5 Ways to Make Your Greeting Card Unforgettable

There's something magical about receiving a physical greeting card in our digital age. Here's how to make yours truly special.

1. Start with the Right Card

The design should match the recipient's personality. An outdoor enthusiast? Choose a nature-inspired design. A city lover? Something architectural might resonate more.

2. Write from the Heart

Skip the generic messages. Instead:

  • Share a specific memory you cherish
  • Mention something you admire about them
  • Look forward to something you'll do together

3. Use Quality Paper

When printing at home, the paper makes all the difference. Opt for:

  • 65-110 lb cardstock for a substantial feel
  • Matte finish for easy writing
  • Recycled paper for eco-conscious recipients

4. Add a Personal Touch

Consider including:

  • A pressed flower or leaf
  • A small photo
  • A hand-drawn doodle
  • A spritz of your signature scent

5. Mind the Presentation

How you deliver it matters:

  • Use a quality envelope
  • Add a wax seal for special occasions
  • Hand-deliver when possible
