In yesterday's post I promised to show you some lovely cards meant to be shared, not only on Valentine's Day, but any special day that you should choose to express your love with a handwritten note.
Here they are, without further ado, and in no particular order! Keep in mind, also, that most of these shops have many more adorable love note worthy cards for sale as well. These are just some of my favorites.
The Black Apple, Emily Martin, has aptly named these the Anytime Valentines. Love notes should be given all of the time, after all! These are the second version of these little note cards that she's made and I just love them. You can find out more about them here.
Pup & Pony has a few really fun love cards that I have fallen for. Particularly this Be Mine octopus card, for - I think - obvious reasons.
Mine mine mine mine! Hmm... Maybe a little creepy? Nah! Do you ever have that weird feeling that you've possibly spelled something wrong once you've written it more than four times in a row? Even though it's a super simple word and you know you've spelled it a million times. Or at least one hundred other times before... I just had that feeling.
Night Owl Paper Goods has a slew of fabulous letterpress as well as wooden cards that are amazing. I love this otter card, but the grammar girl in me is crying, "There are! There are!" All of their 'love cards' are currently on sale at 20% off through February 9th!
Linda & Harriet have an adorable little piggy card. I'm sorry, I know pigs and love don't seem to mix, but Charlotte's Web has caused me to forever have a soft spot in my heart for little piggies.
GRAMKIN paper studio has this little card that is actually specific to Valentine's Day, but I couldn't pass it up because I love it, you could say, for sentimental reasons.This little tour would not be complete if I failed to share this awesome Valentine Card Sampler Pack by Orange Beautiful with you. Lovely letterpressed goodness for so many days beyond Valentine's Day. Truly.
Eight lovely cards...
In true Orange Beautiful beauty...
You really are "gonna love this".Well, I hope you enjoyed that little shopping trip down the "card aisle" with me. Tomorrow I'll be back with three more cards that I just have to hold off on sharing, because they are just that good. Be ready for a fun little giveaway, too :) It'll have to be a quick one in order to get it to you in time, so like I said, be ready!
Blessings, Susan

Very happy to see that some of the companies we carry made it on your list, as your taste is impeccable. Night Owl, Linda & Harriet, and Pup % Pony!
GREAT choices- i'll have to check some of these places out! right up my alley.
i LOOOOVE the pig one. i have to confess, every time i watch "babe" i cry when the farmer says, "that'll do pig." my husband laughs at me every time, too. i can't help it! the pig did good! :)
Those are SO beautiful!! You have great taste!~
I love the Night Owl Paper Goods. There wooden cards are so much fun to send and such cute designs. Thanks for all the great card ideas!
I love The Black Apple cards and have had my eye on them for a while...
That otter card is really cute, but like you, the There's would really get to me.
I just love Letterpress imprints... do you know anything about Letterpress machines?
Arabella

amanda, you, my dear, are too kind!

arabella, all i know about letterpress is that it is beautiful and i love it, but it is an expensive thing to have a taste for. it is one of the things i'd love to learn how to do and acquire everything with which to do it, but that is a day dream sort of dream for me. for now, i'm happy with all of those who do really know about it :)
blessings everybody, susan
Susan, you are so super sweet!
Thank you so much for featuring our otter love card, sharing the good news about our 20% off sale and reminding us all that love cards that can be shared EVERY DAY of the year! After all, why should expressing love be kept to one day of the year?!
We also really appreciate your super great feedback about the grammar! I guess we otter fix that on the next print! ;)
xoxo
