If you follow us on Instagram you may have seen Lolly put out a request recently to all stationers to share their Christmas wares. We were absolutely inundated with beautiful and unique paperie from some amazing independent resellers. There’s clearly never been a better time to send snail mail (well if the recipient lives this side of the world) so we’ve rounded up our favourites in our Christmas card edit with a few ideas to display them too.
The Brights
If you like to send bold and bright then look no further than our edit of colourful cards. How sweet do they look nestled amongst a garland too?
- Warmer Winter Wishes | Peggy & Kate | Mixed Pack £10
- Christmas is the time… | The Word Fair | £2
- Nutcracker | Jade Fisher | £3.50
- Happy Christmas To My Husband (various designs available) | Paper Fudge | £2.50
- Capture & Cherish Cards | Paperknots | £2.50
The Botanicals
As you know, botanicals are so hot right now, and palm print makes a very trendy move away from the more traditional cards. 
- Holly Happy Christmas | Peggy & Kate | Mixed pack £10
- Noel Tree and Peace on Earth | Katie Housley | £3
- Tropical print with foil detail. Amazing wrapping paper and telegram cards also available | Tuppence Collective | Mixed pack £20
The Rustic
Kraft, woodland or wooden, nothing sums up Christmas more for me.
- Watercolour Merry Christmas Fir Cone | Little Lights Invites | £1.50
- Wooden Reindeer | Juniper Press
- Filthy Animal | Abbie Worton Design | £2
- Festive Bear Hugs | Juniper Press | £3
- Wonderful Time | Studio Seed | Mixed box £7.95
The Sparkly
What could be more festive than a sprinkling of sparkle and shimmer? Dot a few glittery baubles along your mantlepiece to keep up the sparkly theme.
- All I Want For Christmas Is You | Paper Fudge | £2.75
- Copper Foil Stars | Little Star by Nothing But Lovely | £3.95
- Peace | Katie Housley | £3.25
- Christmas Sparkle Bauble and Most Wonderful Time | Studio Seed | From £3.50
The Sweetest Slogan
It’s near enough impossible to pick a favourite from this gorgeous and fun selection. We’ve strung these beauties on a HomeSense pompom garland with little pegs which is a good way to display a lot of cards if you’re tight on space.
- Gingle All The Way and Prosecco Is For Life | The Chalk Spot | £1.89
- Bah Humpug & Schnauzer ’bout it | Paperknots | Mixed pack £6.50
- The Most Wonderful Time | Abbie Worton Design | £2
- Baby It’s Bloody Freezing Outside | Bonnie Blackbird
See. So hard to pick a favourite! So much gorgeousness to drop in the post box. Which cards will you be sending this year?
Charity cards. All the way. You can find some absolutely stunning ones that are for a great cause, and that’s what matters to me most. I have long been a supporter of Survival who advocate for indigenous communities and this year they have gorgeous photographic cards featuring people of the Arctic and tundra.

What beautiful cards! I’ve certainly made some more discoveries, love the Christmas pudding by Studio Seed and the lovely Nutcracker card by Jade Fisher. My recent find has been Katie Cardew Illustrations

Such a nice way to support small businesses too
We love Katie Cardew too! x
These are great – I particularly love the sparkly selection and the Prosecco is for life one (totally in line with my philosophy)!! I am sitting here listening to Christmas tunes as I work from home so this is all putting me firmly in the Christmas spirit!! xx
Glad we’ve got you in the Christmas spirit Emma! x
Lovely cards Lauren – I just ordered two for my best friends from Bonnie Blackbird on your recommendation – so thanks for the ideas http://www.notonthehighstreet.com/bonnieblackbird/product/i-m-dreaming-of-a-white-wine-christmas-funny-card. Nice to support the smaller retailers as well isn’t it 🙂
Love those ones Nicola! Yep, always lovely to support shopping small x
