BIG BOOK 2020


800.814.8145 FAX 877.385.2050 SALES@CARDTHARTIC.COM

Wouldn’t you love to have been with amazing travel photographer David Lazar when he spotted the little band of brothers now playing their way across our cover? From his home base in Australia, David shared with us that it was three years ago, early morning on the coast of Vietnam, when he saw the kids on a sand dune. As he described, “With basic housing and toys being simple things such as the bike tires you see in this shot, they live life mostly outdoors, playing and enjoying the natural world.” Knowing our Big Books are referenced again and again throughout the year, we choose cover photos that make us feel good every time we look at them. We loved this one for its sense of calm, and how it shows us that we can each be in our own thoughts, yet together enjoy the simple promise of a new day. Through the joys and challenges of 2020, let's remember that we can access this same sense of peace and promise any time just by quieting our minds and honoring our emotions (and how much easier that is to write than to do!) Here’s to us all happily rolling along this year, doing what we Cardies do ... making the world a better place, one card, one kindness at a time.

PLAYING FAVORITES Getting a card in the mail means much, much more than a phone call or a text — it’s neat and rare! — and the people who receive the cards I send say they love them. I think it’s just so neat to hear back from someone with a “Thank you for my card!” While it would be very hard to pick a favorite — very hard! — a card that I've loved from the first time I read it, and still smile every time I see it, is #93748. It shows kids floating in the pool, with their legs up over the side. The picture is so cool, and we all can remember doing that very thing in our younger years!

WILD BIRDS UNLIMITED RETAIL PARTNER IN GREENVILLE, SC

Inside each of us is a younger us wondering ~

As Cardthartic’s South Carolina Rep, it’s been gratifying to help Wild Birds Unlimited co-owners Abbie Pressley and Melanie Moore-Shaw offer cards their customers really love ... and help the mother/daughter team grow their business. The two had discovered Cardthartic on their own in July 2012 at the annual supplier show WBU hosts for its 340 store franchisees. Cardthartic loves to exhibit there, as we’ve found WBU owner/operators to be such nice, passionate, nature-loving folks. Melanie originally ordered just enough cards to fill a little 16-pocket counter spinner — half-dozens of 16 different designs — but could soon tell that offering a larger selection would increase sales.

“Just how did this happen and when?!?!” Wishing You a Happy Birthday

“Our customers love Cardthartic cards because they are so simple and really touch hearts. And I believe one of the reasons they do so well for us is Ann’s great service. She always picks just the right designs for our store.”

In the years since, customer demand for Cardthartic has only continued to grow — some customers come to the store just to purchase the cards alone. We tried a 64-pocket floor spinner for awhile and, two years ago, Melanie agreed it was time for a 96. Promising to take the 64-pocket spinner back on my next visit, when I went to pick it up, Melanie asked if she could hold on to it instead, in the event they’d need it in the future. As it turns out, with the 96-pocket spinner in place, this Wild Birds store really, really started selling cards! Melanie brought the 64-pocket out of storage and added corner pockets to it and the 96 both so, now — taking up just four-square feet of valuable retail space — her customers have the choice of 224 Cardthartic designs! And have I mentioned she also carries magnets? :)

MINICARDS WITH MIGHTY MESSAGES

Nick Facchina, manager of The Flower Loft in Wilmington, IL, approached our Sales Director Reet Rawdin in our booth at Las Vegas Market last year. “When our customers order flowers from us, whether in person or by phone,” Nick explained, “we ask, ‘What would you like to say in the card?’ And you know what we hear most often? ‘I don’t know. You write something!’ “Cardthartic cards always say just the right thing,” Nick maintained, “So if you were to make an enclosure-card size with those perfect words on them, we could just grab one and sign the customer’s name. Everybody’s happy.” Done! Thank you, Nick, for asking for what you need and, in so doing, ensuring easy smiles far and wide.

A CARD FOR EVERYONE THANK YOU • GOING AWAY

May good fortune and good memories ...

As my husband can tell you, I can come out of a store with 25 cards and go to the next store and get 25 more. Some people have a card box, I have three and they are all full! When I walked into the Cubby Hole in Charlotte, NC, and saw they had a new display of Cardthartic cards, I loved every one and could think of someone for each. I placed my first online order after I returned to Southern Nest in Indian Land, SC, to get more of the Gratitude Journal cards and found that they had not yet ordered more. I thought, “Well, I need to find them somewhere!” which led me to go online looking for y’all.

carry you far. You will be missed!

GA 93958

TOP SELLER

To say we don’t want to lose you ...

One of my favorite cards is the Rocking Chair birthday because it’s perfect for the group of friends I went to church camp with. From 6th-12th grade, we were best friends — and then came college, weddings, kids. While I still sent them cards for birthdays and anniversaries, we had not seen each other for 25 years. I wrote each of them about returning to the church camp for a little reunion, and they all thought it was a great idea. We had a wonderful time, and now get together every other year at a different location. One evening during the initial reunion, they all remarked that, if it hadn’t been for me keeping in touch with them all those years, the reunion would never have happened. Especially in this day and time when people are feeling so disconnected and isolated, cards say, “Someone is thinking about me! I am special to that person.” It was very gratifying to recently hear from a friend, “I was having an awful time and walked out to the mailbox and there sat your card. It was like you knew I needed a friend and, even though you were miles away, there you were!” ~ CARDIE CONNIE MELE

doesn’t begin to cover it. Good luck and farewell.

GRIEF SUPPORT

Grieving never really ends ...

I use a lot of sympathy cards because I am a trust and estate lawyer and so always looking at final moments, and giving comfort and solace and tissues. It is a privilege to be able to do this – an honor really. Generally, when I buy your cards, I don’t necessarily have anyone in mind … I have past experiences that will become future moments of need. Those needs are squarely in mind as I look through all you offer. Last week I bought many cards and, among them, was the Adirondack Loveseat with the words: “Some people are missed more than words can say.” So heartfelt …

That very card was face-up on my desk this morning when a client’s daughter walked into my office. She is successor trustee for her parents, a couple that I worked with over the years, a couple I loved though only knew through the work I did for them. When the daughter told me that Mom had died on June 26th, I told her how sorry I was — I knew Mom had been ailing in memory, but Dad was taking good care of her. I asked about the funeral and how Dad was taking it after 70 years of marriage, and was told the funeral was very touching. “It was held on July 2nd,” she said, “and Dad died July 3rd.” (Sharp intake of breath on my part.) “Dad just couldn’t live without Mom and, after her death, he just lost the air that he breathed.” Wow … what does that say about the power of love?! That couple loved to the absolute fullest, and I wanted a way to let their children know that all of us saw that love and celebrated it. So it seemed meant for me to send them the Adirondack Loveseat, now empty but so recently full of life. In truth, it expressed my feelings far better than I possibly could have. Yes, “Some people are missed more than words can say.” ~ C A R D I E PA I G E B A K E R

When my grandfather said we needed to have a talk — I would have been 48 at the time — we sat down together and I saw a small teardrop starting to well up in the corner of his eye. It was the first time I had ever seen this ... he was always so happy! As I sat across the table from him, he was oh-so-serious. He said, “You know I am not going to live forever,” and I replied, “Oh yes you are!” and started to get up. In a firm voice he said, “Sit down.” It stopped me in my tracks. I realized he was very serious and had something very important he wanted to tell me, so I sheepishly sat back down. He repeated that he wasn’t going to live forever and he had something he wanted to give me. He handed me a small bronze statue of an owl that he bought for a dime at the Salvation Army, where he always stopped on his way home from work. As I reached out to take it, he grabbed my hand and said, “This is for you, and I want you to put it somewhere in your bedroom so you will see it every night before you go to sleep. Look at it and remember … owl always be watching over you.” ~ CARDIE NORENE MOSS

BEAUTIFUL MESSENGER As much as we love our top-selling dragonfly, we’re still amazed by how much it is loved by so many! The art and message we first printed on a support & encouragement card is now on boxed notes, art prints and magnets, too. Seven years after Daniel Miller lost his beloved wife, he emailed us. “When Deb passed away, I received much support from many people, and received an amazing number of cards. One of them was your beautiful dragonfly. “It was pretty surreal to receive that card, given Deb’s love of dragonflies,” he wrote. “She wore clothing depicting dragonflies, and had many pieces of dragonfly jewelry. As a tribute to Deb’s courageous life, and in the spirit of creating an enduring legacy to her commitment to serving others, our family raised the funds to renovate the Oncology Family Waiting Room at the CarolinaEast Medical Center in New Bern, NC. “We are publishing a book on Deb’s memorial project, and it seems only fitting to reach out for your permission to use the beautiful dragonfly on the book cover. Whenever we see a dragonfly, we know Deb is here, continuing to help others, always with us on earth.”

OXENDALE’S MARKET RETAIL PARTNER SERVING MINNEAP OLIS & ST PAUL , MN SUPPORT & ENCOURAGEMENT

The fun, inviting atmosphere of the state-of-the-art Oxendale’s Market represents a fresh approach to grocery shopping. Serving the local communities of the Minneapolis metro area, Oxendale’s opened its doors in 2007 and now has stores in three locations. Louise Oxendale is Director of Gifts and Cards, and also serves as the company’s CFO. She proudly tells customers, “Oxendale is a true example of what ‘local’ means. We live here, shop here and are dedicated to these neighborhoods we call home.” As part of meeting her customers’ needs, Louise ensures that the stores’ greeting card aisles are well-stocked. “We have such a variety of customers, that we really need to offer a variety of lines. Carrying all four Cardthartic lines helps us do that.

Cardthartic Rep Betsy Rockwell (left) with Louise Oxendale

“Cards help our customers convey their feelings — love, humor, and joy — and those customers consistently tell us they’re grateful for the wonderful selection we carry. What I most love about selling cards is encountering customers in the card aisle laughing while reading a card, or sometimes they’re crying. Cardthartic makes it easy for our customers to let others know they’re thinking of them.” Louise says she’s grateful to have Cardthartic Rep Betsy Rockwell help her keep Oxendale’s card selection fresh and new. “Betsy is absolutely fantastic to work with. She approaches each of our stores with a thoughtful card selection that reflects each neighborhood’s characteristics. She is always tuned into what is going on, and her selection of cards reflects that.” Louise has so much wisdom to share with all our Retail Partners, and wonderful advice for Cardies everywhere! “Be patient and make deliberate decisions,” Louise says. “Nothing happens as quickly as you initially envision.”

GIFTED RETAIL PARTNER IN LAKE FOREST, IL

“Being a graphic designer as well as a store owner, Pretty Words appealed to me immediately,” says Megan Stockton, owner of Gifted on Chicago’s North Shore. “The words are literally pretty and designs graphically interesting, so the cards are naturally very engaging. “Because my customers already loved Cardthartic, it was easy to add the fresh look that Pretty Words represents. I ordered the line when it was introduced in January ’19, and have reordered at least every other month since. Customers say, ‘Oooh, I really like how these cards feel.’ And ‘I can think of four people I can send this to.’ As soon as I saw how well the cards were doing, I added magnets and boxed notes, too. We have wonderfully loyal customers who come to Gifted to buy cards, and we love hearing them say that’s because, ‘You have the best!’”
