easy!  So - take your pick, get your pen ready and make someone's day!
