A stash of beautiful and versatile cards can help you write more often to the people you love.

These are our 16 best-selling cards which means two things:

🌎 These are the cards with the most universal messages.

You're likely going to want to send all of these designs to more than one person and for more than one occasion.

 

These 16 cards will:

  • prevent you from last-minute "I need a card" panic 😅
  • help you find the words that people need to hear from you 💕
  • give you a way to shift your day when you need a moment of beauty, creativity, and calm.🌿


These 16 cards are the perfect tool to take a few mindful moments to refocus on what matters most— loving the people in your life while you’re still both here, and leaving behind a legacy once you’re gone. (Which is hopefully many, many years from now! But the best time to begin is today, so let's get started. 💃)


The Essential 16 also comes with a guide brimming with our best tips for cultivating a more life-giving, card-writing routine (which makes a great reference guide to have in your stash!)


We care that our cards are gentle on the earth and support fair wages, so we source our paper, envelopes, and printing all from Wisconsin, where our tiny studio is based (and happens to be a paper capital). Locally sourcing our products reduces our carbon footprint and shipping costs, so you can know that your dollars are doing the best in the world that they can.

 

P.S. The Essential 16 is our best deal. Save $32 when you buy our best-selling 16—that's the same as getting 5 free cards!

P.P.S If you sign up for our newsletter (one that people genuinely adore!) as a welcome gift, we'll pop 3 more cards into your first purchase! 🥳

Excellent Experience!

I am very pleased and impressed by the story behind Tiny & Snail, their advertising, customer service, quality of their products, and prompt fulfillment. I ordered 2 sets to get a discount, and the cost per card is much cheaper than store bought cards. The quality and uniqueness of the cards beats traditional cards, cards, too. I love having this supply on hand for special loved ones.
