Blogs abound (or, our greeting cards don’t suck!)
Over the past two years our greeting card line has quickly (and very unexpectedly) become the focus of our business (example: in the last 30 days it has been calculated that we printed more than 35,000 cards). It’s taken a whole lot of investment in time and money, but the recognition for our unique & irreverent line has finally come our way. Here are some blogs that have happened about our greeting line in the last two months and have kept us very busy filling orders:
Daily Candy
Design Sponge 1
Design Sponge 2
Mixed Plate
