Cards & Postcards News

I will no longer be selling cards in my own shop, once current stocks sell out, but I’m working on making all the designs – and many, many more! – available as cards and postcards through my print-on-demand stores.

While cards have been a big part of my shop since the very beginning, it’s no longer a profitable product . You can buy cards for pennies on the high street and at the big online sites, you can choose different sizes, personalise them, and have cards sent directly to the recipient.

I can do that via print on demand though and, as an extra bonus, you can order anywhere in the world without international shipping, customs fees. tariffs etc. Here’s all the options at the moment:

  • Zazzle (global) – 40+ designs, 2 sizes, editable text, add a message.
  • Redbubble (global) – 100+ designs, 2 sizes, multi-buy discounts.
  • Thortful (UK) –  20 designs, 2 sizes, add a message, gift options, multi-buy discounts.

You can still buy cards from my own shop too, while stocks last. Most of them are 25% off at the moment in the Summer Sale – use the code AUGUST25SALE at checkout.

I’m still busy uploading and updating designs so there will be more on Thortful & Redbubble over the next week or 2 and then I will create a full info page on my shop. If there’s a card design you want that isn’t available on one or all of my shops, email me and I’ll bump it to the top of the list.
