Times have been crazy lately. I don’t think I need to elaborate on that. One thing that’s helped me during the last six months at home is connecting with friends. The folks at Cardthartic wrote to tell me that they’ve been selling three times as many “thinking of you” cards during the last few months. They have some great cards to send love and encouragement.
Cardthartic was founded in 1992 by Jodee Stevens. It remains a woman-owned and managed business. Stevens was inspired to start Cardthartic when her father died. She said, “The condolence cards my family received were awful, but the messages people penned inside were amazing.” Stevens thought, “Why doesn’t anyone publish authentic messages like these? Why don’t I?” Nearly 30 years and millions of cards later, Cardthartic card messages come from friends and family and Cardthartic’s “Cardies.”
Cardthartic has a “For the Times” section with a bunch of great cards to “spread the love not the virus.” They sent me a great assortment of cards. All of the cards are made in the USA with soy ink om recycled paper.
The “Pretty Words” series has blank cards with great sayings “prettied up” by word artist Katie Johnson. I love them – especially “I Miss Your Face” and “You’re my Shero.”
The “Passages” collection has an image with a message inside. Each card has a dedication on the back. They have a variety of messages for all occasions. I’m a big fan.
The “Meaning of Life” Collection has some awesome cards, too. I love the RBG card and message among others.
Cardthartic also has boxed cards, minicards, magnets, art prints and gift cards. You can check everything out here.
